On the morning of February 22, the symposium on the publication and distribution of the new book "Shanghai Chronicle, Press and Publication Branch, Radio and Television Volume (1978-2010)" was held in The Shanghai Television Building. This chronicle, which took 9 years to compile and complete, was officially published and issued at the end of last year, comprehensively outlining and truly recording the development history and exploration process of Shanghai Radio and Television in the years of reform and opening up from 1978 to 2010. A considerable part of these historical materials were excavated and disclosed for the first time, and they are a vivid teaching material for the study and education of the "four histories."
How was the Oriental Pearl Radio and Television Tower built? What are the well-known brand programs and well-known hosts that Shanghai Radio and Television has created? How many firsts in the history of Chinese radio and television has Shanghai ever created? How is the pace of reform of Shanghai Radio and Television at the forefront of the country? These topics can be found in this chronicle. With a total of more than 1.9 million words and more than 300 photographs, "Shanghai Radio and Television Volume" is a documentary, scientific and empirical book with the characteristics of the times, Shanghai and radio and television.
Organized and compiled by the Shanghai Municipal Radio and Television Bureau and the Shanghai Radio and Television Station, the Shanghai Radio and Television Volume is an integral part of the second round of new local chronicles in Shanghai, which is an independent volume and a continuation of the 1999 edition of the Shanghai Radio and Television Chronicle. In September 2012, the editorial team of Shanghai Radio and Television Volume was formally established, and the excavation of historical materials and the compilation of outlines were started.
"The compilation of the Shanghai Radio and Television Volume is a huge and complicated project." Looking back on the past few years, editor-in-chief Li Shangzhi sighed. Most of the 14 compilers of this book are "retired veterans" in the field of radio and television, and they are also witnesses and witnesses of important historical moments recorded in the book. In July 2017, retired Li Shangzhi was hired as the editor-in-chief of shanghai radio and television volumes, taking over the compilation work and promoting the progress of revision. From 1978 to 2010, it was not only an important period and golden period for the development, development and growth of Shanghai's radio and television industry and industry, but also the period when Shanghai's radio and television system reform was the greatest and the institutional changes were the most, which brought great difficulties to the data collection work.
The problems encountered in the codification process were varied. "The original radio and television stations were dismantled and merged, the personnel flowed, the data was lost, and the situation was unknown; the existing management personnel were at a loss for the ins and outs because they had not experienced that period of history." Li Shangzhi said, "We asked the relevant leaders to coordinate and mobilize the relevant personnel to step on the iron shoes, collect them everywhere, and tirelessly and tirelessly excavate them." "Even in the most critical days of the new crown epidemic prevention and control task, the compilers still insist on writing at home, contacting by phone, online consultation, and working together. After 9 years of hard work, I have this heavy book of aspirations.
The whole volume of "Shanghai Radio and Television Volume" is divided into three parts. The first part includes color pictures, prefaces, development overviews and major events, which are the outline and tips of the book; the second part describes the institutions, programs, operations, technologies, new media, management, exchanges, cooperation, research, and publication of the Shanghai radio and television industry, which are the backbone and backbone of the book; the third part includes the introduction of 1353 people in the Shanghai radio and television industry and many important events and innovative highlights.
According to the compilation team, three concepts were adhered to in the process of revision. The first is to highlight the main thrust of reform. In terms of layout, content selection, and structural arrangement, efforts have been made to use historical materials to support the theme and main line of Shanghai Radio and Television reform and innovation, as the soul and main purpose that run through the whole volume. The second is to reflect the characteristics of radio and television. It fully reflects the reform and innovation of Shanghai Radio and Television in the management system, operating mechanism, operation mode and industrial development. For example, through the 18 special articles of the "Special Record" chapter, it is recorded that Shanghai Radio and Television has created a landmark "first" and wonderful in the national industry. Finally, there is the emphasis on cultural quality. Adhere to the principle of seeking truth from facts, objectivity and fairness, accuracy and comprehensiveness, put an end to factual errors and major omissions, and treat every sentence, every word, every photo and every form meticulously. The book not only has a "catalog" in Chinese and English, but also an "index" to facilitate readers to consult historical materials according to the initial letters of the key words of the content; the color photos at the beginning of the volume are arranged according to the theme, highlighting the grandeur of a number of landmark buildings in Shanghai Radio and Television and the style of Shanghai radio and television workers.
From the perspective of time span, the lower time limit of this volume is 2010. However, some people, matters or institutions underwent important changes in the following years and more than 10 years before the publication of this volume. "For example, some people have died, some units have been merged and reorganized, some newspapers and periodicals and enterprises have been shut down, certain frequencies and channels have returned and merged, and suburban stations have been merged into the district media center." Li Shangzhi said that in order to have a complete account of these people or events, the lower limit of the record time was appropriately extended when compiling, "the results of their development and changes are pointed out in the manuscript, so that the reader can understand the latest evolution of relevant facts." ”
