Blockbuster from Chinese tourists spending 1 billion pounds in UK on Christmas
Shortly after Christmas, the British ushered in a number of Chinese tourists. They are big spenders, in favor of luxury goods, set off the British luxury goods market and consumption binge.

The Selfridge Shopping Mall has been set up in the store the CUP cards ATM for the Chinese tourists. According to the statistics, the company had an average of 10,000 pieces of orders per hour, an increase of more than 40% over the same period last year.
