China
to see large media groups in coming five years (11/09/2002)
China's media industry will in coming five years foster a certain
number of large trans-regional and inter-trade groups which are of
relatively strong competitiveness and influence both at home and abroad
and further joins world advanced ranks, said Xu Guangchun, director
of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television.
Xu made the remark at the closing ceremony of the seventh annual
meeting of the International Council of the Museum of Television
and Radio, November 7 in Beijing.
The establishment of a socialist market economy and its further
development requires corresponding development of the media industry,
Xu pointed out, and the rapid development of high technology has
provided possibility for the modernization of the industry. Meanwhile,
with China's WTO entry and its opening wider to the outside world,
Chinese media is confronted with competition from large foreign
media groups.
All these requires Chinese media to solve as quickly as possible
its internal problems-such as rigid, closed management system, low-level
operation and narrow vision-seize opportunities and face challenges.
It should further emancipate the mind, speed up innovations, reforms
and make every effort to push forward the undertaking.
Along with the global economic resurgence and adoption of new technology,
the radio, film and television industry will surely enjoy a further
development through its reform and regrouping, Xu added.
