The upcoming event is to be held at the E-sports Hall of Fanmate Creative Area,

which is located at the eastern outskirt of the city. A total of 51 favorable

policies, investment opportunities worth of 284.8 billion yuan (42.3 billion

U.S. dollars), 100 new products and 100 scenes related to culture, sports, and

travel industries will be unveiled at the event.

The policies and opportunities echo Chengdu's efforts to build itself an

internationally well-known city of culture & creativity, tourism, sport events,

gastronomy, music, and exhibitions. All these six sectors saw double-digit

year-over-year growth in 2019. Data shows that Chengdu is the second most

popular travel destination during the recent National Day holidays.

At the event, Chengdu-based CoCo Cartoon, the producer of China's

highest-grossing animation movie Ne Zha, will unveil an animation-reality-mixed

show co-produced with Chengdu Yongling Museum. The show will feature musicians

and dancers from over a thousand years ago and put them in six representative

Chengdu scenes.

Another highlight of the event is the attendance of popular Chengdu e-sports

club All Gamers, which has earned reputation for outstanding performance in

Honor of Kings and PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds pro leagues, including one

championship and three silver medals in the King Pro League. The phenomenal

mobile game Honor of Kings was developed by Chengdu-based TiMi Studios.

Besides, a group of distinguished guests will gather at the event to offer

their insights on fostering a city of culture. The list include Paul Owens,

Director of the World Cities Culture Forum, Jean-Luc Monterosso, member of

France's Académie des Beaux-Arts and curator of Chengdu Contemporary Image

Museum, and Patrick Nijs, former ambassador of Belgium to China and co-founder

of EU-China Joint Innovation Centre.

The event is part of a year-long campaign to boost the new economy sector in

Chengdu, which will publish 1,000 new products and 1,000 new scenes in the

sector by the end of 2020. The October event is organized by a number of

municipal authorities of Chengdu and the government of the Longquanyi District.
