Are recreational activities a product of modern civilization?

Are recreational activities a product of modern civilization? "Happiness" is a new term that has become popular in China in recent years. With the rapid development of our country's economy, the living standards of the people have been significantly improved, especially for people above the white-collar class working in some big cities. These people are usually busy with work and have little time for physical exercise, so they have started to "spend money to buy health", and recreation is the epitome of this emerging thing.

There are very few independent recreation and fitness centers in our country. Most of them are not located in hotels, and only hotels with three stars or above have the capital to set up recreation departments. There are many recreational projects, such as fitness, billiards, swimming, bowling, tennis, golf, rock climbing and so on.

The leisure department plays an increasingly important role in hotels. It can attract more guests and bring more profits to the hotel. Every hotel is trying to make changes in order to maximize economic benefits. Recreation projects, constantly introducing novel and market-appealing entertainment projects. The recreation department is an emerging department in hotels. Domestic hotel managers are exploring practical management systems to standardize and manage the operation of entertainment projects. Currently, there are generally three common management models: the first is the traditional self-operated model, which is the most common. management mode.

The people, finances, materials and all businesses of the Recreation Department are managed and managed by the hotel. The advantage of this model is that the hotel can make unified planning and coordinated development according to its own development needs. The disadvantage is that it has poor ability to adapt to market changes, which is one of the reasons why most hotels have poor profitability in recreational operations.

The second is the business outsourcing management model. The hotel outsources the entertainment operations to professionals for operation and management, that is, purchasing third-party services instead of internal hotel employees to complete these tasks.

This helps hotels focus on their competitive core businesses. Companies engaged in professional recreation management not only have the characteristics of reliability, professionalism, forward-looking and systematic project management, but also can reduce operating costs and are more confident than doing it themselves.

Some ancillary or non-main businesses of modern hotels, such as beauty salons, dance halls, etc., are operated by outside companies. Hotel business outsourcing is a relatively popular management model abroad and has also become a development trend in the hotel industry in China.

The third is the independent entity management model. When the independent external business volume of the leisure department is relatively large and the market influence is large, in order to facilitate the development of the leisure business, the leisure department becomes independent from the hotel and exists as a new joint venture, shareholding, or as an independent entity such as a hotel subsidiary, such as an independent The club model is used to operate the recreational business.

In this way, hotels can transform the risks or uncertainties of recreational operations into operating in a normal and predictable environment. Due to the renewal of people's concepts and changes in aesthetic tastes, hotel operators should transform those recreational projects that are monotonous in form and unpopular with consumers in order to deepen the connotation and broaden the denotation, so as to better meet the needs of guests in both form and content.

In short, the recreational project is an emerging fashionable leisure project. It has a lot of room for development in hotels. Hotels will pay more and more attention to its research and development. As consumers pursue spiritual enjoyment, they will also People will like recreational activities more. Modern people pay attention to self-care (both physical and mental), so the development prospects of recreational activities are good. Recreation, as the name suggests, means healthy entertainment, which refers to a series of activities that meet people's health and entertainment needs.

Modern recreation is the result of the high development of human material civilization and spiritual civilization. It is also an inevitable requirement for the improvement of people's spiritual and cultural living standards. The hotel's recreational projects mainly include two categories: fitness and leisure.

In hotels, the recreation department can be said to be an emerging department. It is often regarded by some traditional concepts as just a "decoration" to decorate the facade. In fact, this is not the case. In the traditional Chinese concept, tourists "sleep at night" and "travel at sunrise". They are nothing more than "passers-by" who stay for one or two days and come and go in a hurry.

Therefore, in the past, the functions of hotels were often limited to "accommodation" and "meals". At present, people's concept of tourism has changed. Staying in a hotel is no longer about "resting" but "having fun" and "enjoying".

Especially Westerners are accustomed to sports and physical exercise. Such good habits do not allow "interruptions" and "pauses". Therefore, while staying in a hotel, the hotel must be equipped with various entertainment and fitness equipment.

1. Guests’ psychological needs for leisure services The business projects of hotel leisure centers must ultimately be realized through services. The quality of services is directly related to the quality of business projects and the economic benefits of the enterprise. Modern recreational services are the product of highly developed material civilization and spiritual civilization. Modern recreational activities not only require a modern physical environment, but also a modern spiritual environment.

Therefore, in order to provide recreational services well, we should understand the psychological needs of guests for recreational services. In addition to the basic psychological needs for hotel services (safety, respect, meticulousness, thoughtfulness, etc.), guests' psychological needs for recreational services also have many distinctive characteristics. 4. The origin of Yue Xing in the ancient history of Kangle, Gansu

The Yue family

Derived from the surname Jiang, the Yue family of the Han nationality is an ancient surname. According to legend, in ancient times, Emperor Yao had the title of Siyue, also known as Taiyue and Yue Bo. He was a descendant of the Shennong family of Emperor Yan. The Siyue was a very solemn and important sacrificial official, responsible for offering sacrifices to famous mountains all over the world. The Yue family originated from the four mountains. The most famous person of the Yue family is undoubtedly the national hero Yue Fei of the Song Dynasty. It was he who made the Yue family name popular. The Yue family army led by Yue Fei has always been an iron-blooded army that resisted the Jurchen invasion of the Song Dynasty. Wanyan Wushu said helplessly, "It's easy to shake a mountain, but it's hard to shake the Yue family's army."

Because the Song Dynasty was founded 320 years ago, Chinese traditional culture has been inherited and carried forward. Therefore, the genealogy of each surname became popular again to maintain close ties and harmonize the clan. Since the Song Dynasty, the descendants of Yue Fei have been named strictly according to the genealogy. The five sons of Yue Fei all have descendants and have multiplied in large numbers. They are an important part of the current Yue clan population. 5. Recreational activities you participated in and talk about your experience
