In recent years, the entertainment industry can be described as a piece"The situation is changing", some people were named by the central media for tax evasion, some people risked overseas ** were ** **, and some people were put in prison for bad Xi.
Celebrity couples have also joined the ranks of creating business empires, but behind these glories there is a truth about "pyramid schemes".
As soon as the name Zhang Ting is mentioned, people immediately think of "micro-business", not an actor.
They used to use the star effect as a cushion to make their brand super monetized, and made tens of billions of dollars in just a few years!
Behind the wanton accumulation of wealth, what kind of behaviors did Zhang Ting and his wife carry out to harm others and benefit themselves?How did the "conspiracy" of the micro-business empire come to light?
The term "micro-business" began to circulate in the circle of friends as early as 2012.
Zhang Ting, at the age of 40, saw a business opportunity, and the following year, the couple launched their own brand, TST Ting Secret.
They said that this was a skin care secret that Zhang Ting's husband Lin Ruiyang brought back from abroad.
In this way, Zhang Ting became one of the first stars to try micro-business and began the journey of skin care product business.
Since founding the brand and endorsing it, she no longer adheres to the principle of "low-key outside the screen" when she was an actress, but frequently shows her personal life on social platforms.
It was only then that people realized what it meant that "poverty limits imagination".
Zhang Ting seems to have transformed into the "chief helmsman of micro-business" overnight, exuding a heroic aura, which is amazing.
She sits on a mansion worth more than 100 million yuan, which covers an area of more than 1,600 square meters, and is in the center of Shanghai, a place where every inch of land is valuable.
In order to create an open-air garden worth tens of millions, special personnel were specially arranged to take care of it.
Not only do they have nannies, aunts and tutors, but they also have several drivers for daily outings.
Zhang Tinghui said that it is no wonder that she usually gets lost when she visits her home for the first time.
When you think this is enough to be extravagant, Zhang Ting did not hesitate to take out 1.7 billion yuan to pocket a building by the Huangpu River.
When her best friend came to visit, she didn't even blink an eye, and directly gave her a whole floor.
Zhang Ting not only treated the company's employees generously, but also directly chartered a giant cruise ship for team building in order to give back to the employees, which is said to have cost 15 million.
Zhang Ting's "micro-business empire" is closely related to numerous mansions and extravagant behaviors.
After Zhang Ting and his wife founded TST Court Secret, their lives ushered in the peak. In just two years, the number of registered members online** has exceeded 5 million.
By experiencing the sweet taste of star effect and relying on the accumulated interpersonal relationships in the circle, the company's development has been smooth sailing.
And Tao Hong, who has a close relationship with Zhang Ting, also came to the scene at the annual meeting and stood on the platform to publicize.
Many celebrities have made remarks on social platforms and shown themselves using the product, further increasing the publicity efforts.
The more stars like this, the better, and Zhang Ting has tried and tested repeatedly. The strong star effect brings great brand communication speed, in short, it is very beneficial.
Zhang Ting not only recommended his own ** products in variety shows, but also started the live broadcast mode, carried out a lot of publicity on Douyin and interacted with celebrities.
Just one live event brought 25.6 billion turnover, and this live broadcast lasted only five hours.
With such a business model, Zhang Ting and his wife made their company's sales close to 8 billion in just five years. Even the monthly salary paid for employees is as high as 500 million.
In 2019, the tax payment amount in the region reached 2.1 billion yuan, becoming the leader in tax revenue, even surpassing the three giants of the express delivery industry, Shentong, Zhongtong and Yunda.
According to the revelations, in 2021, the annual sales of TST Ting Secret will exceed 30 billion, and the number of brand ** will reach 8 million, becoming one of the most popular brands in the micro-business channel, so Zhang Ting and his wife have become the top in the micro-business world.
It is easy to perceive that TST's ability to attract funds at that time was extremely terrifying"Micro-business empire"The title is not false.
At that time, in the promotional presentation, everything was a positive image.
