This lottery-like marketing strategy easily stimulates consumers' desire to purchase and has become one of the marketing methods attracting youth consumption. As businesses across various industries have discovered the profitability of the blind box market, many hope to share in the profits. Beyond the initial toys, blind box fever has spread to sectors such as dining, beauty, stationery, and books, making blind boxes ubiquitous in the consumer market.

Jiang Nanchun's New Book 'The Dividend of Hearts and Minds': A Chinese Brand Methodology Earned with 100 Billion Yuan in Advertising Spend
