Prologue
“Rusted Nail”
As of 2018, entering the fourth industrial revolution, the most popular ticketing system in tour sites
around the world is the "nail." Still, famous tour sites around the world take away tickets, give them
to tourists, and place one on a nail in front of the ticket office clerk.
Maybe the way they use is a little bit uncomfortable and cumbersome, but it's the optimal system in
terms of Earth and nature.
The9 company respects this primary ticketing system.
Based on respect, we want to have fare profits and advantages with tourists who visit tour sites.
This is begging of The9 company for global tourist industry.
Abstract 08

2. Problems of Global facility Operators
1 Problems of facility operation business.
1) Increasement of operation cost
(1) Increasement of fixed cost
Each country's policy toward workers is aimed at a rise in the minimum
wage and a mandatory reduction in working hours every year. However,
the sluggish global economy and inflation are driven by shrinking sales
and increasing fixed costs (especially labor costs), and by those issues,
operators are getting uncertain about their business conditions.
(2) Increasement of marketing cost
Business operators execute a variety of marketing and advertising
to increase falling sales, however, advertising and marketing are less
efficient than investment and operators are repeating a vicious cycle
of increasing the associated costs again.
(3) Decrement of LIFE CYCLE of business
The life cycle of global public works is getting shorter as technology
advances and information spreads faster. For commercial and
independent multi-use facilities in Asian countries such as Korea and Japan, five to 10 years of business is a permanent
cycle, a figure that has been shortened from 20 to 30 years ago, and the problem is that it will be shorter in the future.
(4)Diversification of inflow channel of customer
The development of the media has diversified the flow channel of customers. This diversity has confused the marketing
cost and marketing results of operators, and business operators faced issues about customer inflows.
2 Problems of global tourist industry
1) Problems of tour sites
(1) Settlement problems
Tourism is a service-agent trade, not a real trade, and includes many variables in commercial activities. Thus, unlike the
usual form of trade between countries, it is settled by the method of first-hand act and settlement. The settlement
procedure for general tourist trade is as follows
① The recruitment and movement of tourists ② Local tourism ③ End local tourism ④ Settlement of expenses
incurred in the event of tourism activities⑤ Cost settlement with the associated company ⑥ Sending invoices
⑦ Payment by international financial procedures

17 BLOCKCHAIN 9CO/T9 WHITE PAPER
The settlement process usually takes four to six weeks. However, the settlement is not accomplished like that.
According to the circumstance of an outbound company, problems such as settlement gets delay or unpaid issues
may occur often.
(2) Commission problems
Most of the tourist sites pay high card fees, except in some countries. In particular, for foreign tourists' cards, the fees
are applied differently by applying the country's fee rate. Card fee in Korea is around 3% and there are some countries
take more than 5% for fee rate.
(3) Lack of customer management and marketing systems
Unlike other industries, the system application rate is very low for a tourist site. Korea, Europe, and the United States,
where the IT industry has developed, are no exception. In Korea, more than 85 percent of all tourist attractions still
have no ticket system, and most of them are done settlement by handwriting. As a result, labor costs are higher than
necessary, and settlement accidents occur more frequently. Also, unlike the past, the portion of attraction and linked
management of visitors is becoming vulnerable and unnecessary management costs are rising due to FIT(Foreign
Independent Tour) has grown rapidity rather than group tours.
2) Problems of tourist
(1) Lack of tourist time
Since there is no operating system to manage the tourist sites, the risks are up to customers. Customers have to line
up to buy tickets and to enter the market due to delays caused by confirmation of their admission. Also, overseas
tourists have to wait again for a tax refund after the trip because of the weak foreign language service in the tourist
area. The absence of the system consequently infringes on the tour time of tourists who came for sightseeing. If one
visits three to four tourist attractions on a three-day basis, it will result in a waste of five to six hours of tourism time.
This results in wasted tourist time as well as impairing the chances of additional sales in cities where other tourist and
tourist destinations belong. As a result, it will have negative consequences for tourists, tourist destinations and their
cities, all of them.
(2) Increase of service charge and decrease of service quality
The project operator's management costs increase eventually leads to an increase in service charges, forcing the
price to rise every year, and the burden is responsible to the user. In addition, the increase in administrative costs will
eventually lead to a reduction in personnel and operational costs, resulting in a decrease in service for users.
(3) Problems of cost reduction
There are other things that foreign tourists have to bear. High exchange rate and disablement of receiving benefits
from tour sites or the government of the country when travel abroad. Most exchange fees are in the 5 percent or
higher range except for USD, while some regions in Africa, Arab, Central Asia or South America incur exchange fees
of 30 percent or more. Also, the exchange fee overlaps more than two times as you have to exchange money again
when you return to your country after the tour. And in the case of coins, they are becoming worthless because they
can not be exchanged.
In addition, it is very difficult for foreign tourists to enjoy the system when it comes to mileage issued in overseas
tourist spots or government-funded benefits to include tourist destinations.
In the case of mileage, it is not easy for foreign tourists to receive payments, and if they are paid, they are either very
2. Problems of Global facility Operators 18
limited or complicated. So the case of mileages paid to foreigners will be useless.
(4) Difficulties due to language barrios
While users travel abroad and use various facilities, they will face language problems. The use of facilities abroad is the
same level of difficulty for the disabled.
3 Absence of support system
1) Business operator’s burden of building the system
The only way to relieve the burden of increasing the cost of a business operator is to apply the system. Two things
are needed to apply the system. One is an operating program and the other is a device that can act as an agent for
ordering and approving, however, it takes an unaffordable amount of money to build an independent system from
the perspective of a business operator. That is why most business operators want to introduce the system but are
unable to do so.
Developing and installing and operating systems and related hardware requires 500 to 600 million KRW for Korean
standards, 1.5 billion KRW for European or U.S. standards, and 300 to 400 million KRW for Southeast Asia, but even
if they spend and develop those costs, they don't easily make decisions about the system because you don't have
the confidence or trust in a stable system. In addition, it is not easy for system developers to develop and operate a
pan-availability system by applying the characteristics of tourism industries with different environments by tourist
destination and country and In overseas cases, it is not easy to operate a global system operating company that also
needs foothold facilities in maintenance or management.
2) Absence of global expertise
Still, there are few companies that serve operating systems. This is because of the different nature of each commercial
facility and the different payment methods and operating systems between countries, there are few general-purpose
operating systems like Windows and Android that we use. In addition, even if such a system is built, not many
companies have global maintenance capabilities or know-how in integrated management operations.

