Overview of the event
On February 16, 2024, a ** of "tourists were driven out of the car without buying 50,000 bracelets" sparked heated discussions on the Internet. **In the middle, when Ms. Tian's family of five was traveling in Yunnan, they were forced to get off the tour bus by the tour guide because they did not buy a 50,000 yuan bracelet in the jade store recommended by the tour guide.
According to Ms. Tian's description, the tour group was taken to a jade shop by the tour guide in the afternoon of the second day, and the tour guide said that the jade in the store was "very affordable, and if you miss this opportunity, you won't have it." With the strong recommendation of the tour guide, many tourists bought a lot of jade. Ms. Tian thought that the jade ** was inflated, refused to buy it, and was finally kicked off the bus by the tour guide on the grounds of "affecting other tourists".

At the same time, the incident also exposed some chaos in the tourism industry, such as "shopping spots" rebates, "sky-high tourism goods" and other problems.
Reflection on the event
From a legal point of view, the tour guide's act of forcing tourists to make purchases is a breach of contract and violates the tourist's contractual rights.
