　　On the 13th, two days after Avatar was shown again, the global box office exceeded 2.8 billion dollars, regaining the global box office champion from Avengers 4. Although Avatar is not a simple re-release, but an upgraded version with the latest 3D technology, the movie screen is more shocking than that of that year, and the viewers are mostly iron tickets of that year.

　　Although Avatar is a classic, it can’t get rid of the positioning of entertainment products. In the reality of fast food consumption of entertainment products, Avatar still has a strong appeal at the box office in China, highlighting the shortage of good entertainment products in the realistic context, or the entertainment thirst caused by the epidemic. Avatar successfully seized this opportunity, and presented a nostalgic entertainment feast to China audience in time through re-screening.

　　Director James Cameron paid tribute to the audience in China, and specially emphasized the potential of the box office market in China. This is not a compliment, but a heartfelt one. If China’s box office market was still in a slight disadvantage compared with North America’s box office market a few years ago, now China’s movie box office is the world’s most unshakable. Especially last year, even though the China cinema opened late due to the epidemic and was not fully staffed, the box office in China has already led the world. This year’s Spring Festival schedule, Valentine’s Day and the Spring Festival overlap, which invisibly lengthened the schedule. Coupled with the box office demand that the epidemic was suppressed last year, it set a box office record of nearly 8 billion yuan for the Spring Festival.

　　The faster the entertainment demand in the consumption era, the more demanding the consumer’s entertainment consumption habits, because there are too many entertainment consumption options in the network era. If the film works can’t trigger the sensitive points of the audience’s entertainment demand, it may encounter market waterloo. The box office fever from the re-release of Avatar also reflects this fact. After the in-depth test of online entertainment, the audience in China still have a high appreciation level of film works. China audience, especially young people, may have the impulse to pursue the traffic stars, but if the traffic stars play bad movies, they will eventually suffer a disastrous defeat in the market.

　　Avatar surpassed the box office of Avengers 4 again by relying on the China market, which not only fulfilled Cameron’s promise, but also once again proved the importance of China market to Hollywood blockbusters. With the improvement of China audience’s appreciation level, the influence of Hollywood blockbusters in China market has declined. Even if some Hollywood blockbusters try their best to implant China elements, they can’t arouse the interest of many China audiences.

　　The success of "Avatar" in China is not only the good use of high-tech elements, but also the fact that the floating mountain in the film, like a fairyland, was shot from Zhangjiajie, which obviously caught the attention of China audiences more than simply and rudely implanting China elements. On burning money to invest, China’s domestic films are not lost to Hollywood blockbusters; On paying for movies, China audiences are not stingy. However, from the perspective of scriptwriting and storytelling, domestic films still need to work harder. However, from Avengers 4 to Avatar, and then to the extreme of Hollywood blockbusters’ technicalism, Hollywood blockbusters have also fallen into the embarrassment of eating old books and lacking innovation.

Cctv news(Reporter/Yang Wei): By the end of the year, whether to lift the ban on fireworks has once again become a hot topic of public discussion.

On December 26th, the the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) Municipal Law Commission reported the record review in 2023 to the seventh session of the 14th the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC). According to a typical case, the report puts forward suggestions on the provisions of some local laws and regulations on "completely prohibiting the sale and discharge of fireworks and firecrackers", arguing that this is inconsistent with the relevant provisions of the Law on the Prevention and Control of Air Pollution and the Regulations on the Safety Management of Fireworks and Firecrackers, and local governments need to amend the ban on burning according to law. This suggestion rekindled people’s expectation of "fireworks flying to welcome the New Year".

The appearance of the "no-burning order" is actually traceable. At the end of 1980s, the incidents of property loss and personal injury caused by setting off fireworks and firecrackers in major cities in China increased year by year, and the safety of fireworks and firecrackers attracted attention. In 1986, the Beijing Municipal People’s Government issued the Interim Provisions on the Safety Management of Fireworks and Firecrackers in Beijing, which involved the prohibition of burning in some places.

In 1988, the Fifth Session of the Sixth National People’s Congress proposed to strengthen the production and discharge safety of fireworks and firecrackers. In 1987 and 1993, respectively, Beijing began to implement the management policies and bans on the safety of fireworks and firecrackers. Subsequently, 282 cities including Shanghai, Guangzhou, Wuhan and Xi ‘an also issued similar laws.

