（图源：微博@平安北京）

A woman in a car with embassy license plate, which was parked in the middle of the road and blocked the traffic in Beijing on Sunday, apologized on Wednesday, as she arrogantly ignored other drivers' prompts and claimed that she had diplomatic immunity, causing online public outrage. Local traffic management authorities in Beijing announced that they had issued a fine to the individual. 

16日，一女子驾驶使馆牌照车辆违停挡路，并在面对其他司机劝阻时叫嚣有外交豁免权，此事在网上引起公愤，当事人于19日道歉。北京交管部门于19日通报已依法处罚。

An online video of an individual engaged in illegal parking in Beijing attracted widespread public attention. In the video, the woman, who appeared to be Yu Qi, Secretary-General of the Asia-Pacific Space Cooperation Organization (APSCO), sat inside the car and responded to some complaints in an arrogant way by saying that "Do you know what an embassy car is? Do you understand the diplomatic immunity?" 

一则关于某人在北京违规停车的网络视频引起了公众的广泛关注。视频显示，坐在车里的女子疑为亚太空间合作组织秘书长余琦，面对劝阻时，她叫嚣“懂什么叫使馆车吗？懂什么叫外交豁免权吗?”。

The vehicle was parked illegally, blocking the road at the entrance of a residential area in Beijing.

该车违规停放，堵塞了某居民区入口的道路。

According to a preliminary investigation by the police, the vehicle in question is registered to an international organization. On Sunday morning, a man surnamed Xu, who is 61 years old, and a 58-year-old woman surnamed Yu, who is employed by the international organization, drove to the location and parked the car on the road, violating parking management regulations and obstructing passing vehicles, the Beijing Municipal Public Security Bureau said on Wednesday. 

根据警方的初步调查，涉事车辆登记在一国际组织名下。北京警方19日通报，6月16日上午，徐某某（男，61岁）与余某（女，58岁，就职于该国际组织）夫妇驱车至该地点，将车停靠在机动车道上，违反停车管理规定，影响过往车辆通行。

Prompted by others to move, they refused to move the car, insulted others, and made inappropriate remarks, causing a negative social impact, police said. 

后在他人提醒时，他们仍拒绝挪车，并辱骂他人、发表不当言论，造成不良社会影响。

The traffic police issued a fine for the violation. While officials also uncovered an instance of Xu and Yu owning a dog without proper registration during the investigation, and the local public security authority has taken appropriate action according to legal procedures, the authority said. 

对于上述交通违法情况，公安交管部门依法作出罚款处罚。对工作中发现的余某夫妇违规饲养犬只的违法行为，属地公安机关依照法定程序作出相应处理。

The local public security authority has initiated an administrative case linked to Yu's public security violations.

对余某存在的治安违法行为，属地公安机关已立为行政案件开展工作。

今年，中国几大电子商务平台都采取了更加务实和简化的方法，取消了预售，重点利用性价比高的商品和直播来促销。

Data from e-commerce giant JD, which initiated the midyear promotional event, showed that the number of shoppers buying domestic brands surged more than 40 percent year-on-year over the weekslong gala, which kicked off at 8 pm on May 31.
