On november 22nd, the evening of electricity (journalist yuen ka gae) in guangzhou, xinhua, the national stadium in beijing was "china red" and "sweetly"; in more than 10 hours, a lamp was lighted across the ocean from the united states town, with a warm yellow light full of rooms ... However, many may not know that most of these lights come from the same place — the town of ancient town in the city of mid-san, guangdong province。
The town of ancient history is the true “house of light”. This small town, which covers less than 50 square kilometres, has more than 30,000 lighting operators, which accounts for 70 per cent of the domestic market and exports to more than 130 countries and territories, accounting for 50 per cent of international markets。

The lighting industry in ancient towns originated in the 1980s. On the basis of the convenience of neighbouring hong kong, the local villagers produced their own lanterns from the first town, following a sample taken from hong kong. As a result, the ancient town lighting has gradually evolved from assembly of accessories, to the processing of workshops, to the production of scale。
In the 1990s, as the scale of production expanded, the archaeologists began to walk out of the middle hills, out of the pearl triangle, into the country and into the world, and the “light-lifting” became the “situation line” that was characteristic of the ancient town at that time. In order to accelerate development, the local government has also assisted in the establishment of the “lights of long street” and the organization of continuous light fairs. The light in the town of nakayama is famous, and it goes on to become a local “business card”。
The town has successfully organized 31 ancient town fairs to attract domestic and international viewers to the fair. Xinhua
“there was a strong investment climate in ancient town.” the chairman of the board of directors of matsui lighting and electrical co. Ltd. In nakayama city recalled that 23 years earlier, he had come from shaanxi to the town of koo, where he had seen the thousands of employees of the lantern factory, who had been shocked and had decided to go into the lighting industry. In view of the business opportunities and prospects for the development of the industry, he began with 300 square metres of rented plant, making the enterprise a national brand now owned by more than 1,000 businesses。
“the platform dividend created by the regional industry has brought about a convergence effect, which has created the largest global market for lamps.” shevé said that the town of ancient town had an open and inclusive business environment, “which allowed many outsiders like me to start businesses to bring their families here and root them in”
Shevai's experience is a microcosm of the development of lighting in ancient towns. Over the decades, a group of entrepreneurs have emerged here, creating thousands of companies, large and small, and forming a complete chain of lighting industries ranging from r & d design, raw materials procurement, processing and manufacturing to warehousing logistics, wholesale and retail。
From nothing to nothing, from childhood to age, the old town lighting has become one of the world's most well-organized and productive clusters of light industry and a source of global “light”。
The light of ancient towns shines across the globe and attracts more pursuers. Syrian lamps traders came here in 2012, forming their own trading companies and opening factories. He is now busy posting video products online and participating in various professional exhibitions. “my clients used to come only from syria and a few neighbouring countries. But in china, after the light, i can sell the product to the world."。

From a lamp to an industrial cluster, from a small town to the “house of lanterns”, the steps of innovation in ancient town have never stopped. Today's ancient lights are moving towards intellectualization and digitalization, with new trends in high-tech, customized lighting, and a number of enterprises with technological and innovative capabilities emerging, developing, catching up and growing。
“our high power lighting lamps are more than 50 per cent more energy-efficient than market-oriented lamps.” according to dong wenjun, president of china-corongian science and technology ltd., companies integrated smart and green technologies into lighting products through productive research, not only achieving more efficient energy use but also reducing pollution of the environment。

From “lighting” to “buying and selling the world”, “strike” and “innovation” have been key words for the light industry in ancient town. As of september this year, there were 126 high-quality new enterprises, 18 specialty new enterprises, 148 enterprises promoting digitally intelligent transformation, and some 1,500 research and development workers。
The successful conversion of industrial designs has also been promoted in parallel with the extraction of talent through the china international lamp design competition, the special competition on lighting design for industrial design in the town of daesyuk in nakayama。
The director of the department of industrial information and science and technology, department of industry and commerce of the town of guo town, explained that, as a next step, the town of guo town would be able to improve the global competitiveness of the lighting and lighting industry around a strong chain of lighting industries, with strategic and emerging industries taking the lead enterprise to upgrade the industrial chain upstream and downstream。
