I have a cousin whose surname is "Wu", so let's call him "Mr. Wu" here!This happened several years ago.
For a while, Mr. Wu would always call me every three or five times, and every time he called**, he always had some greetings: Have you eaten, what are you doing, have you been busy with work recently, and you usually have a lot of free time... …I felt like he wanted to say something to me, but whenever I asked, he always said it was okay and just asked.
During that time, not only would Mr. Wu call me a lot, but his mother would also call occasionally, which was also some greetings, and seemed to have something to say to me.
For about a whole month, the two of them always hesitated and slurred when they spoke, wanting to talk about things, but they swallowed it halfway through their mouths. Every time I learned something was fragmented and intermittent. It wasn't until a month later that I was able to completely piece together what they wanted to express when they typed me **.
It turned out that Mr. Wu talked about a girlfriend in the field, and at the invitation of his girlfriend, Mr. Wu also went to the field to live and work there. It didn't take long for Mr. Wu to pick up his parents, and the family lived and worked there, which sounded good, safe and usually had a place to take care of, didn't it seem normal?
I asked Mr. Wu what he was doing over there, and he said that he helped out in his girlfriend's relative's factory, mainly doing some logistics work.
It's no problem!
So what do they want me to do when they take turns to call me ** and stop talking?
Finally, Mr. Wu's mother spoke first, she said that Mr. Wu had found a job over there, and asked me to go over and discern how his job was, and let me go to the staff officer.
Isn't it just a logistics job, the whole family is over there, what does this require me to consult?
They must be hiding something from me!
I wasn't going to go there. But they had to let me go over and let me judge how Mr. Wu's work was, and if it was okay, I would continue to do it, and if it didn't work, I would go back.
It's a nice saying, saying that you only need to go for a day, and you can go back after seeing it.
I really can't help it, and it's a relative, so I have to go.
In fact, when they finished speaking, I was full of doubts, and I could roughly guess what Mr. Wu was doing. But it's just speculation, and it's pure speculation. When I got there, it confirmed my suspicions.
I remember it was winter and it was cold. I was far away from where Mr. Wu worked, and I checked it on the map, and the distance was about four or five hundred kilometers.
That morning, before dawn, I drove early and headed north. It wasn't until the afternoon that I arrived at the place where Mr. Wu sent me the location.
I parked my car on the side of the road and called him ** to say I arrived. It wasn't long before he came to me.
Because I was not familiar with the road conditions, I got out of the car and sat in the passenger seat and asked him to drive to where he lived.
Instead of driving from the main road, he went around into the community. This neighborhood is so big, this neighborhood passes through and then another community, and then another community. I said that the community is too big because these communities are all the same, they are all the kind of houses with a total height of 8 floors, the appearance of the house, the layout, and the community environment are all the same, and we have not been able to really go out for a long time in the community. I see that some houses are already numbered in three digits, which shows how many houses there are in this community and how big they are!
Later, I learned that the location of this community was originally a large area of rural and cultivated land, and finally it was demolished and rebuilt, and finally became part of the city. In rural areas, the size of each house is very large, so many families also build many houses, live in one by themselves, and rent out all the rest. The family is basically like this, so most of the residents in this community are rented by outsiders.
Due to the dense density of houses in this rural area at that time, this led to the construction of a large number of houses later. These houses are also built with unified planning and construction, so it looks like every house is the same. Because it's unified.
First, batch construction, a large community has a name, but it is divided into different districts.
The car shuttled between the communities for a long time before arriving at the rented place where Mr. Wu lived.
The house is on the fourth floor, with two bedrooms and one living room, although the decoration is simple, but it is very spacious.
Mr. Wu's mother was also in the house, and she received me warmly, and I was tired of coping with the cold and warmth. I asked Mr. Wu, and he said that his father had gone back two days ago.
Since I didn't eat at noon, Mr. Wu's mother simply cooked some food, and I hurriedly filled my stomach.
After eating, Mr. Wu's mother suggested that we go out for a walk and see the nearby attractions. It's okay at home anyway, so I had to agree.
As soon as I went out, the sun was obscured by dark clouds, and the cold wind was raging, and everyone shivered from the cold. I suggested that I should stay at home. Mr. Wu said, anyway, it came out, and we only went to the neighborhood to wander around.
