Chapter 374 Classics of the Dragon Kingdom Era (Part 3)

"Hello, representatives from all walks of life at the scene, and friends in front of the TV, I declare that the 10th Era Classics of Longguo in 2016 has officially begun!"

As several hosts announced in unison, this unique Era Classics finally kicked off, and warm applause broke out from the audience. Countless cameras were moving, some were shooting the beautiful and exquisite stage, and some were capturing the detailed expressions of the big guys present.

CCTV's top speaker and tonight's host Ma Yu smiled and said, "The Dragon Country Classics has been held for nine sessions. Today is the tenth session, and I have been fortunate to host five sessions in total. This award also witnesses my personal growth."

Female host Xun Fang continued, "Brother Xiao Ma has hosted five sessions and is the most experienced one. This is my third time hosting the Classics of the Times Award. To be honest, the biggest feeling I have about this session is that it is different from the previous two sessions. This time's Classics of the Times is no longer a grand gathering for literati, but a peak ceremony that people from all walks of life will pay attention to!"

"As the first time to host the Classics of the Times, the newbie is trembling."

Several other hosts spoke at the same time, and this scene caused a burst of laughter from the audience. Although they knew that this group of hosts had been specially rehearsed, no one would care so much, because these hosts hosted very naturally and there were not many signs of rehearsal.

"Okay, no more jokes. The Classic Times is a serious occasion, so as hosts, we should not forget our duties."

Ma Jue concluded with a smile, and then said: "Before the award ceremony begins, we must first invite the representative of the organizer of this Classic Times - I believe someone has noticed that the organizer of this session is not just our Longguo Writers Association, but also several domestic official organizations."

People from all walks of life in the audience looked at the stage curiously.

"First, let us invite Mr. Zhang Cheng, the representative of the Longguo News Bureau."

There was an applause from the audience immediately. The News Bureau is a large organization in Longguo that is equal to the Radio, Film and Television Bureau. It controls the life and death of many stars. It can ban artists and also examine the morality of artists.

As a middle-aged man with sparse hair came on stage, Xunfang smiled and said: "Then let us invite Ms. Zhao Moli, the representative of the Longguo Radio, Film and Television Bureau." After Xunfang finished speaking, a long-haired woman in her forties also came on stage. The State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, this official organization, naturally needs no introduction, and its power is terrible.

The third host said, "Next, please invite the chairman of the Writers Association, Mr. Lin Yifeng."

A man in his forties, wearing a black suit and with his hair combed meticulously, came on stage.

This is an old face of the Times Classics, because the Times Classics in previous years were all hosted by the Writers Association, and many writers are familiar with Lin Yifeng.

This is not only the chairman of the Longguo Writers Association, but also the leading figure of Longguo science fiction novels. The "Alien Miracle" written by him has won the Longguo Times Classics Science Fiction Award, which is the so-called science fiction award. Luoyang has read the works of some of Longguo's top writers, including Lin Yifeng's "Alien Miracle".

Under his pen, he created a lifelike alien world. In terms of writing skills alone, there is nothing to criticize.

There is naturally no objection to such a person serving as the chairman of the Longguo Writers Association. Even Luoyang thinks that the science fiction written by Lin Yifeng is very interesting. Although his works cannot be compared with some of the top science fiction works in his memory, considering the development speed of Longguo's entertainment, Luoyang thinks it is already above the standard.

When the host invited all the representatives of the organizers to the stage one by one, the applause of the audience reached its peak.

Each of these people on the stage, taken individually, has unparalleled weight, even Luoyang is clapping seriously, because apart from other things, these people's abilities are undoubtedly top-notch in Longguo.

And Luoyang, except for writing novels, is not strong in other aspects, but few people are omnipotent, a hero has three helpers, Luoyang has think tanks like Hua Qi and Amber around him, and with his novels, he can also make a big splash.

"Mr. Zhang Cheng, you will announce the next thing."

Ma Jue looked at the head of the Longguo News Agency and said respectfully.

Zhang Cheng nodded, took the microphone, bowed to the audience, and then said: "Okay, before the award ceremony, I will say one thing."

"Our Dragon Country is the center of the world. In terms of economy and culture, it has reached the top of the world, but to be honest, in terms of entertainment development, it is not the top. This is not in line with our status as a great power. For this reason, the country has held several meetings to discuss and decided to implement a series of policies for this."

The audience nodded seriously. This is a fact. Dragon Country is obviously a great power in the East, but the development of entertainment is relatively stagnant, which undoubtedly makes many people feel depressed.

"There are island countries in the east and the United States in the west, not to mention the countries in the north and south. In terms of comprehensive strength, they are not as good as us, but in terms of cultural and entertainment influence, we are weaker than them. This is a shadow in the hearts of Dragon people. When foreign novels are popular in our country and top the list, when foreign movies are rampant in the box office during our golden period, and when their cultural entertainment is widely spread in Dragon Country, we can't help but think, should we do something at this time?"

"This is not a war, this is just a competition, in a harmonious way. There is no war in our world - a world of peace and prosperity, so the only thing that can compete is the development of culture and entertainment. But Longguo is not afraid of competition. I am not afraid, and I hope everyone will not be afraid. Strive, fight, and surpass. It's that simple."

Zheng Cheng is talking, and the audience is listening.

Luoyang is also listening, listening very seriously, and empathizing.

In the past life, China was in this situation. Foreign stars were worth much more than domestic ones, foreign novels were best-sellers in China, and foreign movies broke records in China again and again. What China could do was to pay for excellent foreign works while lamenting the domestic failure.

"So the first measure we are going to implement is the star rating system,"

Zheng Zhang looked at the audience with a serious expression: "The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. When your rating reaches a certain height, you are a role model. As a role model, you must have your own solid works, otherwise your rating will drop. I hope everyone is worthy of their rating."

Speaking of this, Cheng Zhang suddenly laughed: "Star rating has actually been prepared for a long time. The reason why it is not implemented until today is that the information required to collect is extremely cumbersome. We have been preparing for several years. Now we can finally let this system go online with confidence and guarantee true fairness."
