Looking for the next big thing before it blows up? Welcome to OrientDeck’s Weekly Roundup, where we dig through China’s buzzing e-commerce and social media scenes to bring you the most viral, innovative, and downright cool products making waves right now. From TikTok-famous gadgets to stealthy lifestyle upgrades, these are the finds you won’t want to miss.

Why China Keeps Winning the Internet

Let’s be real — when it comes to innovation on a budget, China’s got the formula down. With platforms like Xiaohongshu (Little Red Book), Douyin (China’s TikTok), and Taobao driving trends at lightning speed, new products can go from obscurity to sold-out in 72 hours. According to Statista, Chinese consumers spent over $2.3 trillion USD on e-commerce in 2023 alone — and viral hits are a huge part of that growth.
