20、ury items.As Chinas economy develops quickly, the market opportunities for all sorts of luxury goods and services are increasing. Luxury consumption in China now extends ways beyond well-known car, clothing and jewelry brands. For example, the luxury jet market in China is the fastest-growing in the

But more importantly, Chinas luxury jet market growth represents a major development in

22、 the private consumption of luxury items.Chinas high-quality red wine market also provides evidence of the growth in private consumption of luxury goods.
