"When the focus of a movie is on the millions of people, the picture of the times and history will become richer and more vivid." Huang Jianxin, Chairman of the Beijing Film Association and famous director, said at the Beijing Cultural Forum "Cultural People: Literary Values and Social Life" held today. He presented a set of data: from January to August 2023, the box office of Chinese films reached 42.8 billion yuan, with 9 films exceeding 1 billion yuan, of which 6 exceeded 2 billion yuan. "Chinese cinema has formed a good ecology with diverse themes and genres." Huang Jianxin proposed that portraying characters, conveying imagery, expressing emotions, and conveying spirit are the basic conditions for telling a good story. Movies should not be self indulgent. If you want the work to be down-to-earth and deeply ingrained in people's hearts, you must persist in seeking the people-oriented character in the work. Creators need to

"In 2012, I worked at the Palace Museum and had the opportunity to participate in some of its conservation actions."

"Since ancient times, there has been a saying in China that 'articles are written in unison, songs and poetry are written in unison'. This indicates that literary and artistic creation should follow the movement of the times, grasp the pulse of the times, and express the emotions of the times. Chen Weiya, Chairman of the Beijing Dancers Association and famous director, said today at the sub forum of the 2023 Beijing Cultural Forum on 'Cultural People: Literary and Artistic Values and Social Life'.". Dance is one of the oldest forms of human art, and compared to other art genres, dance expressions are more intuitive and direct. Chen Weiya believes that dancers should have full confidence in using dance language to interpret our history, depict our lives, express our pursuits, and make Chinese stories "dance". At the end of August, Chen Weiya went to Heilongjiang for wind harvesting. During the process of collecting wind, he realized that the earth will not age, but will not grow old

Zhao Shengliang, Secretary of the Party Committee of the Dunhuang Research Institute, said at the parallel forum of the "Cultural Heritage: Systematic Protection and Active Inheritance" held today at the Beijing Cultural Forum, "So far, the world cultural heritage we have seen, such as the Mogao Grottoes, is so rich in content and has a long history." He said that the Dunhuang Research Institute has always adhered to the six character policy of "protection, research, and promotion". Protection is the foundation, and if cultural relics are not well protected, nothing can be discussed. Research is the core. If we don't study, how do we know the value of these cultural relics? How can we promote the excellent traditional culture behind it? Promoting is the goal, and our protection and research ultimately aim to create today's civilization and culture. "Don't worry about the sand blocking the entrance of the cave anymore" Zhao Shengliang introduced that the the Mogao Grottoes of Dunhuang were built in public

"Even if I write a historical work that seems completely unrelated to the present, I still need to pay close attention to reality." Famous writer Mo Yan said at today's Beijing Cultural Forum's "Cultural Man: Literary Value and Social Life" roundtable forum, that literature transcends time and space, and good writing is not limited by geography and time. He said that when we read historical works such as "Dream of the Red Chamber" and "Book of Songs", we will still be moved, strongly shocked, and have a noble aesthetic enjoyment. This is a very convincing example. Mo Yan believes that a writer's creation should focus on the present, but must also be free from the constraints of the present. If you want to create a novel set in the 1930s, you first need to be fully familiar with the various aspects of society in that era, and also need to be familiar with the current situation

Currently, many excellent foreign literary works are constantly being displayed on our bookshelves, and contemporary Chinese literature has also entered foreign bookstores and libraries through the efforts of a group of overseas translators. For example, Liu Cixin's "Three Body Problem" has sparked a reading frenzy overseas. What is the task of a translator on the path of "going out and bringing in" literary works? Recently, in the October Literature Month series of activities, writer Wen Zhen brought up such a topic to everyone. Dutch translator Shi Lu said that when translating a Chinese work into Dutch, she first hopes that Dutch readers, her own relatives and friends can also understand it, which makes her feel meaningful. In specific translation practice, she believes that the most difficult to translate is the unique elements from different cultures, and for translators, it is necessary to create a new one that is convenient for translation

Recently, the "Let's Watch the Eagles and Falcons emerge from the Wind and Dust" exhibition on the history of Taiwanese compatriots fighting against Japan and saving the nation, organized by the Shanghai Taiwan Compatriots Association, opened in Shanghai. This exhibition, through a large number of precious historical images and texts, focuses on the years 1895 to 1945, after the defeat in the First Sino Japanese War and the annexation of Taiwan. Under the guidance of national spirit, many Taiwanese compatriots adhered to the unity of resistance, bravely defended their homes and country, and upheld the national integrity of Chinese culture and the fine tradition of patriotism and love for their homeland. Lu Lian, President of the Shanghai Taiwan Compatriots Association, stated that holding exhibitions and commemorating martyrs is more important in terms of standing firm in the present and envisioning the future. The fifty year history of the Taiwan compatriot family's resistance against Japan and salvation shows us that the two sides of the Taiwan Strait are a community with a shared future connected by blood. China is the common home of compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, and the blood is thicker than water. The kinship of compatriots will never be obstructed by any force.