Helplessly, I followed them around, which is what kind of attractions to visit, they mainly took me to see the local landmarks, introduced the ** of this large and small area, talked about what is different in the community, and talked about local policies or something, it was really boring. Later, I learned that what they showed and talked about was part of their "work", and it was also the "indispensable" knowledge that I was "indispensable" in the future.
In the end, I couldn't stand the cold, and I proposed to go back, and they looked at each other without rebuttal. On the way back, I took out the water cup from the car, and the water in it shook and instantly froze, and it was the first time I saw such a "spectacle".
When I got home, I asked them face-to-face, what the hell was going onIs Mr. Wu's job bad!
I asked again and again, they were silent, and then I pressed them, and they kept silent about their work, and only said that they would know tomorrow.
I'm actually very uncomfortable with them being so secretive.
We finally managed to survive until the next day, we had breakfast early, and Mr. Wu's mother said to the two of us, "Go ahead, I'll be at home, and I'll cook for you at noon!"”
Where are we going?Are you going to Mr. Wu's company to have a look?"I wondered.
I followed Mr. Wu out, what company did he go to. I saw him walk me to the door of the community, whispering to who was **, and I couldn't hear a word of what he said. I only heard him finally say to **: "Then let's go up!."”
Aren't you going to the place where you go to work, where is Mr. Wu taking me?
Following Mr. Wu, we went up to a building and arrived at the door of a house.
He knocked softly, and it opened.
It turned out that there was a family living here, with adults and children.
What are we doing here?"I'm still scratching my head.
Brother, let my leader tell you about it!"Mr. Wu spoke to me.
There was a round table at home, and the three of us, Mr. Wu, and what he called the so-called "leader" sat around the table.
At this time, Mr. Wu handed his "leader" a cigarette. We usually give people cigarettes, and we all give them one, but Mr. Wu gives out four cigarettes at a time, neatly placed in front of the "leader", and he has been doing this for the next few days, and I still can't figure out what this means.
At the beginning, he talked about some family life, **people, the family is all right, what kind of work do you do.... …Before you know it, he brings you to the point and begins to introduce their company, the origin of the company, the background of the company, and the strength of the company.... …The head of the preaching is the Word, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will believe it to be true. In other words, it is mainly about the legitimacy of the company and its strong background.
With my vigilance, how could he give me **, how could I believe his words?Whatever he said, I pretended to accept it, but in fact my heart was as clear as a mirror.
After about an hour, the "leader" finished speaking, and Mr. Wu took me downstairs, thinking that I could go back.
Unexpectedly, he went downstairs and mysteriously began to play **, and asked someone to explain to me and give me **!
I went to three in the morning, three in the afternoon, and two in the evening, and there were eight people talking about the same thing that day.
Isn't this an obvious pyramid scheme?I also confirmed my previous suspicions.
What is this doing, persuading people to get something for nothing, persuading people to develop offline, and persuading people to go down the road of crime and deception?
On the first night, I told Mr. Wu that this was a pyramid scheme, we won't do this work, let's go back!
Mr. Wu didn't care, he didn't say that this work was very good, let me stay tomorrow and listen to what others have to say!
I couldn't convince him, so I stayed with him for another day.
The next day is still the same, do nothing all day long, just make an appointment with someone, and then take me to "listen to the class", as the understanding increases, the higher the level of the "leader", the more in-depth the explanation.
But no one can shake my values, and their "lectures" seem to me to be pure vain.
The next night, I still persuaded Mr. Wu that this job really can't be done, so go back with me!Go back and find a serious job, down-to-earth, isn't it good to be safe and secure?When Mr. Wu heard my words, he began to hesitate, but at this time, Mr. Wu's mother came to persuade me to listen to it tomorrow, I think they said it very well, it is indeed legal and compliant, and there is local policy support, this job has a future!
Ah, when did Mr. Wu's mother also fall into it. I asked Mr. Wu if he had ever taken his mother to the class, and he said yes, only for three days.
A hopeless mother and son!
I took advantage of the time to go out to the toilet and called Mr. Wu's father. Because he's been here for a while, I'd like to know what he thinks about it. I asked him what you think of Mr. Wu's current jobHe said it was fine. I said that this is a pyramid scheme, and it is illegal. But he said that he understood, and he thought he could!
