2024 is a booming year for the tourism industry. Cultural and tourism consumption has become a major force in expanding and boosting consumption, and the important role of "the tourism industry as a new growth point of the national economy and a strategic pillar industry of the national economy" is becoming increasingly prominent. With the expansion of the "tourism empowerment effect," governments and cultural and tourism departments at all levels of provinces and regions attach great importance to the investment and financing work of the cultural and tourism industry, continuously exploring innovation in cultural and tourism financing and expanding financing channels for enterprises. This article focuses on the policy support funds available for cultural and tourism project development.
Central Budgetary Investment Subsidy Funds Policy
(1) Special Funds for the Central Government to Subsidize Local Public Cultural Service Systems
1. Key areas: This includes projects providing basic public cultural services, maintenance and equipment purchases for public cultural and sports facilities, the construction of grassroots public cultural service personnel teams, and other basic public cultural service projects. Specific expenditure ranges for basic public cultural service projects include reading newspapers and magazines, listening to radio, watching television, watching movies, watching local operas, open facility services, and conducting cultural and sports activities. Maintenance and equipment purchases for public cultural and sports facilities (1) Public libraries, cultural centers, museums, memorials, theaters, stadiums, radio and television transmission (monitoring) stations, relay stations, satellite earth stations, and radio and television broadcasting institutions that retain their status as public institutions. (2) Maintenance and equipment purchases for public institutions such as performing arts troupes and news publishing units; maintenance and protection of provincial and sub-provincial cultural relics protection units; maintenance and equipment purchases for township and village grassroots comprehensive cultural service centers. (3) Purchase of mobile cultural vehicles.
2. Subsidy standards: Mobile stage vehicles are determined at a standard of 500,000 yuan per vehicle; public performances of opera (opera entering the countryside) are determined at a standard of 6 performances per township per year, with a subsidy of 5,000 yuan per performance; public performances of opera (endangered opera genres free or low-priced performances) are determined according to the number of endangered opera genres and the calculated standard (purchasing 100 performances per year, 5,000 yuan per performance), and provincial subsidies are determined. The provincial finance departments and cultural and tourism departments determine the purchasers of public performance services, the number of performances purchased, and the subsidy standards, and the implementation plan is filed with the Ministry of Culture and Tourism; the operating and maintenance fees for wireless coverage of central radio and television programs are determined according to the current standards; the high-definition interactive digital set-top boxes for ethnic minority areas are determined at a one-time subsidy of 100 yuan per household; the short-board project for national fitness venues and equipment is determined at 200,000 yuan per street (township). When arranging project budgets, relevant provincial finance departments and sports departments should avoid overlapping with projects arranged by other central government funds.
General project subsidy funds use the factor allocation method, including basic factors, business factors, and financial factors. The allocation amount is calculated according to the basic factors and business factors (each accounting for 50% of the weight), and then the allocation amount is adjusted according to the coefficient of the financial difficulty of each province (region, city) stipulated in the central government's method for balanced transfer payments to local governments to determine the subsidy amount.
(2) Intangible Cultural Heritage Protection Funds
1. Key areas: (1) Subsidies for the protection of representative projects, used to subsidize expenditures related to the investigation and filing, research and publication, preparation of protection plans, carrying out inheritance and practical activities, display and performance, publicity and popularization, and the purchase of necessary tools for inheritance and practice of representative projects. (2) Subsidies for representative inheritors, used to subsidize the expenditures of representative inheritors in carrying out apprenticeship, teaching, and exchange activities. (3) Subsidies for the construction of national-level cultural ecological protection zones, used to subsidize expenditures related to planning, research and publication, digital protection, rental or repair of inheritance and experience facilities, popularization education, and publicity and promotion of national-level cultural ecological protection zones.

