信达证券消费团队分析指出，客观数据显示，泡泡玛特感恩节周度销售数据环比无明显增长，呈现"旺 季不旺"的特征。值得注意的是，海外市场自11月中旬起已缓解产能压力，供应链保障充足，但充足的 供应未能有效刺激需求端显著爆发，短期经营数据表现确实不及市场预期。 极目新闻记者 黄永进 实习生 曹亚丹 李秉坤 12月8日，泡泡玛特开盘闪崩，暴跌近10%，创近8个交易日以来新低，股价较8月高位以来跌超41%， 市值蒸发超1872亿港元。 市场人士指出，投资者担忧其在美国"黑五"促销期间的销售表现可能不及预期。 据了解，此前11月13日晚，公司核心IP Labubu新品上市，但市场热度显著不及以往，二级市场溢价空 间大幅回落。其中，该系列隐藏款的溢价幅度缩水超50%，3.0及4.0版本的常规款在二手交易平台的售 价更是直接跌破官方零售价。 此前泡泡玛特披露的三季度数据显示，美国地区销售额同比暴增逾1200%，亮眼表现曾提高市场信心， 但后续增长动能能否持续引发疑虑。晨星分析师表示："美国销售可能走弱，会打击市场对泡泡玛特增 长前景的信心。" 摩根士丹利近期报告指出，泡泡玛特正在从过去两年的"爆发式增长"阶段，逐步过渡至未来的 ...

Core Viewpoint - The traditional narrative-driven IP construction model is facing challenges, while Pop Mart has adopted a unique approach by focusing on "non-narrative" character IP, allowing users to project their emotions and imagination onto the IP, thus creating a new emotional connection and commercial ecosystem in the current era of personalized expression and instant emotional resonance [1][4]. Group 1: Pop Mart's IP Strategy - Pop Mart's IP primarily consists of character IP, or "light IP," which does not require a heavy narrative foundation, contrasting with traditional IP models like Disney that rely on grand storytelling [2][4]. - The core advantage of Pop Mart's strategy lies in its ability to create significant emotional space by not setting explicit character stories or single values, allowing products to reflect users' personal emotions [4][5]. - The "light IP" model is more flexible and adaptable, enabling rapid integration into different markets through a "global framework + local plugins" approach, driven by data rather than narrative [5][6]. Group 2: Emotional Connection and Consumer Behavior - Pop Mart's strategy resonates with the new consumption era's logic, where emotions have become a form of currency, and products serve as open emotional canvases for users to express themselves [7][8]. - The consumption behavior has shifted from "ownership" to "experience," where consumers seek immediate emotional gratification through their purchases, facilitated by social media and instant feedback loops [7][8]. - This reflects a broader strategy for modern individuals to cope with anxiety and loneliness, as instant emotional satisfaction serves as a form of psychological compensation in a fast-paced and uncertain environment [8][9]. Group 3: Challenges and Future Outlook - While Pop Mart's model offers flexibility, it may lack the depth of emotional connection and longevity found in traditional story-driven IPs, which can continuously evolve and engage fans [6][9]. - The success of Pop Mart's approach hinges on its ability to maintain relevance in design and social trends, as the appeal of character IP is closely tied to contemporary aesthetic preferences [6][9]. - The long-term viability and risk resilience of this model will require further validation over time [9].
