Does the tour group to Hong Kong have compulsory shopping?

Hong Kong and black tour guides are like robbers, while mainland tourists are brave enough to defend themselves.

During the "Eleventh" holiday, Hong Kong black tour guides forced mainland tourists to buy jewelry at a minimum of 9,000 yuan each. Mainland tourists have the courage to fight and defend their legitimate rights and interests.

On June 4th, 2065438+0410, Mr. Xue, a mainland tourist, took part in a three-night and four-day tour group to Hong Kong and Macao. In the jewelry store of Hong Kong Kowloon Bay International Convention and Exhibition Center, a male tour guide (hereinafter referred to as Zhou Biao) forced 24 members of the group to buy jewelry at the standard of 9,000 yuan, and threatened to "leave the group immediately if it failed to meet the standard". After that, a Tianjin tourist asked if he could buy less if he could not buy 9,000 yuan. Zhou Wei replied, "No." After getting off the bus, Mr. Zhou called everyone into the jewelry store. Mr. Xue stepped forward and asked, "You can go in and support your work, but you don't have to shop." Zhou Wei replied, "Everyone must go shopping. Let me talk about it first. " Mr Xue asked: "Hong Kong is a society ruled by law. Is it legal for you to do this? " Zhou Wei didn't answer directly, but he called everyone into the shop. At the moment, except for Mr. Xue and several tourists from Beijing, tourists from Xining, Tianjin, Shanghai and Shaanxi did not move, and nine tourists from Fujian did not move. Seeing this, Zhou Wei was mad and shouted at Mr. Xue, "Do you think that you are particularly awesome because you are from Beijing ... I tell you, Beijingers are nothing in the eyes of Hong Kong people." Mr. Xue ignored it and took out his mobile phone to take pictures of it. At this time, Zhou Youdao jumped in front of Mr. Chu and shouted, "You took pictures without permission, which violated my privacy." And there is a tendency to use violence. Mr Xue is right: "Hong Kong is a society ruled by law. I didn't infringe on your privacy and portrait right by taking photos here. If you dare to hit someone, we'll call the police immediately. I will complain to the Hong Kong Tourism Board about your's behavior in the future. " After listening, Zhou Biao stood by, crossing his waist, panting. A few minutes after the confrontation between the two sides, another male tour guide named Luo (hereinafter referred to as Luo Dao) shouted to everyone: "Please support our work. Everyone went in. We have an agreement with the jewelry store to count the heads. " Another Beijinger approached him and said, "It's not that we don't support your work. What are we doing here in Hong Kong? We must go shopping, but you can't force us to ask for minimum standards. This is not right. " After Luo Dao promised, he greeted everyone into the store. In the end, nine tourists from Fujian did not move, but everyone else went in.

After entering the store, two tourists in Shanghai bought thousands of dollars of jewelry, but Zhou Youdao and Luo Daodao were still too few, so let them buy thousands more; Three tourists from Shaanxi have bought 2000 yuan of jewelry. Luo Dao shouted at them in a threatening tone: "You three have 2000 yuan, which can't meet our requirements at all. You must buy another 2000 yuan, otherwise, you don't want to go back "; When two Xiamen tourists temporarily left the gathering place of nine people in Xiamen, Zhou Youdao and Luo Daodao followed them again and forced each of them to give 200 yuan RMB. As soon as he saw Mr. Xue, Director Zhou scolded him: "You think you are awesome now ... your mother ... you Beijingers are nothing in the eyes of Hong Kong people ... You are a total hooligan and said," Let's find a place to talk alone. "Mr. Xue ignores it and resolutely does not shop.

In the three hours after entering the store, Zhou Wei and Luo Dao threatened to force nine Fujian tourists into the store. Nine tourists from Fujian United as one, never letting go and never entering the store again.

After returning to Beijing, Mr. Xue complained to the Hong Kong Tourism Board, which accepted the case in June 65438+1October 65438+March.

The following are some suggestions for mainland tourists to visit Hong Kong:

1. Never abandon and eliminate the concept and behavior of "just bear it on someone else's turf", let nature take its course, or "wait until you get home". In a sense, Hong Kong people themselves look down on mainlanders. When mainlanders come to Hong Kong, they swallow their grievances and look down on you. It is this kind of thinking of some mainlanders that makes individual Hong Kong people unscrupulous and fearless. Wait until you get home. What can you do when you go home? At most, you can post on Baidu and tell your friends and relatives about it. Just comforting myself mentally. In fact, you are the one who suffers, the one who is humiliated and the one who is wronged. "9000 yuan, you don't want to spend it, you don't want to buy jewelry, but you put up with it", which is called "being raped and robbed". Therefore, mainlanders must establish and practice the consciousness and behavior of safeguarding their legitimate rights and dignity, and be brave in self-defense and struggle when they are coerced and "raped".

2. Be sure to prepare the telephone number of Hong Kong and the telephone number of Tourism Bureau accurately before going. In addition, employment and photographic equipment and batteries are also ready. You can use a mobile phone, but you must fully charge the battery and mobile power supply.

3. Go with at least 65,438+0 relatives or close friends. When something happens, 1 people will defend their rights in front of them, 1 people will collect evidence (recording and taking photos). Note: when you arrive at the shopping place or the tour guide tells you about the shopping, record it all;

4. If there is a physical conflict or violent incident, 1 person must call the police in a relatively invisible place at the scene at the first time. Be sure to find out what house number or landmark it is before.

The tour guide said some threatening words, such as: "Call the police station, and the police will come and take you away right away"; Because of your' trouble', it affects the later trip or other tourists. " Don't believe it. How to deal with it-play the fool and be fully distracted.

6. It is best not to take part in sightseeing and shopping trips to Hong Kong. If you want to go to Hong Kong, you must take part in sightseeing. If not, fly away happily and return with humiliation.

The above can be said to be active defensive measures, and there are several passive defensive methods:

1. Tell the tour guide directly that he has no money or card, borrow some from him first, and then return it to him when he gets home. Under normal circumstances, the tour guide can't help but scold you a few words at most, just don't talk back. This way can be called forbearance;

2. Get off the bus or pretend to fall on the slippery road, and let another person 1 help you to the hospital. The guide has to let you go. Stroll around the community, it's almost time, and then go back to the door of the shopping point or the meeting place. When the tour guide asked you, you just said it was a long walk, nothing. Well, the medical expenses in Hong Kong are so expensive that you don't need to see them. At this point, the cunning tour guide may see that it doesn't matter, and at most give you a few words of training. This way can be called-diving;

3. Sudden stomach pain or heart disease recurrence, pretending or really taking medicine, unable to move and needing rest, and 1-2 people stay to take care of you. The guide can't help it. After three hours, say that you are much better and can go. Then get in the car and leave. This way is called-pretending to be sick;

4. Scream or shout when you enter the store, and lose valuables such as ID cards or Hong Kong and Macao passes. You need to find or call the police at once, and pretend to be in a hurry. The guide can only let you look for it first. You turn around and leave, then bypass the annex, see that time is running out, and then return to the assembly point. Just tell the tour guide to look for it. This way is called-so lost.
