李瑞环同志曾在呼和浩特举行的内蒙古乌兰牧骑艺术节闭幕式上指出:繁荣文艺必须解放思想。文艺的根本任务是满足广大人民群众日益增长的文化生活需要。因此,我们在提倡创作健康有益、群众喜闻乐见作品的同时,也不反对政治思想上无害,艺术上较好,群众喜闻乐见的作品,只要不违及国家宪法和法律,就不要横加干涉。很显然这个精神是与当前的改革开放的政策是一脉相通的。与邓小平同志南行讲话精神是一致的。 Comrade Li Ruihuan pointed out at the Closing Ceremony of the Wuling Mu Riding Art Festival in Inner Mongolia held in Hohhot: To prosper the literature and art must emancipate the mind. The fundamental task of literature and art is to meet the growing needs of the masses of people in cultural life. Therefore, while promoting the creation of health benefits, the masses love to see the works, we are not opposed to works that are politically and ideologically sound, better in art, and loved by the masses. Do not interfere in any way as long as they do not violate the constitution and laws of the country. Obviously, this spirit is similar to the current policy of reform and opening up. It is consistent with the spirit of Comrade Deng Xiaoping’s speech in the south.
