On April 5, in Shiyan, Hubei, a woman posted a video complaining about the various paid services of the funeral home, bluntly saying that she was holding her father's urn and a waiter came to sell it, bluntly saying that "I can't afford to die".
In the video, the woman said that she was holding her father's urn when she was sad, and suddenly a waiter with a credit card machine walked up to her.
At first, the woman didn't know what was going on, but when the waiter spoke, she realized that the waiter was here to sell.
Four ingots are 230 yuan, a pair of golden boys and girls are 180 yuan, and the scarf on the urn is 100 yuan......
Not only that, the waiter also "intimately" reminded that if you don't buy ingots, it will affect the financial luck of your family in the future.
For the waiter's promotion, the woman was stunned for a moment, thinking it was incredible, how could someone come to sell when the family was sad, but looking at her father's urn, the woman still chose to buy it.
But even though I bought it, every time I think about it, the woman thinks it's a moral kidnapping.
Not only was she sold by the waiter, but the woman said that in the process of holding her father's funeral, she really experienced what it meant to "can't live, can't afford to die".
The woman said that throughout the funeral, funeral home charges abounded.
The cheapest package for decorating a mourning hall is more than 10,000 yuan.
In addition to the package, the funeral home has a shared wreath, one is 180 yuan, if you don't want to use a shared wreath, the funeral home also has flowers, which is 688 yuan, and the sound of an electronic firecracker is 100 yuan......
These are just some of the funeral home fees that the woman said, 180 yuan for a wreath, 100 yuan for an electronic firecracker, and 688 yuan for flowers, which is not the same as picking up money.
Some people may say that you don't have to buy it if you think it's expensive, you don't have to spend this money.
In fact, when you are in that environment, you will unconsciously choose to buy, after all, children don't want their parents to be so lonely when they leave.
Her father's funeral made the woman directly sigh "I can't afford to die", she was very confused, where would she go if she didn't go to the funeral home in the future.
The woman's confused estimate is also what everyone is worried about, in fact, this is nothing, some funeral homes do not let themselves bring urns, and will even sell them to the deceased's family at a tenfold price, Baotou City Funeral Home is not exposed to this situation.
Some funeral parlors will divide the cremation oven into high and low grades, I really don't understand that the cremation oven should be divided into three, six, nine and so on, is the cremation oven different? Or the high-end cremation oven does not hurt when cremated.
Regarding the situation of the woman's complaint, the staff of the Shiyan City Funeral Service Center responded that they would report it to their superiors.
In fact, the woman's situation has also been experienced by many people, so it has resonated with netizens.
Some netizens bluntly said that sometimes they really feel that some industries are shameless to the extreme.
Some netizens also said that your life and death are just a single business in their eyes.
Some netizens told their personal experiences: Grandpa passed away last year, and the funeral was basically done by me, and I spent more than 20,000 yuan on all seven, seven, eight, and eight, although it was grandpa's money, but I felt very uncomfortable, and he saved it.
Some netizens feel that this kind of sales promotion is the most shameless, a wave of moral kidnapping when people are most vulnerable, you say that if you don't buy it, some people around you will say that you are not filial, and you are not even willing to spend this amount of money on your relatives.
The basic situation now is that many old people are desperately trying to save money when they are alive, just so that they will not run out of money and cannot afford to die when they die.
It is no wonder that some experts are angry at this kind of behavior, feeling that some industries really have no lower limit, and the funeral industry is originally a subordinate unit of civil affairs, so how can it use feudal superstition to sell funeral goods and morally kidnap the children of the deceased? Where is the conscience?
What do you think about this?
