In a previous interview with Bizcommunity, Luckin said that while advertising is a fun way to earn a living, it is hard.

“But it is relevant, and it is not going to go away anytime soon. We contribute an enormous amount to the economy, but I don’t think we get the respect. It’s not anyone’s fault, we need to promote space, aka the industry, for people to want to go there.”
