What is the proportion of German exhibition economy in German GDP?

The proportion of an industry's GDP to the GDP of a country or region is an important indicator to measure the position of this industry in the national economy. According to the economic census data released by the National Bureau of Statistics in 2004, the tertiary industry, namely service industry, accounts for 40.7% of GDP. The service industry includes many industries. We can look at the travel data. According to the data provided by the National Tourism Administration, tourism accounted for 3% of the national GDP in 2003. That is to say, in China's service industry, tourism accounts for nearly 10% and plays an important role. Let's take another example of Macao: in 2007, the service industry accounted for 88.3% of Macao's GDP, of which gambling accounted for 37.2%, hotel industry accounted for 3.4%, catering industry accounted for 3. 1%, and commercial service industry accounted for 6.5%. It can be seen that the service industry is the cornerstone of Macao's economy, and the gaming industry is the pillar of Macao's service industry.

Can the exhibition industry account for 1-2% of GDP?

Look at Germany first. Because Germany is an internationally recognized exhibition country.

Germany's GDP in 2009 was 3.3 trillion dollars (2.4 trillion euros). If the exhibition industry accounts for 1-2%, it should be 330-660 billion dollars. According to the data released by the German Exhibition Industry Association, the annual business income of the German exhibition industry has remained at around 2.5 billion euros since 2005, accounting for only 0. 1% of the German GDP. However, operating income is not the added value of convention and exhibition industry. If the added value is calculated, it must be less than 0. 1%.

Look at China.

In 2009, China's GDP was 33.5 trillion RMB (4.9 1 trillion USD), and 1-2% was 335-670 billion RMB. According to the statistical data published by relevant domestic institutions in the past five years, the operating income (direct income) of the exhibition industry has never reached 50 billion yuan, not to mention that GDP only calculates the added value such as rent, interest, depreciation, profit, employee wages and taxes. !

From the above rough analysis, it can be seen that no matter whether the exhibition industry is developed or not, it is impossible for the exhibition industry to account for 1-2% of a country's GDP.

But in cities like Hanover, Las Vegas, China and Macau, the exhibition industry may account for 65,438+0-2% of the city's GDP. But the condition is that the economy of such cities mainly depends on the service industry, that is to say, the agriculture and manufacturing industry of such cities are underdeveloped and account for a low proportion of the city's GDP.

The GDP of China's three major convention and exhibition cities "Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou" has exceeded one trillion RMB, and the annual business income of convention and exhibition industry in these three cities is far from 654.38+000 billion RMB, not to mention 6543.8+0-2% of GDP. "Beishangguang" is still the case, not to mention other second-and third-tier exhibition cities. From the perspective of developing service industry, there are no cities like Hanover, Las Vegas and Macau in Chinese mainland.

According to my estimation, excluding double counting, the added value of convention and exhibition industry only accounts for 40% of operating income at most. If the operating income of Shanghai convention and exhibition industry is 654.38+00 billion yuan, its added value included in GDP is at most 4 billion yuan. The problem is that there is no statistical data to show the annual income of Shanghai convention and exhibition industry, so it is impossible to study the added value of Shanghai convention and exhibition industry in depth.

Government officials and scholars should not blindly advocate such specious concepts as "the pulling coefficient of convention and exhibition economy is 1: 9" and "the proportion of convention and exhibition industry in GDP is 1-2%".
