双十一的落幕！由于政策加大对电商巨头的限制，以及直播带货的兴起。今年的光棍节低调不少！外国网友热议_网文世界

Singles’ Day 2021 in China shifts focus from consumerism to social responsibility

双十一的变化

China’s Singles’ Day, also known as Double 11,

中国的光棍节，也被称为双十一，

used to be all about big discounts, record-high sales figures and flashy galas.

过去都是大折扣，破纪录的销售量和华丽的晚会。

But following the recent government crackdown on the country’s tech giants and amid a push for “common prosperity”, the focus of the annual event in 2021 has shifted from consumerism to social responsibility.

但随着政府对科技巨头的限制，以及推动“共同富裕”的影响下，2021年焦点从消费主义转向社会责任。

In Japan, it's pocky day. We eat pockey until we drop. I like single's day too, though. I'm a single man eating pockey. Anyone like me here?

在日本，今天也叫百奇节。我们吃百奇吃到吐。当然我也喜欢光棍节。我是一个吃百奇的光棍。有人喜欢我吗？（注：百奇节，每年的11月11日。不同于传统的单身节，它是朋友恋人欢聚的日子）

Never heard of pockey. Neither has Google.

从没听说过百奇。谷歌也没搜到。

I think he meant Pocky, it's a kind of biscuit in a stick form, sometimes coated with a layer of flavoured syrup (chocolate, banana), while sometimes with seasonings (pizza, sweet onion flavour)

我想他指的是Pocky，它是一种棒状饼干，涂上一层巧克力或香蕉糖浆，有时它也会涂上调味品。

I miss the days I can easily shop online back in CN, especially the fast delivery and the decent price.

我想念在中国网上购物的快乐日子，尤其是快捷的货运和合理的价格。

As a Chinese I confirm that we celebrate being single lonely virgins on this day.

作为一个中国人，那天我确信我们在庆祝光棍节。

What's the point of Singles Day on 11-11 when I'm literally single every day of my life

光棍节的意义是什么？我每天都是单身

I read the Globe And Mail, a Toronto newspaper, it says China's Single's Day topped $139B USD.

我看了《环球时报》，上面说中国的单日销量超1390亿美元。

The 11.11 Single day sale was just to show off how they can handle the volume.

I mean a lot of ppl i know they wait 2-3months to buy on that day.

光棍节大甩卖是为了炫耀他们的销量。

我听说很多人等了2~3个月，就是等双十一买东西。

As someone who mostly purchase stuff online, the idea of storming shopping area during a certain day is just weird for me. Like, you can easily find anything you want online with very little effort
Black Friday in US is a bit weIrd. Salespeople forsake the holidays with family to deal with frenzied shoppers

作为一个网购达人，突然有一天去实体购物会感到别扭。因为你在网上就很容易找到你想要的。
黑色星期五有点离谱。销售人员为了应付疯狂的购物者，从而放弃与家人的假日

I'm not really fan of China but I believe China is the future, goodluck

我不是中国的粉丝，但我相信中国才是未来，祝好运

I didn't know Happy Singles Day is a thing in China. I wonder if it's more commemorative than Valentines Day there

不了解中国的光棍节，我想知道这是不是比情人节更有纪念意义

ginnylin

It was a "holiday" invented by the e-commerce firm Alibaba to encourage single people to spoil themselves.

这是阿里巴巴公司发明的一个“节日”，目的是鼓励单身人士放纵自己。

China more grown up mentally ahead

中国在思想上更成熟

Easy to do when there is one authority controlling everything, in Europe and the US people get mad only for being told to wear a mask, this type of common goal would never work because politicians are weak and fear losing popularity.

当一个强有力的权威控制局面时，这很容易做到。在欧洲和美国，要求人们戴口罩的反应就知道共同目标永不会起作用，因为政客们的软弱，他们害怕失去人气

Hiren Dave

Don't worry not a single chinese male will left remain single very soon .Lol

别担心，没有一个中国男人会一直保持单身，哈哈

Lana Is The New Orange

What is singles' day? Single people go out for date or something?

什么是光棍节？单身的人去约会吗？

Yoga Wan

No it's not, it's day for single person in China.

The history coming from early 2000, so during this day men or women treat them self by buying what they want.

During this day so many discounted items

不是，这是中国的光棍日。2000年11月11日开始，这一天打折的商品很多，男人或女人通过购物来犒劳自己。

John Doe

In the Roman calendar, this is 11-11 day. How does that translate to single's day? The Chinese use the Roman calendar

罗马历的11月11日怎么翻译成光棍节的？中国人使用罗马历吗？

make some noise

Roman calendar tf you talking about do you still celebrate saturnalia or something

你在说什么罗马历？你在庆祝农神节吗（注：农神节是古罗马人庆祝的节日。最初，这个庆祝活动每年12月17日举行一天，但这个节日非常受欢迎，延长到一周）

G June36

It is called the Gregorian Calander, not the Roman calendar.

它是公历，而不是罗马历。
