Within the exhibition halls of the second phase of the China Import and Export Fair (Canton Fair), thousands of booths are adorned with vibrant decorations, from luminous solar-powered garden ornaments to tinplate gift boxes printed with Christmas motifs. The dazzling array of exhibits has drawn buyers from around the world to stop and engage in business talks.

Ana, a 23-year-old visitor from Russia, was excited to discover that what she thought was a balloon turned out to be a candle. When lit, the flame rose from the "balloon's" top—a novel design that caught her eye. Ana shared that her original goal at the Canton Fair was simply to replenish her stock of standard envelopes and paper bags, but the "Chinese creativity" on display in the exhibition hall captivated her attention. She said she had already exchanged business cards with three suppliers and planned to finalize orders soon after returning to her own country.

At the booth of Shangyou Jiayi Lighting Products, sales manager Zhong Yuping was demonstrating an "intelligent flying screen" made of LED light beads to several European buyers. The screen can project photos and videos through a mobile App and be customized to any required size. Zhong explained that at the previous Canton Fair, a buyer from Thailand had customized more than 2,000 square meters of the "flying screen" for commercial advertising on building facades, and the feedback had been highly positive. She noted that this session had seen a noticeable increase in overseas buyers, with many showing particular interest in products that combine creativity and practicality.

In the gift zone of the second phase of the Canton Fair, each small yet exquisite product paints a vivid picture of Chinese creativity going global. As Nick, a Russian self-media operator, remarked, the Canton Fair provides opportunities for people from different countries to exchange and cooperate, and these fascinating Chinese products will make more people fall in love with Chinese creativity.

中国制造“礼遇”世界，小小创意点亮全球消费市场

在中国进出口商品交易会（以下简称“广交会”）二期展馆内，数千个展位被缤纷的装饰环绕——从会发光的太阳能花园摆件，到印着圣诞图案的马口铁礼盒，琳琅满目的展品吸引着来自全球的采购商驻足洽谈。

“我以为这是个气球，结果是蜡烛！点燃后火焰会从‘气球’顶端冒出来，这样的设计太新鲜了！”23岁的俄罗斯人Ana举着刚发现的创意蜡烛，兴奋地展示。她此次来广交会，原本只想补充常规的信封、纸袋货源，却被展馆里的“中国创意”留住了脚步。Ana说已经和3家供应商交换了名片，“回去后要尽快敲定订单。”

“这块‘智能飞天屏’，由LED灯珠组成，用手机App就能投影照片和视频，还能根据需求定制尺寸。”在嘉亿灯饰的展位前，销售经理钟玉萍正给几位欧洲采购商演示产品。“上届广交会，一位泰国采购商定制了2000多平方米的‘飞天屏’，用来做建筑外墙的商业广告，反馈特别好。”钟玉萍介绍，“本届广交会外商明显增多，大家最感兴趣的就是这种兼具创意和实用性的产品。”

广交会二期的礼品专区，正以一个个小而美的产品，勾勒出中国创意走向世界的图景。正如来自俄罗斯的自媒体运营者Nick所说：“广交会给不同国家的人们提供了交流合作的机会，这些有趣的中国产品，会让更多人爱上中国的创意。”
