30 years of cross-border dialogue: Big names in book, painting, sports, travel and media industries meet Wulingyuan

There is Wulingyuan in Hunan, where ancient objects create a countryside. Three thousand strange peaks are lingering in the clouds, and there are gods at the top of Zhangjiajie. On the afternoon of the 29th, "Meet Zhangjiajie, 30 Years of Impressions" - Wulingyuan cross-border dialogue was held in Xiehe Township, Wulingyuan District, facing the sea of ​​clouds.

Famous people from various industries such as painting, calligraphy, tourism, language, sports, and media gathered in Wulingyuan and participated in the cross-border dialogue on the afternoon of the 29th to discuss their memories and imagination about Wulingyuan.

Wulingyuan District is a county-level administrative district established with the approval of the State Council in May 1988. The core scenic spot of Zhangjiajie City is located in Wulingyuan District. The entire Wulingyuan District has a total area of ​​397.58 square kilometers, of which the core scenic area is 217.2 square kilometers and the peripheral protection zone is 174 square kilometers. Wulingyuan has existed since ancient times, but until Wulingyuan District was established as a district, it had always been under the jurisdiction of different administrative districts.

With the development of the times, Chinese people pay more and more attention to poetry and distant places. In Wulingyuan District, the eternal love of Zhangjiajie, Huanglong Ancient Village, and Taohuaxi Happy Valley are ready for development, and the horn of key project construction has sounded; special rectification of "iron-fisted tourism" has been carried out, tourism law enforcement supervisors have been on duty, and the city's tourism and sightseeing bus lines have been opened... Looking at the success and growth of Wulingyuan, you can also get a glimpse of the changes in China's tourism industry.

Conversation summary

I came to Zhangjiajie for the first time 30 years ago, and I was very surprised. I read the beauty described by Mr. Wu Guanzhong as "raised in a boudoir and unknown to people".

Zhangjiajie was still called Dayong City at that time. When I first came here, I stayed in farmhouses when I went to Tianzi Mountain. I have been here many times in the past 30 years. Nowadays, the tourism infrastructure here has undergone earth-shaking changes, but the landscape of Wulingyuan has not changed. The development of the tourism industry here meets the needs of the country's future development.

——He Liwei, a famous writer, painter and photographer

I think if Zhangjiajie wants to be a high-end market for long-term residence and vacation, it has already met the conditions. In this case, the value orientation of vacation and the value orientation of natural landscapes and even the collision of cultural values are not exactly the same. Therefore, the future may be a pluralistic entity, because the comprehensive nature and culture of Zhangjiajie can accommodate such a diverse market.

In the future, I am particularly optimistic that Zhangjiajie will become a comprehensive natural heritage site. In the future, the number of people traveling to Zhangjiajie may gradually decline, and the benefits will gradually increase.

——Xu Chunxiao, Executive Vice President of Hunan Tourism Research Institute and Vice President of Tourism College of Hunan Normal University

How can you know Zhangjiajie without arriving at Wulingyuan? Wulingyuan's tourism talent is like "Kuri".

Curry's three-pointers are too accurate, and it is easy to overlook his breakthrough and passing abilities; people will say that the peaks of Wulingyuan are too beautiful, but few see its cultural connotation.

——Su Qun, famous basketball commentator and editor-in-chief of "Basketball Pioneer"

Every Hunanese is inspired by Zhangjiajie and influenced by Wulingyuan. No matter how beautiful the photos taken by the camera are, only by visiting Zhangjiajie Wulingyuan in person can you deeply and truly understand its beauty.

——Ding Wenshan, Hunan Satellite TV channel voice, national first-level announcer, well-known TV dubbing artist and young language artist

Wulingyuan should explore local culture and help tourism enter the high-end market, especially folk culture. A landscape supports a person, and this "person" is the most precious thing. Don't go through the Internet, but feel it on the ground and experience life that you can't experience elsewhere.

This time I went to Wulingyuan and saw many old artists on Xibu Street, including three-stick drums, shadow puppets, and Nuo operas. I was very surprised.

——Xu Tianshu, chairman of Jiari Design, manager of Huiwuxuan Cultural Salon, and important promoter of Huxiang Design

The first time I came to Zhangjiajie was exactly 30 years ago. I graduated in 1987 and started working. I came to Zhangjiajie in 1988 and visited Suoxiyu, Jinbianxi, Huangshi Village, Huanglong Cave, and Baofeng Lake. If Zhangjiajie at that time could be compared to a girl, she would be a rural girl without makeup.

When I came to Wulingyuan this time, I felt very different. Whether it’s the shadow play and Nuo opera on Xibu Street, homestays such as Zishan Manju and Xibu Street Inn, or the stories of Baofeng Lake, these have all left a cultural mark on Wulingyuan’s landscape. Now Wulingyuan has transformed into an educated and modern lady.

Our media should pay more attention to Zhangjiajie and promote Zhangjiajie. Zhangjiajie belongs to Zhangjiajie people, Hunan people, Chinese people, and the world.

——Kong Zeping, deputy general manager of Hunan Hongwang New Media Group and chairman of Hunan Hongwang Cultural Communication Co., Ltd.

In the past 10 years, I have been to Wulingyuan more than 100 times. The mountains and rivers here are still beautiful, but tourism development has also encountered many bottlenecks. For example, in terms of outbound tourism, you have done well in the Japanese and Korean markets in the past, but now you are focusing on the European and American markets. Can you still grow bigger and stronger? This requires exploring the differences in the market itself and analyzing their appetites.

——Zhang Yong, General Manager of Hunan Hongwang Cultural Communication Co., Ltd.
