According to the law of diminishing marginal utility, the marginal utility when consumers purchase a certain product shows a diminishing trend. As a special product, cultural tourism products, whether is the marginal utility produced during consumption also affected by the law of diminishing marginal utility. This paper takes "Impression Liu Sanjie" as the research object and uses a linear regression equation model to study the marginal utility of tourists "Impression Liu Sanjie" cultural tourism products. The results show that the marginal utility produced by tourists buying the cultural tourism products of "Impression Liu Sanjie" shows an obvious decreasing trend. The main reason is that the cultural tourism products of "Impression Liu Sanjie" lack innovation and strong brand characteristics, the overall scale is small, the positioning is not accurate, etc., affected by the competition of homogenized products in the surrounding area, and the return rate of tourists is low. Moreover, there is a gap between existing products and the development trend of high-end tourism, which cannot meet the needs of tourists for in- depth experience and research tourism. Therefore, "Impression Liu Sanjie" needs to intensify innovation, fundamentally solve the problem of diminishing marginal utility, further stabilize the source of tourists and meet the needs of tourists for repeated consumption quality, and realize sustainable tourism development. based on the law of diminishing marginal utility [7-9], but 1 Introduction there are relatively few studies on the development of cultural tourism products based on the law of diminishing Since the merger of the Ministry of Culture and the marginal utility. The reason for the diminishing marginal Ministry of Tourism into the Ministry of Culture and utility in the operation of tourism products is not Tourism in 2018, the integration of culture and tourism completely removed. Therefore, using the law of and the development of cultural tourism have once again diminishing marginal utility to analyze the development entered people's vision, becoming a new tourism trend and of cultural tourism products is conducive to solving the the focus of scholars. Through the literature search, the problems in the development of cultural tourism, and is research on cultural tourism integration and cultural conducive to guiding the better integration of culture and tourism mainly focuses on the traceability and tourism. development of local tourism culture [1], the influence of [2] Impression Liu Sanjie is Zhang Yimou’s fist traditional Chinese culture on tourism management , the "Landscape live performance" in China.

In particular, the marginal increases is diminishing, in other words, the marginal [6] utility of tourists buying "Impression Liu Sanjie" cultural utility is diminishing. The law of diminishing marginal tourism products has shown a clear decreasing trend, utility is widely used in many research fields.

    Post-Cold War Experimental Theatre of China: Staging Globalisation and Its Resistance Zheyu Wei A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The School of Creative Arts The University of Dublin, Trinity College 2017 Declaration I declare that this thesis has not been submitted as an exercise for a degree at this or any other university and it is my own work. I agree to deposit this thesis in the University’s open access institutional repository or allow the library to do so on my behalf, subject to Irish Copyright Legislation and Trinity College Library Conditions of use and acknowledgement. ___________________ Zheyu Wei ii Summary This thesis is a study of Chinese experimental theatre from the year 1990 to the year 2014, to examine the involvement of Chinese theatre in the process of globalisation – the increasingly intensified relationship between places that are far away from one another but that are connected by the movement of flows on a global scale and the consciousness of the world as a whole. The central argument of this thesis is that Chinese post-Cold War experimental theatre has been greatly influenced by the trend of globalisation. This dissertation discusses the work of a number of representative figures in the “Little Theatre Movement” in mainland China since the 1980s, e.g. Lin Zhaohua, Meng Jinghui, Zhang Xian, etc., whose theatrical experiments have had a strong impact on the development of contemporary Chinese theatre, and inspired a younger generation of theatre practitioners. Through both close reading of literary and visual texts, and the inspection of secondary texts such as interviews and commentaries, an overview of performances mirroring the age-old Chinese culture’s struggle under the unprecedented modernising and globalising pressure in the post-Cold War period will be provided.

