During the 15th Cross-Strait (Xiamen) Cultural Industries Fair held from Oct 31 to Nov 3, the Xiamen Free Trade Zone national cultural export base exhibition area at Hall C3 of the Xiamen International Conference and Exhibition Center presented a rich and colorful cultural feast.
Vintage film reels and costumes from Taiwan showcasing the history of Taiwan cinema and captivating paintings from the Art Amoy and Autumn Mosaic Art Centre attracted many visitors, while in Xiamen International Book Company Limited (XIBC)'s live streaming room, hosts engaged with viewers.
The national cultural trade platform, based on the first batch in China and the only national cultural export base in Fujian, continues to deepen cultural exchange and cooperation with Taiwan, improve the cultural bonded supervision system, open up new channels for foreign cultural trade, and support the export of high-quality cultural content.
Xiamen Dafeng Wenyun Cultural Development Co Ltd officially started operating in September. It is the first listed company in China's performing arts equipment industry and chose to establish its regional headquarters in the Xiamen FTZ due to the prestigious reputation of the national cultural export base.
As an important growth pole for cultural imports and exports in Xiamen, the national cultural export base achieved remarkable results in the import and export of cultural products and services in the first three quarters of this year, with a total value of 21.03 billion yuan ($2.96 billion).
