Features: This textbook focuses on exploring the fundamental principles and methods of news interviewing and has had a broad impact in society. It was designated by the former Ministry of Education as a "Textbook for Higher Education in Liberal Arts" in its original edition. By 1999, the textbook had been printed over 10 times, with a cumulative circulation of over 300,000 copies. The revised second edition significantly expands both content and length. In addition to enhancing the scientific rigor of the arguments, it also emphasizes the timeliness, foresight, and practicality of the material. Recent topics of interest in the news industry, such as interview awareness, interview methods, news planning, news tracking, press conferences, interviewing and reporting on breaking events, travel interviewing and travel correspondence, and covert reporting, have also become new chapters in the second edition. The second edition places greater emphasis on the timeliness and "exclusive" value of the material, updating and supplementing certain sections of the original chapters to ensure more standardized and precise language expression. It strives to achieve accuracy, clarity, fluency, and accessibility in the writing.
