Xinhua 10:29 -20100302
“To encourage private capital into public good”, which in the present is the country advocate, but on the whole country, private capital help transform the state-owned cultural institutions, and seek common development, there is little precedent. Hengshui Xi III Painting Co., Ltd. invested 22 million yuan to renovate theater people in Shijiazhuang, Hebei study completed within the art museum and Shijiazhuang three folk art museum to open at will early in April. As a city cultural system in the crack problem for the development of a state-owned cultural institutions try to move attracted wide attention.
People’s Theater transfiguration crafts museum
Not long ago, in Shijiazhuang plaque everywhere, commercial heart of Zhongshan West Road, a rather artistic temperament of the dark gray building unveiled, appeared in people’s Perspective. This is the theater floor by the people study the reconstruction of Hebei Shijiazhuang, three museums and within the painting folk art museum.
In people’s memory, the people of theater is an old and famous city theater, built by the Japanese in 1940, was named “Shihmen theater” to show the main Japanese film. 1947, Shihmen liberation, people’s government took over the theater was renamed the “People’s Hall.” August 7, 1948, North Provisional People’s Congress opening ceremony held here, Comrade Deng Xiaoping, the first secretary of the CPC Central Plains Bureau participated in the meeting, and at the opening ceremony and delivered speeches. In 1956, the people renamed the People’s Hall theater.
Theater floor in 1973 and rebuilt from the original layer to layer, then in 20 years time, the people of cinema in the capital can be said is that people’s first choice for entertainment, film market is booming and every good film release, viewers flooded. With its strategic location and good business reputation, the people of cinema box office revenue has been the whole province, and was awarded the Department of National Radio and Television “show advanced unit” by the Provincial Department of Culture named “theater of civilization”, many times was named “advanced unit in the province cinema system.”
But with the opening of the cultural market, diversified forms of entertainment to be a huge impact on film development. The original people of theater manager, now Shijiazhuang folk art museum An Shengxia recalled, 1997, the film began a decline that began more than cinema hall, old people’s theater because the facilities, keep up the development of modern films, box-office more and more depression. The worst time is only tens of dollars a day the box office. Particular theater is made of wood structure, there are significant security risk, because disrepair over the years has been listed as key units of fire hazards in urgent need of reconstruction and transformation.
Can not afford to build their own theater. In 2006, the provincial leadership’s support, they began to come to the capital for the development of painting art Hengshui Xi III Limited access, eventually entered into a collaboration, building arts and crafts museum.
Give up the film to do folk art, workers face a transition problem, such a strange area, theater leadership mind somewhat perturbed. An Shengxia said, we have to do half my life on film, and the film has a puzzling love, this time not to do a film, really reluctant to part with some. However, this is the reality! In order to develop and better survival, we must change our concepts, learning and progress.
Private capital into state-owned cultural facilities and to seek development of Wang Ziyong Shijiazhuang is the inner painting three of the eldest son of the founder Wang Xi. If the father will snuff bottle painting art open cases within the established school, gained world renown. Wang Ziyong industry in the development of folk art won success.
As inner painting art of second-generation successors, Wang Ziyong inner painting is the first system to accept the University of Fine Arts education. He created the study III Painting Co., Ltd. was named the top ten cultural enterprises in Hebei Province, is the third installment of the Ministry of Culture as a national demonstration bases of cultural industries, “Xi III” trademark was awarded Famous Brand of Hebei. In 2003, he break through conventional thinking, loans, built in the township of domestic painting art exhibition gallery, has developed more than 50 kinds of inside painting products, achievement of a new cultural industries.
Now, he built in the provincial capital Shijiazhuang, Hebei Xi III art museum, for the development of inner painting built a bigger stage.
Wang Ziyong said, Hengshui in painting called “wing faction”, it should be out of Hengshui, Hebei entered, then the country, all over the world. In fact, not only in painting, the other in Hebei Province as well as the country’s folk art products have it should be. Need to go out with a platform. Within the art museum built in Shijiazhuang is the best platform he chooses.
According to the plan, Museum Exhibition and sale of the first floor hall and room for sharing, will focus on the second floor within a painting show art, from Smoking, smoking materials, to have details of the types of snuff bottles, but also a lot of snuff bottle collection. Master Wang Xi-3 in particular, as the inner painting of the founder, will be here with personal boutique showroom.
Wang Ziyong plans to create a museum and cultural ecosystem play park, the art of making processes within the painting on display, make it live state of presentation, so that people who come to the museum, you can sit down to experience in painting, to expand understanding and promote domestic painting .
The third floor of the museum’s folk art museum in Shijiazhuang in Hebei and fine arts and crafts room. Will be displayed here and Hebei Shijiazhuang than 20 non-material cultural heritage, such as the Tangshan Shadow Play, Handan black pottery, etc.. These important cultural folk art is the root of Hebei. He would like to take this platform to promote art in Hebei province and sisters together.
The fourth floor of the museum could organize temporary exhibitions, art lectures, art salons. Fifth to the eighth floor as office space and some masters of arts and crafts studio. Arrangement from the eight floor layout can be seen, this is a thoroughly modern concept of the museum exhibition framework.
Because it is two to develop. Newly completed museum, a building two brands, namely “art museum Hebei Xi III” and “folk art museum in Shijiazhuang.” But in terms of management, is one of the two work together,. People’s Theater of the workers, who do their best in accordance with the principle of re-training posts will be.
In this collaboration, An Shengxia deeply felt the force as a cultural industry, the vitality and creativity of folk art. She said that folk art requires constant innovation to achieve development and survival. This cooperation, Wang Ziyong and others the kind of aggressive energy body and spirit, is the state-owned institutions lack.
In Wang Ziyong mind, he runs the museum, nor a traditional museum, he would create a museum to play within the painting and other folk art display window and platform, in the sense of heritage protection, more attention to development and utilization, extend the industrial chain craft to explore a heritage, conservation, innovation, research and development, sales, and then to protect the road.
He said that the investment in the museum building, would also like to play one on this subject. He hoped that the conditions of the entrepreneurs, the private capital to participate in the construction of public cultural facilities in the past, the provincial capital, “three years” is not only the hardware facilities, only the material, cultural synchronization can be achieved in the true sense of the “big change” .
Bold attempt to reform of cultural system

Li Yaofeng said at the time, they continued to discuss the issue of private capital to enter the field of culture is the trend. In front of this trend, internal staff must emancipate our minds, change their ideas. Finally reaching a consensus, as long as the benefit of the people, increasing the value of state assets to be able to do. Thus, in the process of bilateral cooperation, the people seize the theater three principles: first, the interests of employees is guaranteed. Second, no loss of state assets; Third, people career development.
On successful cooperation, the two sides unanimously believe that the leadership of the project first got the attention and support.
Wangzi Yong said that the cultural industry is a sunrise industry in the 21st century, the party and government attach great importance, indeed opportune cultural province in the provincial party committee proposed the idea, the State Council issued “to encourage private capital into public service career,” the preferential policies the father was encouraged to build in the provincial capital of Hebei Province in the idea of painting the museum made a report to the provincial leadership did not expect was the first time responses. In 2006, when he was Party Secretary Bai Keming comrades to make instructions, requests as soon as possible.

They have to apply to the municipal government plans to build a community theater 10 thousand square meters of public arts plaza, to achieve a performance every day. Public theater in accordance with the original area of 5000 square meters 1 to 1 ratio, by the developer supplies the remaining part of the repurchase by the government.
