700 billion！A new record of double 11 in China! The news has been reported in medias all over the world. We could find some interesting figures from the reports：over 15million kinds of products join the promotion; the products are from 140 thousands of brands including 60 thousands of international brand; 700 billion business is formed by 2 billion and 250 million orders. Besides the figures, some newly things were built in the double 11 which could attract the consumer to join the event, for example : Live stream, online carnival，pre order. Now we can believe that double 11 is the most important sales period to all brands, so a lot of brands invest a lot in this event. But to me, my enthusiasm is getting lower and lower because during that period, there are too many promotion information, and you will get a lot of messages or mails from different brands which are pretty annoyed, and you will waste time to read and compare the price and buy something which are unnecessary.
