The ideal is the ideal after all, and I don't know what path I will take in the future. When I was desperate, I wrote a passage: When other people's dreams have been killed, I still have a little fanatical attachment. When I leave with glory and dreams, I hope to come back one day. The process of making a decision is painful, but I must accept my reality and try to keep a wise mind and a clear decision in cruelty. If we are a group of people dancing in fetters, we must try our best to jump out of the most beautiful posture!
First of all, my views on journalism.
I remember a senior who came back from an internship gave us an internship report and said: The internship completely shattered my news ideal. I was a freshman at that time, and that sentence left a deep impression on me. However, during the nearly six months of my internship in the South weekend, I have absolutely no impression.
Most journalists here are very dedicated. Their tireless pursuit of news is admirable. They try their best to be perfect for every topic; For each interviewee, they tried to dig more details and relationships; They tried to verify the details of each report.
A reporter once told me that journalism is the most convenient, rapid and comprehensive occupation to understand society. I would also like to add that journalism is one of the few professions that can give people a sense of honor and pride. Here, I really feel that journalism is a cause worth fighting for all my life. From profession to career, every step and link of news is worth pondering, struggling and challenging. After each successful mission, the challenger's satisfaction is hard to describe in words.
The reporter who took me said to me: we should put news at the height of life. Maybe if you get married in the future, don't think about things like houses and cars, which will make better news. Of course, he didn't mean to give up his normal life, but he must do news wholeheartedly. He pointed out that one of my shortcomings was that I didn't pay enough attention to news.
Maybe many people already think that journalists are just a profession to make a living, and I can regard her as a profession that I can fight for all my life. News is valuable, and so are the people who do it. You can make news more important through your own efforts and leave your name in public opinion. At present, the most eye-catching journalists are probably current affairs reporters, such as Lin Chufang, who grew up through the Internet and the Southern Weekend. This is a field that is difficult to do and do well, but it is also a magical field with great prospects.
Second, the perception of news.
Although I studied radio and television news, my obsession with newspapers seems to have always dominated me. I like driving (this article is from the first model network, please keep this mark when reprinting. The feeling of words, although TV editing is also a job that requires brains, but only a few internships at school always make me feel more boring than fun. I like writing. I went straight to Beijing to find a good enough print media to exercise and satisfy me.
Fortunately, I met a circle of good people in Beijing and found a good newspaper. It is interesting to enjoy the news.
News should be valuable, and news should be true, objective and fast. That's all I knew about news before my internship. At the end of the internship, I was most impressed by these basic points.
When I first arrived at the newspaper office, Wu Chenguang, the reporter who took me, asked me to write a resume and briefly write down my views on Southern Weekend. I was cornered at that time. Of course, I only chose good words when I was in a hurry. After writing, the reporter corrected it for me. On the one hand, he corrected some "exaggerated" words; On the other hand, he changed the language for me, and let me know how to express more information and full meaning in the simplest language. Then send it to the director of the news department in Guangzhou.
Another way he trains me is to stipulate that I find one or two topics every week, write down the value of news and cultivate news sensitivity. Although the individual topics reported to the editor in this way have never been adopted (which is related to the southern weekend system), it is really good exercise for beginners. Unfortunately, I did badly because of laziness.
The operation of Southern Weekend is generally that the editor tells reporters to choose a topic on Thursday and Friday, and the deadline is next Tuesday afternoon. The deadline for reporting emergencies or due to the review of interviewees can sometimes be postponed to Wednesday noon. Wednesday is the time for editors to gather manuscripts. In Beijing, the newspaper met with readers on Thursday morning, and the online version has also been launched.
The main staff of Beijing reporter station are more than a dozen journalists and two or three editors. After receiving the topic, the reporter asked me to collect all the useful information about this report online. The process of collecting information is a preliminary process of grasping the topic, and it also exercises the initial way for novices to judge the news value. At first, I just searched all the online reports and sent them to reporters, without any focus. But slowly, I know what basic information is, what are the better ideas put forward in previous reports, which can be further explored, which should be marked in red and which should be written with my own ideas.
At the beginning, all I can do is help reporters collect information and arrange interview recordings or notes. For a time, I even thought that this was all I could do in this mountain of newspapers. Even if I organize the interview recording, I am very mechanical. I always sort out all the voices in the interview machine without any emphasis. But we should really know which records are useful and how useful they are, so as to save ourselves trouble and benefit others or our future work.
Fortunately, others gave me many opportunities to design interview questions independently and undertake some very important interviews. What is even more exaggerated is that I once made a manuscript about the reform of public institutions and contacted a professor at the National School of Administration. He said that I had time to go in the afternoon. Although I read some information at that time, the reform of public institutions was still quite chaotic. The reporter gently said "Let's go", so I had to bite the bullet and go to the taxi driver.