2 Specialized Blockchain System
1) Specialized Blockchain System
The blockchain system under construction with EXA Lab is a blockchain system only for our business structure, which
is different from the existing pan-availability blockchain system.
This was established with the aim of linkage and conversion, and the linkage means; linkages were built around the
link between primary service operators, the link between users, and the link between service providers and the user.
The purpose of the conversion is to smoothly convert various figures based on user-centered convenience among
global countries.
The conversion of figures means the conversion of mileage, national currency, national currency, and cryptocurrency
currency and the focus was on reducing costs, reducing time and switching to a convenient place of use, and easy
payment.
2) Blockchain system for various purposes of payment
The blockchain system built by the TH9 makes payment the most important key.
It is a payment system that approve and builds cryptocurrency as one of the existing means of payment, such as
conversion and integration of mileage issued by each of them, and payment through linkage between cryptocurrency
and physical currency. Not just for cryptocurrency, THE9 built the system by adding the authorization system for
cryptocurrency to the real economy.

4 Suggestion of Solution to a Problem
1) Solving the Problems of Tourism Area Issues
(1) Strengthening the blockchain-based customer management system (Can be used for customer DB
management and marketing)
THE9 will manage and utilize the customer's DB accumulated through the business. To that end, THE9 will establish
and operate a global DB management system based on blockchain using EXA Lab's mainnet technology. A blockchain-
based global DB management system will be tailored to each country's management standards and will be a strong
alternative to risks from outside.
(2) Add blockchain-based payment system(Solve exchange, credit card commission, settlement period,
mileage issue)
3. THE9’s solution to problem 22
THE9 will provide THE9's payment system using the payment system of PayExpress, an ecosystem partner of the
company, which can be used for payment in any country. THE9's payment system will solve the problem of excessive
exchange rate and time of current exchange and foreign currency remittance and stable coins will be used to support
the smooth operation of settlement and mileage immediately.
Exchange
This blockchain-based payment system allows tourists to relieve the inconvenience and losses of currency exchange
and to use THE9's Stable Coin (TOUR9) as a settlement currency using their own currency in any country. PayExpress
pays the settlement amount in the currency of the country concerned, retrieves the TOUR9 paid by tourists, and
through this process, TOUR9 can be used as the payment currency in tourist spots or stores in the world where the
Kiosk of THE9 has entered.
In addition, tourist operators or tourist facilities without the Kiosk of THE9 can download the payment address code
after registering with the merchant to provide payment services in the same way.
Card Fees
The blockchain payment system provided by TheE9 does not require a card fee. Only 0.2% operating fee will be
incurred for the smooth operation of this system, freeing customers or merchants from existing higher fees.
Settlement Cycle
Problems with the current long-term settlement time generalized in the tourism industry and the consequent delay
in payment will also be made possible by utilizing the "escrow" of the blockchain payment system provided by THE9.
Mileage
Mileage also integrates and manages the mileages provided by local merchants and tourist destinations in each
country through the integrated mileage management service of the blockchain payment system provided by THE9
and PayExpress and tourists will use integrated mileage to pay for it or exchange it for legal currency through an
inter-user transaction through an internal exchange. This will solve the problem of lost mileage and provide various
benefits abroad through the utilization of the mileage. In addition, companies that provide mileages can enhance their
competitiveness through the operation of an integrated mileage system which is available anywhere in the world.
(3) Strengthening the Blockchain-based ticketing system (Virtual Kiosk, reduced utilization time etc.)
Unlike the existing ticket ticketing system, blockchain-based ticket ticketing system provides integrated management
of customers' travel activities such as payments, ticketing and mileage, and customers can enjoy the benefits of
ThE9, through its link to nearby stores and tourist destinations and in the case of tourist sites, peripheral facilities,
and related agencies, real-time DB verification and immediate verification, management and policies can be carried
out. Also, the Virtual Kiosk system can be applied to various types of devices, providing services through distributed
operation and personal devices to facilitate tourist or tourist convenience.
(4) Enhancement of kiosk and device
(Introduction of blockchain module, connection module with tourist facilities)
The9's business is not solely dependent on kiosks. It also supports the use of mobile devices and pre-purchases
