但对生活在国外的人来说,“手机在我手,买啥都不愁”的消费方式仍然停留在理想层面,他们出门还是需要老老实实带钱包刷卡的...支付宝支付?不存在的!

1. Do you use a wallet?

Frankly, I haven’t carried my wallet for 2 years, since the mobile payment is the mainstream way of paying bills in China. The current society of China is a typical cashless one. Of course, some people still take the wallet for accommodating credit and ID cards, but honestly it is less common among people of my age.

坦白讲,我已经两年没有用过钱包了,因为在中国,移动支付是买单的主要方式。当今的中国社会是典型的无现金社会。当然,有些人仍旧使用钱包来存放信用卡或身份证件,但老实说这在我的同龄人中相当少见。

2. Have you ever lost your wallet?

Yes. It happened when I was away on a business trip to Shanghai around 3 years ago. I lost my backpack with the wallet inside in a local taxi. And I realised it when I was checking in the hotel. It’s obviously awful and troublesome to lose a wallet which contains so much personal and financial information. Luckily, the taxi driver found my contact through the platform and sent the purse back soon.

是的,大约3年前,我去上海出差的时候丢过钱包。我把双肩包丢在了当地的出租车上,而钱包正在其中。我在宾馆办理入住的时候才发现。钱包里全是个人和财务信息,丢了它显然很可怕,麻烦不断。幸运的是,出租车司机通过平台找到了我的联系方式,很快就把钱包送了回来。

3. Have you ever sent a wallet to someone as a gift?

Absolutely yes. Sending a wallet as a gift is a powerful symbol representing wealth and fortune in China. You can consider this as a kind of superstition, but it doesn’t stop people sending wallets as gifts. I’ve sent wallets to several people including my families, colleagues and friends. However, I chose different sizes and textures to suit them better.

当然送过。在中国,送别人钱包作礼物是象征财富和幸运的强有力的标志。你可以把这当做一种迷信,但依旧挡不住人们把钱包当做礼物送出去。我就曾经把钱包送过很多人,包括家人、同事和朋友。但是,我会挑选不同的大小和材质,以使它们更适合使用的人。

4. Do most of your friends use wallets?

No, I don’t think so. It’s also because of the reason I mentioned just now. Cashless payment is prevailing in China, so wallets are no longer a must-have and it is even bizarre if you see a young person paying by cash. Only the senior and a minority of middle-aged people are still used to cash paying.

不,并非如此。这也是因为我刚刚提到过的原因。无现金的支付方式在中国十分普遍,所以钱包不再是必需品。如果你看到一个年轻人用现金支付,甚至会感到很怪异。只有老年人和少部分中年人仍在使用现金支付。
