Who is the founder of the expo and who hosts the expo

The World Expo is an international expo event with great influence and a long history organized by the host country or entrusted by the relevant departments. Exhibitors present to the world the achievements of contemporary culture, technology and industry that have a positive impact on various aspects of life.

2. The origin of the World Expo was the regular market of European merchants in the Middle Ages, and the market was only concerned with the economy at first. By the 19th century, the business community had risen in Europe, the scale of the market was gradually expanding, the types of goods traded and the people involved in it became more and more, and the scope of influence became larger and larger, from the economy to the art of life to the philosophy of life ideals and ......By the 20s of the 19th century, this large-scale market became an exposition.

In ancient agrarian societies, people often traded in festivals to celebrate harvests, religious ceremonies, and celebrations, and later gradually developed into regular, fixed-place, large-scale ** and display gatherings for the purpose of exchanging goods. This was the earliest form of the World Expo. In the 5th century AD, Persia hosted the first exhibition that went beyond the function of a bazaar.

In the century, with the continuous emergence of new technologies and new products, people gradually thought of holding exhibitions similar to bazaars, but only for exhibitions and not for sale, with the purpose of publicizing and exhibiting new products and achievements. In 1791, the Czech Republic held its first such exhibition in the capital Prague. With the progress of science and technology and the development of social productive forces, the scale of the exhibition has gradually expanded, and the geographical scope of the exhibition has expanded from one place to the whole country, from domestic to foreign, until it has developed into a world expo with the participation of many countries.

China's first participation in the World Exposition should have started at the London World Exposition in 1851, when Xu Rongcun, a businessman from Guangdong, China, packed his "Rongji Lake Silk" into 12 bundles and shipped them to the United Kingdom. Xu Rongcun (1822-1873) The name Ruiheng, the word Deqiong, the number Rong Village. Guangdong Xiangshan Gongbei Beiling people.

Less is better to learn. Later, he went abroad to do business and traveled to the southeast seaports. In Shanghai, Jiangsu and Zhejiang, he operated the silk tea industry, and accumulated a huge amount of money in several years.

After the opening of Shanghai, the first batch of merchants to come to Shanghai served as compradors in the British merchant "Det Company". He took "the goods are of the highest quality, and the price of the goods is sold" as the way of doing business, and he operated silk, tea, and the famous business community in Shanghai. In the first year of Xianfeng in the Qing Dynasty (1851), the World Exposition was held in London, England, and Xu Rongcun sent 12 packages of "Lake Silk" to participate in the exhibition.

The British king gave each a gold and silver medal, and gave a license to the "Winged Flying Foreigner", allowing the "Lake Silk" to enter the British market. This is the first time that a Chinese product has won the first gold medal at the World Expo, decades before Kweichow Moutai. He was awarded the title of Doctor Fengzheng and was a candidate for wearing Hualing.

After Xu Faji, he used more than 100,000 yuan to support the construction of his hometown. The first person in China to be the first person in the World Expo If there was no World Expo, Xu Rongcun would only be quite famous in the ten-mile foreign field where thousands of merchants gathered, and the holding of the World Expo would have doubled the value of this Guangdong businessman, and he would have been famous all over the world, and since then he has left a shining page in the history of the World Expo. In 1851, the United Kingdom on the other side of the Atlantic announced the holding of the World Expo, the United Kingdom at that time attached great importance to the World Expo, Queen Victoria in the name of the country, through diplomatic channels, invited more than 10 countries to participate in the exhibition, during this period, also carried out exhibits and craft evaluation activities.

This news traveled far and wide, and of course it also spread to China, which is across the ocean. Xu Rongcun's business sense is not incumbent, and he is immediately keenly aware of the huge opportunities that lie within. Therefore, he quickly packed his own "Rong Ji Lake Silk" into 12 bundles and urgently consigned them to the United Kingdom.

However, because the packaging of "Rong Ji Lake Silk" is too coarse, it has not been favored by Westerners who attach importance to packaging at the World Expo. Fortunately, Xu Rongcun selected the lake silk is a fine silk, fortunately, the World Expo was held for half a year, "Rong Ji Lake Silk" has gone through the test of time, and finally won the gold and silver awards.

Due to the presence of Chinese exhibits at the first London Expo, Xisheng was invited to attend the opening ceremony of the London Expo as a guest.
