However, the dream is full, but the reality is embarrassing.
Yes, in this information age, this era of knowledge explosion. Financial columnists are naturally an era of infinite scenery and plenty of gold and silver. There are hundreds of thousands of readings and tens of thousands of likes in a few simple words, and it is also empty to go out and make a report.
However, it is not so easy to become a well-known financial columnist. Behind any infinite scenery is the accumulation of hard work, years of experience and wisdom.
How to become a well-known financial columnist?
02
Generally speaking, well-known financial columnists have the following categories. If you want to be a famous financial columnist, first see if you can become one of the following:
03
First, the authoritative personnel of party and government organizations. Many well-known financial columnists are financial experts from party and government authorities, national authorities and authoritative research institutions. He has rich working experience and experience in formulating and promulgating financial policies by party and government organs, and understands and grasps the trend of national economic and financial policies and the key points of future regulation. They not only know what is going on in China's economy, but also know why. At the same time, their greater advantage is that they have mastered first-hand economic policies, the core situation of economic operation and important data. Their columns can reveal the information of economic policies and provide the most authoritative information, such as spokespersons of various ministries, chief economists, directors of research institutes and directors of research departments. The identity of these people is unmatched by any analytical researcher. Such as the Central Policy Research Office, the National Development and Reform Commission, Xinhua News Agency, etc.
04
The second is authoritative experts and researchers. In the economic field of China, a group of authoritative experts and researchers are active. They have official status. Although they are not front-line managers and makers of economic policies, they are interpreters of economic policies, because their interpretation is simpler and more direct for you to understand and master policies. These people include research experts from the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, experts from the Research Office of the State Council, experts from the the State Council Economic Development Research Center, policy research institutions of governments at all levels, and research and analysis institutions of ministries and commissions. These people have a real information frontier. There are also the National Information Center, the Macroeconomic Research Institute of the National Development and Reform Commission, and the Provincial Academy of Social Sciences.
05
The third is to teach scholars. This kind of personnel are mainly university professors and scholars in university research centers. These institutions have gathered a large number of theoretical experts, occupying the forefront of theory and discipline. They can introduce advanced foreign management experience, the latest theories and the most modern economic analysis tools to the people of China, and they can also be outspoken about the current economic situation in China. Therefore, they are also very popular candidates for financial columns.
06
Fourth, experts and chief analysts of private think tanks. There are several private think tanks in China, such as Anbang Consulting of Anbang Group, Enterprise Management Consulting of Great Wall Enterprise Strategy Institute, Tianze Economic Research Institute, National Economic Research Institute of China Economic Reform Research Foundation and China International Economic Exchange Center. Senior researchers in these think tanks have the advantages of mastering international and domestic information, independent perspective, seemingly neutral critical spirit, forward-looking suggestions for the future, and certain influence on decision-making, so such personnel are also the goal and focus of many media finance columnists.
07
The fifth is the grassroots financial star. These people are generally highly educated, and some even have the background of studying abroad. These people rely on solid theoretical foundation, keen observation and unique sense of financial analysis, and mainly rely on rich research results and analytical articles to occupy a place among financial columnists. However, there are fewer such people, and some of them will be affiliated with some influential institutions, such as some private research institutions, and hang some titles such as senior researchers and so-and-so experts in private institutions.
08
Sixth, freelance financial columnist. Admittedly, there are some successful financial columnists, but generally they are mainly financial literature, such as financial novels, financial reports, financial reviews and so on. After all, literature has more audiences than pure financial articles, so it is more popular. This kind of people are writers in essence, but only writers who focus on finance and economics.
Therefore, if you want to become a financial columnist, you must first reserve professional theoretical knowledge, then seriously consider your own conditions, evaluate your own advantages and financial reserves, and then make clear your goals and work hard.
