去年中国人境外消费1.2万亿

Chinese Tourists Spent 1.2 Trillion Yuan Abroad in 2015

商务部的数据显示，2015年中国游客在境外消费约1.2万亿元，继续保持世界主要旅游消费群体称号。过去中国游客被称为“行走的钱包”。2015年中国消费者全球奢侈品消费达到1168亿美元。其中，中国人近八成的奢侈品消费是“海外淘货”的。价格因素是海淘最具吸引力的地方。数据显示，酒类产品平均价差高达64%，最高价差达85%；腕表平均价差33%，最高价差83%。而消费者常买的服装、香水、箱包、化妆品和皮鞋，价差都在30%以下。

In 2015, Chinese tourists spent a total of 1.2 trillion Yuan overseas, keeping their title of the world’s largest consumers while traveling. In the past, Chinese tourists have been referred to as “walking wallets.” Chinese consumption of luxury goods worldwide reached $116.8 billion in 2015, about 78% of total luxury goods sales. One of the main factors here is price. For high-end alcohol, prices are often 60 to 85% lower abroad. Watches are usually about 33% cheaper when purchased abroad, and can be found on sale up to 83% cheaper. Chinese consumers often buy clothing, perfume, bags, cosmetics, and shoes abroad for 30% cheaper than in China.
