Digital Intelligence Civilization Drives New Business Civilization: A Theoretical Framework for the Collaborative Ecosystem of Digital Culture and Tourism Industry

Abstract

The promotion and utilization of information technology have promoted the transformation and upgrading of the industrial structure and economic structure of cultural tourism, making the traditional operation methods no longer applicable to the current operating environment. This paper analyzes the triple coupling mechanism of the cultural tourism industry, information technology and the ecological environment from the synergy of four elements: space, economy, culture and ecology. On this basis, the system dynamics concept is used to view the digital cultural tourism industry and ecological protection as a unified whole, to build a synergistic logic between the main factors in the whole, and to analyze the synergistic relationship between the two subsystems using the DPSIR framework. The results of the empirical analysis of the synergistic development efficiency of each region in China from 2011 to 2020 show that the coefficient of variation of the digital cultural tourism subsystem is the largest, which is between 1.1836 and 1.3705, indicating that the development level of digital cultural tourism varies greatly among Chinese provinces. The mean values of the integration synergy degree of the four-time nodes are 0.2226, 0.2678, 0.3549 and 0.4052, respectively, and the level of integration synergy is generally on the rise. In this paper, we effectively promote the integration of the cultural tourism industry and the ecological environment through information technology while being able to utilize ecological capital in perpetuity and realize the high-quality development of the cultural tourism industry.
