Yunnan official: Investigation to be conducted, online rumor of female tour guide cursing tourists for "conscience eaten by dogs" video | Tour guide | Conscience
According to a video report by Jiupai News, on June 4th, a netizen posted a video exposing that a female tour guide in a Yunnan tourism group asked tourists to buy silver and criticized them for being cold, selfish, and shameless, which attracted attention.
In the video, a female tour guide said to the tourists in the car, "The master is too embarrassed to let you get on the car. People want face and skin. If you don't buy a penny for several stops, it's really shameless. Some customers are really pretending to be X, they're just a few dozen years old, so show some face."
"In the future, the people in this place will never be accepted. China has 1.5 billion people with virtues like you. Has Yunnan tourism become a charity?"
"Did it cost me two or three thousand to lose everything? How much did you give me for the tour guide fee and how much did you give me for the master's hard work fee? If you can still smile at this moment, then your conscience is really being eaten by the dog."
The tour guide also said that they had already told tourists that there were shopping itineraries, and they had not seen such a guest in more than ten years. They had never led such a bad group before, and in order to make everyone buy something, they brought out all eighteen martial arts skills.
On June 5th, Kunming Culture and Tourism responded to this matter: Regarding the issues raised, it has been learned. Please provide specific evidence materials such as the subject of the complaint, tourism contract, relevant pictures or audio and video of the fee receipts for investigation.