However, during the implementation of the ban, there is still a call for "lifting the ban on fireworks". After discussion and consultation, the policy of fireworks and firecrackers was "forbidden to change restrictions". At the end of 2006, more than 200 cities across the country gradually relaxed restrictions on fireworks and firecrackers.

However, the smog problem has once again triggered a discussion on the prohibition of burning fireworks and firecrackers. In this context, more and more people are in favor of controlling the fireworks and firecrackers. After 2013, the scope of the ban on burning has gradually expanded, and the policy of setting off fireworks and firecrackers has been tightened again.

According to the data of the Ministry of Public Security, in 2017, fireworks and firecrackers were prohibited in 444 cities and restricted in 764 cities. In 2018, fireworks and firecrackers were prohibited in 803 cities above the county level.

By the beginning of 2023, there were many measures to loosen the regulations on setting off fireworks and firecrackers, and changed "prohibition" to "restriction". Shanghai, Liaoning and other places stipulate that fireworks can be set off in specific time periods and specific areas.

CCTV News+reporter interviewed Wang Chengdong, a professor of administrative law at China University of Political Science and Law, and Xie Zhiyong, vice president of the Legal Research Association of Beijing Government and professor of comparative law school of China University of Political Science and Law, to discuss related issues together.

"News+"reporter: What signal did the NPC Law Committee send?

Wang chengdong: This signal is very clear. First, it is a response to the people’s desire to feel the lively atmosphere of Chinese New Year and festivals. Second, in the more than 20 years since 1988, under the background of environmental protection, the restrictions on fireworks and firecrackers have become a kind of prohibition, and it is a universal prohibition. This voice means that the NPC system, including the NPC Law Committee, reflects or guides this comprehensive ban.

From all over the country, this year’s Spring Festival should have a little more "Year" flavor, because this is the voice of the people.

Xie ZhiyongFirst, from the perspective of the implementation of the Constitution and the unification of the national legal system, the Constitution requires all laws, regulations and rules to be consistent with the Constitution, which is the basic requirement of a country ruled by law, or a basic requirement of the Constitution. Laws and administrative regulations do not require that all fireworks and firecrackers be banned, but require all localities to regulate according to their actual conditions.

Second, from the perspective of protecting excellent traditional culture or folk culture, limiting the discharge or banning the burning is actually beneficial to protecting air quality and the safety of urban dense areas, but it also has a negative impact, and the taste of the year is getting weaker and weaker, without the feeling of "one year in the firecrackers", which is actually a great and hidden cultural loss for us.

In a sense, some folk customs related to the Spring Festival now have the characteristics of cultural heritage, which we should protect well, and folk customs also need to be protected by the rule of law, so that people can have a stable expectation.

Third, fireworks and firecrackers are not only related to the issue of discharge, but also supported by the industrial chain. According to the original law, if an enterprise obtains an administrative license, it is a legal operation. If it is closed and banned, it will not only damage the industrial chain, but also damage the trust and interests of ordinary people.

Fourthly, this represents a good start, and such an approach also echoes Report to the 20th CPC National Congress’s special emphasis on building an innovative society. We should carry out innovative development and high-quality development, which is a good opportunity.

"News+"reporter: What is the record review?

Xie ZhiyongFiling review embodies an important constitutional principle of our country. Specifically, the subordinate law stipulated in the Legislative Law must obey the superior law, that is, the subordinate law must be consistent with the provisions of the superior law and cannot conflict. Simply speaking, all laws cannot conflict with the Constitution. The mechanism to ensure this is called filing review system, that is, when the subordinate administrative organ or the lower legislature formulates the subordinate law, it must be reported to the higher legislature.

The specific provisions will be more detailed. For example, some local laws and regulations should be filed with the National People’s Congress and the legal institutions in the State Council, that is, the institutions in the current judicial administrative organs.

"News+"reporter: What do you think of the provisions of local laws and regulations prohibiting the sale and discharge of fireworks?

Wang chengdongIn the past, there was a "one size fits all" situation, which should be viewed from the past time dimension, that is, returning to environmental pollution.

Environmental pollution is not only caused by setting off fireworks, but also by industrial development itself. However, it is undeniable that the pollution caused by the intensive discharge of fireworks and firecrackers in a period of time will increase rapidly.

Therefore, in this context, the demand for air quality will appear, which is also an objective concept. However, starting from the legal norms themselves, the understanding of the Law on the Prevention and Control of Air Pollution in various places is biased and incomplete, and it belongs to legislation with more emotions. This is also an objective reality, so we should now return to reality and return to the legal norms themselves.

