Chapter 218 Liar Company
After listening to the words of these two women, Chen Feng roughly guessed what was going on. It's nothing more than a trick to defraud job applicants of their money.
This phenomenon has always existed. Those with some conscience will only cheat for registration fees, information fees, file fees, etc., ranging from dozens to one or two hundred yuan.
Although there are not many people who can earn tens or hundreds of dollars per person, when there are more people applying for the job, it is common to easily earn tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands in a few days.
And this is a long-term business. As long as you publish recruitment advertisements in newspapers and on the Internet, the investment is not large, but the revenue is huge. You can make long-term money from long-term recruitment from the beginning to the end of the year.
Those who are more sinister will further demand to pay training fees, clothing fees, make-up fees and other various purposeful expenses, which can easily cost hundreds or even thousands, and they will earn even more.
Of course, there is also a probability issue. Generally speaking, there are dozens or even hundreds of applicants who are eager to find a job, especially those who have just graduated from the workplace. Basically, they will be fooled. After all, the money is not much, and if they don’t pay it, they will definitely lose the job. Only if you submit it will you have a chance.
However, if the money is large, hundreds or even thousands, the average applicant will not be foolish enough to hand it over. After all, for ordinary applicants, this money is a bit much, and they will definitely hesitate. Most people just give up.
It is not that easy to defraud so much money through simple recruitment methods.
So, modeling companies or cultural media companies like this have started to recruit models, and they have deceived young and inexperienced girls by giving them model photo albums. way to cheat.
This is due to the particularity of the modeling industry. In other industries, the success rate of candidates who have to pay so much money is very low, but in the modeling industry, the success rate is very high.
The so-called model card is a model card, which contains the model's photo and basic information, such as stage name, age, height, weight, measurements, shoe size, etc. As a model, this information card is indispensable. Without this If you can't sell yourself well, you won't be able to take orders.
You can get this kind of model card by yourself at a photo studio outside, which can cost up to one or two hundred.
But in these modeling companies, these applicants have paid thousands or even tens of thousands for a set in the past. Many applicants are eager for the modeling companies to introduce modeling work to make money. Coupled with some deceptive words from the other party, Fooled.
Of course, the interviewers of the company who are on the scammer’s side also look at the person’s preferences. If they see that you are wearing ordinary clothes, they may pay you a few hundred yuan to take your photo.
When you encounter some more "formalized" companies, they will also officially launch several package services for you to take mockups, mainly three grades: high, medium and low for you to choose from, including indoor and outdoor, etc. Be open, transparent and above board. It can be said that those who are willing take the bait.
You said that you already have a model card, and it looks pretty good, but it is useless. Since the other party wants to defraud you of the money for taking the model card, it is definitely unacceptable. Unless you don’t want to join their company and don’t want them to introduce you to modeling businesses and jobs, you have to pay the money.
The applicant joins their company and is willing to pay for the model card. Of course, he hopes that their company can help introduce him to modeling-related jobs.
If the other party is really a serious model company, the money for the model cards will be paid. After all, the other party can earn back the money by introducing them to one or two big orders. The other party will definitely say the same thing when interviewing you, so many girls are so tempted and fooled.
Unfortunately, generally, modeling companies that charge this kind of money are not serious companies. They are only responsible for defrauding model cards of money. Of course, they will not do anything like introducing models to work, or they will not focus their main energy on it. on top of this.
This kind of deceptive scheme has been flourishing in recent years. Many young girls who want to make easy money as models have been deceived and deceived. There has never been any serious exposure in the media. Only occasionally someone exposed the news on the Internet, but the impact is not big. After all, the modeling industry is still relatively niche compared to the public. Some people even called the police, but it was not very effective.
The reason is very simple. The other party and the applicant have a "fair, just and open" transaction from the beginning. The applicant pays, and the model company provides "photography services" to the applicant. The price is informed to you in advance, and the details are I also tell you what kind of template card is produced, so there is no fraud in this service, and the money is paid "willingly" by the applicants.
And before the other party arranges for you to take a mockup, they will usually sign a "photography contract" with you, which is very formal.
