The Chinese government is putting a limit on how much pay its movie stars get. The government says that actors getting very high salaries is bad for society. A lot of actors try to avoid paying taxes(税收). Government officials said they want to stop "money worship" in society and in the movie industry because money is not the most important thing in life. The government also wants to try and stop a celebrity(名人) culture from developing. It says many young people are "blindly chasing celebrities" and turning them into heroes, which is giving people a false idea about what life is really like. The government said movies should benefit society, not movie star bank accounts.

The government has made a set of rules that tell movie production companies how to pay their movie stars. The salaries of actors will be less than 40 percent of the total cost of the movie and leading actors will receive no more than 70 percent for the entire cast. Many Chinese citizens said they support the new rules. One Chinese citizen wrote on social media: "Society has given them too much and they give nothing back. They do not teach young people about the value and importance of humility(谦逊)."
