Pinduoduo, the second-largest e-commerce platform in China, announced that it will cooperate with a provincial satellite TV station to host the upcoming Double 11 Super Night Gala.
Hunan TV, a widely-watched TV station famous for its entertainment shows, will co-host the gala with Pinduoduo on the evening of Nov. 10.
The theme of the gala is “Boosting Consumer Confidence.” During the gala, coupons worth 1 billion yuan will be given out to consumers through online and offline interactions, as well as other types of interactive activities.

“During the Double 11 Shopping Festival, all the discounts offered by Pinduoduo will be presented in the simplest way,” Chen said. “What they see is the best price.”
During this year’s Double 11, Pinduoduo will continue to cooperate with major brands to bring the most popular and most in demand products to its nearly 700 million consumers on the platform.
