古往今来,有过不少人读书“过目不忘”的传说,儿时总以为这是写书人的夸张之词,其实并不一定如此。随着涉身的事情愈来愈多,特别是当了二十年记者之后,我以为过目不忘之类的功夫,记者倒是必须具备的。在新闻界,我知道至少有两位老前辈是具有这等功力的,一个是邵飘萍,一个是恽逸群。记得,邵飘萍在谈到记者采访时,他主张“不可用纸笔抄录”,因为新闻常常是在随便的谈话中透露出来, Throughout the ages, there have been many people who read the book, “never forget,” the legend, childhood always think this is an exaggeration to write a book, in fact, not necessarily the case. With more and more things involved, especially after twenty years as a journalist, I think it is necessary for journalists to possess the kind of kung fu they never forget. In the media, I know that at least two veteran members have this skill. One is Shao Piaoping and the other is Yi Yiqun. I remember when Shao Piaoping talked about an interview with reporters, he advocated “no use of copy of paper and pen” because the news was often revealed in casual conversations.
