Chapter 4023

The atmosphere at the dinner table was always very good under Gu Fanghua's adjustment. And after Su Xinghui knew she was Mi Yunmei's friend, his attitude towards her was different. So the three of them drank and ate hot pot happily, and the atmosphere was quite good.

As they talked, Gu Fanghua talked about the work of the Publicity Department. She said, "Mayor Su, Xiaoya, although I am the Publicity Department Head, I am a newcomer. How to carry out the work of the Linshan Municipal Party Committee Publicity Department in the future still requires your advice."

Su Xinghui waved his hand and said, "I am the mayor. The work of the Publicity Department is not within my scope of responsibility. Don't ask me."

Lu Xiaoya also said, "I am the deputy head. My work must be completed under your arrangement as the head, so I have nothing to say."

Gu Fanghua teased, "Xiaoya, then you are deliberately making a fool of me. I know nothing about the situation in Linshan City. Can't you help me?"

Only then did Lu Xiaoya nod and say, "Okay, then I will tell you about some of the work we have carried out recently."

Lu Xiaoya told Gu Fanghua about some of the recent work of the Linshan Municipal Party Committee Publicity Department. Of course, the most important work of the Linshan Municipal Party Committee Publicity Department recently was inviting the CCTV film crew to shoot a special documentary about those ordinary manual laborers and scientific research workers.

Gu Fanghua listened very carefully and nodded from time to time. As a cadre in the publicity department, she naturally had a deep understanding of the recent spirit of the Central Committee. She knew that this special documentary must have been filmed to cooperate with the recent spirit of the Central Committee.

After Lu Xiaoya finished speaking, Gu Fanghua nodded and said, "You really have a big hand. You invited the CCTV film crew to shoot a ten-episode special documentary. This documentary will definitely be very popular when it is filmed, and it also fits the current spirit of the Central Committee."

Lu Xiaoya said, "Yes, now the main focus of our Linshan City publicity department is on ordinary laborers and scientific researchers, letting the whole society regain respect for them, instead of respecting whoever has money, or desperately promoting those entertainment stars. We think these are incorrect values."

Gu Fanghua nodded. Yes, the values of this society have become a bit distorted. The current society is almost all about money. Even their television stations use ratings to speak, rather than broadcasting more programs with practical significance.

In this era, some signs of later traffic stars have already appeared. Some stars have no skills, but because they look beautiful, they are sought after by television stations. They even learn from those Korean stars, making themselves look neither male nor female. Yet, such people have a market and can make a lot of money.

In this era, those traffic stars can get a reward of millions of yuan for filming a TV series or appearing in a variety show once. Is this number reasonable for those ordinary laborers and outstanding scientists who may not be able to earn it in their lifetime? Obviously unreasonable.

And where is the root cause of all this? Isn't it because of the television station's pursuit of these stars? This pursuit itself is problematic.

It's not that our TV programs cannot have variety shows, TV series, or movies, but there must be high-quality variety shows, high-quality TV series, and movies. This is a question of guidance. If you always show the audience low-quality programs, the audience's taste will naturally become like this.

Facts have proved that high-quality programs are not without a market. In Su Xinghui's previous life, some high-quality variety shows did not use traffic stars, and their ratings were still very high. A batch of high-quality TV series also did not use traffic stars, and the audience watched them with relish. Several excellent domestic movies, even if they all used newcomers and not a single star, created box office myths.

Most importantly, the previously invincible model of using traffic stars to bring box office has also gone bankrupt. After seeing what excellent movies are like, those money-grabbing movies starring traffic stars almost without exception flopped. The audience did not buy their account.

This shows that our audience still has appreciation. As long as you make excellent movies for them to watch, they will naturally not watch those inferior movies and inferior TV series made by traffic stars. And some traffic stars participated in variety shows to grab money, and their insincere performances in variety shows were also criticized one after another.

These problems are all worth deep reflection by the publicity department.

Gu Fanghua nodded and said, "Yes, the duty of our publicity department is to reasonably guide the audience, let them accept correct values imperceptibly, which is the good approach."

Su Xinghui said, "I think the publicity department should not go too far and engage in a one-size-fits-all administrative order. It should still reasonably guide according to market demand and film more programs that the broad masses of the people love to see and hear."

