Gulangyu B&B has no guests for a 20% discount. What is the reason behind this?

Because of the COVID-19 epidemic, many industries in China were affected by the COVID-19 epidemic. During this period, profits were greatly reduced, and even many shops closed down. During the COVID-19 epidemic, tourism was also one of the industries most affected. Xiamen is dominated by tourism, and there are many tourist attractions here. Gulangyu Island is one of the world-famous tourist attractions, and many people usually visit it. However, this time, the Wild B&B has no customers with a 20% discount. The reason behind this is nothing more than the influence of the COVID-19 epidemic.

Epidemic situation in Xiamen

On July 30, Xiamen found that an international cargo crew member Zhang and his three family members tested positive for nucleic acid, and then two communities were closed. Community residents asked for home isolation 14 days, and the closure was not lifted until mid-August. However, it was not long before it was unsealed. Due to the epidemic situation in Putian, there are also confirmed cases in Xiamen, and the number of confirmed cases is more than that in Putian. Many areas are classified as high-risk areas and closed control is implemented.

Activities and operations in public places in Xiamen were suspended.

In order to control the epidemic in the shortest possible time and prevent the spread of the epidemic, Xiamen has introduced relevant prevention and control measures, requiring all personnel not to leave Xiamen, and public places such as cinemas, KTV, libraries and museums have been suspended, including tourism.

The epidemic caused a 20% discount on Gulangyu B&B, and there were no customers.

Affected by these two epidemics, Xiamen's tourism industry has been in a bleak state during this period, and its income has decreased by more than half compared with previous years. There are also a lot fewer tourists, especially local homestays. At this time, the 1000 yuan homestay was robbed and empty. Now, due to the epidemic, no tourists have come, and there are no guests staying at a 20% discount. The house booked before was cancelled by the client because of the epidemic. The owners of several homestays in Gulangyu said that there have been many large-scale check-outs.
