Features: This book explores the sports communication in modern China. It needs to be noted that in the mid-19th century, there was no consensus on the definition of the concept of "sports." Research on "what sports are" has even continued to this day. For the sports communication in modern China, we need to pay attention to: On the one hand, because the concept of sports is quite broad and is in a continuous process of development, "sports communication" may also have different methods, content, and concepts in different time periods. On the other hand, the context of modern China has largely influenced and determined the methods, content, and concepts of "sports communication." This book selects Shanghai as an example to sort out the sports communication in modern China, based on the following considerations: First, based on the characteristics of the city of Shanghai. Second, for modern sports, Shanghai is an important base. Third, although modern Shanghai's sports have very important research value, so far, in addition to a book titled Shanghai Sports Chronicle, there has been no specialized research on the sports culture of modern Shanghai.
