01 A Ticket Stub Powers the Economy

The concert economy goes far beyond ticket sales. It also fuels related industries such as merchandise, food and beverage, accommodation, and transportation. Together, these sectors form a complete industrial chain. This chain has become a powerful driver of consumption and economic growth.

Fans’ enthusiasm for concert merchandise is also rising quickly. T-shirts and sweat-absorbing cheering towels are popular choices. Promotional banners enhance the atmosphere. Customized bags printed with artist images or concert themes serve both practical and emotional purposes. These products have become important ways for fans to show their love.

With this momentum, the concert economy has become a promising new growth engine. Seizing this opportunity is vital for industries along the value chain.

02 Pain Points in Industry Development

As demand for concert merchandise surges, supply struggles to keep up. Popular items often sell out immediately. Many fans are left empty-handed, and businesses miss valuable sales opportunities.

At the same time, the quality of some products is inconsistent. Poor materials and rough craftsmanship are common problems. Outdated manufacturing methods make it hard to produce designs that match modern tastes. These issues not only harm the fan experience but also hold back the industry’s long-term growth.

  • White and light-colored apparel remains a timeless choice in the fashion industry, valued for its clean look and versatility across work and casual settings, reflecting today’s preference for simple, quality living. Behind this “pure aesthetic,” however, lies a long-standing cutting challenge for manufacturers: preserving the fabric’s original beauty while ensuring production efficiency and precision. 01 White Fabric Cutting: A Seemingly Simple but Highly Demanding Challenge In the business world, real pain points are often hidden within needs that appear simple at first glance. Consumers expect white apparel to be clean and flawless, breathable and comfortable, and durable down to the finest details—but meeting all three expectations at once is a real challenge for manufacturers. Natural cotton, linen, and eco-friendly specialty fabrics offer excellent breathability and comfort, yet they are extremely difficult to cut. Traditional laser cutting generates high heat that can cause yellowing, darkening, or scorching along the edges—an almost “fatal flaw” for white fabrics. The result is either scrapped material or compromised brand reputation, driving up waste and production costs. At the same time, modern garment features such as seamless pockets and waterproof bonding tapes require highly precise cutting to ensure quality. Inaccurate cuts from traditional methods often lead...

  • The true refinement of automotive interiors is often hidden in the details you don’t immediately see. From a single piece of plastic raw material to a contoured trim part that fits seamlessly into the cabin, the precision and efficiency of the cutting process directly define the upper limit of product quality—and ultimately shape a manufacturer’s core competitiveness. 01 The Dual Challenge of Cutting Complex Automotive Interior Components As you sit inside a vehicle and run your fingers along the smooth curves of the center console or the precisely cut openings on the door panels, you probably don’t stop to think about how these complex, contoured parts are produced with such consistency. For automotive component manufacturers, however, achieving this level of precision has long been a hidden pain point in production. Traditional stamping dies are bulky and costly to change over, making them ill-suited for customized or irregularly shaped interior parts. Manual trimming, on the other hand, relies heavily on operator experience, often resulting in inconsistent accuracy, excessive burrs, and additional finishing processes that consume time, labor, and may even compromise part precision. As a result, the machining of complex interior parts is often trapped in a dilemma between low efficiency...
