Just because everyone is created equal doesn't mean everyone is treated equally. Recently, an incident in a company in Shenzhen once again reminded us that on some occasions, it is difficult for Chinese people, whether rich or poor, to get the same treatment as foreigners.

According to netizens, one day she went to a company in Shenzhen to handle business. At first everything was fine, waiting in line like other customers. Unexpectedly, when it was about to be her turn, a group of Japanese guests suddenly came outside. The company deliberately arranged personnel to send them to the sofa area for priority, completely ignoring the Chinese customers who had been queuing for a long time.
This really aroused the dissatisfaction of the Chinese people present. The netizen raised the camera to shoot this unfair scene on the spot and wanted to post it on the Internet to expose it. Unbeknownst to her, the company's security guards stepped forward to stop her, categorically took away her mobile phone, and threatened to confiscate her if she did not obey. In the face of such a tough and even high-minded attitude, she had no choice but to give up.
It's better to see than to hear. The order has been broken, the reasonable expectations of the Chinese people have been disappointed, and what is even more regrettable is that this has become commonplace on some occasions. Even if the mainland's economy is becoming more and more developed, its position on the international stage will waver, and it will inevitably be limited in the daily life of our people.
With the deepening of reform and opening up, the development momentum of foreign-funded enterprises in China has continued. However, many companies are still stuck in the old model, treating Chinese people and foreign guests completely differently. Over time, it has cultivated a mindset of "foreign guests first", ignoring the fair treatment that Chinese customers should also enjoy. This runs counter to the concept of "one country, two systems".
At the same time, the practices of some security workers are also worrying. Forcibly depriving netizens of the right to express their personal opinions is an extreme move. Is there no system of supervision and restraint within the company? Or is it true that some people have long been accustomed to rent-seeking lifestyles? This will directly affect the image of the company in the public.
Some netizens said: Do Chinese have more respect for foreigners in their hearts???
Some netizens also pointed out: This is not a security problem, it is a problem of China Mobile, does security have so much power?
Some netizens said: Strictly investigate and crack down on personnel and security guards. Everyone in Chinese knows about queues.
Of course, foreign-owned enterprises should not be blamed blanketly. The benefits of seeking more business opportunities and cooperation to bring Chinese employment and technology exchange are obvious. However, if enterprises want to develop in China for a long time, they should pay attention to localization and respect the basic rights and interests of Chinese people. Otherwise, it will be difficult to escape the accusation of "standing up for foreign companies", and it will be difficult to justify itself.
We should reflect on whether as Chinese people should cultivate a stronger sense of self-esteem and a sense of questioning, and we should not always get used to passive acceptance. Only by standing up straight and striving for equal status can we speak on the international stage. Only by promoting the common progress of society can we ensure that every citizen can participate equally in prosperity and development. This requires the attention of each and every one of us.
