國內(nèi)主要電商平臺淘寶近日發(fā)布的有關(guān)所謂的“懶人”消費(fèi)數(shù)據(jù)顯示,2018年中國人花160億元在線購買商品和服務(wù),較去年增長70%,其中95后“最懶”,其消費(fèi)水平同比增長82%。
所謂的“懶人經(jīng)濟(jì)(lazy economy)”是指一種新型消費(fèi)需求(a new type of consumption demand),從本質(zhì)上講是由人們想省時(shí)省力(time-saving and labor-saving)、圖方便的想法催生的。隨著生活節(jié)奏的加快(the pace of life accelerates),人們把越來越多的時(shí)間花在了工作、通勤和社交生活上(spend increasingly more time on work, commuting and social life),越來越不愿花時(shí)間在實(shí)體店買東西(brick-and-mortar shopping)、做飯和打掃衛(wèi)生上,于是“懶人經(jīng)濟(jì)”應(yīng)運(yùn)而生。
多是“平躺生物”的95后人群“懶需求”增長最快,且他們更多在居家用品(household items)上嘗試“懶人神器”。來自淘寶的統(tǒng)計(jì)數(shù)據(jù)顯示,淘寶懶人居家用品消費(fèi)較去年增長了28%,消費(fèi)者以95后為主,主要分布在黑龍江、浙江和福建。
用高科技電子設(shè)備(high-tech electronic devices)來解決家務(wù)問題,是“懶人經(jīng)濟(jì)”的一大趨勢。掃地機(jī)器人(floor mopping robot)、自動擦窗機(jī)(automatic window cleaner)、自動洗襪機(jī)、電動拖把等都顯示出巨大的需求。其中,智能掃地機(jī)同比增長50%。
餐飲食品方面,外賣服務(wù)(take-out food delivery service)已成為人們?nèi)粘I钪械囊徊糠郑芎玫臐M足了人們想要過上更為輕松自在生活(more relaxed and easy life)的需求。
與此同時(shí),懶人食品(lazy food)和用具的消費(fèi)也在激增。淘寶數(shù)據(jù)顯示,懶人炒菜機(jī)、懶人面包機(jī)等懶人廚房電器(kitchen appliance)年消費(fèi)增長了81%,自熱火鍋、懶人燒烤等懶人食品的消費(fèi)更是增長了150%。
由于滿足了人們多樣化和不斷增長的消費(fèi)需求(diversified and ever-increasing consumption demands), 懶人經(jīng)濟(jì)正迅速增長。專家表示,隨著消費(fèi)的持續(xù)升級(ongoing consumption upgrading),懶人經(jīng)濟(jì)將會出現(xiàn)進(jìn)一步增長。
