Online shopping lets us live like kings

Every day most of us take for granted the fact that we can order and purchase all sorts of items online, thanks to e-commerce platforms such as Taobao, JD and Pinduoduo.

The numbers who are taking advantage of this extremely convenient form of shopping are truly outstanding.

For example, according to a report on Statista.com, during China's annual Single's Day shopping festival on Nov 11, 2022, around 527 million people shopped on Taobao, while around 576.2 million people purchased items via Pinduoduo.
