brand introduction
Grumpy Cat, also known as grumpy cat, became a popular feline in 2012. Its original name was Tardar Sauce, and it was a star client of Rashish, a cat network promoter and Hollywood agent. Natural smelly face attracts people’s attention. Its owner has gained as much as 60 million pounds through book publishing and beverage promotion, and even has a dedicated manager to take care of its “business”.
Grumpy cats promote Chronicle Books’ upcoming Unhappy Guide to Unhappy Cats at BookExpo America. On December 7, 2014, the value of “Unhappy Cat” now reached 64 million pounds (about 600 million yuan), surpassing many Hollywood movie stars. Unhappy cats have become the source of inspiration for artists. Unhappy headshots have even been printed into mugs, T-shirts, and even a “birthday unhappy card” for unhappy cats, which has fully exerted the ultimate gold-absorbing skill of lucky cats. It is estimated that there are at least six figures. It can be seen that cats don’t have to be cute to have a selling point, and there are many people who like to look funny and smelly.
