"The people who create cultural products should have cultural consciousness", said Chen Daoming, a famous actor and CPPCC member in an interview.
He spoke bluntly, that Chinese movies have been making great progress, while a lot of low-quality movies have also been made.
"If we say that European movies discuss philosophical questions and American movies talk about society and humanity, then many Chinese movies are simply seeking the bottom line of morality," he said.
Both the classic TV shows "Siege" and "Kangxi Dynasty" star Chen Daoming. He prioritizes TV show quality over quantity. I'd like to give thumbs up to actors like him.

Cultural workers, literary critics, media practitioners, cultural policy makers, and other elites should be responsible for cultural enlightenment. Please do it by ourselves.

I love the CPPC members like Chen Daoming, because each of his proposals are closely related to his profession unlike other casual ones.

The social legal laws and regulations of each country, including the social system, are different. Therefore, different countries have different responses to films. Going even further, it is the different concepts of worldview. For example, the bottom line in our life is the moral bottom line of observing disciplines and obeying laws.

Both blockbusters and cult TV shows and movies shall be put on the market. Not every movie needs to convey a profound meaning. On the contrary, cultural diversity is essential to cultural prosperity.
