With the development of economy, the concept of tourism has changed slightly.

When we are looking at the tourism industry today，Including these words that may not be avoided when expanding our business in the industry，  

The first point is that we particularly emphasize consumption upgrade，Including future discussions may be closely centered around this。

The second word is cultural tourism consumption。Current situation of tourism industry，Industry shape change 188bet app download consumption、Upgrading the development trend of cultural tourism consumption。

Everyone has seen the development of GDP last year，If you make a comparison，GDP development in the first half of 2016，Judging from the growth rate of primary, secondary and tertiary industries，All the tourism industries we are engaged in are actually much higher than the growth rate of comprehensive GDP。During peak period，It reached nearly 15% on November last year，The data will be even faster this year。In other words，The development speed of tourism should be more than twice the GDP development speed，From this perspective, the development of this industry has a very good macro background。

Everyone can feel some basic conditions of the tourism industry in the past two years，B2B trading platforms have had troubles one after another、Innovation in the tourism industry also has challenges、Including the decline in the hotel industry、There may be nothing to sell in the scenic area, but now only about one-third can still survive，Now the entire industry is facing the problem of overall growth and local contradictions that are very prominent。

Compare the GDP of China and the United States，In total GDP，Our per capita GDP in 2015 was more than 8,000 US dollars，At the end of last year, we exceeded 9,000 US dollars。

When GDP reaches 4,000 US dollars，There are more comprehensive requirements for travel experience，This is not just reflected in sightseeing tours。Currently，Only 4% of us have passports，Nearly 90% of Chinese people have never been abroad，That is, no passport，The proportion in the United States is 35%。The number of flights per capita in China is 0.5 times，188bet app download The United States is 2.5 times，The United States’ GDP is 5 times that of ours，So our future tourism development volume will still grow 5 times。

Average number of trips，China is 2.9 times，The United States is 6.9 times。For overseas travel, China is 1.200 million，200 million in 2025，China spends 100 billion abroad during the New Year，This number is equivalent to Wanda’s combined investment in all regions of the world。So our consumption power is amazing，And outbound tourism will have greater and faster development in the future。Middle class，China currently has only 200 million middle class people，Accounting for 20%，But the United States accounts for nearly 40%。Nearly 1 billion mobile Internet users，Per capita travel spending is nearly 10,000 yuan，So our tourism industry in China is facing a period of great growth opportunities。

Of course，The industry also has pain points。One is the insufficient supply of high-quality products and services，The second industrial value chain has low transmission efficiency，We have no shortage of resources，But the resources are converted into products，Products combine current consumer needs and consumer upgrade service systems，The gap in the middle is still huge。

In my opinion，What exactly is tourism？We may have to redefine the industry。

The future of tourism may change，It’s leisure、Cultural Tour。Tools for connecting upstream tourism，High-quality products and services of the hotel，Offline channels，How to match these resources is a real problem that our industry must solve。

Tourism is an entity that upgrades consumption，It is also a carrier of cultural 188bet online sports betting communication。Future way of traveling，Also from sightseeing to upgraded lifestyle，From the original You Shopping Entertainment，An experience that may become more integrated in the future。This is inseparable from the transmission of benefits from the industrial chain。So tourism is a carrier，Various lifestyles are the way it exists。

The basic elements of our previous travel may need to be gradually combined with a more in-depth experience。It is also a vivid and profound interpretation of lifestyle。So the future of tourism must be integrated with lifestyle。

Of course，Future tourism may not just be concentrated in the middle section，Possible future tourism and sports、Outdoor、Study Tour、There are many intersections in every section of transportation，Every intersection will be a new travel experience、Lifestyle。So there is more value here that deserves our deep exploration。

From the reform and opening up to the present, the third consumption upgrade is actually the stage our industry is currently in，At this stage we need to reconsider our products、How resources can form products that are more in line with consumers’ upgrade needs，How can the efficiency of our industrial chain be more relevant to the younger generation，Post-80s、Post-90s、After 00，In this new era，Mainstream consumer groups，The consumer demand of their 200 million middle class people is what our industry needs to pay more attention to。

If we look at the entire industrial structure，Resource、Product、Channel、Marketing， In the traditional tourism sector, hotels, airlines, etc.，More experience methods and travel methods may be gradually added 188bet Online Sports Betting and Casino in the future。The maturity of the entire industry，The maturity of tourism is currently relatively developed in terms of marketing and channels，Consumption perfection formed over the past ten years，But there are currently big pain points on both ends of resources and products，Education、Sports、Entertainment similar。

So we see that the real crossover part in the future should have greater opportunities in resources and products，These two ends should be the rediscovery of the value of the entire industry in the future、Redefine、A beginning of reconnection。
