To transform cultural industries into cultural and creative industries, the priority is economic restructuring, and specifically upgrading low-end manufacturing through creation. From the Internet way of thinking to "Internet+," from theories to practice, high technologies represented by the Internet have deeply integrated with culture, thereby opening a new dimension of innovation and creation to enhance the dynamics of creative industries and a creative economy. The fast-growing maker movement is an excellent strategy for China to develop into a great country of originality. Core contents of this movement include facilitating national originality, achieving leaping development of originality of our cultural and creative industries, promoting Internet celebrity economy, VR, AR, and other new experiments and new forms. What should correspond to "Internet+" and "Maker space" is "Culture+". It is vital to notice that culture, esthetics and ethics are in fact missing in the development of our cultural and creative industries.展开更多

What's more, the fast-growing internet has still provided the industry with more possibilities of further development. Analysis suggests that the internet inevitably optimizes China's cultural and creative industry by re-integration of massive resources, promoting its sustainable innovation. Thus the new industrial chain is created, and more profits would flood into the companies in this field in the meantime. In other words, the ecosystem of China's cultural and creative industry is established in this way, which would enjoy a prosperous prospect for sure.展开更多

The UN's decade–long promotion of cultural diversity coincides with the advancement of China's cultural and creative industries; however, China's situation is different from the creative economy advocated by the UN in terms of developmental logic. The policy of cultural diversity provides a basis for the UN to push forward the development of cultural and creative industries in developing countries. It is derived from the developmental theories of developed countries, which regard creativity(innovation) as a "technique" and overlook its uniqueness. The digital revolution has never given fair play to developing countries which explains why the UN's promotion of cultural diversity has not yet helped developing countries to substantially increase their exports of cultural goods and services in the past ten years. Nevertheless, the development of the in ternet and digital technology may create an opportunity for developing countries to catch up with and surpass their developed neighbors. China's unique approach to cultural and creative development may serve as a model for the international community to pursue sustainable development in the future.展开更多

With the rapid development of the city, the phenomena of“large-scale demolition and construction” and “a thousand cities having the same pattern” are becoming more and more serious, and the urban characteristics containing rich historical information are gradually lost.

In the first stage, micro-entities concentrate geographically in a creative industrial cluster in search of resources. The second stage reflects the need for building identity. Finally, the third stage is the outcome of multi-dimensional expansion. As a creative industrial cluster develops, its focus moves from geographic concentration to division of labor and the creation of novel systems. Using this three-stage framework, this paper conducts an empirical study on Beijing's 798 District ("798"). Our study finds that the "self-destruction "phenomenon (which appeared after 798 had reached the stage of network development in a low-level capacity) is essentially the product of a squeezing effect of commercial prosperity on art production. Our study further examines four models of art-commerce integration and explains the ways in which creative industrial clusters are different from conventional industrial clusters: a creative cluster is a platform of integration for culture, commerce, and technology. Its course of development is characterized by novelty, emergence of identity through interfacing, and network cooperation.展开更多
