Amazon product weird cover photo - Help translating alient text

HaiG on 26/06/2021 - 21:27

Hi,

I have seen this weird cover photo of products on Amazon many times, until to a point I find it annoying now and want to know what the text inside the cover photo is about. Can anyone please help me translate the text? (See photo in link)

I encountered this when clicking on Today's Deals page on Amazon. Whatever it is writing in the photo, I don't think it is serious. A photo of a panda with a man face and some big alien text should not be suitable to display as the cover photo of a product on Amazon.

    According to Apple Translate (Mandarin -> English):

    If you don't sell it, you won't live.

    Have you got off??????

    "You can't live without selling
    Did you go down????"
    According to Bixby translate 😂

      Thanks. I can say now this has nothing to do with the product then, but I still don't totally understand the translation in this context :-S
      It could be good way for sellers to convey their messages on Amazon platform.

        It may make sense if a native (Mandarin??) speaker reads it as a whole, unsure how good of a job the OCR ones do it but I guess you get the gist of it 😂

    If you don’t sell it, you can’t live anymore?????

    That’s what Google Lens told me. With the amount of traffic that is driven to this site by a Chinese Australian forum group, you would think that someone here knows what it is about.

      Haha. Thanks! That's part of reason I chose to ask on this forum.

    I’m not familiar with the subject, but it seems to be a Chinese ‘meme’ sticker complaining about Amazon listing hijacks (“gen mai”).

    Something like “Does your life depend on hijacking people’s listings?” said in a tone appropriate to the photo. Basically implying that listing hijackers should stop it because their life doesn’t depend on it.
    Or more literally “Without listing hijacks, you can’t continue living?”.

    This may provide some context (use google tl) https://www.yimisoft.com/article/detail/2428
