Controversy Project
The Spring Festival is approaching, and not long ago at Shanghai Pudong Airport, passengers are worried about not being able to get an online car-hailing car.
Ask you how much sorrow you can have, just like the Huangpu River flowing eastward.
This sorrow stems from a paper ban. On January 29, the Shanghai Municipal Road Transport Administration issued the "Notice on Prohibiting the Operation of Online Car-hailing at Pudong Airport", the first of which mentions:"It is strictly forbidden for online ride-hailing platforms and online ride-hailing aggregator platforms to publish ride-hailing information that starts in the Pudong Airport area and the border roads involved. ”
However, while mainstream ride-hailing platforms such as Didi Chuxing, AutoNavi Map, and Meituan Taxi have "failed", a platform called "Airport Travel" is not affected by the ban and can still take orders in the Pudong Airport area.
In the early morning of February 4, the "ban" on online car-hailing at Shanghai Pudong Airport, which had been implemented for just 6 days, was stopped. Shanghai issued a disclosureAccording to the suggestions of the general public passengers, the Shanghai Municipal Transportation Commission decided to resume the operation of online car-hailing services in the Pudong Airport area。On the same day, netizens found that the "Airport Travel" store in the airport was not open for business. Online car-hailing was banned, and "airport travel" monopolized operation; The resumption of online car-hailing, and the complete mute of "airport travel" - what the hell is hidden behind this? Zheng Xiuli, the boss of "Airport Travel", which one is singing? Why is the whole network looking for Zheng Xiuli?
Is "Airport Travel" an online car-hailing?
In the 6 days when online car-hailing was banned from taking orders, is it online car-hailing that can still operate normally at Pudong Airport? According to the data, Shanghai Airport does not have an online car-hailing business license, and "Airport Travel" is not engaged in online car-hailing business. According to the customer service of "Airport Travel", they are engaged in "high-end business transfers".
According to reports, the company of "Airport Travel" controlled by "Zheng Xiuli" - Airport (Shanghai) Automobile Service *** has set up branches in Beijing and Chengdu in January this year, covering the three major cities with two international airports in China. In addition, between November 28, 2023 and December 8, 2023, "Zheng Xiuli" also set up car rental services in five cities: Chongqing, Guangzhou, Wuhan, Hangzhou, and Guiyang***In just a few months, is it just a coincidence that "Zheng Xiuli" has so intensively deployed taxi companies in major airports and first- and second-tier cities, and it coincides with the policy of Pudong Airport to ban online car-hailing, making the company behind "Zheng Xiuli" a vested interest? At the beginning of the ban on online ride-hailing at Pudong Airport, people were worried that other airports across the country would follow suit and ban ride-hailing. As it turned out, such fears were not unfounded. From the rapid layout of "Zheng Xiuli", it can be seen that it is menacing and unyielding, if Shanghai does not resume online car-hailing, this person will definitely make a lot of money.
The story of the magic capital is sometimes difficult to read, why did Shanghai give Zheng Xiuli the monopoly rights?
Shanghai's "Notice on Prohibiting Online Car-hailing from Operating at Pudong Airport" picked up tens of millions of online car-hailing cars under the horse, but allowed "airport travel" alone. If there is no benefit behind this, I don't believe it. Netizens questioned one after anotherWhy did Shanghai give Zheng Xiuli the right to monopolize it? Netizens couldn't help but think of the "Zhang Hezi incident". During the mask period, Zhang Hezi established a nucleic acid company in the shortest possible time, won the nucleic acid testing business in many places, made a fortune, and even if there was nucleic acid fraud, it was easy to pass the test. Later, Zhang Hezi entered the prefabricated food industry and once again won the prefabricated food business in many places. It's way ahead. What is the origin of that Zhang Hezi? It is still a mystery, and now there is another "Zheng Xiuli", who intends to take orders at major airports in the form of monopoly operation, and win the online car-hailing business of many city airports in a very short period of time. If "Zheng Xiuli" is successfully operated, business will inevitably prosper and financial resources will be rolling. The majority of passengers have to be forced to take the best "airport travel", and more online car-hailing drivers can only sigh. Rent-seeking through monopoly power, competing for profits with the people, and pretending to be too lazy to pretend, isn't this too ugly! Netizens are skeptical:Who is "Zheng Xiuli" of "Airport Travel"? Could it be that the son returned to his hometown to start a business?
Just six days later, Pudong Airport withdrew a ban on ride-hailing operations. Some people believe that this is a manifestation of the fact that the relevant departments in Shanghai are aware of their mistakes and correct them. In fact, in the final analysis, this is another victory for the overseer.
If the volume of ** is not so loud, will this online car-hailing battle at Pudong Airport be just the beginning?
For a long time, the contradiction between online car-hailing and taxis has been a long-standing one, and people originally thought that the ban on online car-hailing at Pudong Airport was due to the relevant departments pulling the wrong frame and interfering with market competition. The so-called squeezing the interests of taxi drivers and saturating the market share of online car-hailing are just a fig leaf to fool the public. After "Zheng Xiuli" was doxxed, people were even more suspiciousThis is a conspiracy of capital and power。Some netizens ridiculed "Zheng Xiuli" as "Zheng Xiuwen's younger brother", how can Zheng Xiuwen have so much energy?
Nowadays, all kinds of speculations about "Zheng Xiuli" are flying all over the skyBehind it is "Airport Travel" and Pudong AirportIs there a chain of interests? Is it the excessive association of netizens? How long will the relevant departments of the magic capital have to hide? Do you think the public is still so easy to deceive?
