Why is the color of litchi sold so bright?

The lychee sold by the fruit is particularly bright, and the color is not so beautiful when you buy it the next day. Why?

    Litchi is soaked in sulfuric acid solution or sprayed with ethylene water repellent to make the discolored litchi bright red and attractive, but it is easy to spoil. This type of solution is more acidic and can cause peeling of hands, blistering of the mouth, and burns of the stomach. There are also fruit vendors who smoke with sulfur, and sulfur dioxide can cause strong irritation to the eyes and throat, leading to dizziness, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. Sulfur dioxide can also cause cancer.
