Chen Xiaoguang: let people enjoy the fruits of arts Updated: 2004-09-12
To let people enjoy the fruits of arts and to stimulate them to participate
in the art gala through all methods is the biggest feature of the Seventh China
Arts Festival, said Chen Xiaoguang, the vice cultural minister and director of
the organizing committee of the Seventh China Arts Festival.
According to Chen, the opening ceremony has been previewed ten times before
the formal performance and the invited audiences from the lower social level
such as workers, teachers, and other ordinary people. The committee also adopted
several favorable policies to let the audiences enjoy the programs at low
prices. In addition, adopting the audiences' opinions in the competition for
Wenhua Awards makes the arts festival a real festival for the people. Besides,
it is the audiences themselves who decide the awards of "Most Favored Play by
the Audience" and "Most Favored Actor / Actress by the Audience".