(5) Subsidies for recording representative inheritors, used to subsidize the systematic recording of representative inheritors. (6) Other expenditures determined by the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Culture and Tourism.
2. Support methods: Subsidies for key projects use the project method allocation. The amount of project subsidies is determined based on the application situation of each province, the protection needs of intangible cultural heritage, the workload, project budget execution, and performance. General project subsidies use the factor method allocation. Allocation factors include the number of representative projects, the number of annual protection tasks for representative projects, the number of representative inheritors, the number of records of representative inheritors, and the number of tasks in the Training Program. Among them, the number of representative projects is determined according to the list announced by the State Council; the number of annual protection tasks for representative projects is determined according to the review of the annual budget for representative projects by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism; the number of representative inheritors is determined according to the list announced by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism; the number of records of representative inheritors and the number of tasks in the Training Program are determined according to the annual work tasks of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism. Projects listed in the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage Lists are not used as a basis for factor calculation. The allocation formula is as follows: Subsidy funds for a certain province = Number of representative inheritors × Calculated standard + Number of records of representative inheritors × Calculated standard + (Number of representative projects in the province / Total number of representative projects in all provinces × 45% + Number of annual protection tasks for representative projects in the province / Total number of annual protection tasks for representative projects in all provinces × 45% + Number of tasks in the Training Program in the province / Total number of tasks in the Training Program in all provinces × 10%) × Subsidy for representative projects and Training Program in all provinces × Performance evaluation adjustment coefficient.

A. Basic operating subsidies. Allocation factors are the number of museums, memorials, and national patriotism education demonstration bases included in the free opening list determined by the Central Propaganda Department, Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Culture and Tourism, and the State Administration of Cultural Heritage. Museums and memorials are divided into provincial, municipal, and county levels according to their administrative affiliation. The basic operating subsidy calculation standard is: 5 million yuan per provincial museum per year, 2 million yuan per municipal museum per year, and 500,000 yuan per county museum per year. The Ministry of Finance may dynamically adjust the standard based on the needs of business development and financial capacity. The central and local governments share the burden in five tiers according to region. The central government bears 80%, 60%, 50%, 30%, and 10% respectively for tiers one to five. Tier one includes 12 provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities including Inner Mongolia, Guangxi, Chongqing, Sichuan, Guizhou, Yunnan, Tibet, Shaanxi, Gansu, Qinghai, Ningxia, and Xinjiang; Tier two includes 10 provinces including Hebei, Shanxi, Jilin, Heilongjiang, Anhui, Jiangxi, Henan, Hubei, Hunan, and Hainan; Tier three includes 3 provinces (excluding separately planned cities) including Liaoning, Fujian, and Shandong; Tier four includes 4 provinces and municipalities including Tianjin, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Guangdong, and 5 separately planned cities including Dalian, Ningbo, Xiamen, Qingdao, and Shenzhen; Tier five includes 2 municipalities including Beijing and Shanghai.

B. Subsidies for reduced ticket revenue. For museums included in the central free opening list from 2008-2010, the central government fully covers the reduction in ticket revenue resulting from the implementation of the central free opening policy that year.
(2) Operating expense subsidies are allocated and issued by the central government based on the above factors.
The calculation and allocation formula is as follows: Subsidy amount for a province (region, city) = ∑[Number of provincial (municipal, county) museums in a province (region, city) × Basic operating subsidy calculation standard] × Central government's share + Subsidies for reduced ticket revenue. Provincial finance departments can allocate operating expense subsidies based on the progress of free opening work, museum evaluation and rating results, and performance evaluations provided by provincial propaganda, culture and tourism, and cultural relic authorities, and determine the specific subsidy amount for museums included in the central free opening list.
(3) Exhibition subsidies are allocated using a project method, determined by the Ministry of Finance based on applications from the Central Propaganda Department and the State Administration of Cultural Heritage. Museums, memorials, and national patriotism education demonstration bases applying for exhibition subsidies must have their basic exhibition outlines and layouts reviewed or filed before applying for funds.
For national patriotism education demonstration bases, the basic exhibition outlines and layouts must be reviewed and approved by the Central Propaganda Department in conjunction with the State Administration of Cultural Heritage; for museums and memorials that are revolutionary historical sites, the basic exhibition outlines and layouts must be reviewed and approved by the local propaganda department in conjunction with the cultural relic department; for other museums and memorials not included in the above, the basic exhibition outlines and layouts must be filed with the local cultural relic department.

Factors include: building area (10%), number of collections (10%), number of international cooperation projects (10%), number of exhibitions (20%), number of visitors (20%), number of research achievements (15%), and number of public education events (15%).
Subsidies for national key museums are adjusted based on the performance evaluation results of national key museums. The performance evaluation adjustment coefficient is as follows:
The calculation and allocation formula is as follows:
Total factor number for a province (region, city) = ∑[Number of allocation factors in a province (region, city) / Total number of allocation factors nationwide × Corresponding weight] × Performance evaluation adjustment coefficient.
Subsidy amount for a province (region, city) = Total annual funds × ∑[Total factor number for a province (region, city) / Total factor number nationwide].
