Warmly welcome the media to apply for registration. Super simple.
Although the Badminton World Championships is a high-level international competition, it is a single event after all, and not many journalists signed up for interviews. The organizing committee announced the media registration form early, filled it out, stamped it and sent it back to the organizing committee, even if the registration was completed. Many China journalists have been waiting for the invitation letter sent back by the organizing committee for a long time, but the organizing committee gave an explanation: "We welcome all of you to interview, and the fax has been received. We won't send an invitation letter because our country visa is easy. " The reporters suddenly realized that they were rushing to issue visas and book hotels.
After arriving in Kuala Lumpur, the organizing Committee continued to carry forward its ruthless enthusiasm and welcomed all those who faxed or registered at the scene. It's just that the efficiency is a bit low, and the reporter can't get the certificate until 24 hours after signing in. Fortunately, the venue management is loose, and you can still enter and leave freely without documents, otherwise most journalists will be stopped at the door on the first morning of the competition.
There is no mixing zone. Post-game interviews are extremely difficult.
The Butra Gymnasium, where the World Championships are held, is a huge venue. There are four side-by-side venues in the center and three doors for players to enter and exit. Moreover, the inexperienced organizing committee did not set up a mixed interview area for the athletes, and there was no press officer to lead the athletes who finished the game to leave from the designated exit, which brought great trouble to the reporters who interviewed after the game. Because it is not easy to successfully intercept players by guarding three exits at the same time.
At the beginning of the China team competition, many reporters broke their legs between the three exits and complained to the organizing committee. Unfortunately, the solution to this problem has not yet appeared. I believe this siege will last until after the quarter-finals, because at that time the organizing Committee will organize players to hold a press conference after the game. (Qian Fangfang)