Therefore, it is difficult for applicants to win over the model agency from a legal perspective and get their money back. And companies like them have an effective fraud process and emergency response plan. Basically, they all commit crimes in groups, each performing his own duties and cooperating in a tacit understanding.
You can deceive people here in this city for as long as you can. In the end, if you don’t get deceived or if things get too big, you will just cancel the company and leave. The building will be empty, and you will need to change places, change cities, and start a new business. The company continues to cheat.
This is also the main reason why this kind of deception has been around for a long time and is still flourishing today.
One makes money quickly, and the other has less legal risks than other scam companies.
Now that these two women came to this scam company to cause trouble, the middle-aged fat man Gu Xin was not afraid at all. He frightened them with just a few words. He had not just encountered this kind of thing today. I don’t know how many times I have encountered him before, and he has a set of effective response plans and words.
No, facing the stubborn girl in front of him, he shook his head and sighed with an old-fashioned look: "You young people, do you really think that modeling business is so easy to find? Do you know How competitive is the model industry? Besides, our company doesn’t just accept any business. We must choose good business and high-priced business. Yes, who was it? , is your senior sister, our company helped her take on the print advertisement of Liya Cosmetics, and it didn’t cost much to shoot one set. It took three days to shoot, and in the end she received 300,000 yuan, which was not a lot. The main thing was to take her The reputation has been built up.”
Gu Xin’s effort really calmed down the scene. Many applicants who were originally doubtful now began to trust this company again.
The main reason is that Gu Xin's expression was very serious and sincere when he spoke, without any hint of lying. And didn't he give examples? Is this still false?
The model Lin Wanqiu he mentioned is not fake, she does exist, and she did shoot a print advertisement for Yali Cosmetics. However, she was only in his company's name, and his company paid It only cost her tens of thousands of yuan in nominal fees.
When his company was promoting to the outside world, although he did not directly push Lin Wanqiu out, he talked about Lin Wanqiu a lot when interviewing candidates, and there was a room in the company dedicated to displaying some photos of Lin Wanqiu. and success stories.
The fraud gang headed by Gu Xin has done quite well in this regard, especially in some details, which is rare.
The reason is of course that Gu Xin and the others want to deceive Xiuzhou one more time, one more time, one more time.
After all, Xiuzhou is one of the largest cities in the country, and the applicants are generally wealthy and willing to spend money.
"You two come to the office with me. I will communicate with you carefully and eliminate unnecessary misunderstandings."
Gu Xin calmed down the scene and immediately greeted The two women went to the office, intending to provide the necessary comfort and minimize the impact of the incident. He has dealt with this situation many times before. His purpose is to continue to deceive if he can, and to delay if he can. If it doesn't work, he will find a way to introduce one or two small orders to them. This can be true or false. It's nothing more than letting them put on some new clothes, the photographer takes a few photos of them, and then gives them two to three hundred yuan at most, saying that some businesses will use their photos.
In this way, they can be temporarily appeased, and it should not matter if they wait for another ten days and a half. If their company is still open by then, the same routine can be used again and again. Until they cancel the company and run away.
After Chen Feng watched the whole process, none of the girls who filled out the forms left, which made Chen Feng speechless. Are all young girls today so easy to fool?
However, if you really want to say it, you can’t blame them. One is that the professional quality of Gu Xin and his group is very high. In addition, they deliberately hired "famous models" to speak for themselves and chose this Guomao Building, which makes the office space a bit high-end and the interior of the company is also very well decorated. It's formal, with a director's room, financial room, dressing room, and photo studio, and a dazzling array of clothing and cosmetics. It's hard to believe that this is a fake model company.
"Chen Feng, what do you think of this place? Do you want to take a look again?"
When Gu Xin took the two women to the office, Cai Zhixin quickly asked Chen Feng. He is in urgent need of money and is eager to sell this house.
Chen Feng glanced at him and asked instead, "Do you know this liar?"
