Industry Challenges - The tourism industry is highly susceptible to uncontrollable risks such as natural disasters, as evidenced by the recent flood in Guilin, which poses ongoing threats to business operations [12]. - Intense competition in the tourism sector, with emerging group tourism enterprises, pressures Guilin Tourism to enhance product innovation and service quality to maintain market share [13]. - The company's diverse operations across various sectors complicate management, necessitating improved coordination and efficiency to mitigate operational risks [14]. - Price control limitations imposed by government regulations on ticket pricing challenge the company's ability to manage costs effectively [15].
