Abstract

Entering the new development stage, empowering the modern tourism system by upgrading it with new quality productive forces (NQPF) is of great significance in promoting the high-quality development of China’s tourism industry. Based on the panel data of 30 provinces in China between 2018 and 2022, the two-way fixed effects model, the mediated-effects model, and the spatial Durbin model SDM were constructed using STATA 16 for empirical analysis. Results indicated that NQPF have a significant facilitating effect on upgrading the modern tourism system, which is reflected in four aspects: industrial efficiency upgrading, industrial technology upgrading, industrial structure upgrading, and open sharing upgrading. The results of the mechanism test show that the dynamic capacity of the industry plays an important intermediary role in the process of NQPF promoting the upgrading of the modern tourism system. In addition, NQPF has a spatial spillover effect on upgrading the modern tourism system. Based on the above conclusions, strengthening the cultivation and development of NQPF, optimizing the industry dynamic capacity, promoting coordinated regional development, and optimizing the policy environment are proposed in order to further enhance the overall level of the modern tourism system and to realize the high-quality development of tourism.
