Hong Kong-based GoBee was one of the first Asian companies to try to crack the French market. Its distinctive green bikes, which could be parked anywhere after use, became a common sight on pavements in Paris.
总部位于香港的GoBee是首批试图打入法国市场的亚洲企业之一。该公司独特的绿色自行车在巴黎人行道上随处可见——用户用完后可停在任何地方。
However, within a few months of launching, more than 1,000 bikes had been stolen, almost 3,400 damaged across the country and nearly 300 complaints filed with the police. Many of the bikes were simply parked at people’s homes — or “privatised,” in the company’s words.
然而,在投放市场后的几个月内,法国全境就有1000多辆GoBee自行车被盗,近3400辆遭到损毁,警方接到相关报警近300起。许多自行车被人停放在自己家中——或者用该公司的话来说是“被据为己有”。
Although some suggested the fate of GoBee underlined a problem with civil society in France — and in particular with its marginalised youth in the suburbs — the company has also exited Italy and Belgium this year. “We were ready for some initial vandalism,” the company said after leaving Italy. “But unfortunately, during the past weeks, the vandalism and attacks towards our fleet have reached limits we can no longer overcome.”
虽然一些人认为GoBee的命运突显出法国民间社会——尤其是郊区被边缘化的法国年轻人——的一个问题,但该公司今年还退出了意大利和比利时市场。该公司在退出意大利后表示:“我们对一些最初的破坏行为有心理准备。但遗憾的是,在过去数周里,我们的自行车所遭到的破坏和袭击超出了我们能够承受的限度。”
