職場心經(jīng)

好的開始是成功的一半，對于新聞發(fā)布會傳播而言，前期的準備工作是非常重要的，直接決定了后期的傳播效果。新聞發(fā)布會是媒介專業(yè)素養(yǎng)集中展現(xiàn)的舞臺，在發(fā)布會舉行之前，媒介人員有大量的工作要做，包括制定媒介計劃、媒體邀請和媒體溝通三大塊內容。

在發(fā)布會的大致內容和日期確定之后，就需要啟動媒體邀請工作。邀請的時間一般以提前3至5天為宜，發(fā)布會前一天可做適當?shù)奶嵝?。?lián)系比較多的媒體記者可以采取直接電話邀請的方式。相對不是很熟悉的媒體或發(fā)布內容比較嚴肅、莊重時可以采取寄邀請函的方式。此時，公關人員需要與記者就發(fā)布會的大致內容進行初步溝通，同時確認參會的記者。另外，為媒體提供詳細資料，一般包括會議議程、新聞通稿、演講發(fā)言稿、公司宣傳冊、有關圖片、紀念品、企業(yè)媒體關系負責人名片等。

必備的詞匯熱身

●　presenter [pri?zent?] n.發(fā)言人

場景應用

卡爾先生就新聞發(fā)布會的準備情況向卓琳進行了詢問，并對她提出了新的要求。

A：Is the room ready for the press release?

B：Yes, it is. Everything necessary for the release is already on the table, such as the name list, paper, pencil—anything that might occur to you.

A：Thank you very much. Is there any space for photographers and correspondents?

B：Of course. We've left enough space for them.

A：What we shall do next is to make sure that the questions they might ask should be precisely previewed.

B：OK. They have presented some major questions to us. But how should we decide the order of questions-asking, I mean, who will be the first to ask a question?

A：You decide it first, and then let me have a look at it. Besides, you should be prepared to write down every question and answer at the release.

B：Oh, my God. That's too difficult for me to do it well, and I don't think it is necessary to do that.

A：Do not turn down my suggestion.

B：OK, I'll try my best.

A：新聞發(fā)布廳準備好了嗎？

B：是的。新聞發(fā)布會所需用的一切都放在桌子上了，諸如名單、紙、筆，你可能想到的任何東西都有了。

A：謝謝。有攝影師和記者的位置嗎？

B：當然，我們?yōu)樗麄兞舫隽俗銐虻奈恢谩?/p>

A：我們下一步要做的是務必對他們可能提的問題做仔細審查。

B：好的。他們的主要問題已經(jīng)提交給我們了，可是我們應該怎樣確定提問順序呢？我的意思是，誰第一個提問呀？

A：你先定，然后我看看。另外，你應該做好準備將這次新聞發(fā)布會上的所有問題和答案都記錄下來。

B：噢，天哪！這件事太難了，我做不好，況且我認為不必如此。

A：不能拒絕我的建議。

B：好吧，我會盡力的。

turn down拒絕

turn something/somebody down的意思是“頂回”或“拒不理會”。例如：Peter was non-committed but did not turn down the proposition out of hand.彼得未置可否，但也沒有馬上拒絕這個建議。

“拒絕”的其他表達方式還有：

pass up拒絕

I don't know how to pass it up.

我不知道該如何拒絕。

give a denial to拒絕

I don't want to give a denial, but I'm afraid I have to.

我不想拒絕，但恐怕我必須那么做。