In a good newspaper, the longer you stay, the more you gain. Later, I was able to operate the topic completely independently, and I felt very satisfied. I am a person who can't say "no" because I don't think you are qualified to say "no" to reporters or interviewers during your internship. I will do whatever others tell me to do. Going to a press conference without writing a manuscript is also an experience; Finding suitable interviewees around the world is also an experience; It is an experience to pretend to be a reporter of another newspaper to determine whether a piece of news is true or false; The food policy I almost never cared about finally became an experience; Writing for it all night is also an experience; After the killing of Afghan workers in China, I happened to interview Sun Yuxi, China's ambassador to Afghanistan, by telephone, but I hung up just a few words and was scolded by reporters, which was also an experience. ...
Good news needs people with aura to do it, and it needs hard-working people to do it. It's a pity that I was still too lazy during my five months in Beijing. When I looked back, I wasted many good opportunities.
Third, the impression of Southern Weekend.
Room 705, Block B, COFCO Plaza, No.8 Jianguomen Inner Street, Beijing-Southern Weekend correspondent in Beijing. To the west of this street is the famous Chang 'an Avenue. Standing in COFCO Plaza, although you can't see the prosperity of Shilichang Street or the splendor of Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City, you can look up at a monument of modern China newspaper industry.
As we all know, Southern Weekend is a newspaper famous for its in-depth reports. It was all the rage in the late 1990s. Although the quality of the newspaper declined for various reasons, it is still the top weekly newspaper in China.
Therefore, when I stepped into the gate of Beijing reporter station of this newspaper on February 13, XX, I was filled with a feeling of reverence and confusion. I was worried that my poor news business ability would eventually appear very naive and stupid in front of this newspaper's reputation and many excellent journalists. But I had no choice.
It turned out that it was a great honor for me to enter Southern Weekend. A small office is enough to achieve the glory and dream of even an intern.
Journalists here have a deep attachment to their own newspapers, which I always feel is rare in other media. I can even consider myself a "southern weekend person" when I am here. When I went out for an interview, I heard people from the ministries and commissions say in a very vigilant tone, "Oh, are they from the Southern Weekend?" -that is a rebellious pride; I heard the people say with admiration, "Oh, it's for the southern weekend!" " "-that's heartfelt pride.
Southern weekend really has something to be proud of. The operation of newspapers is westernized, and the understanding and production of news is pure. There are also some good practices here: for example, we should evaluate the newspaper at the weekly meeting-evaluate how each edition of the news is doing, what is still missing, what can be further explored behind this news, what is the true face of this news, what can and cannot be done; What improvements should be made in the specific operation method, and whether it can be written in the first person; What kind of manuscript should be put in the headline, and whether there is a border in the headline of Southern Weekend (this article is from the first model website, please keep this mark when reprinting. Marginalization tendency, the first issue of the newspaper has two good manuscripts at the same time, what should be put on the front page, what kind of operation method should be used if it is put, and so on. Every comment gives me a lot of inspiration. People don't judge other people's manuscripts too much, but look at what they say. The atmosphere of Beijing reporter station is very democratic.
This is also the cultural tradition of southern weekends. When there were some management problems in the newspaper office and everyone criticized it, every reporter at the bottom sincerely expressed his opinions and had an equal dialogue with the newspaper boss, which I have never seen in any other unit. In their minds, they have always believed that Southern Weekend adheres to the concept of fairness and objectivity, which should be the first thing the newspaper should do. Newspapers are the home of all journalists and editors, which is rare in other newspapers. This concept is really rare when the media is becoming more and more just a profession.
However, after 20 years of development, the internal management system of Southern Weekend has also exposed many problems. I was a little disappointed when I first saw this. This seems to be the case with the best newspapers in China. Actually, it's normal to think about it. The society is in transition, and it is really normal for a small number of people to have problems.
After the internship, I gave the key to the elder sister in charge of administration, and she said she was leaving? Why don't we get together? However, I left without anyone knowing, just like when I first came.
In this glorious newspaper, I am only a small role, but I always think of those good people, those offices that other interns call "paradise" when they come to see. I miss their innocence and handsomeness, and those who can dream together.
A reporter gave me a set of Glory and Dreams on my birthday. I haven't read the whole book yet, but the title is enough to stimulate my nerves. When I carried her to the railway station to see a classmate going back to school, a heavy set of books seemed to be my whole body temperature.
Fourth, views on society.
Being a reporter to the highest level means being a man and making social relations.
