Abstract

The mode combining live-streaming with e-commerce, namely live commerce, is an emerging platform for interaction between consumers and sellers, greatly impacting the retail industry and consumer shopping habits. It not only promotes economic development, but also manifests some problems, especially amid the COVID-19. This essay uses online focus group interviews as the research method to help analyze and summarize the performance framework and interaction ritual between consumers and anchors, as well as the reasons for negative feelings during and after the interaction. Based on the perspectives of Erving Goffman’s dramaturgical theory and Randall Collins’ interaction ritual chains, this essay finds that the performance framework in live commerce is composed of performance areas, teams and stages, while the interactive rituals are formed by the virtual body co-presence, boundaries between insiders and outsiders and collective symbols. Research on live commerce is significant to help consumers avoid irrational shopping and indirectly improve the live commerce ecology in China.
