Mon Mar 10 05:50:00 UTC 2025: ## Former CCTV Journalist Wang Zhian’s Divorce Turns Ugly in Public Livestream

**TOKYO, JAPAN** – A heated public dispute erupted on Sunday between former CCTV journalist Wang Zhian and his ex-wife Li Ting, unfolding during a live stream on social media. The incident, which saw accusations of deception, forced separation, and ultimately police intervention, has shocked online viewers.

Wang Zhian, known for his investigative journalism career with CCTV and the *Beijing News*, and his subsequent successful self-media career in Japan (boasting over 1 million subscribers on YouTube and X), found himself at the center of the controversy. Li Ting, a former researcher at the Chinese Academy of Sciences with a large online following under the pen name “大脸撑在小胸上,” accused Wang Zhian of coercing her into a divorce after moving to Japan.

In a tearful livestream, Li Ting alleged that Wang Zhian had persuaded her to relocate to Japan, only to force her to sign divorce papers two months later. She claimed he had previously prevented her from publicly acknowledging their marriage and demanded she cease her online activities, citing his own celebrity status. She further alleged that the divorce involved undisclosed conditions concerning their daughter’s future and his promise not to have any more children.

Wang Zhian, who appeared unexpectedly in the livestream, vehemently denied Li Ting’s accusations. The exchange quickly escalated into a shouting match, with Wang Zhian using expletives and demanding Li Ting leave his home. He subsequently called the police, accusing Li Ting of trespassing. Li Ting, visibly distressed and comforted by a man off-camera, maintained her claims throughout the incident.

Wang Zhian’s recent career has been marked by controversy, including a five-year ban from entering Taiwan following his commentary on the 2024 Taiwanese presidential election. The livestream incident has added another layer to his already complex public image. The details of the couple’s divorce and the allegations remain under scrutiny.
