I read, that it is being bought, but will continue to run under the UBER brand with everything...

The Uber fare estimate does work for me from here in the US. It shows about Y20 from the Doubletree (where I'm staying) to the Forbidden City. Does that sound like a fair price? How is traffic, or would it be better to take the subway?
and what happens on your phone, when you choose a pickup location (just choosing the pickup spot, not calling the car) in Beijing (for example PEK airport), because in my case, it causes the app to immediately crash
