Future City opened for business, and business was booming on the opening day. Tourists from far and wide came to Future City. In addition to a large number of Chinese tourists, there were also some foreign tourists.
Especially for some Singaporeans, they are very close to Future City. It is also very convenient to get there, just a few minutes by ferry.
For the people of Singapore, Future City makes them feel very complicated. On the one hand, many of them also think that Future City is good. It is good to settle down in Future City and go to work in Singapore.
On the other hand, Future City has taken away business from Singapore. Among other things, the most obvious one is tourism.
With the two places so close together, there is no difference in climate. In terms of attractiveness, Singapore may have been more attractive than Malaysia in the past.
Especially for Chinese tourists, it is more convenient to travel to Singapore. But now that Future City has opened, it has suddenly taken away Singapore's advantages.
Although Chinese make up the majority in Singapore, it is still far behind Future City. Future City is simply a Chinese city.
Moreover, it is managed by Longteng Group, so Chinese tourists trust them more. When they come to Future City, many Chinese people don’t feel like they are going abroad, but they feel like they are traveling domestically.
Whether it's life or shopping, or something needs to be dealt with, everyone finds it very convenient.
Especially after seeing the police officers and Longteng Group security guards wearing Chinese uniforms, they felt even more secure.
Only when you go abroad can you appreciate the importance of this sense of security. Now Future City provides Chinese tourists with this unprecedented sense of security.
The goal of the future city is very clear, it is to be built for Chinese people. The main tourists it attracts are Chinese tourists.
At present, Chinese outbound tourists are a very large group. Especially the Southeast Asian market has become a popular tourist destination in China in recent years.
Now that Future City has opened, it has snatched away many tourists.
This phenomenon actually manifested itself before Future City even opened.
Originally, this season was supposed to be the peak tourist season. However, the number of hotel bookings in March across Southeast Asian countries has dropped significantly.
Especially in Singapore, hotel bookings are 40% less than in previous years, and the number of tourist groups has also been significantly reduced.
There are also many customers who have booked hotels who have canceled their reservations. This is also the case in Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, Indonesia and other countries.
In order to commemorate the opening of Future City, Longteng Group launched tourism projects that are too cheap and cost-effective.
In fact, there is no profit at that price, and there is even a slight loss.
However, Longteng Group does not calculate economic accounts in this way. The travel agency loses money, and Longteng Group makes money.
Although they don't go to shopping stores, after these people come, they can't help but go shopping and buy things.
There is a lot of free time every day, and there are many new things in the future city. When you come here, you will be willing to go shopping.
It doesn't matter if you don't shop at Longteng Group. After you come once, go back and promote it, and more people will come.
Longteng Group makes long-term money, and no matter how good the advertisement is, it is not as good as the reputation of consumers. The time and quantity of special offers are limited.
After Future City becomes famous, it will be the time to make big money in the future.
Not only Southeast Asian countries are affected, but China is also greatly affected. Especially Haicheng, the impact is even greater.
Haicheng has an excellent geographical location. Because of its special geographical location, it has become the favorite city for many people to visit in winter.
The tourism industry has developed rapidly in recent years, but after rapid development, it has turned into a deformity. Housing prices have risen like a rocket.
All kinds of consumption are also increasing continuously, and I have not forgotten that hotel prices have risen horribly.
At the same time, the infrastructure cannot keep up with development. Whether it is medical care, education or transportation, it is not good.
The rapid development of Lanhai City has taken away many customers from Haicheng. However, the climate of Lanhai City cannot be compared with Haicheng, especially in winter.
But now that Future City has opened, it will be a fatal blow to Haicheng.
Housing prices are cheaper than Haicheng, and the climate is even better than Haicheng. The environment is more beautiful than Haicheng, the infrastructure is better than Haicheng, and prices are cheaper than Haicheng.
And there are no black spots, no people are being tricked or killed, and no Northeasterners are causing trouble. Even the round-trip air tickets are even cheaper than Haicheng.
The future city is a sure blow to Haicheng. When the future city project was under construction, Haicheng's housing prices began to decline.
But now that the Future City has opened, the number of people traveling to Haicheng has obviously decreased significantly. They are all flying anyway, so it would be great to go to the Future City.
"Coordinated in Haicheng, it feels like there are fewer people on the streets than in previous years..."
"Nonsense, everyone is going to Future City, who is going to Haicheng..."
"That's right, Haicheng is a scam. Where were we planning to go? But the hotel price has increased several times..."
"Hey, I originally planned to go to Haicheng to celebrate the New Year this year. I wanted to rent it for a month, but I asked about it. The house with two bedrooms and one living room starts from 18,000 yuan a month. I'll go..."
"Haicheng just played himself to death..."
"The housing prices are abnormal, but the infrastructure is very poor..."
"What's so good about Haicheng? I'm from Haicheng and I've wanted to leave for a long time..."
"Haicheng is fine in winter, but really uncomfortable in summer..."
Domestic netizens started talking, and Haicheng became the focus of everyone's discussion. Countless people complained about Haicheng.
Especially those who have been there, many people say that going once is enough.
In this Internet age, everything spreads too fast. Although Haicheng has been working hard to improve the tourism environment in recent years, the improvement has not been much.
Haicheng, which is kidnapped by high housing prices, is not easy to change. Haicheng has few industries, and its only pillar industry is tourism.
Tourism has driven the real estate industry. Now that tourism is failing, problems will naturally arise in the real estate industry.
Chain reaction, the opening of Future City has caused a series of chain reactions. But this chain reaction has just begun.
Everyone knows that as Future City has been open for longer and longer and its reputation is getting better and better, Future City will be more prosperous in the future.
In addition to the tourism industry, the follow-up actions of Chinese enterprises with Future City as their bridgehead are the focus of everyone's attention.
The opening of Future City means that the bridgehead has been built. Then the pace of these Chinese companies in ASEAN will continue to expand.
There will be a fierce fight in the ASEAN market between Chinese companies, ASEAN companies, European and American companies, Japanese companies, Korean companies, etc.
ASEAN is a big market, and no one is willing to give up this market. Now Chinese companies have become one, which has also allowed some companies in other countries to learn from it, especially Japanese companies and Korean companies. They are also now planning to use the future
We are investing in ASEAN countries based on the city’s model and are preparing to compete head-on with Chinese companies.
