This incident was a story from seventeen years ago, but now I still feel it is vivid in my mind when I think about it. Many people fall into pyramid schemes not because of their big dreams, but because they believe in friends, and this belief is disappointed by their friends.

That year I worked in Jimo, Qingdao. I was in a farmer's workshop. I remember that they had undertaken the processing of parts of Haier refrigerators. They reprocessed the butt cutting of the semicircular arc iron tool stamped on the lathe through a simple turning method, and then they had to ensure that the thread was tightly matched.

At the beginning, because I had some false myopia, my work efficiency was not as good as other colleagues in the same industry. Later, the boss of the workshop said he would take me to match glasses. I thought I was going to a regular place to match glasses, but he drove me to a market in Jimo and asked me to choose at a street stall. I remember it seemed like it was a pair of five yuan or ten yuan per pair.

Later, I saw it clearly, and my work efficiency improved and I soon became an excellent turning worker. The key to whether you can have work efficiency lies in two aspects: one is the skill of grinding the turning tool, and the other is the material of the iron and the right fixing the turning tool.

I worked like this for a year, and during this period, people from my hometown also came to me, injecting fresh strength into this workshop.

Before the end of the year, I said that I would be rewarded based on the ability of the last month. I worked very hard that month and I expected to be the first place. However, the little boss was so lazy that he could not count our actual output. Then he took it for granted that the output of the previous month as the basis for ranking, which made me feel depressed to second place.

The reason why I was frustrated last month was not that I didn’t work hard, but that the boss of the workshop took it for granted that we exchanged the turning machine with each other, which seriously interfered with our work efficiency, especially that I changed to a problem turning machine, and my turning machine was broken again.

Later, after I changed back, I became more efficient. However, after becoming the first place, the boss's sister and brother-in-law asked me to go to the room to rest, saying that I was too efficient and too tired, and then watched others catch up.

Therefore, these realistic contradictions made me very tired and I planned to change jobs. But I still improved my efficiency in the last month, surpassing others a lot, and my estimated salary should be more than 3,000 or more.

Later at the end of the year, I told the boss that if I settled everything for me, I would definitely come next year. If I couldn’t, I wouldn’t come.

The big boss was the head of their family. He was willing to believe me when he heard what I said, so he urged me to settle the settlement. But his wife shouted loudly, you have settled for Lao Zhao like this, he won’t come next year, so you will chop off your head. His son, the little boss, also opposed his father's decision on the grounds that the accounts were too messy and had no time to calculate.

At that time, I felt a chill. I was a person who did what I said, even if I suffered losses.

At this time, a friend who had been studying technology in Qingdao before called again and said that he was already working in Tianjin and worked in logistics. He followed the car to deliver goods every day, and easily earned about 4,000 yuan a month.

I am a little moved, I earn more than I am tired and exhausted, and I hate my current job more and more. But after I got to know it, I found that the salary of delivery workers in regular recruitment channels is not high, usually below one thousand, which makes me doubt his words. However, I was extremely disappointed with this workshop in Wangjia Village, Jimo, so I decided to take a risk and give it a try.

After the Chinese New Year, Jimo's little boss's sister and brother-in-law drove to our village to pick us up. Before he arrived, I set off for Tianjin. Later, the head of the workshop called me but I didn't answer, or I hung up without paying attention to it. I would rather lose than break my promise. However, the two apprentices I took over were taken.

Then they served them together with a young man from Pingdu, but later the boss had a business disagreement with his sister and brother-in-law, so his sister and brother-in-law were separated. Then after his operation, the small workshop went bankrupt in less than half a year. I heard that the father and son had a physical battle for this.

Yes, except for those who work hard like me, everyone else is cutting corners. With me here, they are willing to treat me as a backbone leader and work hard. If I am not there, they can show their magical powers across the sea.

After I arrived in Tianjin, I called my friend, and my friend said I would come over immediately, but thirty minutes passed and there was still no sign of my friend. At this time, some people who were soliciting customers said, "Young man, have you been fooled?" There are many pyramid schemes here.

Just as they were arguing whether it was a pyramid scheme, my friend finally came over on a motorcycle with a tent, picked up my luggage, took me on another convertible motorcycle and left. But what’s strange is that it is getting farther and farther away from the logistics park, and it is becoming more and more remote. I asked my friend why he is moving towards the countryside?

My friend's eyes flashed a little, but he still said calmly that the place they live in the countryside and came to the logistics park when they were working, and it happened to be time to rest today.

I didn't agree, but I didn't question it in person. I thought that since I came, I would be at peace. I came to a village and then walked around to a yard. He knocked on the door and heard someone ask inside, "Who is that?"

My friend said it was me.

Hearing this familiar voice, the person inside opened the yard door and then he took me into a room. When I entered the room, I found that there was no bed. There were a layer of plastic blocks on the ground, and in the direction of the bedroom, there were neatly folded quilts after quilt.

At this time, I have basically confirmed that this is indeed a pyramid scheme den. However, I haven't experienced it before, so I just want to experience it.

At night, my friends also stayed here, and everyone slept on the same floor with their own quilts. But the next day my friend left on the excuse of something, and then a stranger was accompanying me.

This is actually their routine. The person who accompanied me chose strangers to avoid some conflicts. He guided you and took you out for a walk. It seemed unintentional, but in fact he was willing to lead you to their class.

In class, I heard their courses. These people were very enthusiastic about listening to the class, and the tutors were also enthusiastic about the explanation. The whole process created a relatively harmonious and caring atmosphere. However, after listening to a class, they will also evaluate you, and then take you to visit and contact some supervisors and others to evaluate you.

Of course, before getting in touch with these supervisors, they will shape the personal stories and success stories of these supervisors, making you feel that they are already very powerful. The so-called assessment is just a few simple questions, and then induce you to get into the trap of their thinking in this process.

However, what really touched me was that these children at the bottom had their own bitter past. They would rather wait for the dream of poverty here than wake up from this state.