"News+"reporter: Do you think we should "relax" the ban on burning fireworks and firecrackers?

Wang chengdongSetting off fireworks and firecrackers is an important traditional culture in China, an effective expression of people’s happiness or sorrow, and it is also a natural right of citizens.

This opportunity provided by the Law Committee is very good, which shows that some traditional powers should be respected and maintained.

In modern society, the relationship between man and nature is becoming more and more tense. Under this background, the traditional natural rights have changed from being comfortable, self-motivated and spontaneous to being restricted or empowered by the state through laws and become a legal right.

With the development of industrialization, environmental damage has led to the damage of people’s health, and the previous concept of complete control is not applicable to the current social environment, so we should look at the problem in two.

In addition, judging from the situation of national legislation, whether it is the Law on the Prevention and Control of Air Pollution in People’s Republic of China (PRC) or the relevant administrative regulations in the State Council, there is indeed no "one size fits all" for setting off fireworks and firecrackers. China has a vast territory and a large population, and the situation varies from place to place, from city to country, and from region to region in the same city.

The "one size fits all" of local laws and regulations does not meet the requirements of the Air Pollution Prevention Law and relevant administrative regulations.

Therefore, we should treat the problem of setting off fireworks and firecrackers rationally. In principle, we should not blindly "block", but should combine "sparse", "sparse" and "blocked", and combine restriction with guidance.

"News+"reporter: How to set off fireworks and firecrackers is reasonable?

Wang chengdongI think the reasonable way to set off fireworks at present is to set off fireworks in different regions and at different times to allow people to enjoy traditional culture. The noise of fireworks is also a kind of taste.

Mega-cities are densely populated, and unlimited discharge in a short time will not only have a health impact on ordinary people, but also cause greater damage to patients and infants. Therefore, in the areas around hospitals, kindergartens, primary schools and nursing homes, it can be properly controlled, while for other areas, locations can be designated and discharged within a specified time.

At the same time, we should emphasize what kind of environment we should live in, and more choices should be given to the people. Each city has its own characteristics, which should not be too dull. It is more appropriate to decide on the basis of local characteristics, provincial conditions, city conditions, district conditions and county conditions.

Xie ZhiyongIt is undeniable that there may be some dangerous factors and pollution factors in the process of setting off fireworks and firecrackers, which are also objective.

If the local laws and regulations are revised, the production and discharge of fireworks and firecrackers may be resumed to a certain extent, which requires us to further improve the technology. Now science and technology have made great progress, and the disadvantages caused by fireworks in the past can be controlled to some extent. Therefore, can we consider the off-peak discharge in different time periods and different areas?

Of course, this is a good opportunity for several aspects to appear together. In any case, we should keep up with our management measures and avoid the vicious circle of "rushing headlong into a hubbub and dispersing in a hubbub".

　　Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, March 11th Title: The two sessions revealed the "timetable" of the eight livelihood tasks.

　　Xinhua News Agency "Xinhua Viewpoint" reporters Li Jinfeng, Liu Hongxia and Liu Shuo

　　Regarding the tasks of people’s livelihood put forward in the government work report, at the press conference of the two sessions and the "ministerial channel", the heads of relevant ministries and commissions gave further responses and revealed a series of "timetables" for people’s livelihood tasks.

　　— — Task 1:

　　Poverty alleviation: At least 200 poverty-stricken counties have taken off their hats this year.

　　The government work report is clear, and we will increase the intensity of precision poverty alleviation. This year, the number of poor people in rural areas will be reduced by more than 10 million, and 2.8 million people will be relocated to help the poor.

　　Liu Yongfu, director of the the State Council Poverty Alleviation Office, said that in the past five years, the number of poor people in China has decreased by two-thirds. 150 poverty-stricken counties have withdrawn, and at least 200 more will be lifted out of poverty this year. He said: "judging from the current progress, it is not a big problem to complete the task as a whole. Now, it is up to ‘ Win ’ To ‘ Play well ’ Change. "

　　Shi Bingrui, deputy to the National People’s Congress and director of the Henan Provincial Poverty Alleviation Office, said that at present, for the poor population and poor counties and townships, further policy coordination is needed, and monitoring and monitoring should be strengthened in deep poverty areas, and efforts should be concentrated on precision.

