When reporters asked whether identity verification is required when registering, shopkeepers said they did not need to, “If you want to do, let me help you with my identity card, the system skips directly or you can you this card would show without a name. ”

When reporters asked if no real-name registration, when the business will be affected, shopkeepers said: “no, I’ll help you set a password, you can run your business. More convenient, when you don’t want to just throw it away. ”
