“…where F ij represents the tourism cooperation links between country i and country j; T i and T j are the number of tourists in country i and country j, respectively; I i and I j are the tourism income of country i and country j, respectively; and D ij is the geographical distance between country i and country j. However, spatial distance [51], time distance [87], and cultural distance [88], etc., can influence the intensity of tourism cooperation to a certain extent. The aspects that affect tourism cooperation make it necessary to modify the gravity model instead of using a single gravity model.…”

Tourism cooperation is an essential element for tourism development in China-ASEAN countries and has made a significant economic contribution to destinations. This study investigates the structure of tourism cooperation in China-ASEAN relations and identifies a set of factors that affect tourism cooperation from a network perspective. By employing social network analysis, the results indicate that the scale of cooperation is small, and the efficiency is not high, although the restrictions on cooperation between countries are reduced. The findings also indicate that differences in the political system, security, population density, and language can promote tourism cooperation, while differences in governance, income, and consumption level impede tourism cooperation. The research results may assist China-ASEAN countries to formulate tourism strategies suitable for international cooperation and national differences.

“…Finally, this study explores the internal mechanism of film-induced tourism. This study found that in previous research on film and television tourism, scholars had discussed the mechanism of film-induced tourism from identity conversion ( Kantarci et al, 2017 ; Du et al, 2020 ), motivation transfer ( Rittichainuwat and Rattanaphinanchai, 2015 ; Hetland et al, 2016 ; Oviedo-García et al, 2016 ), and demand change ( Kim and Kim, 2018 ; Qiang et al, 2019 ; Teng, 2021 ), however, the research mostly stayed at the basic stage and did not deeply explore its internal mechanism. This study has introduced “empathy” as the medium in which the mechanism occurs and has profoundly expounded that “empathy” as a medium can promote the audience-to-tourist identity change, film watching-to-traveling motivation transfer, and interest-to-expectation demand change, providing profound insights into the development of film and television tourism.…”

With the advent of the information age and advancement of digital technology, film and television tourism is developing rapidly under the joint action of the film industry and tourism industry, and has become a crucial form of cultural and entertainment consumption for individuals to pursue a better life in the new age. This study designs three experiments from the perspectives of identity conversion, motivation transfer, and demand change to conduct an empirical study on the mediating role of empathy for further exploring the internal mechanism of film-induced tourism in film and television tourism. The findings suggest that the three mediation hypotheses are all valid, indicating that film-induced tourism involves identity conversion from audiences to visitors, motivation transfer from watching to traveling, and demand change from interest to expectation through emotional media.

“…The Confucius Institute's impact on the volume of foreign tourism to China grows initially and subsequently declines as cultural distance increases. 25 Particularly, several studies reveal that stronger contract enforcement and greater judicial independence promote the development of tourism. 26 A substantial body of research demonstrates that air quality has a significant impact on tourists' decisions and that demand for tourism is increasingly susceptible to climate change.…”

This study employs a panel econometric model to assess and examine the relationship between inbound tourism to China and air quality, using data on air quality and inbound tourism at the provincial level in China from 2013 to 2017. It also considers how travelers perceive risk. According to the findings, there has been an increase in foreign tourists visiting China since 2013. However, the air quality index's representation of domestic air quality is not encouraging. Our studies using the fixed effect model demonstrate that domestic air quality has a considerable beneficial impact on the number of inbound tourists, which is still strong when utilizing the mixed effect and random effect models; in comparison to northern China, the impact of air quality in southern China is more clear. Our studies demonstrate that the ongoing decline in China's inbound tourism scale in recent years is strongly correlated with the quality of the country's air, which is influenced by each visitor's personal preferences. In order to improve China's reputation in the global tourism market, the report concludes by outlining solutions to address this impact. These methods include maintaining the promotion of environmental governance while also tightly integrating tourism marketing.
