Zhuyeqing Tea Co.: Reassessing Strategic Direction
In 2018, the chairman of Sichuan Mt. Emei Zhuyeqing Tea Co., Ltd. (ZT), a tea enterprise founded in 1998, faced a strategic decision.

Bosideng: How to Revitalize the Brand?
By 2017, the comprehensive multi-brand Chinese clothing manufacturer Bosideng International Holdings Limited (Bosideng), founded in 1976, had become famous for its main business of down jackets.

He hoped to strengthen the position of the Bosideng brand in the Chinese down jacket market and even in the global market in the future. However, he was not sure which approach would be most effective: should he maintain Bosideng’s existing brand values or invest in rebranding?