through support of POS and entrance gate systems from 2018. These various devices will be linked through blockchain
23 BLOCKCHAIN 9CO/T9 WHITE PAPER
modules, which will then operate the personal system through the customer's connection to mobile or personal
devices.
Through the blockchain module, it can be linked with the surrounding tourist attractions and facilities, which can be
easily applied to discount sales of linked products and various marketing and events, enabling the establishment of
new products. Through the linkage with the current transportation facilities, we anticipate the size of our customers
entering the tourist attractions in one hour later, In turn, it will form an immediate management system through links
with the surrounding areas, such as predicting the expected use of transportation facilities through the size of the
number of people leaving the tourist site.
2) Solving tourist problem
The blockchain-based system provided by THE9 offers direct benefits to tourists. The THE9's system is a form of
service for one tourist from a tourist's perspective. Basically, all services are provided through 9CO Wallet, the service
APP provided by THE9.
(1) Provide monetary profit
There are three major financial benefits to customers.
First, mileage service that can be set aside and used by domestic and foreign tourists without discrimination
Second, very cheap currency exchange service and foreign exchange remittance service which can be transferred
immediately.
Third, free and discounted services through rewards provided by the EXA Alliance ecosystem.
(2) Provide time benefit
THE9's system provides a time benefit to customers.
First, through the use of the system, the waiting time in line and the time in translation are reduced, thereby
increasing the time for individual tourism purposes.
Second, tax refunds or various waiting times for payment can be reduced to eliminate mental instability and
discomfort caused by waiting time.
3) Resolving the Tourism System
(1) Co-business with partner firms from EXA Alliance ecosystem
blockchain-based payment, loan business, mileages, remittance : EXALAB, PayExpress
THE9 has achieved the speed, precision and scalability of the service through cooperation with EXA LabExa Lab's
BLOCKCHAIN mainnet system, which enables global service, immediately enables the part of THE9 that it has been trying
to build for a long period of time, thereby shortening the schedule for full-scale business expansion by more than two
years. Also, PayExpress' global hybrid payment support solution will enable early use of THE9’s stable coin, T9.
(2) Mobility Services in Blockchain-based Tourism Area: Nature Mobility
Nature Mobility provides a powerful component of the service content of the company by providing mobility services
4. Introduction of business 24
with THE9, the most important means of mobility for the current tourism style where individual free travel is rapidly
increasing. In addition, Nature Mobility's services will represent a strong partnership with the THE9 through its links
to local transportation as well as automobiles in tourist destinations abroad as well as in Korea. Future developments
in the mobility sector will affect many industries, and from the perspective of THE9, which provides Kiosk and tourist
operation systems, synergy is expected to be created in areas where Kiosk is integrated into a smaller version of Kiosk,
customized for each mobility device. Because there is no need to drive in an era of self-driving cars, there is a lot of
time left in the middle of the road, and the service can be utilized through a mobility-only kiosk mounted inside the
car to solve the problems that need to be solved through kiosks. For the THE9, there will be a mobility-only kiosk in
addition to Virtual kiosk.
(3) Co-business between EXA Alliances
① Linkage of peripheral facilities in tourist destinations
The linkage title of THE9, the EXA Alliance, basically integrates miles. At the same time, the EXA Alliance is able
to cross-produce the implementation of the linked product, the system will be implemented to enable integrated
operation between EXA Alliance freely, including the purchase of integrated raw materials and operating products.
② Linkage of general consumption life.
THE9's schedule is linked to restaurants, souvenir shops and hotels near the primary tourist area as well as tourist-
related facilities, secondly, planning to connect the transportation facilities with the local commercial districts, thirdly
systemically links with tourism guides and administrative infrastructure such as police stations and hospitals are also
scheduled.
This is the strategic goal of THE9's services to provide convenience to ordinary residents as well as tourists.
4. Introduction of business
1 THE9COMPANY
1) Eight Company Alliances, Proven Technology

conducting tests at one bus terminal and developing a tourist operation system in Bali.
4)Business goal
(1) Achievement of the World's Top Company in 2023
THE9's business model is a fee-sharing method after a pre-investment, which is unprecedented in the world. It is
currently starting in China, Indonesia, and Korea, With the absence of a similar operating system, it's the No. 1 player
