"The recent events in the literary and art circles are very infuriating. Some have challenged the bottom line of human relations, some have challenged the law, some have challenged the bottom line of morality, and some have challenged the bottom line of the nation! They cannot represent the literary and art world, let alone engage in'literary and artistic circles.' 'This profession is responsible for raising the torch of national spirit.'
In his speech, actor Liu Jin mentioned that these people not only distorted and destroyed their fans’ worldview, outlook on life, and values, but also misled and incited a large number of minors, cultivated a vulgar "rice circle" chaos, and seriously interfered with society. order.
"Most people doing wrong things may hurt people around them, but literary and art workers doing wrong things may lead to a large number of people." Xie Hailong, a consultant and photographer of the China Literary and Art Volunteers Association, believes that it is a good thing for fans to have influence. The question is what should I do after I have a fan?
He pointed out that we must be responsible for our fans, lead our fans to be a good person, take the right path, and contribute to society, and form a good social fashion. We should not be single-minded about using fans to make money for good, and for personal petty gains, we will lead fans on a crooked road. ,evil ways.

The reporter noticed that many participants mentioned the influence of literary and artistic workers on fans, and the chaos in the “rice circle” is closely related to this.
Li Jing, a member of the Allegro Art Committee of the Chinese Music Association, pointed out that the actors and the audience themselves are mutually successful.
Actors are exquisitely skilled and will naturally be loved by the audience and gain a large number of fans.
The popularity of the audience makes the actors become "corners" and "vines", thus becoming iconic figures leading the industry. This supposedly healthy relationship between watching performances has evolved into the present. "Rice circle" chaos.
"An actor needs encouragement and well-intentioned criticism in the process of growing up." Li Jing believes that if he accepts excessive pursuit, the actor will easily lose himself, not focus on creation, and even fail to distinguish between beauty and ugliness in the face of big things.

Of course, the chaos in the "rice circle" is only a superficial appearance, and the power of capital can often be seen behind it.
Li Ning, vice chairman of the China Miscellaneous Association, pointed out that there are many artists who have expanded with capital invading the entertainment industry.
Lei Jia, the vice chairman of the China Music Association, bluntly stated that under the coercion of money worship and capital, there have been chaos in the "rice circle", "flow theory" and unethical behavior in the field of literature and art. Some young artists have become popular overnight, relying on capital for blessings. On the other hand, there is no fear, relying on the flow to protect the body and recklessly, trampling on the moral and legal bottom lines...
In this regard, Liu Jin also pointed out sharply that some artists do not learn and have no skills, but sell characters through hype topics, obtain high traffic and quickly realize them, and cannot really touch the spiritual world of the people. They are false and short-lived. Once the capital completes the reaping of benefits and retreats, these bubbles will inevitably break.
"The star-making mechanism itself has structural problems." Wang Hailin, vice president and secretary-general of the China Film and Literature Society, and chairman of the China Production Association's Screenwriting Committee, emphasized that it depends on the value of appearance and not on professional skills, artificial enthusiasm, hype news, and data scanning. ...These series of phenomena rely heavily on capital, rely on platform monopoly, and often rely on unfair and unbright methods. This unhealthy mechanism is difficult to produce healthy real stars.
He believes that the industry should encourage originality, encourage diversification, stop the crude intervention of capital in artistic creation, and build a fair, clean and scientific creative production and marketing mechanism to achieve high-quality development of the cultural industry.

"Should we think more about this, that is, what are the underlying reasons behind this phenomenon that is not a case?"
Zhang Kaili, director of the Chinese Theatre Association, director of the Chinese Literary and Art Volunteers Association, and actor Zhang Kaili feels that some current systems tend to emphasize talent and to a certain extent underestimate ideological and moral education; artists are also very talented and despise in the selection and use of artists. So that in the ideology of young people, as long as they are outstanding and win traffic, they are successful, and their conduct depends entirely on self-discipline. When this self-discipline is ignored or there is a mistake, it is not far from making a big mistake.
In the view of Zhang Dexiang, vice chairman of the China Literature and Art Critics Association and director of the Audiovisual Art Committee of the China Literature and Art Critics Association, the core problem exposed by the so-called "traffic stars" on the society is the issue of values.
"The reason why individual artists can't control themselves and become crazy, especially in the current market economy environment, are being used by bad capital and being engulfed by the "rice circle" because of the lack of correct values and the "flow" and "fans" "Money is the ultimate pursuit of value. I think that having these is success, so I am superior to others, forgetting about it, and falling into the muddy water."
Therefore, he emphasized that literary and art workers must adhere to the correct values and outlook on life, and firmly hold to the bottom line of life. At the same time, literary and art workers must adhere to a correct and healthy outlook on art and cultivate both virtue and art.
