After spending such a huge amount of statues, the income of the whole park is only170 thousand, which simply makes ends meet. The launching ceremony of the demolition of Guan Gong statue was held on February 29th, 2020. This statue of Guan Gong, together with its pedestal, is 57 meters high. You know, according to the regulations of the Tourism Bureau, the statue in the park can only be built to a maximum of 24 meters, which is almost twice as high. Moreover, the manager also said that the park did not say that it should be so high before building the statue, but changed the statue itself without any permission during the construction process.
It cost a lot of money to build it. In fact, this is not a very good feature, because to say that the connection between Guan Gong and Jingzhou is a careless loss of Jingzhou. In fact, this is not a good historical story, but a failed case. It's really not good to use this as a propaganda point. And they spend so much money just to build a statue, which is a bit wasteful. No wonder the country asked them to remove the statue.
In fact, the local government is also responsible for this incident. I believe they can look at the statue so high and let it exist for so long. They must have acquiesced. By the time it says, it will be a little late for them to dismantle the statue. It also costs a lot of money to dismantle the statue, so the money is wasted. You know, it is not necessary to attract tourists by these imaginary things. As long as we do a good job in local humanities and culture, let tourists feel that they can really feel different when they come to this place. There is no need to waste so much money to make a statue for people to see.
