More and more enterprises have begun to enter the high-end brand market. But for a long time, the whole industry has been deeply affected by black media, Blackwater. Army hazards. They deliberately discredit the Chinese brand image, deliberately misleading consumers and profiting from it. Especially in the special period when consumers' willingness to purchase is weakened and the industry growth slows down, it has a bad influence on the Chinese brand image. In this regard, the association On October 29, P18 member companies were urgently convened to hold a special teleconference to communicate the relevant situation, listen to industry opinions and suggestions, and revisit the Beijing Declaration. The participating companies agreed that the industry should solemnly declare and resolutely oppose the black media, Blackwater Army.
