Radio and television bodies and online audiovisual platforms must not broadcast programs that cultivate idols, and must not broadcast variety and entertainment shows in which the children of celebrities participate. Talent show programs should strictly control the setup of the voting phase, and must not set up steps like off-site voting, hit lists, and assistance; and it is strictly prohibited to lead or encourage fans to indirectly spend money in voting through materialistic methods such as making purchases or membership charges; to resolutely resist negative fandom culture.
III. Resolutely resist turning everything into entertainment.

Resolutely resist the tendencies of over-entertainment such as hyping wealth and indulgence, private scandals, negative hot topics, vulgar 'online celebrity', and embracing ugliness without standards.

Advocate and encourage performers and guests to take on social responsibility and participate in public interest programming.

VI. Carry out professional and authoritative artistic appraisals. Persist in the correct political orientation, public opinion guidance, value tendencies, promoting truth, goodness, and beauty; rebutting falsehood and ugliness, giving full play to the role of value guidance, spiritual guidance, and aesthetic enlightenment. Put social benefit and social values up front, unify profound thought, exquisite artistry, and excellent production, to appraise programming seriously and objectively. Rationally consider quantitive indexes like audience numbers and click rates and increase the extent and wide use of "Chinese Audiovisual Big Data".
VII. Give Full Play to the Role of Industry Organizations.

Take a clear stance and criticize bad phenomena and negative models in the industry, resolutely oppose insider culture and bad industry habits, to preserve a positive atmosphere in the industry.
VIII. Truly perform management duties. Departments for the administration of radio and television should increase their political positions, earnestly implement responsibility systems for ideological work, further constrict management responsibility by territory, by host, and entity responsibility; and take control of cultural programs' orientation, content, personnel, compensation, and publicity. Pay attention to attentively listening to the people's voice, actively responding the people's concerns, and resolutely saying 'no' to illegality and immorality, star-making, making everything into entertainment, and 'traffic supremacy', so that the main themes and positive energy fill the space of radio, television, and online audioviduals.
Notice is hereby given.
