Foreign media reported that in the past two years, the sales of condom products of Malaysia Kangle Company, the world's largest condom manufacturer, fell by about 40%.
made me laugh.
Domestic media would not be embarrassed to report this kind of news, so they can only use the words of "foreign media" to gain popularity.
Data from Tianyancha shows that from 2020 to June 20 this year, more than 40,000 condom manufacturing companies have canceled, with an average of 17,300 companies canceling each year.
It’s really not easy for everyone due to masks in the past two years.
A friend of mine told me yesterday that her company also laid off employees, with more than half of one department cut off. Fortunately, she was lucky and was not included in the layoff list.
I digress, let’s talk about condoms.
During the epidemic, I remember many people told me that the number of births will definitely increase in the past two years.
Because everyone is stuck at home, the chance of reproducing offspring is much greater.
Hey, can you not always think of things so simply? Having a child is not a matter of time or not. This is obviously an economic issue. cannot afford to have a child.
Taking advantage of the natural "contraceptive pill" of high housing prices, China's birth rate has continued to decline in recent years.
Just look at the picture.
In 2021, my country’s birth population was 10.62 million, setting a new low in recent years and a 43.6% decrease from 2016.
According to my country’s current actual situation and the world’s population growth pattern, this number of people entering and leaving the country will continue to decline in the future.
This is a huge problem.
Because my country's rapid economic development in the past 20 years is inseparable from the demographic dividend, people are gone. Let alone economic development, you can't find enough people to join a table to fight Landlords.
So a few years ago, there was family planning. Now, the second and third children will be liberalized. I guess there will be policies to encourage childbirth in the future. Everyone will wait and see.
digressed again, talking about this condom.
It stands to reason that people don’t want to have children, so condoms shouldn’t be a hot seller, especially during the epidemic...
This is conventional thinking.
If you can figure out why the sales of this thing have not increased but decreased in the past two years, it means that you are not simple, and your knowledge has surpassed that of most ordinary people.
You can stop here and think for two minutes, and then look for the results to see if your judgment is correct.
Okay, let’s announce the answer.
For example, during the epidemic in Shanghai, everyone did community group buying and bought supplies together. In this case, do you have the nerve to offer to buy condoms? I'm sorry.
There are cases where you can buy it yourself, but the sales volume is still very low. Why? Because according to relevant data, half of the condom use scenes in China occur outside the home.
Do you understand this? It should be possible. For example, during the epidemic, young people who are not married can no longer see each other, so why buy this thing?
I saw a few comments from netizens, which are very interesting. Take a look.
The answer is that simple. . .
Regarding this matter, many people have obviously overthought and misjudged it.
is not just an ordinary person.
Many companies have misjudged that the demand for condoms will definitely increase significantly during the epidemic, so they frantically produce condoms.
As a result, every family is now lining up to close down.
It’s an epidemic, get over it quickly.
I really don’t want to see such tragic and ridiculous things like people losing their jobs, mortgage payments cut off, and condom companies closing down. . .