After Cai Zhixin was stunned for a moment, he smiled and shook his head and said: "We don't really know each other. It's mainly the relationship between the landlord and the tenant. But I met him twice in a club owned by a friend. We had a few drinks together and chatted for a while. Chat. To charlatans like them, I never meant to have a close relationship. "
Chen Feng nodded and believed what he said. It was obvious that the other party was a well-known local rich second generation, and there was no need to get to know such a dirty charlatan. Not to mention deep intercourse.
The two of them were right here in the office area, openly talking about Gu Liang, and even calling Gu Xin a liar, but they didn’t shut up. Everyone around them heard it, and their expressions changed. . Including staff from those companies.
One of the male staff members immediately said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? Get out of here quickly, you are not welcome here."
Cai Zhixin immediately glared at this person rudely He looked at me and said: "What the hell are you looking for death? This is my house, you tell me to get out, believe it or not, I will find someone to get you all in? Damn it, a liar is a liar, why are you pretending to be in front of me?" Serious person? ”
When Cai Zhixin lost his temper, the liar immediately became silent and became speechless. Can someone who owns such an office building in the local area be a simple person?
At this time, the dozen girls who were still filling out the forms finally reacted.
Three or four girls stood up first, picked up the forms and left, and most of the other girls followed suit and walked towards the door.
They had already suspected that the company was cheating money because of the quarrel between the two women, but later Gu Xin's good talk made them choose to believe it again.
But now a rich second generation like Tsai Chi-Hsin, the landlord of this house, wouldn’t lie to them, right? No matter how stupid you are, after hearing what Chen Feng and Tsai Chi-xin said, you will of course know that this is a scam company.
"Don't leave! Don't leave! Don't listen to their lies. We are a legitimate company and we are definitely not lying."
"Don't leave. Don't regret leaving."
Finally There were three girls left, but they were all crying because they had already paid, and now they regretted it and asked the staff to refund the money to them. Of course the staff didn't want to, so they started arguing with them.
Chen Feng glanced at Cai Zhixin and took the lead out of the model company.
The two walked to the elevator and saw a large group of women waiting for the elevator, so they walked towards the stairs. It was only on the fourth floor anyway.
When he arrived at the large shopping mall on the first floor, Chen Feng stopped, turned around and said to Cai Zhixin: "I bought it here, but there is a condition."
When Cai Zhixin heard this, he quickly said: "What condition? As long as it's not difficult, I can promise you."
Chen Feng said with a serious face: "This premise should be very simple for you, just help call the police and destroy this scammer company. I believe Mr. Cai. you should have this Ability?"
Cai Zhixin looked at him with a strange expression: "This is really not difficult for me, but the other party probably didn't offend you."< br>
Chen Feng said with a smile: "He didn't offend me. But I feel unhappy with these scammers. Moreover, all of them deceived are young and beautiful girls who are eager to find jobs. It is really wicked. ”
Cai Zhixin said with a smile: "It seems that you are also an elegant person. You know how to show mercy to women. Okay, I will help you with this matter. To be honest, I am not happy with these liars. I didn't know they were liars at first. We didn’t find out until the house was rented to them and the contract was signed. These guys were doing a dirty deception. It looked really disgusting. Let’s just deal with it this time. Okay."
Chen Feng nodded and said, "It's settled. We'll sign the contract after this scammer company is destroyed."
"Okay, I'll do it today. Let me help you with this matter. Just wait for my good news."
After Cai Zhixin finished speaking, he left with his female companion without further chatting with Chen Feng.
Sun Xiaorui was looking at Chen Feng with admiration. As soon as they left, she could not help but hug him, with eyes full of admiration and admiration: "Brother Feng, you really have a sense of justice. I I love you so much.”
"Okay. In public." Chen Feng smiled and patted her on the back, "I just did it casually. Since you have the ability to help, just do it. It can be regarded as doing good deeds and accumulating merit."
This is the shopping mall on the first floor, surrounded by Although there were not many people, there were quite a few. Sun Xiaorui was a little embarrassed and quickly let go of Chen Feng and said with a smile: "Brother Feng, you are still better. This move uses your strength. I believe these liars will be punished as they should."< br>
Chen Feng nodded and said nothing.
