旧大公报是新中国建立之前在国内外影响最大的一家民间报纸。它拥有沪、津、渝、港四个版,合起来日销20万份。这个数字今天看来不足为奇,在当年的报业中却是首屈一指的。大公报的特色是它的言论、通讯和副刊,这是就报纸版面而言,它的事业所以蓬勃发展,则由于它善于经营管理。 1926年,胡政之、张季鸾、吴鼎昌三人接办天津大公报时,这是一家歇业已久,藉藉无名的报馆。他们接手以后,由于版面不断创新,一年后,就由日销二三千份上升到万份,并远销港穗各地。抗战前开创上海版;抗战后又创汉口版、香港版、重庆版、桂林 The old Ta Kung Pao was the most influential private newspaper at home and abroad before the founding of new China. It has Shanghai, Tianjin, Chongqing, Hong Kong, four versions, together 200,000 copies of daily sales. This figure seems not surprising today, but in the newspaper industry is second to none. The main feature of the newspaper is its speech, communication and supplement, which, as far as the newspaper page is concerned, is booming because of its good management. In 1926, Hu Zhengzhi, Zhang Jimei and Wu Dingchang took over the Ta Kung Pao in Tianjin. This was a long break by the unofficial newspaper pavilion. After they took over, due to the constant innovation of the layout, one year later they rose from 20,000 to 3,000 in Japan and exported to Hong Kong and Hong Kong. Shanghai version was created before the war of resistance against Japan; Hankou edition, Hong Kong version, Chongqing edition and Guilin after the War of Resistance
