At the "Blagnac, France and Zigong, China Local Economic High-level Roundtable" held this year, the two cities agreed to carry out trade in equipment manufacturing, new materials and other fields, as well as economic and cultural exchanges and cooperation.
The "matchmaker" who facilitated the overseas exchange was Zigong Lantern company, which frequently set up exhibitions overseas. "Through the connection between Zigong and the French business community, both sides hope to deepen and expand the areas of cooperation through this connection mechanism." Zigong Lighting Group responsible person introduced, in Blagnac City, an area of up to 1000 mu of Sichuan cultural and creative park to be completed next year. After the completion of the Cultural and Creative Park, it will display colorful lanterns, dinosaurs and other unique Chinese cultural products, so that Zigong Lantern Fair can take root in France.
In July this year, Zigong Lantern Industry Association was established, and more than 80 lantern enterprises have realized the group development, and will join hands to build a "lantern aircraft carrier". "We will firmly focus on the mission of 'promoting cultural confidence and self-improvement to create new glory of socialist culture', take it as our duty to tell good stories about China, and actively contribute to enhancing the influence of Chinese civilization and promoting Chinese culture to the world." The person in charge of Zigong Culture, Radio, Television and Tourism Bureau said that Zigong Lantern Fair is gradually transforming from festival lantern fair to perennial scenic spot, characteristic culture to characteristic industry, and simple lantern exhibition to rejuvenating the city with lights. Under the great historical opportunity of the construction of Shuangcheng economic Circle in Chengdu-Chongqing region, "Made in Zigong" products linked by colored lanterns will continue to explore the international market, improve the comprehensive strength of the city, and let a lamp light up a city.
