中国经济要闻

This year, domestic e-commerce platforms and brands have upped their effort to compete with each other, including offering discounts and consumption vouchers to attract online shoppers.

Alibaba Group Holding’s e-commerce platform Tmall launched a presale campaign on May 26. For each purchase above 200 yuan, it offered a 30 yuan discount, and a 50-yuan deduction for those above 300 yuan. Cainiao Network, Alibaba’s logistics arm, said it will deliver parcels overnight in first-tier cities, with some major presale goods delivered in half a day.

Apple#39;s official online store on Tmall also joined the 618 shopping spree by offering coupons from Wednesday to Saturday. On Wednesday night, the Apple store ran its first livestreaming event on Tmall, which lasted about one hour and attracted an audience of 1.28 million people, data showed.

The 618 shopping spree is an important window in observing new consumption trends, and also a barometer of China#39;s consumer market. This year#39;s 618 is also the first large-scale shopping festival since the country#39;s adjustment of COVID-19 response measures in January, garnering widespread attention.

继3月初京东全面上线百亿补贴频道后，今年京东618，参与百亿补贴的商品数量将达到3月的10倍以上。除黄金等品类外，京东百亿补贴商品也将全面享受“买贵双倍赔”服务。而淘宝天猫的百亿补贴则更聚焦于3C产品尤其是iPhone系列。另一边，拼多多今年则打出了“天天都是618”的概念，并不断扩充百亿补贴的商品覆盖范围，火力同样聚焦在数码3C。
