Highlights from the 2021 Beauty Carnival shopping festival
Mr. Cong (Kenny) Li, Founder and CEO of Onion Global, commented, "'Crush On a New Life' is the theme of our Beauty Carnival shopping festival this year, and as we continue to grow the event it has increasingly become seen as China's version of a 'Black Friday' shopping festival. We also offer the most favorable prices to attract more consumers and increase our user engagement. Finally, we are differentiated from other platforms as we can enable our KOCs to interact with their fans and introduce new brands to consumers by telling the essence of their brand stories live. As we move forward, we are reviewing potential opportunities to invest in and develop operational capabilities in the virtual shopping space, which will further enhance our ability to provide users with new and comprehensive shopping experience. With the rapid development of telecommunication technologies such as virtual reality (VR) and advanced reality (AR), we believe that the mode of consumption will gradually transition towards the virtual world in the form of VR and AR, as users continue to seek fresh shopping experiences in the future."
