宣城校区英语系暑期“三下乡”社会实践团队：红旅产业助力乡村振兴

On July 12th, the summer "Going to the Countryside" social practice team of the English Department of Xuan Cheng Campus went to Guangde City's Rural Revitalization Bureau and Cultural Tourism Bureau to conduct interviews with relevant leaders in order to better understand the integration of the local red tourism industry with rural revitalization.\n\nAfter an hour-long bus ride, the team arrived at the Rural Revitalization Bureau, where they were received by Huang Wenwu, a member of the Xuan Cheng Political Consultative Conference and Deputy Director of the Xuan Cheng Agriculture and Rural Bureau. Huang stated that in the current process of developing rural revitalization in Guangde, the most fundamental issue is to ensure the consolidation and expansion of the achievements in poverty alleviation. We also learned that the Rural Revitalization Bureau has achieved good performance and results, with high satisfaction from the masses and an increase in happiness and sense of achievement. In order to better consolidate and expand the achievements in poverty alleviation and effectively connect them with rural revitalization, Guangde City has customized assistance plans for each household based on their actual situation and actively built platforms to partner with caring enterprises. After preliminary visits and investigations, Guangde City has released a "Helping Hand" plan for 52 monitoring households throughout the city.\n\nNext, we went to the Cultural Tourism Bureau and conducted in-depth interviews with Director Xiao and Director Wang. We learned that Guangde City has seized the opportunity of the integration of transportation and tourism, vigorously implemented the construction of the "Bamboo Village Gallery" tourism scenic road, and focused on promoting rural revitalization, creating a demonstration zone for rural revitalization that integrates convenient transportation, tourism, modern agriculture, and cultural displays. "The tourist road is not only a convenient road but also an industrial road." Through the implementation of the "Bamboo Village Gallery" project, the roads have become smoother, the scenery has become more beautiful, and the villages have become more attractive. As a result, industries have flourished like mushrooms after rain.\n\nThe local departments were very willing to communicate with us and were happy to provide us with relevant key data and materials. Through interviews as the main form of discussion, the directors patiently answered our questions. Through today's interviews, we have gained a better understanding of the policies, measures, advantages, and disadvantages of the integration of the local red tourism industry with rural revitalization.\n\nIn the afternoon, we went to the villages, distributed questionnaires, and surveyed the awareness and attitudes of the villagers towards the integration of the red tourism industry and rural revitalization. The survey results reflected that the general public trusts the government and is willing to follow the country, showing a positive attitude towards the red tourism industry. Lastly, we interviewed a representative beneficiary of the development of the red tourism industry, Mr. Liu, the owner of a village inn. He expressed that the roads have become wider, the environment has improved, and there are more tourists, which has promoted the development of farmhouse restaurants and village inns, stimulating economic growth.\n\nDuring the research and interviews, the three groups integrated well in various aspects. The interview group prepared well in advance, making the content of the interviews more in-depth and logical. The photography group worked hard to capture high-quality images, which effectively supplemented the information conveyed by the news articles. The professional students from the three groups communicated and integrated during the research process, and their hearts became closer as they wanted to understand this land more. A single word or a look could lead to tacit cooperation, effectively improving the quality of the work.\n\nIn this summer social practice, the English Department team went to Sihexiang Village in Guangde to promote rural revitalization through the red tourism industry. In three days, they deeply understood the outstanding red family traditions and village culture of Sihexiang, applied their theoretical knowledge to practice, and successfully concluded the "Going to the Countryside" activity. The manuscript has been revised and optimized.
