Liu ordered the officials to ensure a "smooth and orderly" reform in the culture sector, by meeting the needs of the general public, relying on their wisdom, and arousing their enthusiasm for participation. Guidelines on deepening reform of the cultural system, jointly issued by the CPC Central Committee and the State Council in January, require general art troupes, publishing houses, newspapers and magazines on culture, art, life and popular science, bookstores, movie studios, theaters, TV play producers, cultural intermediary organizations to gradually restructure into market businesses. Only a few very important cultural units will continue to enjoy state support, according to the document.