Zhang Ting claimed that her actions were to help Bao Ma and other disadvantaged groups expand employment opportunities, and encourage women to engage in entrepreneurship and move towards prosperity.
Most mothers are convinced and have joined to become the best people, and the continuous joining of celebrities has made them firm in this decision.
Judging from the release of ** and **, everything shows the appearance of harmony and common development.
However, in fact, common prosperity is just an empty word, and only Zhang Ting and his wife have benefited from beginning to end.
The old saying that most of the wealth of the rich is acquired through the exploitation of the poor is not without reason.
Zhang Ting and his wife are no exception, hiding huge wealth.
According to insiders, most of the ** sold by TST are sold at a price of 100 yuan each, but the actual purchase price cost is only 4 yuan.
Users of the product later reported that they had "rotten faces", "redness" and "severe disfigurement".
A Gansu lady was severely disfigured by the product she purchased.
Her career and family have been devastated, and she even made it clear that she wanted to go to the TST headquarters in Shanghai and jump from the roof.
However, the other side turned a blind eye to these negative news.
At the same time, the members could not bear such a heavy pressure, and they came forward to confide in their hearts, describing the plight of their families being ruined.
What's going on here?What's the secret behind it?
The cause of everything can be traced back to the ** system of TST. Zhang Ting issued a recruitment order, claiming that if the franchise fee is zero, you can get the membership of the first right.
There is only one small condition that needs to be met, that is, you have purchased their products.
In fact, the so-called "changing the soup without changing the medicine" is a disguised way of charging.
On January 1, 2018, TST began to implement the Red Card Membership Bonus Program.
After joining the membership, your task is not only to sell products, but also to try to attract more people to join and continue to develop your downline, just like "two in life, two in three, and three in everything".
In short, the mission of becoming a member can be described as multifaceted.
They also have a rebate program that uses a two-tiered remuneration system.
Once the upline member reaches a certain amount, they are eligible to set up a subsidiary. It's unabashedly said that this is a joint venture.
They also earn a commission from their downline sales performance, which is actually achieved through team rebates.
In order to attract more people to join, they are constantly adapting the system and introducing various renovations.
In pursuit of huge profits, they kept buying goods, and as a result, hundreds of thousands of goods were backlogged and could not be sold.
At the same time, red card members are eager to gain financial freedom as soon as possible and realize their dreams.
In his circle of friends and various social platforms, he carefully weaves a beautiful vision of "luxury cars, luxury houses, and luxury tourism", luring more young people and even mothers to join it.
They think that women's money is easy to earn, especially young mothers and housewives. These women rarely participate in social activities on weekdays, spend most of their time doing housework, and have no financial ** of their own.
However, it offers the opportunity to own their own business at zero cost, and they don't realize that they are actually falling victim to this big dream-making game.
Tens of thousands of mothers are attracted by celebrity couples and the influence of this circle, desperately joining them, and are even willing to take out loans to buy products.
As a result, they fell deeper and deeper into the quagmire, and finally lost nothing.
With the continuous exposure of negative news, people have gradually unveiled the mystery behind the "micro-business empire".
Behind the brilliance of the Zhang Ting couple lies a variety of means.
Through clever packaging, they brand cheap products as high-end brands, claiming to be micro-business sales, but in fact, they rely on continuous development and offline to obtain a lot of wealth.
This business model is clearly taking advantage of loopholes and adopting the method of pyramid schemes.
Lies can't last after all, the legal net is vast and tight, and no matter how cunning your methods are, there will always be a day when they will be exposed.
At the beginning of 2021, Zhang Ting and his wife's company were accused of participating in pyramid schemes, and were investigated and dealt with by the municipal regulatory authorities.
In this case, they should have kept a low profile and repented, but they insisted that everything was due for their own efforts.
Zhang Ting is still showing off her grievances in the live broadcast room, she broke down emotionally when facing the camera, crying and her voice trembled, showing her professional skills as an actor.
You know, I wake up at six in the morning and I have to put on makeup a lot and work until nine at night. How hard I worked.
