On May 13, 2025, an exchange event that brought together business elites from Guangdong and Hunan was launched in Foshan. Tan Bin, Chairman of the European, Asian and African Chinese Union and Chairman of the Board of Directors, led a core team of Juwei Group to visit. Yaofei Executive Chairman Fan Yun, Executive President Chen Qiang, Trainee Chairman Luo Junwen and others had an in-depth dialogue with representatives of the Hunan Xiangtan Chamber of Commerce in Foshan. The Chamber of Commerce's participants included Executive Presidents Wei Renxuan and Li Tiegang, Secretary-General Xu Wanli, Member Representative He Yan, Full-time Secretary Chen Yanan, and Liao Yinhua, General Manager of Hampton by Hilton Foshan West Station. Both sides jointly celebrated the cross-industry cooperation event.
The event was officially launched at 10 a.m. on the same day. After nearly three hours of pragmatic exchanges, from hometown exchanges to industrial and financial docking, from pain point analysis to strategic planning, the entire process closely followed the pulse of the Greater Bay Area's development and marked important time nodes for the coordinated development of Hunan enterprises.
The symposium was held at the Hunan Xiangtan Chamber of Commerce in Foshan, which is not only the "hometown" of entrepreneurs in Guangdong and Xiangtan, but also a hub platform for connecting government and enterprise resources and promoting industrial collaboration. The familiar local accent and the open atmosphere of the Bay Area blended here, witnessing the deep collision of regional culture and modern business.
As a benchmark in Foshan's film and television industry, Juwei Group took the opportunity of "Visiting Brother Chambers of Commerce" to reach three major cooperation consensuses with Xiangtan Chamber of Commerce: establishing a regular mutual visit mechanism to promote brand co-construction, building online and offline resource platforms to promote industrial and financial docking, and jointly conducting industry research to help upgrade the industrial chain. The two sides also discussed customized publicity plans and the construction path of the bank-enterprise docking platform around the pain points of enterprise promotion and financing difficulties, and presented a "development package" to member companies.
The event stems from two major demands: internally, Hunan merchants in Guangdong face common problems such as insufficient brand exposure and limited capital docking channels, and they are in urgent need of cross-industry resource empowerment; externally, the construction of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area has entered a deepening stage, and collaborative innovation in the industrial chain has become the key to breaking through for enterprises. Juwei Group uses its media advantages as a fulcrum, and Xiangtan Chamber of Commerce relies on its hometown network. The two sides work together to transform the tradition of "Hunan merchants holding together" into modern business competitiveness and jointly serve the high-quality development of the Bay Area.
The exchange was carried out in the mode of "hometown friendship + professional dialogue": President Wei Renxuan first used the Hunan spirit as an introduction, emphasizing the role of the Chamber of Commerce in "gathering people's hearts and building a platform"; Chairman Tan Bin combined the experience of Juwei Group in serving enterprises and proposed a specific path for "film and television to empower industry" - from official website optimization to encyclopedia marketing, from financing roadshow planning to brand documentary production, opening a new window for digital marketing for traditional enterprises. When member representative Liao Yinhua shared her practical experience in the hotel industry, the two sides collided on the spot to spark cross-border cooperation in business travel services, event planning, etc. Among the most concerned financing issues, the two sides clearly stated that they will jointly prepare a special matchmaking meeting with financial institutions to target the "urgent needs" of small and medium-sized enterprises.
This warm and in-depth symposium is not only an emotional connection between fellow townsmen, but also a business practice that accurately matches market demand. When the "daring to be the first" spirit of Hunan merchants meets the "open and innovative" gene of the Bay Area, a new development picture of resource sharing and complementary advantages is slowly unfolding. With the establishment of a regular exchange visit mechanism, the two sides will turn consensus into action, so that the results of strategic cooperation will benefit more Hunan merchants in Guangdong as soon as possible, and inject "Hunan brand" vitality into the industrial upgrading of the Greater Bay Area.
