Actually, the commission Li Xiang was taking was on the low side.
The commission for selling coffee via livestream typically ranges from 20% to 40%. The specific rate can vary depending on the brand, the streamer's influence, and the terms of the partnership. For instance, domestic brands usually require a commission starting at 40%, whereas foreign brands start at 20%.
This is because domestic products have lower costs and, naturally, are relatively cheaper.
Li Xiang was just starting out, and he wouldn't act like some of those unscrupulous streamers who take a 70% or 80% commission. There was one infamous case of a streamer selling a 79-yuan eyebrow pencil and making 63 yuan on each sale, who then had the audacity to complain that her viewers weren't working hard enough and needed to reflect on why their salaries hadn't increased for years.