  • Chinese Communism and the Rise of a Classification
    7 Ugly Intellectuals Everywhere During the early 1960s, the musical drama Third Sister Liu (Liu Sanjie) took China’s cultural scene by storm. The musical was created in Guangxi Province, far removed from the PRC capital at Beijing. It drew on the folklore of Third Sister Liu, whose legend has permeated South China since the Tang dynasty (618–907). The performance features a peasant heroine of Zhuang minority origin using her ingenuity in singing and improvising mountain folksongs (shan’ge) to help poor villagers fight against predatory landlords and their hangers-on. The musical was staged in Beijing between July and September 1960, including four times inside the official compound of Zhongnanhai, where Chairman Mao and other CCP leaders worked and lived. After receiving praise from the leaders, the troupe toured no fewer than thirteen provinces and regions and some twenty cities, many of which staged their own productions of the play.1 By January 1961, radio and television stations nationwide were playing excerpts of the musical to ring in the Western and the Chinese New Year; gramophone recordings of the musical were avail- able for sale and distribution. Later that year, Changchun Film Studio (Changchun dianying zhipian chang), one of the biggest in China, released Third Sister Liu as a musical feature film set along the banks of the Li River in spectacular Guilin in Guangxi. With an impressive score, witty lines, memorable characters, and supe- rior cinematography, the movie was an instant hit. Productions of colored pictures of the actresses and actors as well as sheet music and artwork related to the movie followed, just in time for another New Year celebration.

    AN INTEGRATED FRAMEWORK OF TOURISM DEVELOPMENT AND RESIDENTS' QUALITY OF LIFE IN TOURISM DESTINATIONS IN TRANSITION IN CHINA: A CASE STUDY OF YANGSHUO, GUANGXI PROVINCE Li He (B.A. Business Administration; M.Sc. Tourism Management) Institute for Sustainable Industry and Liveable Cities Victoria University Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2019 Preface The first time I went to Yangshuo was with my family back in 2007. The beautiful views, the Liu Sanjie music show, and extremely busy West Street all left a strong impression on me. I was delighted that I had the opportunity to return to this place and to get to know its people in more depth during my PhD study. It is an absolutely different feeling to have a hands-on experience of something. When you read about the impacts of tourism on people’s quality of life in a textbook or journal article, it’s a more holistic view. But when you have actually been in the place and spoken to people, seen the smiles on their faces, heard their voices, shared their emotions and noticed the changes, it is very different. I realised, not simply understood, how tourism has changed people’s lives, made them happy, or made them worried. Talking to the residents and getting to know each of them made them no longer a number in the statistical analysis - the quantity matters, and each individual also matters. One thing I am sure about is that without tourism, their lives would be very different. This study was conducted to determine residents’ perceived quality of life; to understand their opinions, emotions and perceptions.

  • Red Only Western Guangxi and a Small Part of Yunnan
    CHAPTER ONE Frontier Youth 1894–1914 ei Baqun’s birthplace, Donglan County of Guangxi Province, was a Wfrontier region in more than one sense. It was not far from China’s southern border with Vietnam. In Wei Baqun’s time, travelers from Donglan would often choose to pass through Vietnam in order to reach Hong Kong and Guangzhou. Wei Baqun himself took that route at least twice. The border between Guangxi and Vietnam could be easily crossed partly because neither the French colonial government in Vietnam nor the local Guangxi militarists took the area seriously. The French concentrated their attention on Yunnan rather than Guangxi, whereas the leaders of Guangxi thought that the regions to the east and north were much more important than the southern borders.1 Donglan was also very close to the border dividing Guangxi from three other Chinese provinces: Yunnan, Guizhou, and Hunan, making it a frontier county of a frontier province (Map 1.1). In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Donglan fit well the stereotypes of a typical frontier region in China. First of all, it was a multiethnic area. The dominant ethnic group, of which Wei Baqun was a member, was the Turen (which means natives) or Zhuang, whose ancestors, known as Yue, Bai- yue, Luoyue, Xi’ou, Wuhu, Liliao, and Lang in different periods and different places, used to occupy a large part of southern China. By the early twentieth century, however, the Zhuang heartland had shrunk so much that it covered only western Guangxi and a small part of Yunnan.