Gu Fanghua nodded and smiled, "I have remembered Mayor Su's instructions, and I will handle it according to Mayor Su's instructions."

Su Xinghui smiled, "Don't joke with me. I'm just a suggestion. I dare not say instructions. I can't instruct the Municipal Party Committee Publicity Department."

And even for enterprises with backward production capacity, one cannot simply eliminate them all with a "one-size-fits-all" approach. The truly good practice should be for the government to use policies to help them carry out technical transformation, turning backward production capacity into advanced production capacity, and turning low-quality GDP into high-quality GDP. Through this process, industrial upgrading can be completed.

And in this process, the policies the government can implement include tax incentives, assistance with project transformation funds, preferential financing interest rates, etc. In this way, the government does not need to provide too much funding to help enterprises carry out technical transformation.

Of course, if such backward production capacity cannot take advantage of the policy tailwind to complete industrial upgrading this time, then they can only be washed away by the tide and eliminated. This is also the natural law of survival of the fittest and is unavoidable. What the government needs to do is to try its best to help them complete industrial upgrading.

Several people also discussed the main work focus of the Publicity Department recently. In general, the main work focus of the Publicity Department recently is to cooperate with the recent spirit of the Central Committee's policies, promote those ordinary laborers and scientific researchers, and focus on reflecting the great achievements of Linshan City in science and technology recently.

These achievements include a series of major achievements of Hanhai Technology, a series of breakthroughs in automobile manufacturing technology by Ernest Automobile Manufacturing Co., Ltd., breakthroughs in LCD screens by Xuanwu Technology, progress in lithography machines by Hengxing Microelectronics, achievements in anti-cancer drugs by Mi's Pharmaceutical, and progress in coal chemical technology by Linshan Coal Chemical Group, etc.

Speaking of which, in recent years, Linshan City has had so many gratifying achievements, many of which are scientific and technological achievements that are leading in the world. This is really a huge miracle, and it also makes people see the huge potential of China's science and technology.

These achievements should still be promoted frequently, and they cannot be kept in the boudoir without anyone knowing. Such promotion can make the broad masses have more confidence in the country, have a better understanding of China's scientific and technological achievements, make young people more interested in science and technology, and let more young people devote themselves to such careers.

Gu Fanghua invited Su Xinghui and Lu Xiaoya to dinner today, and she did have the intention of asking for advice. She knew nothing about Linshan City, and she really had no bottom in her heart about how to enter the role as soon as possible. So, asking Su Xinghui and Lu Xiaoya for advice was very normal.

Before she came to Linshan, Mi Yunmei did tell her some things about Su Xinghui, telling her to find Su Xinghui for help if she had anything. So, there was the dinner of her inviting Su Xinghui and his wife today. In the past few days, she and Lu Xiaoya also had a very good relationship. Lu Xiaoya's relationship with her is getting better and better. In the future, in the Publicity Department, with Lu Xiaoya's help, she, the Publicity Department Head, can also stand firm as soon as possible.

After eating for more than an hour, the meal was finished. Gu Fanghua has been living in the Municipal Government Guest House these days. She is here alone and has not moved into the Standing Committee building for the time being. Living alone in the Municipal Government Guest House is quite good.

Of course, she still has to abide by the regulations of the Municipal Government. After living here for a period of time, she still has to move into the Standing Committee building, otherwise, when Cao Yuanhao comes back, he will definitely have opinions.

Having said that, Cao Yuanhao is currently assisting in the disaster area and will not be able to return to his original post for at least three years, so he cannot worry about having any opinions on Gu Fanghua for the time being.

After Gu Fanghua served as the Linshan Municipal Party Committee Publicity Department Head, she was also very hard-working in her work. Her work ability was quite good, and since she had just arrived in Linshan, she naturally hoped to make some achievements, so she worked tirelessly.

Gu Fanghua is not only hard-working but also has her own set of working methods. After all, she is a professional from a television station. Therefore, in a short period of time, the work effect of the Linshan Municipal Party Committee Publicity Department has also reached a higher level. This is also something that makes Su Xinghui very gratified. Now, the work on the publicity front is very important, which is related to the issue of value orientation. Being able to have such a Publicity Department Head can be considered very good news for Linshan.
