From Chaozhou inlaid porcelain leather goods to Daliang fish lantern lamps, breakout products at this Canton Fair have undergone a stunning transformation. The fair is no longer just a platform for trading goods. It has evolved from "selling products" to a grand stage where "Chinese culture shines, stories are told, and emotions are shared," several exhibitors said.

　　Powered by oriental aesthetics and ICH craftsmanship, Chinese manufacturing is breaking out of low-price competition and ascending the global value chain. The worldwide surge of interest in Chinese culture is steadily converting into real export orders, helping China"s ICH products reach global markets and gain wider recognition.

　　The 139th Canton Fair concluded in Guangzhou on Tuesday. As China"s premier platform for foreign trade and international economic cooperation, more than 245,000 foreign buyers from 219 countries and regions attended the first two phases marking a 2.2 percent increase from the previous session, according to official statistics.
