In recent years, Chengdu has attached great importance to the development of inbound tourism.

This year's activities focused more on key image planning and promotion and the construction of global tourism carriers, and vigorously introduced international brand tourism enterprise operators to form strategic partnerships and contribute to Chengdu's development into a world-famous tourism city.

The reporter learned that the World Tourism Exchange China (WTE China) held in Haikou focused on China's inbound tourism. With the key objective of promoting the growth of China's inbound tourism, the Conference invited about 180 high-quality international merchants from North America, Europe and Australia to participate, who are overseas travel agencies or travel wholesalers that are selling or planning to sell Chinese travel products.

The Conference is an important opportunity for Chengdu to further consolidate and expand its inbound tourism market. Taking this opportunity and based on the successful hosting of the first "Global Merchants Gathering in Chengdu" event last year, Chengdu Municipal Bureau of Culture, Radio, Film and Tourism launched the "2019 Global Merchants Gathering in Chengdu" marketing event at the right time, focusing on the European and American markets in the form of "in-depth forum + research and inspection" to carry out exchanges, interaction and transaction support, and strive to promote the long-term effect of industry exchange and interaction and Chengdu tourism products listing and trading.

The "Global Merchants Gathering in Chengdu" event aims to help Chengdu build a world-famous tourism city and a world famous cultural and creative city, promote the "going out" of culture and "bringing in" of tourism, and build a "Global Tourism Merchant Strategic Partnership System for Chengdu Inbound Tourism" by inviting global mainstream channels and well-known travelling salesman to participate in the exhibition in Chengdu and inspect Chengdu market, and by matchmaking, networking and signing of strategic cooperation agreements with local major traveling salesmen to further improve the development of Chengdu inbound tourism, promote the development of high-quality business consumption mode in Chengdu and optimize the structure of tourism sector in Chengdu.

During the event last year, nearly 200 international travelling salesmen made an in-depth inspection on Chengdu's cultural tourism line products, and put forward many opinions and suggestions for Chengdu's inbound tourism promotion. At the same time, the event also awarded 10 distinguished industry representatives from the United Kingdom, Germany, Belgium, Italy and other countries the title of "Chengdu Tourism Global Promotion Ambassador". These personages cover the main outbound tourist market in Chengdu and the countries along the "Belt and Road", including industry leaders, travel experts, media representatives, online KOL, etc., who will continue to promote Chengdu in a global scale.

According to a personnel from Chengdu Municipal Bureau of Culture, Radio, Film and Tourism, the large-scale inbound tourism marketing activity of "Global Merchants Gathering in Chengdu" aims to develop more targeted overseas promotion programs by relying on overseas and outbound partners, and strive to help partners expand the local outbound tourism business to Chengdu to the greatest extent, promote the in-depth cooperation between partners and domestic high-quality large-scale tourism enterprises, and continuously expand Chengdu's overseas and outbound publicity.
