"If you understand the three words of tone, style, and sentiment, you will fall in love with Shanghai as a tourist destination." said Lou Jiajun, a professor at the Tourism Department of the School of Business Administration at East China Normal University. As cultural and tourism consumption gradually presents a "strong demand" in urban life, how to make the city's traffic more abundant and the strengths become models, and enable people to go from strolling to reading, from checking in to swiping cards, is a topic that the Shanghai cultural and tourism industry has always been unable to avoid.
After 30 years of development, the Xujiahui commercial district has also attempted a new consumption model that integrates more types of business, tourism, cultural and sports. Now, in Xujiahui, four electronic display screens take turns rolling to broadcast various brand advertisements and public service advertisements. Among them, the most popular video content is undoubtedly the cute cat. Many people come to Xujiahui to catch a glimpse of the cute orange cat on the Meiluo City ball screen and the outdoor screen of the original Pacific Department Store's Xuhui store. They don't forget to do their homework in advance and occupy the favorable shooting terrain on the Xujiahui aerial corridor.

Coming for an advertising screen is just the beginning. During the May Day holiday this year, Xujiahui Business District cooperated with Miyou, the producer of the famous game Genshin Impact, to make an immersive promotion covering the whole business district for the latter's new game Collapse: Star Dome Railway. So, young people appeared in the business district dragging suitcases to check in, and many parents sat in cafes, waiting for their children to check in one interactive spot after another in the mall.

In August of this year, Xujiahui Business District collaborated with Dianping to launch the first offline market of the "Must Eat List", inviting 20 popular restaurants on the Shanghai Must Eat List and 2 Shanghai time-honored brands to showcase and sell characteristic signature cuisine. They also set up a variety of interactive games and activities, focusing on "good to eat but not expensive" and cost-effectiveness. The three-day "must eat list market" event ultimately attracted more than 300000 citizens and tourists, and the sales and passenger flow of the event's location in Meiluo City also increased.
Huang Danni, Deputy Director of the Marketing Management Department of Shanghai Xujiahui Mall Co., Ltd., has been promoting the integrated marketing of business, tourism, and culture in the Xujiahui commercial district for a long time. In her work, she has been thinking about a question: why do people come to Xujiahui? Is it to see the 4A level Xujiahuiyuan Scenic Area, and to appreciate the "urban antiques" such as Xujiahui Observatory, Library, and Catholic Church? Or come check in at new landmarks such as Xujiahui Academy and Aerial Corridor? Especially, the construction goals of Xujiahui commercial district have been clearly defined, focusing on experience economy, headquarters economy, brand economy, and first store economy. "People need more reasons to travel to Xujiahui," said Huang Danni.

Supply of carriers exceeds demand, seeking novelty and change is the king's way

The change in consumer concepts has also prompted operators of physical commerce to constantly think and adjust their positioning. "After each marketing campaign, we conduct data analysis. In recent years, the biggest realization is that when the shopping attributes of commercial districts are no longer the only reason to attract consumer attention, we should endow consumer behavior with cultural and social attributes, trigger emotional resonance among consumers, and meet people's needs for diversified consumption." Huang Danni said.

Yao Jiayin, Deputy General Manager of Shanghai Hengfu Investment and Development Co., Ltd., is responsible for the construction and operation of cultural venues in the Hengfu Scenic Area, the commercial operation of revitalized historical buildings in the scenic area, and the creation and promotion of the "Charming Hengfu" cultural brand. After participating in the operation of multiple carriers and commercial blocks in the Hengfu style area, including Hengshan Fang, Jianye Li, Hengfu Art Center, Dongping Road... Yao Jiayin and her colleagues are pondering a question: do people just take a photo when they go to the Wukang Building? Do you want to turn the "traffic" of Wukang Building into "retention"? What else is there to enjoy in the surrounding area?
