摘要
This study conducts an empirical study on the impact of Beijing's rights to host the Winter Olympics on its tourist destination image. In order to explore how winning the right to host the winter Olympics would affect the image of Beijing as a tourist destination, online travel notes of tourists to Beijing were collected on UGC platforms such as Mafengwo, Ctrip and Tuniu, and the content and emotion analysis of online text were conducted by using ROST CM 6.0 and ROST EA. The results show that: 1) after the success of the bid for the winter Olympics, Beijing's image of the "winter Olympics" is more prominent, but not to a high degree. 2) The dimensions of the tourists' perceived image of Beijing before and after the successful bid are different. Before the successful bid, the tourists' perceived images of destinations are mainly reflected in the local atmosphere, attractions, transportation and Olympic venues, while after the successful bid, the tourists' perceived images of destinations are mainly embodied in the local atmosphere, attractions, tourism services and international image. 3) Tourists' emotions are mainly positive emotions, supplemented by neutral emotions, and the overall tends to neutralize. © 2021 Peking University.
