China Ushering in a Golden Age of Game and Amusement
According to World Tourism Organization, when a country or region’s per capita GDP passes 5,000 USD, its tourism will reach the point of maturity. According to statistics, by 2015, China’s per capita GDP has exceeded 8,000 USD, which means that tourism products, such as theme parks, water parks, etc, will be in great demand. It is estimated that by 2020, there will be another 64 newly built theme parks in China with up to 166.3 million potential visitors, attracting 23.8 billion USD of investment.

Guangdong Province, the Pacesetter of China’s Game and Amusement Industry
−According to a research done by TEA/AECOM, among the world’s top 10 theme parks, 4 are Chinese enterprises and Guangdong province is the cradle of 3 of them. Besides, Guangdong is also the province that has the most theme parks in China. These remarkable achievements are the result of Guangdong’s thriving game and amusement industry. It is said that almost 90% of China’s game machines and amusement equipment are made in Guangdong and a considerable part of their products are exported to over 100 countries and regions. Game and amusement industry has become one of the main pillars that is supporting Guangdong’s economy.
−As such an important source of fiscal revenue, Guangdong’s game and amusement industry has been receiving much attention from the local government.
−What’s more, Guangdong Game & Amusement Culture Industry City(GDGameCity)
has been confirmed as one of the key tourism projects supported by the government. Its plan is to become China’s biggest game and amusement research and development base and technological innovation center in the next five years, and ultimately the world’s most influential trading center of game and amusement products and derivatives.
To sum up, Chinese residents are looking for more game and amusement products to meet their spiritual needs and the Chinese government is also strongly supporting the development of game and amusement industry. Under these two stimulus, China’s game and amusement market is entering into a prosperous period and it is time for you to expand your business to China.
