From the perspective of household consumption, China's consumption upgrading characteristics are obvious, and the proportion of service consumption expenditure is further increased. Online shopping consumption has changed from low-cost consumption to high-cost-price brand consumption.

On the other hand, there are still more than 600 million rural people at the bottom of the pyramid, and the per capita annual disposable income is only 12,000 yuan. It is this wealth structure that is widely disparity, which leads to a huge difference in the consumption views of different segments of the population. At the same time, the consumer groups of the adjacent classes will also influence each other.

From the perspective of demand level, China's consumer circle is characterized by spindle type. The survival demand and self-realization demand at both ends are relatively small, and the security demand and spiritual demand account for more than 80%. At the same time, as the income level of residents increases, consumption upgrades, spiritual demand gradually dominates China's consumer demand.

Consumer mind.
