Visitors' Views of China West Film Studio's Tourist Business Based on their Movie-social Lifestyle

Film Theme Parks, which combine activities of the film industry with those of the tourism industry, appear to be a thriving new form of tourism in China. Benefiting from the popularity of Chinese movies as well as the growth of tourist activities, the film theme park business is booming, generating significant revenue for China’s tourism sector. As it keeps growing, a study on its success and development seem appropriate and may prove helpful to film theme park managers. It may also contribute to the sustainability of this activity as a viable part of tourism in China. With an aim to understand the business factors of film theme parks, this research, a case study, focuses on one specific film them park, the China West Film Studio in the Ningxia Province, to investigate the relationships between tourists’ movie-social lifestyle with regard to business factors. This study adopts a visitors’ point of view and uses the factor analysis to categorize the visitors’ movie-social lifestyle characteristics. The analysis of the data, obtained through questionnaires, reveal that visitors can be grouped in six clusters, each one showing different aspects of their views on the various business factors offered by China West Film Studio. While the study indicates that studio’s business factors on service and movie themes meet with relative success, it also suggests that the studio should pay more attention on the improvement of its facilities, publicity, activities, and prices

Blue Phosphorene Oxide: Strain-tunable Quantum Phase Transitions and Novel 2D Emergent Fermions

Tunable quantum phase transitions and novel emergent fermions in solid state materials are fascinating subjects of research. Here, we propose a new stable two-dimensional (2D) material, the blue phosphorene oxide (BPO), which exhibits both. Based on first-principles calculations, we show that its equilibrium state is a narrow-bandgap semiconductor with three bands at low energy. Remarkably, a moderate strain can drive a semiconductor-to-semimetal quantum phase transition in BPO. At the critical transition point, the three bands cross at a single point at Fermi level, around which the quasiparticles are a novel type of 2D pseudospin-1 fermions. Going beyond the transition, the system becomes a symmetry-protected semimetal, for which the conduction and valence bands touch quadratically at a single Fermi point that is protected by symmetry, and the low-energy quasiparticles become another novel type of 2D double Weyl fermions. We construct effective models characterizing the phase transition and these novel emergent fermions, and we point out several exotic effects, including super Klein tunneling, supercollimation, and universal optical absorbance. Our result reveals BPO as an intriguing platform for the exploration of fundamental properties of quantum phase transitions and novel emergent fermions, and also suggests its great potential in nanoscale device applications.Comment: 23 pages, 5 figure

(E)-1-(3-Methoxy­phen­yl)ethanone 4-nitro­phenyl­hydrazone

Crystals of the title compound, C15H15N3O3, were obtained from a condensation reaction of 4-nitro­phenyl­hydrazine and 3-methoxy­acetophenone. In the crystal structure, the methoxy­phenyl ring is twisted slightly with respect to the nitro­phenyl­hydrazine plane, making a dihedral angle of 14.81 (8)°. The nitro and meth­oxy groups are each coplanar with the attached benzene rings. The nitro­phenyl and methoxy­phenyl groups are located on opposite sides of the C=N double bond, indicating an E configuration of the mol­ecule. Adjacent mol­ecules are linked together via N—H⋯O hydrogen bonding, forming chains along the [101] direction

3-Penta­none 2,4-dinitro­phenyl­hydrazone

Crystals of the title compound, C11H14N4O4, were obtained from a condensation reaction of 2,4-dinitro­phenyl­hydrazine and 3-penta­none. In the crystal structure, the mol­ecule, except one methyl group, displays a nearly planar structure. The imino group links to the adjacent nitro group via intra­molecular hydrogen bonding. The partially overlapped arrangement and face-to-face separation of 3.410 (9) Å between parallel benzene rings indicate the existence of π–π stacking between adjacent mol­ecules. The crystal structure also contains weak inter­molecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonding
