When it comes to November 11, what’s on your mind? Well, as to the old people, it’s only a common day. However, the young will consider it as the Singles’ Day as well as the on-line shopping carnival(狂欢节). In fact, on November 11th, 2014, Tmall and Taobao (the biggest Chinese online shopping platform) has sold out more than 57 billion yuan goods. This data(数据) has surprised the media(媒体)at home and abroad. Apparently, people have more interests on cyber (网络)shopping than spend the night with their single friends. Some home media even suggest that November 11th should be the Chinese on-line shopping carnival.
In 2010, Jack Ma, the CEO of Tmall and Taobao, had coined the term “Double Eleven”, aimed to encourage the single people to do something to celebrate their own festival. Instead of dating lovers, people go on-line shopping to relive(再体验) the loneliness. According to the survey, China had 564 million Internet users at the end of last year and 180 million single people. And the single people are the main force of the China’s spending power. The debut(开张) was a great success. Then “11.11” has an unusual meaning, which stands for on-line shopping carnival.
