Chapter 374: The Seven Gentlemen and the New Era (Part II)
"We would like to thank the Film Bureau for providing this opportunity to communicate with us, and we cherish this opportunity very much, so we have compiled the opinions of some filmmakers and drafted an outline on the issues we are concerned about, which we hope to discuss with the participants. If there is anything inappropriate, please correct it:
1. For more than 10 years, some works shot by mainlanders in the mainland have not been released due to various reasons. We hope that the administration will review them, so that these works that have not been reviewed but do not violate national laws and regulations can have the opportunity to meet the public.
2. We hope that the censorship of films or the future classification system can be made public to the public. The public, including film producers and the media, can learn about the censorship or grading standards of each region, as well as the list of personnel, and can express specific censorship opinions in the media.
3. We believe that censorship should be replaced by a tiered system. The scientific nature of the classification system lies in the fact that it can first ensure the creative freedom of the film director, and at the same time classify and limit the audience scope of the film. This means that the relevant authorities can effectively guide and control the audience of the film, and the director can fully enjoy the creative freedom granted by the Constitution.
4. We believe that the culture of a nation is as important as its material development, so we hope to provide policy funding and protection to the works of local films that are creative but have limited market capacity, so as to ensure the long-term vitality of national film culture......"
