Follow Xiaobian to learn the latest development of the event.

What is the cause?

According to Weibo netizens, the Chinese aunt and her son were beaten up for blocking foreigners from jumping in line when they were queuing for shopping.

This morning, many netizens told the same story on Weibo, with video as evidence.

According to netizens, on April 25, "Paris spring" department store released new models. Many people lined up at the scene and some local people jumped in line.

According to subsequent sources, it was found that Paris spring made an apology statement on its social account instagram, but it was sent out under the comment area of an article.

Huanhuan found the English French bilingual statement of "Paris spring". "We're sorry that two customers had a row this morning in the line-up for the new product launch, and we quickly took steps to keep both sides calm," the statement said. We're also learning what's going on. '

In the comment area below the statement, Chinese netizens are even more angry. Many questioned the insincerity of Paris spring's apology.

This matter continues to ferment on the Chinese Internet today.

The media also followed up & DARR;

Local time went to the scene of the incident early this morning - the Paris spring 'Balencia' counter.

Because it's too early, there are no guests

The head of the public relations department of Paris spring refused to respond to the appeal of the ring road, saying that the incident was still under investigation and required email communication, and would eventually make a formal statement.

The person in charge of the "Balencia" counter is much easier to talk about. The woman, who asked not to be named, said, "first of all, 'yesterday's incident was a small matter'. During the queuing process, it seems that someone had a conflict because of the queue jumping problem. The security guard of the shopping mall dealt with it at the first time. The way to deal with it was to pull apart the two sides of the conflict. It was absolutely not to beat Chinese guests. The people of their brands would not say anything that discriminated against or insulted Chinese people." '90% of our guests are Asian, insulting them is absolutely not in line with our business logic'.

The woman in charge said that she did not know the origin of yesterday's conflict, even where the other side of the conflict with the Chinese people was. She only knows, because there are many people in the queue, the brand requires everyone to fill in the form in advance, what you want to buy and how many. Because of the conflict, the brand immediately stopped the sales on that day. The customers who didn't have time to fill in the form were invited to leave and only sold to the customers who filled in the form. There is no case of driving out Chinese guests. 'we really don't treat Chinese guests like that'.

Huanhuan also asked the salesmen of other brand counters about the situation. A lady said that she knew that there was a conflict yesterday, but she didn't know the process. It was just that things soon subsided. How could there be journalists to interview?

Huanhuan told her that it was very hot on the Internet.

She said, yeah, I didn't see it.

Huanhuan told her it was on China's microblog.

The lady said, 'really? Is China's Internet so powerful?'

Huanhuan: for this incident, Huanhuan was unable to independently verify the extent to which what the Chinese, shopping malls and brands said was true. It was also a pity for this report that the parties were not interviewed. Huanhuan will continue to pay attention.
