– Lip stick king Li Jiaqi also shed tears, couldn’t find buyers for the items
New Delhi (EMS). These days China’s economy is faltering. Its effect is also visible on the everyday things there. This is the reason why China, the country with the second largest economy in the world, is in trouble these days. On the economic front it is facing setbacks one after another. The country’s leadership is failing to manage the economy and people are losing faith in it. People are busy saving money instead of spending it. Foreign companies have started pulling out of China and the demand for Chinese goods is decreasing in the world. Due to this, unemployment in the country has reached its peak.
The government’s efforts to revive the economy have so far failed. The situation has become such that even the things of common necessity have started becoming very expensive for the people. Li Jiaqi Taowao, one of China’s most popular internet celebrities, has 76 million followers on the livestreaming platform. Once he sold 15,000 lipsticks in five minutes in a sales competition against Alibaba founder Jack Ma. After this he became famous as the Lipstick King of China.
Let us tell you that 31 year old Jiaqi came into controversy due to a comment. When Jiaqi was selling an eyebrow pencil in the livestream, a viewer called it too expensive. The price of this eyebrow pencil of China’s domestic brand is 79 yuan i.e. about 10.80 dollars. One viewer said that it is quite expensive. On this Jiaqi said that it is not expensive, its price has been the same for many years. Don’t do such nonsense. It is difficult for domestic brands to survive. Sometimes you should also look into your pocket to see whether your salary has increased even after many years. Whether you are working hard or not. His comment soon went viral on social media.
Many users have said that Jiaqi’s words have hurt those people who are working hard to earn a living in the poor economy.
A user wrote on the country’s microblogging platform that we work hard to earn 3000 yuan ($411) every month. It’s easy for celebrities to make money. We also want to get good job and money. Another user wrote that becoming a capitalist is a different thing. You’ve forgotten how you got here. Due to this, Jiaqi had to apologize to the people. He said that his words have hurt everyone, I apologize for this.