　　— — Task 2:

　　Air pollution control: the emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides will drop by 3% this year.

　　According to the government work report, the emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides will be reduced by 3% this year to consolidate the achievements of the blue sky defense war.

　　According to the budget report, the central government allocated a total of 40.5 billion yuan for air, water and soil pollution prevention and control, an increase of 6.465 billion yuan or 19% over 2017, and the investment was the largest in recent years.

　　Huang Runqiu, Vice Minister of the Ministry of Environmental Protection, said at the press conference of the two sessions that the current situation of air pollution control is still in the stage of climbing with heavy load and a long way to go. Under some extremely unfavorable weather conditions, heavily polluted weather will come back. The key to air pollution control in the next step is the adjustment and optimization of industrial structure, energy structure and transportation structure.

　　Yang Yufu, member of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and president of Tianjin Lawyers Association, said that the improvement of ecological environment is the result of cooperation from all sides. It is necessary to quickly implement the compensation system for ecological environment losses, promote the transformation of ultra-low emissions in steel and other industries, and carry out special measures such as the treatment of excessive emissions of diesel trucks.

　　— — Task 3

　　Individual tax: reforming personal income tax is included in this year’s task

　　The government work report mentioned in the proposal for government work in 2018 that the threshold for personal income tax should be raised.

　　Shi Yaobin, Vice Minister of Finance, said at the press conference of the NPC and CPPCC that policy suggestions will be put forward according to the changes of residents’ basic living consumption level. This tax reform highlights the new connotation of special deduction, and the first choice focuses on children’s education, serious illness medical care and other aspects that people need most and are most concerned about. The reform will transform the classified tax system into a comprehensive and classified personal income tax system, and the next step will be to accelerate the start of the tax reform plan and start the revision of the personal income tax law.

　　Liu Shangxi, member of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and president of China Academy of Fiscal Science, believes that the individual tax reform must comprehensively balance the "purse" of the state and the "purse" of the individual. The adjustment of special deduction, tax rate hierarchy and taxation mode is subject to many factors, such as the need to attract talents, the need to simplify the tax system and the expectation of the society for fair adjustment, which should be comprehensively considered and steadily promoted.

　　— — Task 4

　　Rural revitalization: in the future, the right to use the homestead will be moderately released.

　　The government work report proposes to vigorously implement the rural revitalization strategy. Comprehensively deepen rural reform. Explore the split reform of ownership, qualification and use right of homestead.

　　Han Changfu, Minister of Agriculture, said at the press conference of the two sessions that in the future, the right to use homesteads will be moderately released, and idle farmhouses will be better utilized in various ways, such as providing entrepreneurial places for people who start businesses in rural areas, developing rural tourism and engaging in "farmhouse music".

　　Zhang Jiaxiang, deputy to the National People’s Congress and secretary of the Party branch of Zhang He Village, a nine-town town in Xichuan County, Henan Province, said that a large number of farmers went out to work, which made the phenomenon of rural houses idle more prominent, wasting resources and prone to dangerous houses. Moderately releasing the right to use the homestead, making idle farmhouses used for developing rural tourism or providing entrepreneurial places for rural entrepreneurs can increase farmers’ income and add vitality to rural revitalization.

　　— — Task 5

　　Medical treatment: cervical cancer, breast cancer and lung cancer will be included in the centralized treatment of serious diseases this year.

　　The government work report proposes to improve the level of basic medical insurance and major illness insurance.

　　Li Bin, director of the National Health and Family Planning Commission, introduced in the "Ministerial Passage" of the Great Hall of the People that this year, the per capita financial subsidy standard for residents’ basic medical insurance will be increased by 40 yuan, half of which will be used for serious illness insurance. The central government will arrange transfer payment of more than 22.1 billion yuan, which will be earmarked for medical assistance subsidies. She said that this year, cervical cancer, breast cancer and lung cancer will also be included in the centralized treatment of serious diseases, and the number of people to be treated will be further expanded, covering all the poor people who have set up files and set up cards, rural poor people and rural minimum living allowances.

　　Geng Funeng, deputy to the National People’s Congress and chairman of Panxi Pharmaceutical, a good doctor in Sichuan, believes that the inclusion of cervical cancer, breast cancer and lung cancer in the centralized treatment of serious diseases will effectively reduce the pressure on ordinary people to see a doctor, especially to reduce poverty caused by illness and return to poverty due to illness.

