on the afternoon of october 4, netizen "notes speaker" and his party came to shili silver beach and placed beach mats to rest in front of the "sunset limoncello" merchant. the shop owner's son (a ten-year-old boy) found that the table and chairs at the door were being used by tourists, so he communicated with the tourists many times, but the tourists ignored him. the shop owner’s son called his father (the man using the shovel in the video) to communicate with him, but the tourists still ignored him. the shopkeeper tried to drive away the tourists by shoveling sand and throwing it at each other, causing dissatisfaction among the tourists. the tourists also threw sand at the shopkeeper, and a fierce verbal conflict broke out between the two parties. after persuasion by surrounding people and tourists, the two parties reconciled and made room for each other.

in response to the uncivilized behavior of the "sunset limoncello" merchant who shoveled sand to drive away tourists, huizhou haori tourism service co., ltd. issued a warning to the owner of the store and ordered him to suspend business for 7 days for rectification. the renshan town people's government severely criticized and educated the merchant for his uncivilized behavior, ordered it to formulate rectification measures during the closure period, and required the management company to conduct civilized management training for the merchant in response to this incident. only those who pass the training can continue to operate.
