Zhu Kening, president of the China Association of Performing Arts
In 2021, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic pushed China’s performing arts industry to explore the advantages of the internet and expand its room for development while creating more opportunities for further progress. According to the Development Plan of the Cultural Industry during the 14th Five-year Plan Period, a new development paradigm for the performing arts industry that boosts both online and offline performances as well as live and recorded performances will be established.
