After the reporter arrived at the Capital Gymnasium on the media shuttle, he followed the clear flow line and went all the way to the media workshop. According to the on-site staff, the media workshop can meet the needs of hundreds of journalists working at the same time, and various technologies, materials and other preparations are now in place.
The mixed interview area of the Capital Stadium has also been set up, and since it was opened for two days, a number of athletes have been interviewed by reporters in the mixed interview area, including the athlete walking streamline and the reporter distribution streamline. However, according to the manager of the mixed mining area of the venue, considering that figure skating and short track speed skating projects are very popular, the number of journalists who will arrive at that time will be very large. However, due to epidemic prevention regulations, the mixed interview area can only accommodate about 40 reporters for interviews. Next, in view of this situation, the mixed interview area team may use the live broadcast screen projection method to transmit the interview screen to the media studio, so that the reporters who cannot enter the mixed interview area due to the number of restrictions can also complete the interview work. Moreover, through the actual operation of these two days, combined with the requirements of epidemic prevention, the mixed mining area is still undergoing streamline design and fine-tuning of distance, and strives to achieve the most perfect state before the start of the race.
