The reporter contacted Mr. Wang by telephone. He said he was a businessman in Jingxian County, Xuancheng City, Anhui Province. In March this year, he learned from a well-known population that the cost of traveling to Hong Kong was only 600 yuan, so he and his colleagues and friends decided to organize a group trip to Hong Kong. He said, "I didn't know at first, but I didn't know until I arrived in Hong Kong that I was participating in a" shopping group ". After arriving in Hong Kong, each person also paid the tour guide 1000 yuan, including the driver's tip and other expenses.
After arriving in Hong Kong, 53 people were divided into two groups: men and women. Mr. Wang's men's group consists of 24 people, and their tour guide calls himself "Jane". "The first morning, she led us to the Ocean Park, and her attitude was still good." Mr. Wang recalled that at the shopping point, her attitude changed 180 degrees. He said that Jane took them to famous shops of all kinds of clothes, handbags and electronic products, and the next day she took them to a hypermarket. "Jewelry is mainly sold there." In the process, Jane kept asking them to buy jewelry and threatened that "you can't leave the jewelry store without buying it".
In desperation, Mr. Wang had to buy some jewelry, a watch, a razor and a video camera, which cost more than 7000 yuan. However, his men's team didn't have much demand for jewelry, so only 24 people spent more than 1000, while the other women's team spent more than1000 in the jewelry store.
Mr. Wang said that in fact, Jane had given a hard "order" before leading them into the jewelry store. "She asked each of us to buy jewelry. If we don't buy it, we won't go out." Even after Mr. Wang and others stepped into the jewelry store, the door of the store closed immediately. "Everyone is rebellious. The more we are forced to buy, the less we will buy! " So, after visiting the jewelry store, Jane went "crazy" on the tour bus.
According to a media report in Anhui, during the two days in Hong Kong, the 53-member tour group spent more than 400,000 yuan, most of which was used to buy gold and jewelry.
Mr. Wang went on to say that he and his colleagues were silent in the face of Jane's harsh words that day. "After all, I came out to play, not to quarrel", but in a rage, I decided to shoot two videos of Jane being abused on the tourist bus and upload one of them to the Internet at the end of March.
"I didn't expect this video to cause such a big response. At that time, I just hoped to use this video to warn mainland tourists not to be deceived! " Mr. Wang said that in his eyes, Hong Kong is a "shopping paradise", but this trip to Hong Kong did not leave him a good impression. "We didn't come to Hong Kong for petty gain. We're here to shop, but you can't force us to shop. The customer is God! Insulting us is insulting our personality. "
Wang expressed the hope that the tourism industry in Hong Kong would take this matter seriously and stop abusing tourists and forcing them to shop. He said there was another video at home that was not online.
Jin Kai, the reception agency, said that the female tour guide Azhen is a freelance tour guide hired by the company. He thinks Kincaid's attitude is not sincere enough. "This is not a tour guide. This is a problem for travel agencies and tourism in Hong Kong. "