If you want to do an interview, you should contact the interviewer first. The process of finding suitable interviewees is a good anthropological process. Especially those ministries and officials, and make critical reports. How to get those stubborn interviewers to accept your interview and how to shorten the distance between you in the fastest time is something that books and interview classes can't teach us. The accumulation of experience and social relations is particularly important.
The reporter who took me asked me to record all the people I interviewed by occupation, so that I can continue to use them next time. At least I can find new goals through them. I attended some press conferences and didn't write, so he asked me to exchange business cards with those leaders. Sometimes interviewing the leaders of ministries and commissions is really "deceiving others is too easy to see, and kids are difficult." It would be much more convenient if you could contact me directly.
Attending more academic lectures or some scholars' internal salons will improve knowledge and enrich the sources of interviews.
These interpersonal relationships at work are relatively easy to handle, because Beijing reporter station is a relatively pure gay relationship. But all kinds of things encountered in the interview make you feel the complexity of the world and your own simplicity.
Maybe it's just a small matter, but in order to let you report the social impact and help them solve the problem, the parties will invite you to dinner and give you all kinds of benefits after it is done. None of the clients I met were bad people, but at that moment, I really didn't know why a simple working relationship was so complicated by many people. That afternoon, I went to the National People's Congress to find my classmates. At dinner, everyone just talked about school. The contrast is too big, and the brain is a bit insufficient.
It's not easy to mix in society. But Mao Zedong once said: It is fun to fight with others. Sometimes, people can be mean.
During my five months in Beijing, I didn't study hard during my internship. When you are free, go to various places to play and meet all kinds of people. Sometimes those friends can help me in my life, and sometimes they can give me direct help at work.
Internship is not only an internship business, but also a life experience.
I have always felt that when people of our age come to Beijing, they either go to school or work, and there is always a school or unit to arrange their initial life. But just arrived in a completely strange place, we didn't even know where to live on the first day in Beijing, and we couldn't find the place to go. We speak standard Mandarin, "communicate" with old Beijingers (maybe those who stay in Beijing for a few more days), endure the taxi drivers dragging us around, endure looking for cheap houses to rent everywhere, and endure the taste of despair.
So I was particularly moved in Beijing, and I thanked everyone who helped me: I took my brother in when I first came, helped me to contact my friends in the internship unit, my sincere journalists, my friends who have no money to lend me now, helped me to contact journalists who gave suggestions to the interviewees, and my classmates and friends who took me to play. I really appreciate them. With them, my life in Beijing is not particularly lonely. On the contrary, I miss the freedom of loneliness very much.
Strangely, every student who came back from internship in Beijing, whether looking for a job or taking the postgraduate entrance examination, still wants to go to that place that is not suitable for a comfortable life. I'm not sure what the charm of the capital is, but I am one of them.

"A reporter once told me that journalism is the most convenient, fastest and comprehensive occupation to understand society. I would also like to add that journalism is one of the few professions that can give people a sense of honor and pride. Here, I really feel that journalism is a cause worth fighting for all my life. From profession to career, every step and link of news is worth pondering, struggling and challenging. After each successful completion of the task, the challenger's satisfaction is hard to describe in words. "
When I saw these words, a sudden emotion welled up in my chest. The news ideal firmly established in high school, like bundles of dry wood waiting to burn in the corner, suddenly met the long-awaited flame and spread rapidly and irresistibly ... Half a month ago, when Beige interviewed Nan Zhou, the violent beating frequency swept through my heart again and told me: You should be such a person; Otherwise, when you stand on this land, how can you feel that the soles of your feet are integrated with the soil and how can you feel that your whole body is as transparent as the sun?
Now, I have followed reporters out for more than 20 times. In every interview, I will write down the questions asked by reporters. When I come back, I will take the initiative to write the manuscript. I will show it to the reporter after I finish writing and point out my shortcomings. I seldom wrote a manuscript before, but now I want to laugh when I see my manuscript for the first time. The feeling is dry, especially stiff, and the oral introduction is too stiff, which did not attract the attention of the audience. The commentary is also written like a running account. Emotional films, with dry explanations, are not touching enough, and at the same time they are too wordy and not refined enough. . As can be seen from the later manuscripts, your writing ability has been improved accordingly. I find that the simpler the language of TV news, the easier it is to understand. At the same time, the sentences should be beautiful and friendly, so that the audience can have a feeling of relaxed dialogue.
In the future study and life, I will definitely work harder, because this time I have learned a lot, and I don't know more, which requires my efforts.
I believe I can do it well, and I firmly believe that my tomorrow will be more brilliant!
