We have ridden in bike-sharing, driven a shared car and used a shared charging treasure, but have you ever heard of a "shared boyfriend"? Yesterday afternoon, the reporter saw in a shopping mall in Haikou that six "shared boyfriends" with an average height of 1.8 meters and suits appeared in the shared boxes of six people. The reporter learned from the activists that the activity only lasted for two days, that is, on 24th and 25th, single women can take part in grabbing "boyfriend" by scanning the code to pay 1 yuan, and the person who pays the code first can take away the "boyfriend" and enjoy one-hour service.
So where did these "shared boyfriends" come from? What services can they provide? The reporter interviewed this. Trainee reporter Cao Baoxin text/map
"Boyfriend" tells
Return to the shared box after 1 hour and let other customers scan the code.
In the chaos, the reporter first scanned the code to pay 1 yuan, and successfully took away the "shared boyfriend" Xiaozhuang. Xiaozhuang told reporters that each customer only has the right to use the service for one hour. "When the time comes, we have to return to the shared box to let other customers scan the code, and customers can also choose to end the service in advance."
According to Xiaozhuang, the "shared boyfriends" of this activity are all mall executives. "There were 7 executives yesterday and 6 today, but they are basically the same group." Xiaozhuang said that although the nominal activity time is from 15: 00 to 21: 00, they will also make some adjustments according to the actual situation, and there will be time for eating and rest in the middle.
One day, I accompanied four female customers to the mall, and also took a photo show "Love".
Xiaozhuang said that on the 24th, he accompanied four customers. "Basically, they are girls in their early twenties, mainly accompanying them to go shopping, carrying bags and taking photos. Our activities can only be in the shopping mall." He admitted that because he was shy, he was embarrassed to be photographed in the box at first, but later he got used to it. "Just chat with friends and go shopping, don’t take it as a serious matter."
Xiaozhuang said that he had met a girl who asked for a photo show "love". "This is also within the scope of our service, but we will try to avoid physical contact. This is the regulation of the activity." Although there will be a break in the middle, Xiaozhuang said, "It is actually very tiring to toss from afternoon to evening. Although it is 9 pm, if the customer’s service time is not over, we have to continue to accompany it."
Reporter visits
Scan the code to pay 1 yuan to take away the "shared boyfriend" and accompany you shopping for 1 hour.
At about 14 o’clock yesterday, the reporter saw in the mall that there were six tall shared boxes in the center of the lobby on the first floor of the mall. One side of the box was transparent, and the words "rent me" and "share my boyfriend" were marked on it. There are also rules for sharing boyfriends, "which can provide intimate services such as carrying bags, choosing clothes and taking photos; You can take your boyfriend away by scanning the code to pay 1 yuan without a deposit; Shared boyfriends can only be used once, and the use time is 1 hour. You can only stroll in the mall. "
At 14: 40 on the same day, the shared boyfriend has not yet arrived. The reporter saw that many customers had poured into the shopping mall one after another, and many people were attracted by this activity and stopped in front of the empty sharing box to talk about it.
According to the staff of a shop in the mall, the activity was held on December 24th, lasting for two days, from 15: 00 to 21: 00. "Now there are so many people before the activity started, and it was very lively yesterday, mainly because ‘ Boyfriend ’ Tall and handsome, everyone is scrambling to scan the code, and you want to scan it ‘ Boyfriend ’ It depends on luck. " The staff member said.
Six tall and handsome men appeared, and the girls rushed to take pictures.
"I heard from a friend yesterday that there is ‘ Share a boyfriend ’ So come and see what’s going on. It is said that you can accompany shopping and take photos. Today’s Christmas, I just pretend to be Xiu Xiu’s love in a circle of friends. " A girl smiled and said that she was going to try sweeping a "boyfriend".
Just then, there were more and more people in the shopping mall. At this time, the broadcast sounded, and the event organizer announced that "the sharing boyfriend will arrive at the scene in five minutes" and reminded that "our event is only for single women, and girls should be a little reserved, abide by the rules of the event, and don’t scare ‘ Boyfriend ’ Children. "
At about 15: 30, six tall and handsome young men, dressed in black suits and ties, came to the event site one after another and walked into their shared boxes under the organization of the event manager. It is understood that the six "shared boyfriends" are between the ages of 19 and 26, and they are all single.
In less than five minutes, all six "shared boyfriends" are "taken"
Before the event, citizens have 5 minutes to take photos. The reporter saw that many women raised their mobile phones to take photos. A woman in a red sweater also took the opportunity to take photos with one of the "shared boyfriends". Another older woman said to a "shared boyfriend", "I am ready to sweep you away."
When the sound of code scanning countdown came from the radio, many women had raised their mobile phones to aim at the QR code. Less than five minutes after the countdown, six "shared boyfriends" were all brought out, and many girls who didn’t sweep them lamented again and again, "Why are you so fast? You can’t even slow your hand for a second, you can only wait another hour … …”
Active party
"Shared boyfriends" are all mall executives, and their height and face value have to pass.
The reporter learned at the scene that most women expressed their approval and satisfaction with the service of "sharing boyfriends". So how are these popular "shared boyfriends" selected? Shi Guoshan, manager of the planning department of the shopping mall, told the reporter, "Our requirements are actually very simple, mainly depending on the height and face value. The height must be about 1.8 meters. ‘ Hardware facilities ’ Must meet the standard. "
Shi Guoshan introduced that the "shared boyfriends" of this activity are all mall executives. "In fact, we have also recruited for the society, but few people have signed up. Secondly, for security reasons, we finally decided to use insiders, and our supervisors are very high in value and can get a shot."
Error in customer payment amount can be refunded.
In response to the one-hour use right of "shared boyfriend", Shi Guoshan said that customers can enjoy the service of "shared boyfriend" through WeChat timing. After the service time is over, "shared boyfriend" will return to the sharing box so that the next batch of customers can scan the code and use it. As for why the time is limited to one hour, Shi Guoshan explained, first of all, their resources are limited, there are not so many people, only 10 executives who can provide services. "The second is to keep customers fresh, because it doesn’t make much sense after a long time. We have also considered providing one-day service before, but this will be monotonous, and serving for one hour is a more feasible solution. "
Regarding scanning code to pay for "boyfriend", Shi Guoshan said that the first customer who pays has the priority to enjoy the right to use "shared boyfriend", which is based on the time displayed on the payment interface, and the customers who follow will not be refunded if they scan the code again; If two customers scan the code and pay at the same time, the "boyfriend" will choose which customer to accompany in turn.
"In addition, if there is a mistake in the payment process or the payment amount is wrong, the customer can promptly report it to the mall staff, and will refund it as long as it is in line with common sense." Shi Guoshan said.
