In this June paid episode, we timely discuss one of the Chinese people's "traditional holidays"—"618" and "Double 11." Since the 2010s, shopping festivals centered around "Double 11" and "618" have been artificially constructed into a nationwide consumption frenzy. Platforms, brands, suppliers, and consumers have all enthusiastically chased growth. In recent years, with shifts in consumption trends, profound changes have occurred in both the landscape of shopping festivals and the e-commerce industry. In this episode, we once again invite the popular Teacher Li Dazang to return, to discuss the history of the evolution of shopping festivals with Chinese characteristics over the past decade, and to share the secrets of the e-commerce industry from the perspective of a retail veteran.
