Future Network, Beijing, June 18 (Reporter Ling Meng) "Husbands work in other provinces, they are not at home all year round, they have not been in contact with the outside world. They have been deceived into the MLM organization. Flowers were blinded, and wanted to make a fortune -hearted dream, and believed in her ghost words ... "In a handwritten report letter, Ms. Liu, a full -time mother of the post -90s, described her experience.

Recently, Tianjin Shanghe Health Products Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Tianjin Shanghe"), a subsidiary of Direct Sales Giant, has existed an act of developing full -time mothers to make offline. It is worth noting that this is not the first time that Shanghe Group has been in the question of "suspected MLM". In recent years, the behavior of Shang He's "bottomless line", false propaganda, and illegal operations have been reported on the Internet.

In the future, the reporter from the Internet reported to the relevant person in charge of Shanghe on the Internet and verified that no response has been received.

According to Ms. Liu, Tianjin Shanghe's development offline package is divided into five levels: 16,800 yuan, 58,000 yuan, 98,000 yuan, 138,000 yuan, and 168,000 yuan. "I was talked about by various words of words, bought more than 10,000 yuan, and only eat their products when I came back. If you do n’t eat anything, you can eat the product when you are hungry. Later, I realized that they were all hungry and thin.

From Ms. Liu's handwritten letter, future network reporters found that after brainwashing by Tianjin Shanghe's weight loss products, she went to Shenyang, Tianjin and other places and continued to be "brainwashed". "First of all, they eat these products who are thin, and give (we) to eat, (also take us) to see how large the company is."

Ms. Liu also said that her online introduction is that the Shanghe Group has offline in various provinces, cities, counties, and towns across the country. It is a huge organization that involves huge funds.

In fact, Ms. Liu, who was trapped in Tianjin Shanghe's "quagmire". Ms. Zhang from Shanxi told Future Network reporters that in September 2019, after being attracted by the "98 yuan package reduction 10 catties" banner on the street stores, she went in and learned about it. Essence

"After buying a 98 yuan weight loss product, they were extremely enthusiastic about me. After learning that I had no work, I invited me to go to work with them. I said that the operation was simple and it was easy to make money." Ms. Zhang said.

However, at the end of 2020, after investing in more than 100,000 yuan and hoarding a large number of health products, Ms. Zhang realized that Tianjin Shanghe set up a scam, which was essentially suspected of pyramid scheme.

Ms. Zhang said that after being fooled by Shang He, she accumulated a lot of health products. (Photo confession in the respondent)

Ms. Zhang told Future Network reporters that the way of developing "offline" in Tianjin can be roughly divided into four steps: the first step, take you to the store of the health museum to experience, talk about family often, ask the cold and warm, and understand the family situation; the second step, the second step, It is promised to invest thousands of yuan to make money, and persuade you to send a circle of friends to promote. The more friends who pull, the more you earn; the third step, you can open the shop and tell you that you can make money while opening the shop and make money; the fourth step, the meeting, the meeting Learning, in fact, is brainwashing, listening to the "successful people" of Shanghe Group, which listened to the annual salary of hundreds of thousands and million, and advised you to follow up and develop offline.

Ms. Zhang said that Tianjin Shanghe's agency level is divided into five levels, namely first -level franchisees, second -level store managers, third -level deputy store chiefs, 4th -level Huanyu ambassador, and five -level double diamonds.

"The investment amount of level to three levels is about 100,000 yuan, 228,000 yuan, and 1 million yuan, respectively." Ms. Zhang said that Ms. Zhang said that it has not been exposed to it, so it is not clear.

It is worth noting that in a video provided by Ms. Zhang, a spacious conference room content was hundreds of people, and there were no seats. "This is our daily" brainwashing "meeting. There are few dozens of people and thousands of people. After each 'brainwashing' meeting, a large number of people will follow up."

In the future, the reporter learned that according to the "Opinions on Several Issues on Applicable Laws of Criminal Cases of MLM Activities" issued by the Supreme People's Court and the Supreme People's Procuratorate in 2013, Article 1 Those who are above people and levels are above three or higher, and the organizers and leaders should be held criminally responsible for the organizers and leaders. "

In the eyes of many people in the industry, the multi -level "pull -by -heading" development of Tianjin Shanghe has been suspected of MLM. A anti -MLM person pointed out that the main basis for defining whether MLM is currently defined: whether there are more than 3 layers of team rewards, whether there is a profitable profit, or a brainwashing meeting. It is not difficult to see that these three items seem to be involved.

