The Global Cultural Tourism RWA Development Summit, jointly organized by the Hong Kong Blockchain Technology Application Association, Hong Kong Dayou Technology Co., Ltd., and Ningbo Century Prosperity Tourism Development Co., Ltd., concluded on August 17 in Hong Kong. The summit's theme was 'Chain Driving the World: Creating the Future with Ningbo - Cultural Tourism RWA Empowering New Ecosystem,' gathering policy pioneers, academic authorities, and industry artisans to jointly decode how the cultural tourism industry can leverage RWA to break through the asset liquidity dilemma, achieving global circulation through the innovative model of 'data cross-border + assets on-chain' with Chinese characteristics.
Cultural blessings go global, blockchain reshapes the cultural tourism scene.
Huang Shuicai, Chairman of Ningbo Century Prosperity Tourism Development Co., Ltd., announced at the summit that Shangjin Caishen Valley will rely on RWA technology to promote the globalization strategy of Caishen culture IP. The first batch of the project will launch limited NFTs designed with cultural elements such as Caishen wine and the wealth pot, serving as an 'ecological key' to connect global users; at the same time, part of the personal share income of the chairman and cultural collectibles will be legally tokenized to issue cross-border tradable digital rights certificates, attracting fragmented international capital injection. To achieve a symbiotic experience of virtual and real, Caishen Valley plans to develop metaverse virtual land tokens, where holders can unlock offline scenic privileges and other integrated rights. Huang Shuicai emphasized that this strategy is based on the Hong Kong compliance channel, strictly adhering to the cross-border regulatory framework, through the model of 'cultural assets on-chain - global capital linkage - virtual and real experience closed loop', not only solving the liquidity dilemma of traditional cultural tourism assets but also allowing the Eastern values carried by Caishen culture to set sail overseas with digital finance.
The signing of the Caishen Universe ecosystem marks the groundbreaking work of China's cultural tourism RWA globalization.
The Hong Kong Blockchain Technology Application Association, Ningbo Century Prosperity Tourism Development Co., Ltd., and Hong Kong Dayou Technology Co., Ltd. have constructed a 'technology-capital-finance' iron triangle to jointly promote global cultural tourism RWA strategic cooperation. Guests jointly initiated the golden handprint, announcing the global debut of the 'aggregated Caishen NFT' ecosystem. Relying on the Anome Protocol technology framework, the project plans to be listed on Binance by 2026 and build a compliance stablecoin system worth tens of billions, creating a new paradigm of Eastern wealth culture through the 'NFT + GameFi + RWA' integration model.
Global debut of the three-level penetration model of cultural tourism RWA.
Zheng Dingxiang, Chairman of the Hong Kong Blockchain Technology Application Association, released the 'Three-Level Penetration Model of Cultural Tourism RWA,' building a new paradigm for cross-border circulation relying on Hong Kong's super hub advantages. This model converts physical assets such as scenic area income into on-chain tokens through equity penetration; achieves real-time on-chain operation information through data penetration, establishing a dual-track mechanism of domestic ownership locking and offshore token circulation through Hong Kong's VASP license; and connects decentralized trading pools through circulation penetration to realize global liquidity release. Chairman Zheng emphasized that RWA needs to transcend the positioning of financing tools and return to the essence of productivity enhancement, promoting the compliant overseas flow of cultural tourism assets through on-chain trust mechanisms, constructing a sustainable channel for global capital to share cultural dividends. This model provides a methodological operational manual for cultural tourism IPs represented by Ningbo Shangjin Caishen Valley, promoting cultural tourism RWA from concept validation to large-scale landing.
Policy, technology, and capital triple empowerment activate a new ecosystem for cultural tourism assets.
National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference member Stephen Law appeared at the summit, linking Hong Kong's mature financial regulatory system, open capital environment, and efficient data cross-border flow mechanism from the perspective of 'builder of Hong Kong's international financial hub,' providing a sustainable path for mainland cultural tourism assets to leap into the global ocean through Hong Kong. Renowned economist Yao Jingyuan systematically outlined the development picture of China's cultural tourism RWA in his keynote speech on 'Digital Asset Construction and Cultural Tourism Innovation,' emphasizing that cultural tourism RWA needs to deeply integrate into the national digital economy strategy. The regulatory framework under Hong Kong's 'one country, two systems' provides a compliance foundation for cross-border asset circulation, and policy dividends will accelerate the release of liquidity for cultural tourism assets worth hundreds of billions. Hong Ziqing analyzed the investment window for cultural tourism RWA, pointing out that cultural tourism assets, which have both cultural scarcity and stable cash flow, are becoming the preferred choice for anti-inflation allocation, and early investors are expected to capture significant annual yield premiums.
Qu Qiang proposed an innovative solution to solve the time-space dependency problem of cultural tourism assets. By integrating geographical location verification and privacy protection mechanisms through time-space blockchain technology, it provides efficient chain mapping capabilities for heritage digitization. Tan Shui Lian analyzed the implementation path of RWA for listed companies, using examples such as the tokenization of charging pile and photovoltaic power station income rights to validate the positive cycle of 'assets on-chain - liquidity release - market value growth.' The TBC public chain showcased underlying facilities specifically designed for RWA, its high throughput and low-friction architecture compatible with Bitcoin's security model and smart contract functionality, providing foundational support for fragmented trading of cultural tourism assets and second-level settlement. Elites from various sectors conducted a comprehensive analysis from policy opportunities, capital allocation, technical challenges to implementation paths, anchoring key markers for cultural tourism assets to achieve compliant globalization through RWA.
Roundtable consensus: Hong Kong empowers the practical path of mainland cultural tourism going overseas.
The conference actively responded to the central government's directive spirit of 'telling good Chinese stories and promoting cultural going global.' The roundtable forum focused on the 'practical methodology for mainland cultural tourism IP to leverage Hong Kong towards the global stage.' Experts unanimously agreed that Hong Kong, with its unique regulatory framework and financial hub status, provides a compliant main channel for mainland cultural tourism assets to go overseas. By connecting international rules with China's unique data cross-border mechanisms, systematically solving the problems of asset rights confirmation, liquidity, and cross-border trust, promoting cultural assets to participate in global capital allocation in standardized digital rights form, creating a new paradigm for cross-border circulation of cultural assets.
Conclusion
As the first cultural tourism project in mainland China to achieve global tokenization relying on Hong Kong's hub and standardized guidelines, the launch of the 'Caishen Universe ecosystem' signifies the beginning of standardized practice for cultural tourism RWA, paving the way for the global circulation of super cultural IPs like the Forbidden City and Dunhuang. When millennium cultural assets meet RWA, a revolution regarding the reassessment of cultural value and reconstruction of capital flow has already set sail.