　　— — Task 6

　　Housing: At present, the draft law on real estate tax is being drafted and improved.

　　The government work report pointed out that a new three-year plan to tackle the problem of shed reform should be launched, and real estate tax legislation should be steadily promoted. The budget report clearly states that in 2018, 5.8 million new shanty towns will be renovated, and support for public rental housing and its supporting infrastructure will be increased.

　　Shi Yaobin, Vice Minister of Finance, said that at present, efforts are being made to draft and improve the draft law on real estate tax. The real estate tax will be designed reasonably from the national conditions of China, such as merging and integrating related taxes, and reasonably reducing some tax burdens of real estate in construction transactions, so as to make the real estate tax system more reasonable and fair.

　　Sun Taili, member of Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference and chairman of Tianjin Qingda Investment Group, said that China has a large population and great regional differences, so it is particularly important to establish a structured and flexible housing policy system. On the one hand, increase housing security, promote the transformation of shanty towns and the construction of affordable housing to ensure the basic housing needs of the people; On the other hand, the introduction of real estate tax through scientific design and demonstration will help promote "classified regulation" and "differentiated regulation".

　　— — Task 7

　　Internet fee: cancel the "roaming fee" of traffic before July 1.

　　The government work report proposes to cancel the "roaming" fee for traffic and reduce the mobile network traffic tariff by at least 30% during the year.

　　In an exclusive interview with Xinhua News Agency, Chen Zhaoxiong, Vice Minister of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said that basic telecom enterprises will be urged to speed up the work of package sorting and adjustment, system development and transformation, testing and business verification, so as to ensure that users can enjoy this bonus before July 1. In addition, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will also encourage basic telecommunications enterprises to continue to promote traffic reduction measures such as large-flow Internet cards and stepped traffic, so as to ensure that mobile network traffic tariffs will be reduced by at least 30% during the year.

　　Some delegates pointed out that some operators still have difficulties in changing packages for old users, and discounts are only for specific users. Various restrictive measures have affected the actual effect of speeding up and reducing fees. Barriers to telecommunications services should be broken so that more users can enjoy the benefits of speeding up and reducing fees.

　　— — Task 8

　　Transportation: In 2019, every village will be paved with hardened roads.

　　According to the government work report, 200,000 kilometers of rural roads will be built and rebuilt this year.

　　Li Xiaopeng, Minister of Transportation, said at the "Ministerial Passage" in the Great Hall of the People that by 2019, it is necessary to complete the goal of hardening roads in qualified towns and villages; By 2020, qualified villages will have buses.

　　Wang Yanfeng, deputy to the National People’s Congress and secretary of the General Party Branch of Yongsheng Village, yushu city, Jilin Province, said that building rural roads is very important for rural poverty alleviation and rural revitalization. At the same time, we should increase investment to manage and maintain rural roads, and constantly improve the grade and maintenance level of rural roads, so that rural roads can become smooth, safe, beautiful and high-quality channels for getting rich.

The former was completely sold out after the rebranding, while the latter increased its revenue by 30% during the’ 618′ period. "

In addition, the group’s senior executive director, Yosuke Maezawa, and its executive director, Yutai Murakami, recently publicly stated that Kao Group’s advantages in the China market are Fulifang Si and Kerun, and for these two brands, the group chose to build a factory in China. "We will focus on the younger generation of consumers in China and grasp the local market changes in product manufacturing." SENSAI, a high-end skin care brand under Kao Group, is expected to open a physical flagship store in Shanghai this year and enter the high-end beauty market in China.

China has become L ‘Oré al’s second largest market in the world, and Estee Lauder called "China as the growth driver".

Compared with Japanese companies, the semi-annual reports of European and American beauty companies came earlier. In July this year, L ‘Oré al Group took the lead in releasing the results for the first six months. During the period, the group achieved a total revenue of 20.57 billion euros (about 161.99 billion yuan), a year-on-year increase of 13.3%. Regionally, during the period, the Group achieved growth in all regions. Among them, the China market recovered strongly in the second quarter, with a net sales growth rate of 7% in the first half of the year. The North Asia market with China as its regional headquarters grew by 3.9% in the first half of the year. It is not difficult to see that China, as the second largest market of L ‘Oré al in the world, is very important for its development.

