On the way to the city bureau by car, Wu Duan said, "Do you know about the pyramid marketing organization?"
"Let's have a principle with foreign Ponzi schemes" "It's all about cheating money, but MLM is more simple and crude.
Yan Sixian made a "listen" expression, and Wu Duan continued: "The Ponzi scheme at least has a simple algorithm model, which uses the money invested by the participants in the later stage to meet the high investment profits of the participants in the early stage, and erects successful investment cases, so as to make more people jealous and fooled.
At present, most of the MLM organizations in China are white wolves with empty gloves, and once people enter the organization, they will be detained by the organization, and the organization has many ways to make members pay money. ” Yan Sixian asked, "How does restricting personal freedom for the purpose of obtaining property feel like kidnapping?"
” "That's where we come to the factions of the MLM organization."
"Also assigned" "Well, the southern and northern factions."
Yan Sixian wanted to laugh a little, but held back, Wu Duan continued: "The Northern faction is more similar to the kidnapping you said, they illegally restrict the personal freedom of the members of the organization, and they also use violence at every turn.
The southern school is different, mainly brainwashing, making you feel how good the organization is, how to make money from the projects brought to you by the organization, and making you willing to invest money.
The police have organized several crackdowns against pyramid schemes and smashed some pyramid scheme dens, but the members of the rescued organizations not only did not appreciate it, but also scolded the police, saying that the police had destroyed their spiritual paradise. ” Yan Sixian pouted, "It's quite terrifying." ” Wu Duan continued: "A few years ago, there were also cases of pyramid schemes in the north and south in other provinces, but in the past two years, the northern faction has gradually declined, and some have begun to transform into the southern faction, and some MLM organizations that integrate the characteristics of the north and south have appeared. ” Yan Sixian snorted, "I understand, I don't know if we're dealing with the southern faction or the northern party this time, I know the media where the two reporters work." ” "Oh" "An online media, doing news, was taken off the shelves for some reason some time ago, and I also drank with their boss" "You're still comforting," Wu Duan said he couldn't see it.
"I won't, money will."
Yan Sixian smiled slyly, "I invested some money, which can be regarded as helping them survive this crisis."
At that time, the owner of this media also swore that he would make a big news when he rebroadcast, and I advised him to take it easy and not be stopped broadcasting. ” "The big news is that this is an in-depth MLM organization," Wu Duan asked.
"Maybe, I didn't ask in detail," Yan Sixian said: "I just told you, I won't show up later, I don't want my business partners to know that I'm a policeman, after all, not everyone is willing to talk about my journey as a policeman, it's too troublesome."
"Okay, then you can go to the small conference room later."
Office of the Criminal Investigation Detachment.
A middle-aged fat man anxiously told Wu Duan about the details of the employee's disappearance.
"Before, our program was off the air, and recently there was finally hope for a rebroadcast, and the authorities above finally relented, so I asked the staff to work hard for a month, collect more news materials, and the first episode of the rebroadcast must be eye-catching, at least worthy of the fans who have waited for us for so long This is the director of the news department, and she found out about the disappearance.
The middle-aged fat man introduced the woman on the side.
The woman took over and said: "After the topic selection meeting, several general directions were determined, everyone collected materials in groups, MLM is not our key topic, after all, it is a bit sensitive, so the person who followed up on this topic is not a special reporter, but a joker, named Liu Jianwei, plus a new intern, named Su Ming."
What I mean, let them find material on the Internet, make up some jokes, if the material is particularly good, just make a short drama, who knows that they went to the MLM organization to make an unannounced visit.
I hadn't come to work for two days, the phone couldn't get through, and we were all crazy and looking for people everywhere.
The phone finally got through just now, and I asked where it was, but I didn't say anything, just said that there was a good project to invest in, and let them send money.
Isn't this just falling into the hands of MLM organizations?
Hurry up and save them, this young man, if something happens, how can I explain to their family. ” As she spoke, the female supervisor's eyes reddened.
Wu Duan asked, "Is there only one person talking to you or are both of them talking?"
"Just one, it's Liu Jianwei who is talking to me."
"How was he feeling at the time?"
"It's calm."
"Then did you ask Su Ming about the situation?"
"I asked, Liu Jianwei said that they were both fine, let me rest assured, by the way, there was someone next to him when he called, and I heard someone urging him to hang up the phone, it was a man."
Although the female supervisor had red eyes, she was a strong woman after all, and she cried and did not forget her business, and continued to state to the police: "This is Liu Jianwei's work notebook, there is a schedule in the computer, judging from the schedule, the two did plan to enter the MLM organization the day before yesterday, and the most important thing after exploring it is this" The female supervisor opened Liu Jianwei's work notebook, found the last page, and pointed to the phone number marked "Brother Zhao" on it.
"This is called Brother Zhao, and I don't know where they got people's phone numbers, it seems that Brother Zhao is a small leader of the MLM organization, and they want to join the MLM organization through this Brother Zhao.
We didn't dare to call rashly, comrade police, hurry up and save them. ” Wu Duan turned the notebook and affirmed first: "It's right not to call, let's start the case and investigate."
Don't worry, after all, Liu Jianwei and Su Ming are prepared, which is a good thing. ” "That," the middle-aged man said, "see if there's anything else we can do to help." ” "Have you informed Liu Jianwei and Su Ming's families?"
asked Wu Duan.
"No, I can't explain it to anyone."
"Okay, I know, then let's notify," Wu Duan said: "Go back, I'll inform you as soon as there is any progress."
Pay attention to confidentiality, I know that you are the media yourself and have experience in journalism, but this matter must be kept secret for the time being, for the safety of Liu Jianwei and Su Ming's lives, you can do it."
"Understand," the middle-aged man nodded repeatedly, "We're definitely not joking with the safety of our colleagues." ” After the two left, Wu Duan hung up the mobile phone that had been on the phone with Yan Sixian.
Yan Sixian returned to the office of the first group of serious cases and asked Wu Duandao, "What are your plans?"
"A few years ago, Mocheng did not find a pyramid scheme organization, so there is no similar experience in handling cases, now that we have, we are not cowardly, the principle is zero tolerance for pyramid schemes.
If they dare to restrict the personal freedom of the members of the organization, they are waiting to be punished.
However, it is still necessary to ensure the personal safety of the victim as the first priority.
Let's check this Brother Zhao who brought the two into the MLM organization first, and following him to find out the MLM organization is the fastest way" Wu Duan took out the business card of Xiao Wang, an anti-pyramid marketing volunteer, "Of course, there is another person who may be able to help." ”:
