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.

中国的悠久历史是所有中国人民宝贵的文化财富。人们已经成立了许多组织，在保护的同时，向中国和世界其他地区弘扬这深厚的文化遗产。著名的作家们用他们的文字来传达中国传统文化的信息。而且并非仅有文学作品这种形式。影视广播公司也尽了自己的一份力。由四大名著改编的电视作品经常被搬上荧屏。电影则致力于能改变人们历史观念的历史剧作。这些(书籍、电视和电影)有着广泛的吸引力，而报纸也极大地影响了人们的思想观念。它们报导中国文化，并让人们保持警醒，从而在有必要的时候可以采取行动。尽管已经做出了上述所有努力，但许多人还是渐渐与中国传统思想和文化相脱离。这些人可能脱离了自己的文化，因此需要进行义务教育来帮助保持他们的文化意识，尽管不确定这是否会有所帮助。保护中国文化是所有中国人的责任。更重要的是，这些传统财富必须被学习和传承下去，这样，作为中国人的意义才不会丢失。这就是中国需要文化产业的原因。
