On May 25th, People's Daily Online, a website under the Chinese Communist Party newspaper People's Daily, reported that some netizens reported recently that the Changsha flower shop cheated to buy flowers to condole the netizens by changing the same bunch of flowers with cards of different people to take photos.
According to the Chinese enterprise information query platform Qicha APP, the store involved was included in the list of abnormal operations in 2017 because it failed to submit an annual report in accordance with regulations.
After the news broke, a number of Weibo netizens reported that they had similar experiences. They ordered flowers for Yuan Longping's condolences at the online flower shop in Changsha, but there was no delivery person. The flowers photographed by the shop did not match their reservations, and they were suspected of fraudulent use or repeated use. .
The incident caused strong dissatisfaction among netizens. Netizens have criticized, "The merchants are too unscrupulous, and this kind of conscientious money is earned", "It's just eating human blood steamed buns", and "smearing Changsha."
However, according to China News Weekly, the staff of one of the florists involved said that they were too busy to take photos one by one, but they were all arranged according to the order number and sent one car by car. "There is no time to take pictures one by one. If you take a panoramic view, each card will be different if you look carefully.” The shop owner said that his flower shop has been open for more than ten years and would not do such a thing.
China's "father of hybrid rice" Yuan Longping died of illness in Changsha, Hunan at 13:07 on May 22, at the age of 91. Chinese state media Xinhua News Agency said on May 24 that Yuan Longping had made great contributions to solving the world's hunger and poverty.
