The cost of holding a wedding is getting higher and higher. According to the 2021 China Wedding Consumption Trend Insights, in 2020, the average wedding consumption of each newlywed couple in China has reached 231,000 yuan. In sharp contrast, the per capita disposable income of residents in China was only 32,000 yuan that year. In other words, it takes more than three years to save money on average to afford a wedding. One of the most important aspects of wedding expenses is the diamond ring. In the market, a 1-carat diamond ring may cost 50,000 to 60,000 yuan. However, diamonds are actually a scam from the beginning to the end. In 1888, in order to maximize profits, several major diamond dealers in the world united to form De Beers Associated Mines Ltd. Originally, the diamond reserves were enough to dig out more than ten tons a year, which was not a rare thing at all. However, after the company almost monopolized the global diamond sources, it only sold a little bit every year, creating the illusion that diamonds were scarce. In addition, it combined marketing with marriage to successfully instill the "preciousness" and "necessity" of diamonds into people's minds and made a lot of money. However, with the advancement of technology, artificial diamonds have begun to appear, which are completely consistent with natural diamonds in physical, chemical and optical properties, and are even purer than natural diamonds. As artificial diamonds are increasingly recognized by more and more people, we will have to wait and see how the natural diamonds that have become a "must-have" for marriage will develop. |
