Double 11 isn’t just about flashy discounts anymore—it’s a cultural phenomenon where Gen Z’s shopping carts reveal global trends, fast-paced logistics, and the eternal struggle between ‘I need this’ and ‘Wait, do I?’ 🧐💸
In a lively chat with students at the Central University of Finance and Economics (CUFE), CGTN’s Merna dives into how young shoppers are flipping the script on consumer culture. Spoiler: It’s not just about hoarding skincare sets or limited-edition sneakers. 🎧📦
🔑 Key Takeaways:
- Ultra-fast delivery is turning ‘I want it now’ into ‘I got it yesterday’—reshaping daily routines.
- Cross-border e-commerce is sparking global cultural exchanges (think K-beauty meets Scandinavian minimalism).
- Budgeting apps vs. midnight flash sales: Can Gen Z master the art of rational splurging?
