——China' s System of Film Dissemination and Its Expansion
of Space before the Founding of the Nanjing KMT Government(School of Arts, Beijing University, Beijing 100871, China)Abstract： Before the founding of the Nanjing KMT Government, or during the time from the introduction of film into China to 1927, the dissemination of China' s film mainly concerned with morals, having basically nothing with nation and state. The delay and absence of national consciousness, combined with unenlightened, oldfashioned value orientation and confused, disorderly official intervention, make China' s film of this period almost placed in extreme anarchy, resulting in a condition where the Chinese film, from the start, falls into the dislocation of target and effect, and also into the abruption of disseminator and audience. And the Chinese film and its audience in the early period of the Republic of China, during the course of the fast growing and gradual thriving of the Chinese film, realizes a kind of unruly freedom and abnormal pleasure, and, of course, tastes a kind of value puzzlement and identity anxiety.
