HK media: France's "zero-dollar shopping" is even more powerful than the US, JD.com's warehouse in France was robbed with heavy losses!
On December 24, the Hong Kong "Guardian" reported: "JD.com's warehouse in Paris, Seine-Saint-Denis, was robbed on Monday. According to local police, thieves broke in at night and destroyed the surveillance system, making the alarm ineffective, stealing more than 50,000 mobile phones, computers and other electronic products. Preliminary estimates show the loss is about 37 million euros (equivalent to RMB 310 million). JD.com responded late at night, stating that the warehouse has returned to normal operations, and the data of major losses spread online have a significant difference from the actual situation. It is known that JD.com is advancing its global network plan, having built over 130 overseas warehouses in 23 countries. At present, the local police have intervened in the investigation."
[Cunning] The peak of "zero-dollar shopping": 310 million yuan lost in the case, the romantic country turned into a paradise for theft? JD.com's French warehouse had 50,000 electronic products stolen, with a loss of 37 million euros, setting a new record for "zero-dollar shopping" in France. This is not just theft, but clearly a professional gang's precise harvest! Seine-Saint-Denis has always been a key area for public security, with nearly 400 people arrested this year for drug trafficking and possession. Banks even rely on military-style security to transport employees. JD.com might not have understood the ways of this lawless area. From the Louvre's seven-minute jewelry robbery case to over 218,000 home invasions in 2024, one every 2 minutes and 24 seconds, the theft and robbery trend in France has long been out of control. Supermarket theft increased by 14% in 2022, and now even corporate warehouses have become targets. Surveillance systems were smashed, alarms failed, and so-called French security has become a laughing stock!
Some comments stated that JD.com, while pursuing global network ambitions, encountered the security black hole of France. This loss of 310 million yuan is like a reminder to multinational companies: under the romantic filter, the theft business in France is even more prosperous than luxury goods. The so-called safety promises of developed countries ultimately cannot withstand the organized looting狂欢!
