Parking has to wait for three hours, checkout and wait for two hours; the entrance is equipped with security personnel to prevent the influx of people, Prada bags, Moutai and even roast chicken are in short supply; the surrounding Lianyou Road and Zhujian Road traffic once smashed… This is August On the 27th, the first day of the opening of Costco Shanghai Minhang Store. After experiencing traffic congestion and safety hazards caused by passenger flow overload, Costco decided to suspend business in the afternoon on the day of opening.
On August 28th, Costco reopened the door after welcoming. At noon on the same day, Costco made an explanation about the early suspension of business on the opening day of the opening of the first store in Shanghai. It apologized for the early termination of business due to safety reasons. It said that the number of shopping in the store will be controlled within 2,000 people from August 28 and will be used. SMS and APP inform the consumer of the latest status of the store.
Costco’s hot start caused widespread concern, CCTV anchor Guo Zhijian said:
There is a huge consumer market behind China. The purchasing power has not been said, and the potential is even more unlimited. In order to attract Chinese consumers into this market, everyone is sharpening their heads and smashing their heads. Today, there are reports on the joint broadcast. The foreign retail industry continues to increase in Shanghai. Where will it be willing to withdraw? Decoupling from China is decoupling from business opportunities and decoupling from the future. Therefore, the decoupling argument is to yell at the collapse, and I am afraid that not many people will be hooked.
It is worth noting that after the “crazy” welcome of Shanghai residents on Tuesday, the stock price of US stocks in the evening broke through 5% in the previous period, and rose again by 1.24% last night (as of 0:33 on the 29th Beijing time). The total market value has increased by 7.8 billion US dollars in two days, that is, about 56 billion yuan!
