On April 18-21, Jay Chou's concert, dubbed Carnival World Tour Hangzhou, was held at Hangzhou Olympic Sports Center Stadium. Despite raining last weekend, the event set a record, attracting 200,000 on-site audiences and 300,000 online audiences, driving Hangzhou's consumption of 1,316 million yuan.
Hangzhou witnessed a surge in tourism, attracting a staggering 4,722,000 tourists from elsewhere, marking the highest influx for the month of April. This influx had a significant impact on the city's hotel industry, with occupancy rates and room prices experiencing a notable increase. Notably, the occupancy rate of deluxe hotels reached a high of 67.2 percent.
Furthermore, an interesting thing that an elderly man at the West Lake sang with Jay Chou sparks intense discussions, with a remarkable circulation of over 600 million.
A netizen commented online, "The Asian Games improves Hangzhou's reputation, while a concert breeds people's love to Hangzhou."
