　　 Can "super cargo" enter a store?

One of the market groups in the foreign goods market, the entrance to the Xinyang market, is a shop with a famous brand bag. The shopkeeper is a middle-aged woman who is about 40 years old. She looks up and down the reporter and asks, "what are you doing?" the reporter took a GUCCI bag at random and asked, "let me see how the bag is sold."

"One thousand and two hundred." The workmanship of the bag is fine, but the seam is obvious. flaw "One thousand and two hundred? Why do you want to open your mouth?" is this bag genuine? I want to buy genuine products. "Genuine products can get 7 or 8 thousand." "It's too expensive. 7 or 8 thousand, I can buy it at the exclusive store. Is this bag a genuine product? "

"This is super cargo, 1:1A goods, the same as the sales in the exclusive stores, and it is the latest model." The shopkeeper said without any disguised remarks, pointing to several other packages, said, "these are much cheaper. Hundreds of pieces will be fine. You have to see what they are, though they are all imitation goods, but there are also differences in quality."

In a later interview, the reporter learned that the shopkeepers here would be frank enough to admit that they were selling imitation goods. The same is true for a peddling of famous brand belts and fishing gear and accessories. When asked about the price of a BOSS belt, the stall owner said very frankly, "60 yuan, so cheap, it must be imitation."

　 　 Imitation goods Predicament

During the conversation between Mr. Zhang and reporters, several nearby stall owners also came around, and they seemed to be very busy. "You sell imitation goods, no one to check it?" on this issue, they answered in chorus: "check ah." Mr. Zhang said, "every day, people from the trade and Industry Bureau will check. When they come, we can only collect everything from "brand". He pointed to the fishing gear and accessories beside him, "only selling fishing gear and accessories." The reporter noted that almost every booth has two commodity areas, namely, imitation goods area and "national cargo area", and the goods in the "national goods area" are all commodities without LOGO. "There is no way. We have no way to mix up our meals. They check it every day and cause our traffic to decrease. Business is too bad to do. " A big stout brother followed Mr. Zhang's words.

"Before, there will be a lot of customers between 7:30 and 8:30. You see, there are few people now, or we don't have time to chat with you." Mr. Zhang's remarks were endorsed by several other vendors. stay Foreign goods market After 7 years of operation, the business of foreign goods market is not as good as a day. He told reporters that business was good before the year before last, but from the year before last, the flow of people slowly decreased, and the popularity of the imitation goods channels and the flourishing of online shopping to a certain extent hit the prosperity here.

"Since business is so gloomy, it is still necessary to sneak into business. Have you ever thought of a solution, such as brand authorization?" The reporter asked.

"Brand licensing? I never thought about it. How can a small business like this apply for brand licensing? Those who sell fake goods to thousands of dollars can do so. We have no such ability. Mr. Zhang has come up with your ideas.

"Have you ever thought about not selling imitation goods, only selling good quality products made by domestic enterprises?"

A businessman pointed to his counter and said, "I sell it, but people who come here generally come to buy" famous brand "products. They hardly see the" non famous brand "products.

"Ah... I think we are almost demolished, and many businesses can't do it sooner. " Mr. Zhang's plans for the future are mostly selling goods and finding a place to work.

There is no bright prospect and no ability to transform. The embarrassing situation of selling fake goods traders in Tanggu foreign goods market may be a sign of the future of imitation. What's the future of Tanggu's foreign goods market in the past? What will be the future of the people who make a living in this market? It is a matter worth pondering.
