Pop Mart Chairman and CEO Wang Ning recently shared in an interview his feelings about the company's rapid performance growth in 2025. He compared the experience to a novice driver being forced to race an F1 car—while outsiders might think it's exciting, the reality is immense personal pressure.

Wang pointed out that 2025 has been the toughest year in recent memory, describing it as the period with the greatest stress, poorest sleep, and worst physical condition.
