China's booming group livestreaming industry, known as tuanbo, is attracting young performers who compete for eyeballs and rankings. These performances, featuring dancing, singing, and interactive elements, are driven by virtual gifts and a leaderboard system.
The industry, which has seen rapid growth from 15 billion yuan in 2025 to 40 billion yuan this year, is a blend of traditional idol shows and the booming livestreaming economy. Performers can earn anywhere from a few thousand yuan to over 100,000 yuan per month, with virtual gifts playing a significant role in boosting their rankings and visibility. The industry, however, is not without its challenges.
