  Old-fashioned brands tell new stories

  In recent years, traditional time-honored brands have adhered to the fundamentals, sought innovation, and took the initiative to approach a new generation of consumers in new national fashion clothes.

  In 2021, Quanjude will launch a new IP image of Mengbao Duck. This year, it will extend the creation of a new brand culture communication project "Mengbao Star Chef Live Room", launch a VR experience hall, launch digital collections, and tell the story of Chinese food culture in a way that young people like to hear and see. It is broad and profound, allowing young people to feel the charm and cultural pride of Guochao's creativity.

  "Innovation" has also become the key word of the time-honored brand NeiLiansheng founded in 1853.

In recent years, co-branded products such as Big Fish and Begonia, Angry Birds, and Glory of Kings jointly launched by Neiliansheng and the Forbidden City and the National Museum have been welcomed by young people.

In August this year, Danai Kung Pao Coffee, a new consumer brand created by Neiliansheng, officially opened.

  "We hope to use coffee as a carrier to implant the culture of Neiliansheng." Cheng Xu, general manager of Beijing Neiliansheng Shoes Co., Ltd., mentioned in an interview with a reporter from the Beijing News that Chinese people generally agree that the culture is based on Chinese culture. The popular fashion and common aesthetic orientation are the national tide, and originality is the core element in the development of the national tide. "If the product design is based on what is popular, it will not last long, because it cannot tell the story and the value is limited. If Product design based on an original concept has its own brand cultural gene."

  "Net Red" wants to be "Long Red"

  Whether it is an old brand or a new brand, it needs to move forward in order to continue sailing under the national tide.

  Zhu Ding, vice president of Xtep brand, once said in an interview with a reporter from the Beijing News that the national tide meeting is a very long-term concept.

How to truly project this cognition into one's own products and make products that consumers like may be a more important direction.

Yang Dajun also mentioned that just focusing on sales and live streaming of "net red" is not a long-term way to survive. You should have a deeper understanding of how to shape the intrinsic value of the brand and how to use a better method to convey the relationship between the brand and the product. .

He believes that for most Guochao brands, it is necessary to learn to use the phenomenon of Guochao to establish a relationship between young consumers and the brand in terms of product design, R&D promotion and publicity, and to resonate.

"National tide is not a simple phenomenon, nor is it the use of simple symbols and patterns. It can be expressed from more value demands, which will be more helpful for the rise of a brand."

  Yang Dayun also said that the current national tide is still in the initial stage of development, and new consumption trends will also emerge in the future.

The content of brands is becoming more and more important, and in the future, it is necessary to establish a connection with value demands, such as sustainable development, environmental climate and other social issues of concern to human beings.

"A good company and good products are not only cost-effective, but also include the responsibility of the brand company to the society and the contribution it makes to the society, which is also part of the brand's soft power."
