New chengguan

A photo of an attractive chengguan (urban management) worker, Xiong Zhaorong, was posted by a street vendor in Ziyang city, Sichuan province, on a local website, dubbed Ziyang Dazhong at my0832.com.

Instead of resorting to violence, a city in Southwest China's Sichuan province hired an attractive woman as a chengguan (urban management) worker.

Xiong Zhaorong is called a "goddess" by the roadside vendors, since she uses smiles to persuade the vendors to clear out rather than attack them like many other chengguan workers, West China City Daily reported.
