Bike sharing, which was once very popular, unexpectedly turned into waste and was sold. It's really heartbreaking! On May 8, a netizen disclosed to the reporter that in a demolition factory located in the second section of Xuefu, Wuhou District, Chengdu, a mountain of discarded yellow cars were flattened and loaded, waiting for the waste factory to recycle and transport them away at the price of 15 yuan each. Later, the reporter visited the scrapped factory and witnessed the process of the scrapped yellow car being rolled away.
Reporter's visit:
A mountain of discarded bicycles
'we've been pulling it for several days. I heard the boss say that it's time to pull it away and sell it as scrap iron. It's time to put it away. The truck driver, who is supervising the loading, told the reporter that several drivers, including him, have been responsible for driving the trucks in turn to carry away the abandoned shared bicycles here. This work has lasted for several days. The reporter saw that there were two excavators specially responsible for rolling and loading waste vehicles, and three trucks were waiting for loading, during which there were trucks constantly going in and out of the waste plant, and the pace was very fast.
According to the reporter's visual inspection, the majority of the shared bicycles on the trucks and the waste vehicles waiting to be transported in the yard are ofo, and there are a small number of other bicycles.
personnel:
Commissioned by ofo to remove waste vehicles
The reporter contacted the relevant personnel of the scrapping plant, and the other party said: there are about 3000 small yellow cars at the scene, and the plant is the scrapping partner of small yellow cars, which has accumulated abandoned small yellow cars for a long time. Recently, due to the requirement of urban management that the site needs to be cleaned, xiaohuangche contacted the factory and completed the centralized scrapping work in the past two days.
As for what netizens said in the disclosure, these yellow cars will be recycled at the price of 15 yuan per car, and whether there will be more yellow cars scrapped in the future, the other side said 'only leaders know'.
Subsequently, the reporter interviewed the residents nearby and learned that a large number of small yellow cars have been piled up in this area in the past six months. In recent days, there have been trucks coming in and out frequently, carrying these abandoned vehicles away. As for who is in charge of transportation and where to transport, residents nearby said it was not clear.
Ofo response:
These bicycles have reached the age of retirement
If thousands of bicycles are disposed of in a centralized way, will they be sold as waste products as rumored? Will such a large number of scrapped vehicles affect the normal transport capacity? In this regard, the reporter verified ofo, and the relevant person in charge of ofo responded that the scrapping cleaning is under the supervision of the government, and the normal management behavior of enterprises on vehicles, involving only a very small part of the vehicles in Chengdu, which has reached the goal of scrapping Years.
In response to the previous rumor that ofo will withdraw from Chengdu market, ofo also made a response: it will strive to operate the bicycle business while expanding more business possibilities.
