Hi, The var lock that is locking up store and updates is a bug they are working on. I expect Deepin patches soon. On my systems I disabled auto-check update until they fix. but you need to reset computer to see the benefit of that.
As far as the CDN acceleration of the mirrors there are CDN nodes in China and USA so the acceleration is not obvious in other areas. They are working to improve and expand. Some users in other areas select a different mirror to use in there etc/apt/sources.list
Your bottom terminal output that shows errors I have not seen before. I would do a sudo apt-get clean and sudo apt-get autoclean before trying to update again.

Hello.
Just asking. Is there going to be a day soon, in which the updates work properly? xD
I have been trying to do a simple update and just 4 out of 5 attempts I can't.
First, the damn error, over and over again. Even after killing processes that were running apt.
I delete that lock file and yes, no more errors of that sort at the moment.
Then. Try to update again and it does not begin, it stops at 0% as if were processing information or something similar, so I cancel it.
After cancelling it usually goes well, except for the mayor problem of the download speed (that is in Bytes!, when I'm in luck I get KBytes ~20KB/s)
So I just wait for the 10 MB download like half hour.
What is weird (for me) is that installing programs is relatively fast. But updates and upgrades are just painful.
Yes, I have tried various mirros in System Information (does not even one with Fast speed, at most Medium). The main mirror CDN is slow.
So, is there like a work in progress about this? I really don't like using anything else to update/upgrade/install other than the terminal, because it is usually easier and faster. I don't know if Deepin is backwards and prefer other place to do this faster? Because the Update in SI, the wheel just keeps circling forever, even after I disable auto-update just now (weird stuff).
Other than that, great distro xD.
P.S. I'm in Mexico by the way.
The update went through, but always returns some errors. It should not happen.
