the draft law on the promotion of the film industry in the original title: the license can be revoked by box office fraud

strong > Box office fraud: counterfeiters can be fined up to 500000 yuan / strong > Last year, the box office of films in mainland China exceeded 44 billion yuan, making it the second largest film market in the world. On August 7 this year, the total box office in the mainland exceeded 30 billion yuan. But behind the boom, there have been scandals of box office fraud. in March this year, the half-month-old film "Ip Man 3" was fined by the National Film Market Special Governance Office because it was found to have a false appearance at an abnormal time. After investigation, the film was faked more than 7600 times, involving 32 million yuan at the box office. This is just the tip of the iceberg of box office fraud. Yu Dong, president of Boehner Pictures Group, said that at present, there are a large number of cinemas that fail to report the box office, and some cinemas show a film and even steal 90% of the box office. Liu Yiwei, the host and director, said that some cinemas clearly stated in their investment plans that they were "prepared to steal 30% of the box office." during the preliminary examination of the draft Law on the Promotion of the Film Industry and soliciting opinions from all walks of life, some members of the standing Committee, relevant central departments, localities, and the public proposed to strengthen the supervision of box office receipts and increase the penalties for misreporting and concealing box office receipts. strong > Industry threshold: it is proposed to abolish the regulations on production qualification license / strong > according to Xinhua News Agency, with the promotion of the reform of the administrative examination and approval system, the current film production license has implemented a "zero threshold", as long as the film and television culture enterprises registered with the industry and commerce department can apply to shoot films. In this regard, the draft of the second trial cancels the provisions on the qualification license for film production, strengthens the examination of the film project establishment stage, and adds the stipulation that the competent film department shall issue a record certificate or approval document. strong > Professional ethics: it is suggested that bad artists be clearly publicized / strong > in recent years, scandals such as actors and directors taking drugs and whoring broke out from time to time, and "unscrupulous artists" once became the focus of the society. In this regard, some members of the standing Committee and some localities have suggested that regulations on professional ethics and self-discipline of film entertainers should be increased. The second trial draft of is clear: actors, directors and other film practitioners should abide by laws and regulations, respect social morality, abide by professional ethics, strengthen self-discipline, and establish a good social image in accordance with the requirements of both morality and art. Zhang Zhao and host Liu Yiwei, CEO of Letv Pictures, suggest that bad artists should not be treated only at home and abroad. For example, many Hollywood stars have drug abuse experience, and their films are still shown in China, which is unfair. In addition, it is suggested that the relevant departments make a clear public announcement to the bad artists, which can be used and which can not be used, and can not let the director and producer guess. strong > Movie content: "may cause discomfort to minors" prompt / strong > with regard to minor students, the draft of the first instance also stipulates that "students who are advocated by the state to receive compulsory education watch at least twice a semester films jointly recommended by the competent departments of education and film under the State Council that are conducive to the healthy growth of minors." On this basis, the word "free" was added to the second draft, proposing films that are conducive to the healthy growth of minors that can be jointly recommended by the competent departments of education and film under the State Council, and supporting students receiving compulsory education to watch them free of charge. strong > release time: "rational arrangement" of domestic film screening time / strong > in order to protect domestic films, the first draft review stipulates that "cinemas and enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households engaged in film mobile projection business shall not show domestic films less than 2/3 of the total annual screening time." in this regard, some members of the standing Committee said that at present, most cinemas show domestic films for less than 2/3 of the time. Some members also suggested that the requirements for showing domestic films in cinemas should be further clarified, and the government should be authorized to exercise necessary regulation and control over the time, schedule, and ticket prices for showing domestic films in cinemas, and to encourage projectors to set aside more prime time to show excellent domestic films. the second draft still continues the requirements for screening time. In order to prevent cinemas from evading the requirements in the early hours of the morning, it is further clear that screening times and time periods should be "reasonably arranged".
