In the past two years, there has been an interesting shift: projects in the community that are experimenting with new models are gradually moving from "What should we do" to "Is doing this worthwhile."

In simple terms, they are moving from the conceptual stage into a real validation phase—whether the comparable projects can create actual value, and whether the business logic makes sense. And here’s an easily overlooked point: not all brands need to follow the same approach. Some projects are suited for aggressive innovation routes, while others require a more conservative approach. The choice of path itself is already a strategic judgment.

This is not a technical issue; it’s more about the project’s understanding of its own positioning and the market.

Comments on Bankruptcy DouDou (shifting from "What to do" to "Is it worth it" topic): 1. Finally, someone has spoken out. Where did all those PPT projects go? 2. Really, now hardly anyone believes in the vision anymore; data needs to speak. 3. This shift is actually the market self-correcting—survival of the fittest. 4. The key is that many projects don't even know if they are aggressive or conservative, messing around aimlessly. 5. Well said, strategy choice itself is a competitive advantage; not everyone wants to understand that. 6. From bragging to accounting, the cycle is too long; only projects that can wait survive. 7. Got it, so those projects constantly changing tracks basically have no chance. 8. Honestly, many founders are very vague about their positioning, no wonder fundraising is so difficult. 9. Isn't it just that pseudo-demand is starting to show? The bubble will burst sooner or later. 10. Feels like this article is asking: can your business model actually make money?

That's right, over the past few years, we've really seen through what certain projects are all about. Finally, someone dares to speak frankly. Compared to those who just hype concepts all day, it's much more sincere. But to be honest, projects that can truly survive need to know their own capabilities.

Finally, someone has spoken out. After these two years, we're tired of projects that only shout slogans but don't do any work. Some teams are still hyping concepts, which is truly incredible... Actual value is the ultimate reassurance. Choosing a strategy isn't that difficult; the key is to understand what you're doing and how the market works. Different projects definitely can't be treated the same; there's a reason for both aggressive and conservative approaches. This is true strategic vision—much more meaningful than bragging about technical parameters.

Wake up, wake up, finally a project is asking itself this question --- That's right, I'm just afraid of those who keep telling stories without any real substance; once verified, they turn out to be all false propositions --- In terms of path selection, this is actually the biggest test of the team's vision. Being aggressive or not can be deadly; it all depends on whether you choose correctly --- Not all innovation needs to follow the trend aggressively; this has been overlooked for too long --- This transformation is actually a process of泡沫 (bursting of bubbles), cold but necessary --- The key is that many projects haven't even figured things out themselves and are still just making big promises

Someone finally said it. Honestly, the cost of bragging in the community is too high right now.
