If I have defined a topic too professionally as a textbook, many topics on the Internet are actually the best inspiration: large-scale activities recently organized by a website, enthusiastic netizens have published a large number of text and text content. if one or two official posts cannot carry a large number of content, we need to report topics on the activity. when we need to make important announcements on an activity, when we need to expand the forum, we need to publicize the pre-announcement topic. when advertisers want to plan and package their own products and services on the Special Topics page, they need to use the ad promotion topic ......