I can't even find time to spend with my kids.
Their tears do not arouse sympathy at the moment, because they only need to work hard for a day or even a few hours to obtain wealth that ordinary people cannot obtain in a lifetime.
He is still openly expressing his sorrow and telling the hard work of his work, which is tantamount to a laughing stock in the eyes of the outside world.
The previous times were quiet and beautiful, and the luxurious life was well known, but it was all built on the pain and misery of countless poor people.
Soon after, Mr. and Mrs. Zhang were embarrassed by the results of the investigation.
Officials have been notified that their illegal gains have been confiscated 1927990,000 yuan, and 96 properties under his name have been seized.
The turning point happened so quickly that some of the more than 40 celebrities who had promoted it hastily cleared up their relationship, while most chose to remain silent for fear of getting involved.
Mr. and Mrs. Zhang Ting have always insisted that their business practices were legal and tried to evade punishment, and they have repeatedly defended themselves with a resolute attitude.
However, these netizens are not stupid people, and attempts to manipulate ** are destined to fail.
The state has its own judgment, and gone are the days of collapsed edifices and profiteering by "rubbing edges". I believe that the state will also make a judgment, and the days of wanting to make huge profits through this set of "rubbing edges" are gone.
The success story of Zhang Ting and his wife is breathtaking, whether it is the mansion worth hundreds of millions of yuan before, or the more than 90 properties that were seized later, each time it has brought people the impact and shock of the concept of wealth.
Who else can remember what the two of them looked like before they transformed?
Zhang Ting was previously known as the "Dimple Beauty". The energetic girl she played in "Joking about Qianlong" made many post-80s generations miss it endlessly.
Love Through Time and Space has broadened the horizons of many post-90s generations, and Zhang Ting in the TV series shows a quirky side, which is also impressive.
Lin Ruiyang previously entered the entertainment industry as a director, and when he saw that actors could get paid well, he decided to fully transform into an actor.
When Lin Ruiyang was young, he was handsome and tall. Perhaps due to the superiority of external conditions, he did achieve some things at first.
After the 95 version of "A Curtain of Dreams" was broadcast, the reputation was very good, and Lin Ruiyang also became popular for his excellent actor performance.
His career was thriving, his love was smooth sailing, and he soon tied the knot with an actress. After getting married, they welcomed a pair of lovely children, which made the family more full of warm and happy atmosphere.
However, there are many actresses who are quite good-looking in the workplace, and Zhang Ting is one of them.
At that time, they had cooperated in filming film and television dramas, but there were rumors about the two in the outside world.
In the midst of conflicting opinions, Zhang Ting was accused of meddling in other people's marriages, but she insisted that she did not do so.
For this reason, she held a press conference and said with tears in her eyes that she had been bullied by everyone.
The audience does not know what exactly happened.
However, Lin Ruiyang's marriage ended in divorce, and his ex-wife directly claimed that Zhang Ting was a third party in the article.
A few years later, Zhang Ting and Lin Ruiyang's marriage became a well-known fact, which fully shows that the rumors at that time were not unfounded.
Their behavior has made Taiwanese audiences feel ashamed, making it difficult for them to move forward on the road of acting.
They eventually came to Shanghai in search of a new way out.
Both have a deep desire for wealth and constantly experience setbacks in their investments until TST opens the door to riches for them.
Zhang Ting and his wife have gone through the process of going from ordinary people to famous actors and then to wealthy people, and they are unscrupulous on the road of wealth accumulation.
However, the Empire State Building they built will not last long by relying on deception and lies.
Eventually, they will be eaten by money, and this is because they have been hovering on the edge of the law.
So far, no matter what the outcome, they have long lost their image and credibility in the minds of the audience.
The ancients once said: A person who seeks his own interests at the expense of others is a profiteer.
All those who only look out for their own interests and do not think about others will eventually face the rewards they deserve. Karma, reincarnation cycle, people are watching the day when they are doing things, and retribution is just that the time has not yet come.
