"UU running errands for 999 yuan to kowtow causes controversy, UU responds: Aimed at serving empty-nest elderly people"

On February 9, UU Run Errands launched a service that is quite innovative - Chinese New Year Blessing Service. The 999 yuan "Blessing Service for Elders" has sparked a lot of discussion because it includes traditional etiquette, bowing, and other elements. According to the poster released by UU Run Errands, the Blessing Service for Elders includes buying New Year goods, delivering gifts, a 1-minute blessing, bowing three times, real-time video streaming, and other customized services. UU Run Errands explained that each order is serviced by one "runner," and if two runners are needed, two separate orders must be placed. After placing an order, the system will assign the nearest runner, and the exact arrival time depends on the distance between the runner and the customer. For scheduled orders, the runner will arrive on time. It is worth noting that UU Run Errands stated that the bowing and etiquette service is only for elders and elderly people as a traditional way to show filial piety. It is not allowed to mock or deliberately make things difficult for the runner, and the runner is free to cancel the order without consequences. The service provided by the runner must not violate laws or public morals. The bowing and etiquette service has sparked debate, and the account "The Capable UU Run Errands" responded in the comments: The purpose of the Blessing Service with bowing is to provide a heartwarming way for those who are unable to return home for the Chinese New Year due to work or travel reasons but still want to convey their love and blessings to their elders. We especially focus on groups like empty nesters who need companionship, and we hope to send them sincere greetings and care during the holidays.
