We investigate the existence of solutions for two classes of tensor variational inequality problems by utilizing the existence of solutions for optimization problems. When the tensor is not positively definite on the unbounded closed convex set, the existence of solutions of tensor variational inequality problems is obtained by using the existence of solutions of coercive optimization problems on the unbounded closed convex set, and the solution set of tensor variational inequality problems is proved to be compact by using the properties of the solution set of variational inequality problems. For the positive semidefinite tensor on the unbounded closed convex set, the tensor variational inequality problems are transformed into convex optimization problems, and several sufficient conditions are presented such that the solution sets of tensor variational inequality problems are nonempty and bounded.
