From a fragrant government employee to a worthless second-rate person, what has happened to professional editors?
In today's workplace, the role of professional editor seems to have undergone a transformation from glory to silence. They were once known as the mouthpieces of the government, holding the pen in their hands and scolding Fang Xuan; Now it is facing unprecedented challenges, and is even questioned by some as a "worthless" second-rate profession. So, what exactly have professional editors been through? And how should they respond to this change?
1. The glory of the past
In the years that have passed, professional editors have enjoyed unparalleled glory. Most of them come from government agencies and are responsible for conveying policies and guiding public opinion. Their words are like government spokesmen, every word, every word is carefully thought out and every word is made to be accurate. Their works are widely disseminated, influencing thousands of households, and are an important channel for people to obtain information and understand current affairs.
In those days, professional editors enjoyed a high degree of social respect and professional honor. They are seen as transmitters of knowledge, inheritors of culture, and role models in people's hearts. Their work is not just a job, but a mission, a responsibility.
Second, the coming of change
However, as times have changed, professional editors have gradually lost their former glory. The rise of the Internet has greatly improved the speed and scope of information dissemination. People can access information through a variety of channels and no longer rely on traditional media and editing. This makes the work of professional editors less important, and even questioned by some as "worthless".
At the same time, the rise of new media has also had a huge impact on professional editors. New media has quickly attracted the attention of a large number of users due to its fast, convenient and interactive characteristics. Professional editors, on the other hand, are faced with the dilemma of transformation, and they need to constantly learn new knowledge and skills to adapt to this changing era.

As the amount of information proliferates, so does the amount of information they need to process, which makes their work more onerous and complex. Second, their career prospects are becoming increasingly uncertain. With the rise of new media, the market share of traditional media has been declining, and the employment opportunities for professional editors have become less and less. Finally, their social status and treatment have also been affected. As the influence of traditional media gradually diminished, the social status and treatment of professional editors also declined.
Fourth, strategies for coping with change
In the face of the wave of change, professional editors need to adopt a proactive strategy to respond. First of all, they need to keep learning and improving their abilities. In this ever-changing era, only by constantly learning and improving oneself can we adapt to the development of this era. Second, they need to actively embrace new media and explore new ways and channels of communication. Through new media platforms, they can better interact with users, deliver information, and increase their influence and visibility. Finally, they need to pay attention to the development trend of society and the times, and adjust their career planning and development direction in time.

However, this does not mean that their value has disappeared. In this era of information explosion, people still need authoritative, trusted sources of information to guide their lives and decisions. Therefore, professional editors still have irreplaceable value and role. As long as they can actively respond to changes, constantly improve their abilities, and pay attention to the development trend of society and the times, they will be able to continue to write their own legends in the workplace.
