Teresa Teng’s hometown spent 800 million yuan to develop tourism using her signature. What do you think?

Teresa Teng’s hometown spent 800 million yuan to develop tourism using her signature. The reason is very simple! Because Teresa Teng has many fans, she wants to take advantage of the celebrity effect. Teresa Teng’s ancestral home is Dengtai Village, Daming County Town, Handan City, Hebei Province. However, she has never returned to her hometown of Dengtai Village, and she never thought that 21 years after her death, her hometown would bear her name. Develop tourism.

Dengtai Village is located 3 kilometers northeast of the 215 Provincial Highway in Daming County along the Zhanghe South Embankment. This village is not big, with only more than 120 households and less than 600 people, including Deng, Zhang, Tian, ??Wang and other surnames. The originally ordinary village took advantage of the opportunity of "beautiful rural construction" to create a tourist attraction, Lijun Town, 21 years after Teresa Teng's death (2016). The purpose of this move is obvious, which is to use Teresa Teng's fame to develop the tourism economy. After all, Teresa Teng has millions of fans at home and abroad. (PS: Even in the 1980s when Teresa Teng was most popular, the villagers did not know who Teresa Teng was)

It is reported that the local area is expected to invest 800 million yuan to build Dengtai Village. Now, from software and hardware Judging from the construction, the village's tourism development project should still be in the early stages. Although there are no particularly stunning attractions, the renovated village houses are mainly gray and white, neatly planned and have an antique charm. Flowers, plants and trees are planted in front and behind every house, making the whole village more vibrant and lively. Tasteful. The current main attractions of Lijun Town include: Lijun Cultural Plaza, Teresa Teng’s ancestral home, Sun Moon Lake, On the Water, Performing Arts Plaza, Deng’s Ancestral Tomb, Taichung Street Lianxin Bridge, etc.

Many walls in Lijun Town are pasted with words and patterns related to music and Teresa Teng. It seems that elements of Teresa Teng are everywhere. Walking through such quiet and unique streets and alleys, the breeze blows on your face, and Teresa Teng's leisurely "Stories in a Small Town" and "When Will You Come Again" are heard in your ears, which is refreshing and refreshing. The highlight of the village's attractions is Teresa Teng's ancestral house. Although the old house has been packaged, it has retained some of its original features, such as some adobe and red brick walls, old brick floors, and some old furniture, etc., which gives it a sense of age. .

The inner courtyard of Teresa Teng’s ancestral home focuses on displaying the Deng family tree, as well as Teresa Teng’s photos, posters, life stories, etc. Generally speaking, Teresa Teng's town is quite good. Not only is there Teresa Teng's elements everywhere, but it also combines local customs and specialties. It has a promising future. However, the only fly in the ointment is a black statue of Teresa Teng in the village, which is often criticized by tourists.

Looking closer, the statue of Teresa Teng is wearing a cheongsam and singing with a microphone. It's just that this statue of Teresa Teng has a strong figure and a chubby face. It doesn't look like Teresa Teng herself at all. Netizens complained: The statue is too eye-catching, don’t tell me this is Teresa Teng, this is obviously Jia Ling!

Dengtai Village is not the only village that uses celebrities to develop tourism. Yuecunji Village in Nanle County, Puyang City, Henan Province is also in a similar situation. Yuecunji Village was originally an ordinary village. Later, because villager Yue Yunpeng became famous, the local people turned Yuecunji Village into a tourist attraction, and there were quite a few tourists. If Dengtai Village can be developed properly, its development prospects will surely surpass that of Yuecun Village. After all, Teresa Teng’s achievements and fame lie there.

But the premise is that a statue of Teresa Teng must be built!
