Everyone in the room looked at each other. After watching Yang Can nod and confess, they didn't know what to say. Everyone who worked in print media had heard a famous quote from Time magazine founder Luce.
"There are two kinds of news in the world, fast news and slow "sex" questions. Slow news has depth and should answer more questions so that people have more time to think, which can affect more readers. Fast news does not have this. This kind of function is gone in a flash, and slow news is easier to make money than fast news."
However, knowing is knowing, but it is easier said than done. It is as detailed and authoritative as the report of "Time". Through charts, data, personal interviews and a lot of behind-the-scenes work, the most noteworthy things are presented to the readers. It requires a powerful collection of information. Ability, which reporter from Nanzhou Magazine has this ability
Not to mention Nanzhou Magazine. Among the five comprehensive "sex" magazines in Nancheng, apart from Ace Weekly, other magazines have not set up a so-called in-depth news reporting team at all, and do not have the ability to report this kind of "slow news."
In-depth reporting needs to go to a deeper level to dig into the causes of news events, the hidden inside stories behind them, and those things that are ignored by other media. If there is such a manuscript, it will make other colleagues reporting this news feel annoyed at the beginning. How can I forget the effect of so many news points.
For example, in the 2002 Time Magazine "The Death of Queen Elizabeth", all the media reported in a swarm. Only a few days later, Time Magazine used a full six pages to introduce the life of Queen Elizabeth in great detail. The report contained more than text. There are also 16 precious historical photos that record the style of the Queen Mother in different periods, and there are even precious photos with Princess Diana.
This report allowed "Times" to lead the "Sao" in those days.
Can Southern Weekly do in-depth reports? This is the question in everyone’s mind. Yang Can saw that these people’s emotions were mobilized, and they all sat up straight, nodded in satisfaction and said: "I have already reviewed the details of the flood incident in the cofferyan township. All the text data and photos are all exclusive. Now we are divided into two groups. Liu Ji led the team and editor Bai to dig out all the important figures of Yingzi Paper Mill, their life stories and important turning points. Zhang Ji, your group is in charge of the information about Mayor Wang Haibo."
Yang Can began to arrange everything carefully, making everyone admire the new reporter, thinking that this is relying on Xu Yang's relationship to "chaos" here to give orders. It turns out that there is something.
When Liu Lan and Bai Jie both looked through the photos brought back by Yang Can with their doubts and "confusion", they were almost stunned after seeing a few of them. Under the scene, tens of thousands of people carried thousands of tents on the temporary slope in the dark, and there were pictures of people saving lives on the assault boat.
Floods, heavy rains, painful faces, and ruined homes. Every photo has the power to shake people’s hearts. Without any text, Liu Lan and Bai Jieguang could feel the floods when the dyke broke in the cofferyan township. The despair of the people in the face of the flood, the risky spirit of rescuers in the disaster relief team, and the ecstasy of the villagers who died nine deaths all made them feel numb, and an immersive sense of shock came to them.
No sound, no words, just these real images are enough to make all souls tremble.
"Is this all taken by you?" Bai Jie felt that his voice was trembling, and could not tell whether he was excited or surprised. He didn't finish the question, but was stunned because he saw Zhou on the assault boat in the photo. The figure of Haoran and Yang Can...
Everyone turned their heads and suddenly realized why Yang Can is so emboldened today, even a little arrogant, because they absolutely have arrogant capital... These photos were taken back with their lives, and they participated in the rescue. process.
Those present here, ask yourself, who has the patience, the courage to do the same thing as these two young people? The scene fell into silence, and the look of perplexity and disdain in everyone's eyes was replaced by a certain deep admiration.
"Then this time, we will proceed in accordance with the work assigned by Xiao Yang. The manuscript will be issued three days later. All staff will be suspended. After the work is completed, Xiao Yang and Xiao Zhou will take a one-week vacation." Luo Cheng said in a deep breath. Q: "Do you have any opinions?"
The audience was silent, most of them were immersed in the shocking photos and couldn't extricate themselves, a few clearly shook their heads in a daze...
After the heavy rain, the long-lost sun was shining brightly. Yang Can squinted and took the manuscript of this issue to the Provincial Cultural Bureau and strode in.
One day ago, all members of Nanzhou Magazine assembled and went all out to do all the editing work of "Couyan Township Flood", a full more than ten pages of in-depth report, although this is the first time that Nanzhou Magazine has produced such an in-depth report. But in Yang Can's view, this report feels worthy of the word "exciting". After all, their first-hand information is unique.
On the day when the manuscript came out, Xu Yang and Luo Cheng were silent after they checked the manuscript. Although they knew the general content of the manuscript for a long time, they were still shocked by the fact that there was a flood, a murder case, and a heavily polluted paper mill. , They had no idea that this in-depth report involved so many people and events.
Of course, Yang Can himself has not been idle these days. Although Luo Cheng gave him a big holiday, he still dominated the entire report structure. Those sensitive names that made people numb appear again and again in the report. It made those editors feel as if they were tied up by something invisible, and couldn't move at all.
If it weren't for Yang Can to add the key "sex" text at the end, then this report would be reduced to an ordinary reveal, and there would be no such shocking effect.
After the final draft, Xu Yang did some work on his own and went to find relevant people to check whether the manuscript can be released. Although Xu Yang resisted the previous manuscript by himself, he was very cautious this time. The mayor Wang Haibo is involved. This is a taboo of the media. If you don't communicate with the "government" department in advance, it will be a big deal.
In this era of advanced information in China, there are countless types of media, but as long as you are a registered company, you have to follow many rules. One of them is negative news related to the leaders of the "government" department. You must go through a higher level. The authenticity of the affairs of the provincial party committee of the department, especially this kind of exclusive disclosure. If there is something untrue in the report, and dirty water is splashed on the face of the department of the “government”, the matter will be serious. Now, even if you don’t hold you criminally responsible, you won’t have to do it in the future.
If Xu Yang had not had the courage to take this big world, ordinary magazines would never take this risk. This is completely the act of "touching" a tiger's butt. After this report was published, Xu Yang had already found a few. Old comrades in the municipal party committee and provincial party committee helped him make suggestions.
However, the result was also expected by Yang Can. The other party only saw the name of Yingzi Paper Mill and Wang Haibo inside, and shook his head with a smile. The content of Yingzi Paper Mill, otherwise this matter is not something that the small magazine of South Weekly can bear.
