On April 6, the website of Deutsche Welle radio published a report by the reporter of Frankfurter Zeitung in Shanghai. The author first wrote in a relaxed and pleasant style:
"Beautiful, fast and cheap. It's a great pleasure to explore the reinforced concrete forests of Chinese cities on electric light bikes. As Westerners stationed in Shanghai or Beijing, they will soon realize the benefits of electric light bikes made in China. The top speed can be close to 60 kilometers per hour. The shiny plastic shell imitates the shape of Italian light bike Vespa, but the price is only 2000 yuan. They can charge at home, and the electricity charge in China is very cheap 。 In congested urban streets, electric light riding can give people priceless freedom. "
"Although many of China's middle class simply don't want to touch the handle of this cheap product; even one of my German colleagues who has lived in Shanghai for 15 years once said contemptuously that he doesn't want to ride this kind of car 'like a French intern'. However, sitting on the artificial leather seat, I, a wealthy westerner stationed in China, is equal to hundreds of millions of migrant workers, who ride electric bicycles to skyscrapers The construction site of the building, or express delivery for Taobao merchants Today, the number of electric light riders in China has reached 200 million. On its wheels, it carries China's economic miracle. Who cares about the many traffic accidents it causes? People drive this kind of silent electric light ride, drive in the opposite direction at night, and even turn off the lights to save electricity. "
Then the author pointed out that the Chinese government was concerned about the traffic accidents caused by electric light riding. Recently, Beijing and Guangdong have successively issued a ban on electric light riding. However, over the past few years, the Chinese authorities have repeatedly tried to ban electric light riding, but failed.
"The reason is very simple: China has 70 cars per 1000 people. Although urban public transport has made rapid progress, it still can not meet the needs of residents in mega cities such as Beijing and Shanghai. Therefore, many workers choose electric light bikes. The service industry especially relies on this means of transport."
The report points out that China's booming express business and catering takeout business are inseparable from electric Qingqi. With the introduction of the ban, many service industry practitioners are facing no small trouble.
