Qian Hao, a female journalist from China has reported many significant public issues such as SARS and Sichuan earthquake, as well as some interesting topics like transsexual person during her seven-year journalist life.
“I believe journalists should always have the sense of responsibility to the public,” said Qian, “when you come to report big public issues, especially a matter of life and death for human beings, that feeling is much stronger.” Her sound is not that loud, but firm.
She graduated from the university in 2002. She is working as a financial journalist in China Business News in Shanghai now. Before that, she worked as an emergency reporter in a local newspaper in Jiangsu Province for two years.
“The stories I covered at that time were not that big, but I gained much experience which benefited me a lot later,” she said sincerely and pushed her glasses as usual.
Referring to the reports done on SARS in 2003, Qian has a deep feeling towards that, “It was really dangerous for us at that time, there were only few people in the streets, everyone stayed away from others, even when we were going to interview the doctors and patients in the hospital, the taxi driver just sent us to the place that was five-minute walking from he hospital.”
Being asked whether she was scared as well as the taxi driver, she said with a big smile, “not at all, it was the first time for me to realize what a big responsibility I had had as a journalist, I really love this feeling.”
During Sichuan earthquake last year, Qian and her fellows also went to Sichuan to do reports. Finding so many people all over the country coming to the ruined town to help the victims, she was deeply moved; again, the sense of responsibility for a journalist came out. “I have to do the reports, and when you do the report, you should be moved firstly, you could not make others feel moved if you are not.”
