"Our Times" 2023 Home New Media Conference

Wuyou Media Yang Gongzi once said at the 2023 Home New Media Conference that the current new media has entered the second half: the 3.0 era. The 3.0 era is the era of industrial new media. For home furnishing companies to find their own positioning in the new industry media, it is very important to have good content and monetization logic.

Mr. Yang discovered that although the brand has built a new media content and live broadcast operation team, it faces common problems such as the balance between topic traffic and brand tone, and the contradiction between home planting and low-frequency consumption that is difficult to convert. How home furnishing business owners convey the design aesthetics of their products rather than just achieve sales has become a hard nut that current furniture brands and marketing teams are trying to gnaw on.
"The inertial thinking in the furniture industry is to be able to keep one's head down and maximize the craftsmanship spirit of the industry." Yang Gongzi revealed that next year the Cyberspace Administration of China and new media platforms may make major adjustments, and home furnishing companies are expected to usher in a "spring" of traffic.

In the face of recent public opinion news related to new media, he believes that the Cyberspace Administration of China is expected to take four major measures: ① cancel low-price and divert e-commerce, and maintain a balance between controlling e-commerce prices and physical prices; ② resolutely reduce the number of individual top anchors and The size of the Internet celebrity economy that brings goods; ③ Strictly control Internet celebrity brands and exaggerated packaging and promotion techniques; ④ Vigorously promote brand self-broadcasting to increase the share of high-quality, high-customer orders and inherited brands.

So how does the furniture cluster find suitable new media breakthrough opportunities? Yang Gongzi gave three directions for implementation, namely: ① Increase dimension awareness and join the game; ② Reduce dimensionality to standard configuration and collaborate for growth; ③ Content strategy and timely explosion. And analyzed user portraits of furniture content. Faced with the portraits of three major categories of furniture purchasing users: the post-90s generation, those who are “on the market”, those who redesign and improve housing quality, and those who are avant-garde in pursuit of hedonism, how to cater to the needs of young people and create relatively youthful content and culture.

"Producing content is actually an art practice, and this art needs to be precipitated. What we really want to achieve is to make a beautiful human life a reality."