A hopeless family of three.
I've decided to stay here and fight them to the end!
On the third day, I still went to "attend classes". On this day, the level of the "leaders" is significantly higher, from their dress, how they talk they look like "successful people", they say that the reason why they now have no worries about food and clothing is because of the income brought by "work". I almost believed it!
A cool head allows me to distinguish between right and wrong, the common sense of life allows me to see clearly that they are playing tricks, and the basic knowledge allows me to know that they are lying.
There are a lot of people who have given me lectures in the past three days, some are dragging their families, some are single, some are men, some are women, some are from other places, some are local, and even my fellow countrymen, they have nothing to do, and their daily work is to give others "** They seem to have been professionally trained, and it is difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood when they speak, they are full of confidence, and everyone is proud to be engaged in this "job".
They have a lot of evidence to package themselves, they have authoritative documents, authoritative **, and authoritative books to prove that they are indeed legitimate, backed by local policies, to convince me to join them. Of course, there is a price to pay for joining them, and the price is to pay an entrance fee of 50,000 yuan first.
I later learned the reason why Mr. Wu was reluctant to leave.
Mr. Wu's girlfriend took him in, and he paid 50,000 yuan, after which he contacted his classmates, and his classmates also joined. Someone joined, and he, of course, got the "income" he deserved. Now let him leave, won't the 50,000 yuan he paid be wasted?He brought his classmates to join, but he quit, how could he explain to his classmates?
In this way, he kept asking me to "listen to the class", so that I was ** all the time, what does he want to do?
He shouldn't just let me "advise" his work, he wants me to join them and develop me into his next family!
On the evening of the third day, we had a long talk, and he said that I could come to him, and he was happy from the bottom of his heart, and he was grateful to me whether the work was successful or not. I said that since you are grateful to me, you must listen to me and go back with me.
I tried to persuade him again, and he insisted that I go to the class for another day. I can say that he is just indifferent.
When I think back to the past few days, Mr. Wu persuaded me to stay, and Mr. Wu's mother also asked me to attend classes for a few more days. They're really getting to the point of obsession.
Since I can't persuade me, I have my own plans.
Before dawn on the fourth morning, I got up and pretended to go to the bathroom, but in fact I secretly took my things and went straight out, got in the car and left. I called Mr. Wu ** when I got on the highway and told him that I was going back, and everyone was lying to him, hoping that he would stop clinging.
Hearing that I was leaving, he quickly asked me to stop at the nearest service area, and he came to me and went back with me. Of course I was overjoyed to hear it!
Actually, the night before, I had made this plan. Since he won't go, I have to go first. I am older than him, and I am also the person he trusts the most, and I want to make it clear to him by my actions that I will never support him in this matter, and that this is the only way to leave him alone, and that this is the only way to bring him home.
I was waiting for him in the high-speed service area. In less than an hour, Mr. Wu came, and his mother was in the car.
I thought they had packed up and went home with me, but the first time they saw me, they asked me to go back with them for the last day. Their words seemed to have a begging tone.
I couldn't be moved by it, and I stressed once again that the job was a pyramid scheme, and it was impossible to always think that I would get something for nothing. After chatting for two hours, they saw that I was resolute and couldn't say anything more.
Mr. Wu's mother was also idle there, she took my car and went back with me first, and Mr. Wu promised me to go back as soon as possible after taking care of the affairs there.
That's fine, I brought Mr. Wu's mother back first, so that he had no backing and made him feel lonely there, plus I made it clear that Mr. Wu went home in the past few days.
On the way back, I talked a lot with Mr. Wu's mother. I sincerely persuaded her, and she understood. The main reason is that Mr. Wu is the only son in the family, and his parents spoil him like a pearl in the palm of his hand, as long as Mr. Wu likes it, his parents have no opinions and always give full support, which also leads to their family of three falling into it and unable to extricate themselves!
It didn't take long for Mr. Wu to really come back. We met as we were, and neither of us mentioned what was happening in the field. Let time fade away from those unhappy things!
Later, Mr. Wu never went to that city again!
Mr. Wu, this year has passed the year of establishment, and he will get married in a few months, of course, with someone else. Here, I wish him a happy wedding and a hundred years of happiness in advance!
"End".
