　　在3月下旬摩拜推出了“红包车”之后，4月16日，ofo也开始派发现金红包。

　　Mobike users hoping to cash in need to find and unlock bikes marked with hongbao, or red, cash-filled envelopes. Ofo users, meanwhile, can ride any bike within particular regions tagged as offering hongbao.
　　两家共享单车公司的规定有所不同，摩拜用户需要使用有“红包车”标记的单车，而ofo用户需要在手机软件上所显示的红包区域内开锁用车。
　　Ofo also noted 2 that higher rewards are more likely to be given to users who park their bikes in city-designated areas.
　　此外，Ofo公司还规定，凡是把车辆停放在指定的自行车停放区内，获得大红包的概率将大大增加。

　　Shared bikes are becoming increasingly popular in China, especially among white-collar workers during rush hour. Hence, bikes are often in high demand near bus or subway stations.
　　共享单车在中国越来越流行，尤其是在上下班高峰期的白领人群中。所以，公交车站和地铁站附近的自行车需求量很大。

　　“现金红包”活动是为了策略性地调配车辆的分布，但是要想保证自行车的供应，控制办公楼与交通枢纽之间的车辆供需平衡仍然比较很难。
　　Nevertheless, both companies appear to be thriving. Mobike announced on April 13 - less than one month after its reward policy was made public - that it set a record of 20 million bike rides on a single day. Ofo achieved its own record of 10 million rides at the end of March, media reported.
　　无论怎样，这两家公司的业务都是蒸蒸日上。在现金红包的活动推出之后，摩拜于4月13日宣布其日订单超过2000万。而据媒体报道，ofo则在3月底完成了日订单1000万的目标。
