Since the popularization of smartphones, the decline of traditional media has accelerated significantly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoEspecially in recent years, many newspapers and periodicals have closed down one after another, and the editors of many online media have suddenly found that there is obviously less content available for excerpts overnight.

What to do? Then do it yourself. As a result, there are gradually positions for interviewing (on-site) reporters in online media.

The domestic Internet, after so many years of big waves and sands, can still be a bit famous online media, either good stubble, either with a deep background, or with abundant funds. Without three, two, three, how dare you go to Liangshan, let alone dare to jump into this pool of deep water.

Gradually, the proportion of online reporters at various press conferences began to increase, and gradually began to share the country with reporters from traditional media.

At the same time, because of the high degree of overlap between the people targeted by the IT industry and the online media, as well as the fast dissemination speed of the online media, the days of running the IT port are the most nourishing among the online media reporters.

In the domestic IT industry, there are not many emergencies. Even if there is, it is nothing more than some high-level personnel changes in the enterprise, or which rich fish has eaten a small shrimp, or a strong alliance to fight against NO.1 and so on. As a journalist, most of the relevant news you can get comes from corporate press releases, or even from social platforms.

In addition, one of the most important things for IT journalists is to "run meetings". In a sense, the Internet economy is the attention economy, so the frequency of IT companies in various external meetings is far greater than that of traditional enterprises. For example, new product launches, product seminars, channel recruitment conferences, corporate image promotion, media interviews, etc., are enough for an IT reporter to be busy early (take the carriage fee) until late.

However, in the past two days, IT reporters from major media have put aside these easy jobs and gathered in Jianghai City.

When it comes to Jianghai City, although it is proud of its economic strength in large cities in China, as a representative industry of the new economy, the development of IT companies has been tepid.

Not to mention that it is not as good as Beijing, Pengcheng, Lin'an, these iconic IT leading enterprises, and even some emerging inland cities, the development atmosphere of IT enterprises in recent years is better than Jianghai City.

But since the advent of the small card translation software a month ago, the eyes of the entire industry have been focused here. There is constantly big news breaking.

As soon as it appeared, this software exceeded the expectations of all users, broke the imagination of all experts, and purely relied on technical advantages to sweep the online world at home and abroad.

Under the premise that there was basically no promotion in the early stage, the user growth rate of this software is the best interpretation of the word "miracle". Not to mention the conversion rate of its paying users, it is too pale to describe it as "grabbing money".

As the publisher of this software, the background of Infinite Future Technology Company was quickly investigated by the industry. It is simply unimaginable that without any capital support from a large institution, the owner of the company is just an ordinary IT practitioner.

How did he do it? How? There must be a lot of stories hidden in this, big news! The eyes of reporters from various media outlets were red.

It turned out to be an extremely elusive interviewer, and he has not been interviewed by any media so far, except for a press conference. rushed directly to the door, this guy is still not in the company, no one answers the call, no one answers the text message!

The soul is light! Did you know that you are a newcomer? Do you know that you are starting a start-up company, and what you need most is media coverage! What the hell do you want to do!

If the anger of the reporters could be turned into substance, Chen Wenhao would have been burned to ashes.

But you can't ignore him. The next news was more shocking than the other: the rejection of major well-known domestic venture capital, and the agreement with Facebook on a $5 billion cooperation plan.

The news came so intensively that the aftermath of one blockbuster news had not yet passed, and another blockbuster news suddenly struck. It's so fast that these reporters just want to sing: without the slightest precaution, without the slightest concern, you just show up.

The cause of this news leak is Tang Liyang. As the president of Facebook Asia Pacific, he also appears very frequently. On Thursday, he led a group of lawyers, actuaries, and other personnel to appear at Jianghai Airport, and he was authorized by the headquarters to be the representative of the negotiations.

As a result, he was recognized before he left the airport, took a photo and posted it to social platforms, and the poster also wrote: Facebook is really not easy, it has not yet entered the Chinese market, but executives are running to China all day long.

A reporter with a keen sense of smell followed Tang Liyang's itinerary and photographed him, Kevin and David going to Infinite Future Technology Company together. The media didn't pay much attention to it at first, after all, the two sides had signed a sky-high order before, and high-level visits between cooperative enterprises were also a normal business activity.

The media began to churn when Wu Ruitian and his team also appeared in Infinite Future. As the relevant person in charge of Tencent's investment department, Wu Ruitian has a lot of information maps on the Internet, and his identity was soon exposed. As a member of the "troika" of domestic IT giants, Tencent's investment department has attracted attention in every move.

The identities of Kevin and David have also been exposed. A clever reporter found them through a picture search engine.

The atmosphere was completely ignited, and groups of reporters began to rush to Jianghai City. No way, this news is too imaginative. Facebook aside, what do two top venture capital institutions in Silicon Valley and the investment department of a leading domestic company talk about with the company of Xiaoka translation software?

For a time, all kinds of speculations filled the Internet, and reporters from major media squatted on Infinite Future Company every day, but all interview applications were politely rejected, and the unified voice to the outside world was, "The five-party talks have not yet ended, and there is no definite news to be announced." ”

"So, what can you tell us first?"

"I'm sorry, but after the talks, it will be announced."

……

For several days in a row, the reporters squatted downstairs in the Infinite Future Technology Company, and could be seen early every morning, and the representatives of the four teams participating in the talks, under the leadership of their respective leaders, drove into the Infinite Future Technology Company in a neat manner, and Chen Wenhao would greet him at the door of the company. In the middle of the night, a team of people left exhausted, and Chen Wenhao saw him off at the door of the company.

And then what? There is no then, because the propaganda of all the parties involved is exactly the same, "I'll tell you when the talks are ready." ”

Countless reporters heard their own heartbreaks.

By the third day, most of the reporters from the comprehensive media had withdrawn first, and most of the rest were people from professional IT media.

Early in the morning, a group of reporters watched in amazement as several teams of negotiators got on the elevator in suits and leather shoes, but they were stopped by the staff on the first floor. Many reporters are in a trance, why do they feel that this scene is inexplicably familiar.

However, although the interview did not go well, the waiting treatment was still good. This six-storey building has been rented by Infinity Future as a whole, and in order to arrange the visiting reporters, the lobby on the first floor was temporarily arranged as a waiting area, and several rows of tables and chairs were borrowed from the canteen of the software park, free WIFI tea, coffee and snacks, and working meals at noon and evening.

The reporters who are waiting here have completed several manuscripts here in the past few days, and although there is no official announcement, it is always possible to predict and reason without responsibility.

However, always playing with prediction and reasoning, the goods in the stomach can easily be poured out. By today, everything that could be written had been written, and the reporters were bored in groups of two or three, guessing what progress had been made in the talks upstairs.
