Yangtze River ** Wuhan Client, January 11 (reporter Deng Xiaolong, intern Xu Yahan) scanned the code to borrow a shared umbrella, and when it was returned, it was found that a fee of 24 yuan was deducted, which was higher than the cost of buying two new umbrellas. Recently, a septuagenarian left a message to "complain" that he had encountered an "umbrella assassin". It is reported that the shared umbrella has a similar "borrow and return" function similar to the shared charging treasure, and the cost of finding the nearest return point is generally not too high.

The old man who left the message reported that she went to a hospital some time ago to see a doctor, and when she left, it was raining, so she scanned the code and rented a shared umbrella on the "drifting umbrella" equipment equipped in the hospital. In the afternoon of the same day, she went to return the umbrella and was deducted 24 yuan, which made the old man a little surprised: "I didn't pay attention to the charging standard at that time, who knew that borrowing an umbrella was so expensive, and it was only 10 yuan to buy a new one." ”
The reporter searched for "drifting umbrella" in Alipay, and its applet map showed that the hospital that the old man said in the message did have a borrowing and returning point. On the 9th, the reporter navigated to the hospital according to the applet, but did not find the shared umbrella borrowed and returned. Hospital staff said it was unclear if there were shared umbrellas in the hospital.
After that, according to the navigation guide in the applet, the reporter found a "drifting umbrella" device in a hotel on Jianghan Road. The device is obviously covered with dust, and the billing rules are not indicated, only showing "Only support Alipay scanning code use". After scanning the code, you can see on the Mini Program that its billing rule is "4 yuan per hour (the part less than the hour is calculated by the hour); 24 yuan cap within 24 hours".
In the "Drifting Umbrella" applet, users will display devices with close proximity in different locations, which can realize "borrowing and returning at any time" similar to shared power banks. In other words, if it is used as an emergency and you find the nearest return point before arriving at your destination, the cost will generally not be too high.
What do you think about shared umbrellas? The reporter randomly interviewed more than 10 citizens, most of whom said that "I don't feel useful", and some citizens said "I haven't seen it". One citizen said that he had seen similar equipment in some places, but had never borrowed it: "If it really rains suddenly, buy an umbrella nearby if you are far away, and simply go home in the rain if you are close." A transparent umbrella for 10 yuan can be used several times, and there is no need to spend money to 'rent'. ”
The reporter noticed that the billing rules of the "drifting umbrella" show that a deposit of 59 yuan is required to borrow the umbrella, and the sesame credit score can be used without a deposit if it reaches a certain standard. In this regard, the interviewed citizens all said that it is not cost-effective to pay a deposit of dozens of yuan to borrow an umbrella. Ms. Liu, a "white-collar worker" who works in Hankou, said: "For example, the cost of a shared power bank is generally much lower than the price of buying a new one, but the shared umbrella is more chicken, and it is cost-effective to buy a new one." ”
