The overproduction in the first and second industries will naturally be transferred to the third industry and even to the cultural industry,leading to the overproduction of cultural commodities,which coincides with the fashionable trend of modern daily life.When cultural production becomes a fashion,its true meaning is lost,and the whole production is reduced to a form.This formal production is characterized by mechanic duplication,turning cultural production into a meaningless process of reproduction,instead of something to meet the cultural demand of people.The simple repetition of cultural signs leads to the loss of meaning.To resolve such a crisis,we need to reconsider our criteria for meaning,although it does not mean we have to reject all our former criteria for cultural production.%随着第一和第二产业出现大量产能过剩，这些过剩产能就会转移到第三产业包括文化产业中，并由此引发文化产品的“过剩”，这种文化产品生产过剩的情况与日常生活的时尚化是一致的。当文化生产时尚化的时候，文化生产的实际意义消失，而形式意义盛行。这种形式化的文化生产表现为机械化的复制。这种简单复制的文化生产是为了使文化生产得以维系而进行的“再生产”，而不是为了满足人们的精神需要而进行的生产。这种“再生产”实际上就是文化符号的简单重复，而简单重复的生产导致意义的消失。后现代文化的危机表现为意义消失的危机。面对这样的危机，我们虽然应该重新审视我们的意义标准，但是，我们却不能因此彻底否定文化中的意义标准。
