Guizhou prepared promotion pamphlets for the show and bags with QR codes that people could scan for more information, which one Zhejiang girl commented on by saying that she scanned the codes to browse the online store, and "It's easy to buy the Guizhou food that I miss so much. I've been to Guizhou's Huangguoshu waterfall and the Xijiang Miao village, which impressed me with its beauty, culture, and ethnic customs."
Zhou Kai, the GM of the Guizhou E-commerce Company, sees the World Internet Conference as a good place for him to open his mind more and to learn new ideas about the Internet, and, "This is a good opportunity to exchange ideas with global Internet companies, and at the same time, a chance to show Guizhou products."