In the analyst conference call after the announcement of the financial report, Nicolas Hieronimus, CEO of L ‘Oré al Group, listed China as one of the "five major growth contributors". He mentioned that the sales generated by China consumers at home and abroad accounted for about 23% of the Group’s sales, with an increase of 10%, which was ahead of the market average.

L ‘Oré al’s "old rival" Estee Lauder also recently announced the fourth quarter and full-year results of fiscal year 2023. In the whole fiscal year ending June 30, the group’s net sales reached 15.91 billion US dollars (about 115.9 billion yuan); The net profit was $1.01 billion (about RMB 7.4 billion). Among them, the net sales in the Asia-Pacific region increased by 4%, with an increase of 36% in the fourth quarter. At the performance briefing, the group highlighted that most markets, led by Chinese mainland and Hongkong, have achieved double-digit growth.

The group also said that Chinese mainland’s e-commerce business achieved excellent performance every month in the fourth quarter, achieving organic growth of over 30%, and its market share in high-end beauty products increased by 2 percentage points. Estee Lauder believes that in the future, Chinese mainland and tourism retail business will remain the main driving force for the company’s long-term profit growth.

The performance of luxury beauty brands has suffered from "Waterloo", which is caused by purchasing?

With the increasing number of tourists around the world, beauty groups have focused on tourism retail business. However, Beiersdorf Group seems to have encountered "trouble" in this business.

In the first half of this year, the net sales of Beiersdorf Group increased by 12.3% year-on-year to 4.936 billion euros (about 38.6 billion yuan). Specifically, during the reporting period, the sales of the group’s consumer goods business unit increased organically by 14.9%, and all skin care products achieved double-digit growth, among which the sales of the core brand Nivea increased organically by 18.4% year-on-year.

It is worth noting that the beauty brand Leponi, which belongs to the luxury goods business of Beiersdorf, suffered a performance "Waterloo". During the reporting period, the brand’s net sales decreased by 9.9% year-on-year to 294 million euros (about 2.3 billion yuan). Beiersdorf said that the main reason for the decline in performance was that Daigou had caused great damage to the Asia-Pacific tourism retail market.

In fact, many beauty and luxury goods groups mentioned the keyword "purchasing" in their financial reports. Some enterprises have an immediate impact of slowing performance after cracking down on purchasing, and at the same time, they are willing to give up short-term interests to protect the long-term value of the brand.

For example, L ‘Oré al Group said in a conference call after the release of the semi-annual report in 2023 that the slowdown related to purchasing in major markets in South Korea and China and Hainan put pressure on L ‘Oré al Group’s tourism retail performance in the first half of the year. Ye Hongmu expressed his measures and determination to maintain the China market. He said, "Our first task is to ensure the rights and interests of our brand and the China market. Protecting brand equity is a major reason for L ‘Oré al’s increasing market share in China. "

The Beijing News Shell Finance reporter learned that L ‘Oré al Group has been reducing the price difference between other retail stores in China and those in Hainan by increasing the price of duty-free shops in Hainan, so as to avoid excessive discounts or unreasonable prices in the tourism retail business. Based on this concept, the group has set up a working department named CCCT to ensure that the price and promotion level of tourism retail will not damage its daily profit in China market.

In addition, at the beginning of 2023, the top executives of luxury goods giant LVMH showed their determination to resist beauty purchasing at the analyst conference call after the 2022 financial report. Bernard Arnault, CEO of the group, for example, said that in the past three years, the duty-free shops in South Korea were empty, but the duty-free business recorded high income. The reason behind this is that the products are directly transported from the warehouse to the professional purchasing hands, and then sold at a discounted price.

Jean-Jacques Guiony, the group’s chief financial officer, made it clear at the meeting that in order to protect brand assets, Luwei Mingxuan Group has made up its mind to eliminate all parallel channels of tourism retail around the world. The annual profit of the perfume and cosmetics department of the group also fell by 3% due to the termination of this channel business.

In this regard, Zhou Ting, president of VIP Research Institute, believes that beauty purchasing is the hardest hit area for fake beauty products, which not only affects the brand image, but also causes huge losses to brand sales and profits. Combating fake products is the general trend and the inevitable choice for all brands and enterprises.

Zhou Ting said that purchasing this kind of behavior disrupts the market order and affects the price policy for brands, so that brands can’t directly face and serve customers; For consumers, giving fake goods an opportunity, the rights and interests cannot be guaranteed, and the final damage is themselves. She believes that purchasing must be resolutely resisted.
