"1500 yuan for four dishes" is punished. Why is the phenomenon of "butchering" repeated in holidays?

2023-01-30

Recently, the fact that tourists were charged 1500 yuan for ordering 4 dishes at a restaurant in Beihai, Guangxi, attracted attention. The Beihai Market Supervision Bureau released the investigation and handling. After investigation, the weighing equipment of the store meets the requirements of relevant specifications, and the seafood is clearly priced; Through price comparison with many restaurants of the same grade in the city, the price of the restaurant basically conforms to the consumption price of seafood during the Spring Festival; Compared with the price of the Beihai seafood market on the same day, the price of four kinds of seafood products processed and cooked in the store is within a reasonable range. The report said that the store had problems such as paying taxi drivers rebates to attract customers, ordering dishes in a hurry without full communication with consumers, and some seafood being slightly less after cooking. Beihai Municipal Market Supervision Bureau and other relevant departments have ordered the store to stop business for rectification, make rectification within a time limit and file a case for punishment. Why is the phenomenon of "killing guests" repeatedly prohibited during holidays? According to a lawyer, on the one hand, the holiday passenger flow is high, and the demand is in short supply, so businesses take the opportunity to raise prices to make high profits. On the other hand, factors such as inadequate market supervision and light punishment have also given some businesses opportunities to take advantage of. At the same time, tourists have weak legal awareness, and rarely choose to protect their rights when their legal rights are violated. Chen Yinjiang, Deputy Secretary-General of the Consumer Rights Protection Law Research Association of the China Law Society, said that when the "killing of customers" occurred, the "difficulty of proof" of consumers was also an important reason for the frequent occurrence of this phenomenon. Expert: It is unfair competition for the restaurant to recruit customers by giving the driver rebates. According to the description of the female tourists on the short video platform, on January 24, she and her fellow tourists went to the Silver Beach in Beihai, Guangxi, and were taken to the restaurant for dinner by a taxi driver and killed. According to the tourists, the hotel served four dishes, namely fried oil snails, steamed dragon top, horseshoe, and fried expensive concubine, at a cost of 1500 yuan. At night, the Hui people realized that they were slaughtered and felt very uncomfortable. This is not the first time such problems have occurred in this hotel. According to media reports, since 2021, in the comment areas of many living platforms, tourists have reported being killed after being pulled to the hotel by local taxi drivers. Some tourists questioned that it was their joint driver who killed the tourists, and said that "when seeing the boss's mobile phone, every table of guests had written the driver's license number that brought the guests". Chen Yinjiang said that businesses should win the trust of consumers by virtue of product quality. The restaurant involved is suspected of violating the right to know and choose for consumers by offering rebates to drivers; For operators in the same industry, it also infringes on their economic interests, disrupts the normal market operation order, and belongs to unfair competition. Article 7 of the Anti-unfair Competition Law of the People's Republic of China stipulates that an operator shall not use property or other means to bribe the following units or individuals to seek trading opportunities or competitive advantages: (1) the staff of the opposite party; (2) Units or individuals entrusted by the counterparty to handle relevant affairs; (3) Units or individuals that use their power or influence to influence transactions. Fu Jian, director of Henan Zejin Law Firm, believes that operators and consumers should follow the principles of voluntariness, equality, fairness, honesty and credibility when conducting transactions. Consumers have the right to choose their own goods and know the true situation of the goods they buy. Businesses are in a hurry without sufficient communication with consumers
