"After returning to Germany, I immediately started missing China"

The German "Commercial Daily" website published an article entitled "Where is Beijing Advanced Berlin" on August 24. Through comparison, the reporter told the strong and convenientness of the Chinese digital economy. The full text compiles as follows:

When I was shopping in Germany again after three years, I was shocked. The salesperson asked me, with a credit card or cash payment? I answered, using a card. Then I put the credit card on the card reader and get it. I don't even need to enter a password, and this is just a few euros (1 euros about 6.85 yuan).

This is the case in the coffee shop, restaurant or street corner. I only encountered a salesperson who complained in the building materials market that complained why I could not pay with cash by 17 euros.

Now Germany in my eyes has taken a big step forward -not only reflected in the payment method. Maybe my impression is inaccurate, maybe Germany can already be paid digital before, but in any case, the current situation has attracted my attention.

Of course, Germany's digitalization cannot be compared with China. In China, I pay with WeChat most of the time, and I can collect money with WeChat groups after eating with others.

After returning to Germany, I immediately started missing China's strong service industry. There, no matter what I need, you can find a contact in WeChat: when you want flowers, send a message to the boss of the flower shop. He will send a bouquet of flowers to the door a few hours later.

In Beijing, if a friend forgets to return the book to me, she will find a delivery person to send it; if I want to buy a ribbon or photo frame of the packaging gift, I will never run to a store. Instead, I would rather stroll on the endless Taobao for a few hours, find the right product before letting the courier come to the door.

I am not the only person who uses these services: the streets of Beijing and Shanghai are full of riders, and there are many things that are delivered -from a cup of coffee to rice cookers, everything is available.

Although in Germany, we can also buy services through the Internet -we have found a new dog walking staff on a website, but the types of service are much less than China.

In addition, in Shenzhen and other cities, electric cars have long been used in buses and taxis, but in Germany, even several electric cars are seen on the streets like Berlin, and buses are still using diesel. engine. In this regard, Germany can completely get the scriptures from China.
