Most of the audio systems and stadium lighting fixtures at ongoing FIFA World Cup venues in the United States, Canada and Mexico are made in Guangdong, demonstrating the province's manufacturing strength and high-end capabilities in the field, a senior local business executive has said.
"And much of the lighting, audio equipment and stage special effects for large-scale events worldwide is now manufactured by Guangdong's cultural-tourism equipment industrial companies," Wang Ruixiang, chairman of Guangzhou Ruifeng Audio Technology Incorporation, said.
"In the performance equipment industry, lighting products manufactured in Guangdong account for more than 80 percent of the global market share," he said.
"From the FIFA World Cup and the Olympic Games to the Asian Games and National Games, Guangdong-based companies are behind the sound, lighting and stage design for the world's top large-scale events," Wang told visiting journalists who are now on a media tour in Guangdong province, a major economic and innovation hub.
Ruifeng is a major full-chain cultural industrial enterprise that specializes in large-scale entertainment events, innovative cultural tourism management, and sports event operations.
