The long history of China is a cultural treasure for all of the Chinese people. Many businesses have set up to preserve and broadcast this rich cultural heritage to China and the rest of the world. Famous writers use their words to convey the messages in the heritage of the Chinese people. This literary output is not alone. Broadcasting companies for both television and film are also doing their part. Works based on the Four Masters’ Works appear constantly on television. Movies are dedicated to the historical dramas that shape our view on history. While these have broad appeal, newspapers have done a great deal to influence the perceptions of the people. They report on the culture of China and alert the people so that action can be taken if needed. Despite all of these efforts, many people have grown away from the classics of Chinese thought and literature. Thus, compulsory education is needed to help preserve their cultural awareness even though it is not known if that would help. Preserving the culture of China is a responsibility of all Chinese people. More importantly, these traditional treasures must be studied and learned so that the meaning of being Chinese is not lost. That is why the cultural industry in China is needed.

中國的悠久歷史是所有中國人民寶貴的文化財富。人們已經(jīng)成立了許多組織，在保護的同時，向中國和世界其他地區(qū)弘揚這深厚的文化遺產(chǎn)。著名的作家們用他們的文字來傳達中國傳統(tǒng)文化的信息。而且并非僅有文學作品這種形式。影視廣播公司也盡了自己的一份力。由四大名著改編的電視作品經(jīng)常被搬上熒屏。電影則致力于能改變?nèi)藗儦v史觀念的歷史劇作。這些(書籍、電視和電影)有著廣泛的吸引力，而報紙也極大地影響了人們的思想觀念。它們報導中國文化，并讓人們保持警醒，從而在有必要的時候可以采取行動。盡管已經(jīng)做出了上述所有努力，但許多人還是漸漸與中國傳統(tǒng)思想和文化相脫離。這些人可能脫離了自己的文化，因此需要進行義務教育來幫助保持他們的文化意識，盡管不確定這是否會有所幫助。保護中國文化是所有中國人的責任。更重要的是，這些傳統(tǒng)財富必須被學習和傳承下去，這樣，作為中國人的意義才不會丟失。這就是中國需要文化產(chǎn)業(yè)的原因。
