10 February 2014
Premier Li Keqiang earlier chaired a State Council executive meeting to make plans for the collaborative development of cultural and creative industries, design services and related industries.
The meeting pointed out that cultural and creative industries and design services have high value-added and intellectual property value and low consumption and pollution. Relying on innovation to boost the development of cultural and creative industries, design services and other new and high-end services and promote their collaboration with the relevant industries is an important aspect of economic restructuring. It will contribute to the improvement of the quality of products and services in meeting the diverse demands of the masses, as well as lead to the emergence of new business formats, boost employment and promote the transformation and upgrade of industries.

Implement the plan for fostering cultural, creative and design talents and support a new model of human resources cultivation that gives due consideration to academic education and vocational training and combines creative design with market management so that more talents can find ways to distinguish themselves.
