The TV show or movie story and some symbolic articles in the movie or show have direct influence on tourists. To these tourists, their main goal is to see what they have seen or heard in the movie or TV show in real life.

The survey shows:74% tourists come to the Longquan Mountain Village to "see the place where Liu Laogen live in the TV show in person", indicating this is the tourists' main motive. The analysis of the relations between sex and tourism motive showed that the male "escape" motive is more obvious than the female. Through the research and analysis, we may draw the conclusion that movie and TV show is main factor which attracts tourists to come to the Longquan Mountain Village. Some symbolic articles in the movie or TV show also have obvious function in attracting tourists.
