Abstract

As economic development and Internet technology advance, the network society is increasingly exhibiting the hallmarks of a consumer society, exerting a discernible influence. By leveraging media technology, brands establish consumer symbols associated with their brands through marketing on social platforms, thereby satisfying people’s demands and ultimately gaining commercial benefits. The processes of brand symbol construction and its production and dissemination mechanism are worthy of further investigation. Additionally, the process of constructing consumer symbols is also the construction of people’s thoughts. Some inaccurate information or misguided orientation may influence individual self-perception. An examination of the construction of consumption symbols can provide a reference point for individuals to objectively view consumption symbols and consumption trends, thereby enabling them to engage in rational consumption behaviors.