On the afternoon of June 17, the future network reporter called the Shanghe business model of consumers, including the development of "La Ren" to call the relevant person in charge of Shanghe Company, and sent an interview letter to the contact mailbox published by Shanghe's official website, but as of press time Before, I did not receive any response from Shanghe. Direct selling giant Shang He has named 222 primary schools

Public information shows that Shanghe Group was founded in Los Angeles in 1978 and entered the Chinese market in 1993. After that, it invested 10 million US dollars to establish Tianjin Shanghe. According to the management information system of the Ministry of Commerce, Shanghe obtained a direct sales license in 2007. The direct sales area covers Tianjin, Hebei, Shanxi and other regions. Direct sales products include 12 types of health foods, cosmetics, health equipment, cleaning supplies, etc. Essence

The public data released by the World Direct Sales (China) Research Center showed that in 2017, Shanghe's sales performance reached 10 billion yuan, an increase of 30%year -on -year. It successfully entered the 10 billion performance club and ranked fifth in the national direct sales industry.

Facing the name of the "Direct Sales Giant", Shang He repeatedly extended the tentacles to the illegal boundary of MLM.

As early as 2016, Shang He charged a series of issues such as "entry fees", multi -level direct sales suspected illegal, illegal regulations, and engaging in direct sales activities, which were exposed by multiple media. To this day, Shanghe gradually drifted in the gray area. Earlier, a QQ rights protection group manager with nearly 600 group members said in an interview with Xinhua News Agency Finance and Economics Weekly that the group was mainly used to expose the behavior of Shanghe's suspected MLM. The beauty and health project of Shanghe lost tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands.

Ms. Zhang also told Future Network reporters that after many people were brainwashed by Shang He, they could be forced to develop their relatives and friends into offline, and some people even ended up their wives. Ms. Zhang also suffered from suffering in this brainwashing scam of Shang He, and had a problem with physical and mental health.

On the one hand, it developed offline in a bottomless line, and on the other side, Shang He had started public welfare. It is reported that in 2014, Shanghe established the Shanghe Public Welfare Foundation. However, its proud public welfare cause is also questioned.

According to the future report, in November 2021, more than 500 "volunteers" from all over the country gathered a primary school in Huangpo Town, Wuchuan City, Guangdong Province, and held the unveiling ceremony of "Shanghe Liu Yujie Primary School". Before the unveiling ceremony, dozens of "volunteers" also came to the home -assisted students 'homes to conduct "warm heart home visits", and "group photo" in the support of the students' homes.

It is reported that most of these "volunteers" are Shanghe's dealers. And this "celebration ceremony" mainly stems from a set of public welfare models of Shanghe's independence: After the dealer reaches a certain level, he can get the qualifications to support the construction of public welfare primary schools with the company, and become a "caring brand operator", and " Enterprise+individual "named the donated elementary school. The official website of Shanghe shows that as of now, primary schools named after the "Shanghe Enterprise Name+Donor" have reached 222 in China and 22 provinces.

Wang Zhen, a professor of litigation law of China University of Political Science and Law, said in an interview with Future Network reporters that enterprises should be encouraged to carry out public welfare activities and bear social responsibility. However, public welfare projects involving minors, in terms of the design and publicity of public welfare activities, should be limited.

Mr. Song, the parent of the students of Haidian District, Beijing, told Future Network reporters, "There are Yuan Longping, a little far away from money, and Deng Jiaxian. The names of these scientists do not have a crown school; so many world champions and Olympic champions in the sports industry have no championship schools. The direct sales leader of direct selling companies went to the name of the school, and named more than 200 primary schools! What kind of values ​​do you want to pass to our elementary school students? "

It is worth noting that before, the future reporters have repeatedly repeatedly named "Shang He's name at school, is it approved by the relevant education department?" Take a group photo. ', Will the self -esteem of funding from being funded to be harmed? "The interview with the relevant person in charge of the interview and sent an interview letter, but as of now, no response has been obtained.
