"It might be better described as a shopping festival where people plan for a 'lifestyle upgrade'," according to Moody.

"This year, we have over one million retailers worldwide who registered both online and offline stores; we have targeted 52 core commercial areas globally and we ran 30,000 service centers in rural areas of China to provide quality products to consumers there," said Zhang Yong, CEO of Alibaba.
