Recently, a takeaway rider in Hohhot, Inner Mongolia, has attracted widespread attention because of the video of "Running to Deliver Food". In the video, the takeaway in the costume of the US group rider runs in small steps on the street and in the snow, and sometimes carries the takeaway ordered by the customer in his hand, which is called "Shenxing Taibao" by netizens.
According to the online video, many locals used their mobile phones to record the figure of this takeaway. In response to this situation, the crowdsourcing stationmaster of the rider’s site responded that the rider had made it clear that there was no abnormality in his body. Most daily orders were delivered by electric vehicles, and the site did not give special care, only short-distance orders were distributed.
Some netizens said that this takeaway who runs and delivers food is actually an online red man @ Shenxingtaibao. In a video, a customer talks to the takeaway when he receives the takeaway. The takeaway mentions that he really delivers food on foot. He can receive about 20 orders a day, but most orders are delivered within 1 km. In the comment area of each video, many netizens left messages encouraging him and praising his spirit. A netizen who claimed to be a short video director explained that the takeaway was unable to ride an electric car and often sent takeout in Hohhot, and the site distributed him a list nearby. Another netizen said that the takeaway was unable to ride a bike because of muscle weakness. After his parents passed away, he could only support himself. The street staff introduced him to the takeaway station, and the site also took care of him. As far as possible, he distributed a short-distance list within 1.5 kilometers to help him complete his work.
However, a merchant who runs a food store in Saihan District, Hohhot, took photos of the delivery man riding an electric car to deliver food, and said that he had visited the store several times before to help customers get meals, but it has not appeared for a long time recently. As for whether the rider is sick or not and why he runs to deliver food, the store said that he did not know.
The reporter checked the short video account of @ Shenxingtaibao mentioned by netizens, and found that the avatar of the account was the takeaway. There were less than 30 videos released, and only 2 videos were recorded for running and delivering food, all of which were shot from the third perspective. In order to verify the authenticity of the video content, the reporter contacted the local crowdsourcing webmaster, and the other party reported: "What we learned is different from that on the Internet." The webmaster said that the short video account of @ Shenxingtaibao is actually not used by the takeaway himself.
The crowdsourcing stationmaster revealed that the takeaway is a crowdsourcing staff member. After paying attention to his running and delivering food, the station has repeatedly asked him whether he has difficulties in life and needs help, and whether his body is as inconvenient as netizens said. The rider said that he was not physically abnormal and his daily running was normal. The stationmaster also said that this rider can’t just run to deliver the order, but some close-range orders will be delivered on foot, so there is no situation that the net can’t ride a bike. In addition, the crowdsourcing stationmaster pointed out that the take-away staff took orders by their own mobile phones, and there was no introduction of work by the community or the street.
