Takeaway riders earn more than 10,000 a day, and the hidden feelings behind them are worth paying attention to

Qianjiang Evening News news, recently, online pictures show that a SF city knight actual income of 10067.75 yuan on April 9 triggered a hot discussion on the whole network. SF's response to reporters is true. It is understood that the knight's income of 10,000 yuan includes 7856 yuan of user tips (a total of 60 orders, each single tip of 131 yuan), and each single does not include tips of 36.9 yuan.

Some netizens said that during the epidemic period, people took risks to deliver; some netizens said that if they did not increase the amount of tips, they would not accept orders, would this promote bad customs? In this regard, commentators of the Qianjiang Evening News and Hourly News expressed their views.

Commentator Chen Jiang said that this special day contains a lot of bitterness and helplessness behind it. Due to the epidemic in Shanghai, shanghai has entered a global static management model, and citizens's "staying at home, staying at home" has become a state of daily life, and online shopping will inevitably become the most important way of consumption. From daily necessities to fruits and vegetables, even the demand for fresh products has shifted to online, and all this has to be delivered to the hands of users, and ultimately it must be implemented to the "human" level of the rider.

Demand spawns markets, special markets give birth to special scenes, and riders earn a month's worth a day. This is the hard work of the rider by his own efforts, and others have nothing good to see. You can't just see others earn more, but you can't see the hard work and sweat of others.

Commentator Gao Lu said that although the rider's daily income is over 10,000, it may not be excusable, and such a high tip amount is still difficult to understand. Judging from the response of SF Tongcheng, it mainly comes from the tipping of enterprise users and does not violate the rules previously formulated.

Specific to whether these orders are legal and reasonable, it depends on whether the rules are transparent, whether the enterprises concerned are informed in advance, whether the rewarding enterprises are willing, whether there are circumstances of forced buying and selling, and whether there is a significant increase in distribution costs.

Doubts are not difficult to understand, it is nothing more than worrying about sitting on the starting price, worrying about companies abusing their market position, and worrying about deviating from the most basic principle of value for money. Listening to everyone's voices is helpful for companies to examine their own behavior.

New routines are emerging

Be wary of the disguised "minimum consumption" of the catering industry

According to the Procuratorial Daily, "designated consumption of high-priced dishes", "charging high tea seat fees", "landscape bits should be charged extra money"... In recent years, with the improvement of relevant laws and regulations and the improvement of consumer awareness of rights protection, the old routines such as setting minimum consumption in the catering industry have gradually become rare, but new charging routines have begun to emerge.

Recently, when Ms. Li from Wuhan, Hubei Province, ordered food in a private room in a restaurant, she asked whether there were any minimum consumption and service charges for private rooms. Staff said there was no minimum spending limit, but they had to order a restaurant's signature dish, ranging from 600 to 1,000 yuan. In addition, the reporter also saw a number of consumers on the Internet platform mentioned that catering units with a strong sense of atmosphere such as coffee shops will set different minimum consumption limits according to different spaces.

"Minimum consumption" seems to have become the "unspoken rule" of consumption in the catering industry, which has been criticized by consumers.

In September 2014, the Ministry of Commerce and the National Development and Reform Commission promulgated the Administrative Measures for the Operation of the Catering Industry (for Trial Implementation), article 12 of which stipulates that catering operators are prohibited from setting minimum consumption. At the same time, the Consumer Protection Law also includes such acts in the scope of supervision. Some local regulations have also made adjustments to this, such as the Decision of the Standing Committee of the People's Congress of Guangdong Province on Stopping Catering Waste, which clearly requires catering operators to clearly indicate catering service items and charging standards, and must not set a minimum consumption amount.

Therefore, no matter how the catering operator beautifies the cloak of "minimum consumption", its essence has not changed, but it is actually an illegal act that infringes on consumers' right to independent choice and fair trade. How to promote consumer fairness together? All this is considering the wisdom of catering enterprise operators, and at the same time, the government needs to introduce more policies that benefit the people and enterprises, with practical operation, so as to create a fair, reasonable and harmonious consumption environment for consumers.

Luckin's joint signature with Coconut Tree was a great success

Jimu News, on April 11, Luckin Coffee and Coconut Tree Group jointly launched a new product "Coconut Cloud Latte". In recent days, this new "net red" has been quite popular because of its packaging on social media, and the classic image of the old net red coconut tree - known by netizens as Word typography design, "earthy and tide" color matching, and the cross-border cooperation with coffee brands has triggered screen brushing.

It is understood that the joint name of Luckin Coffee and Coconut Tree Group not only made netizens shout "the soil is the ultimate tide" and "ordinary bags are the same, and the bags of coconut trees are one of the best", but also triggered a super imitation show.

Jimu News reporter saw that on various social platforms such as Xiaohongshu and Weibo, netizens competed to hold joint models, concave the classic posture of Xu Dongdong, the spokesperson of "drinking from small to large" on the coconut brand coconut juice. On the evening of the 11th, Xu Dongdong also went down on Weibo to "reproduce the classic", holding up a joint name to interact with netizens.

Because it is too hot, many netizens who have not grabbed the joint model have also sniffed on this strange CP - using the Luckin traditional logo cup sleeve to cover the coconut brand coconut juice, "homemade" joint model, can be described as self-enjoyment.

The joint name between the brand and the brand is a kind of stimulation of contemporary consumers for the visual aesthetics of the goods, and the joint name can inject new vitality into both sides of the brand, and also make the satisfaction of consumers for the purchase of high-quality joint goods become more three-dimensional, so that consumers can get the spiritual and cultural attributes of multiple brands on the same product.

It is foreseeable that in the future, the marketing method of joint branding will still be popular with major catering brands.
