"2014, 1.8 million Chinese tourists visited the U.
Post# of 65629
The U.S. Department of Commerce says by 2021, Chinese tourists could be spending as much as $80 billion in the U.S."
Either you need a new source, or you need to cease having delusions of grandeur and making up stories.
Here is data from the United States Government and the office in charge of tourism:

This data shows that China is our #4 visitor on a per person basis. However, by researching this page (at the same government website): http://travel.trade.gov/outreachpages/inbound...rview.html discoverable is the fact that China spends more in revenue for our products when they visit us than any other country. For example, Japan is listed as #3. Japan had 3.58M visitors to the U.S. in 2014 and spent $17.32B in exports. China, on the other hand, only had 2.19M visitors but spent $23.77B in exports.
You may measure who is #1 by the amount of people that are served, but I measure the winner in terms of dollars and cents; and I believe most investors here do as well. After all, the primary topic of this website is "money".
