Event Background
During the 2024 Paris Olympics season, Chinese brand MINISO captured global attention with its unique cultural creativity by hosting a launch event. Recently, MINISO created a unique poetry cheer event on the Seine River in Paris, using a giant matrix of Chinese poetry scrolls to cheer for Chinese athletes, showcasing a distinctive 'Chinese romance'.
