On June 3–4, a woman in Chengdu, Sichuan, staged two consecutive days of protest at a China Ping An Insurance branch. She says she paid nearly 200,000 yuan in premiums, only to have the company reimburse just 20% of her medical expenses when she fell ill. When she went to cancel her policy, staff refused to give her a straight answer about how much she would get back, fobbing her off with the phrase “reimbursed at cash value” and pressuring her into signing the paperwork — leaving her with a refund of just over 20,000 yuan. She says others who purchased the same type of policy have received full refunds, and that she alone has been treated differently.
During the protest, the woman collapsed after becoming so distressed that she hyperventilated. Not a single staff member approached to check on her or offer assistance. She posted videos of her protest to Douyin, where they quickly amassed over ten million views before being deleted by the platform.

From May 19 to 30, thousands of victims of a fake medicine scheme held consecutive days of protests in Taoyuan County, Changde, Hunan, demanding the return of money paid for fraudulent treatments.
