Who is lying?
Recently, the social e-commerce platform "Qimido" posted on its official WeChat official account and official Weibo, saying, "At 17:45 Beijing time on December 3, 2019, at 10:45 Beijing time, at 10:45 German time, Chimeido officially rings the bell and goes public in Munich, Germany (Stock Exchange), Germany, and logs into the international capital market."
Then, some netizens questioned the authenticity of the news on Weibo, Baidu Tieba, etc., saying that the stock code and stock name were not announced in the above text, and stocks with related words such as "Qimido" could not be searched on the Munich Stock Exchange in Germany, and suspected that Chimeido was "fake listing". At the same time, news such as Chimedo's suspected pyramid schemes and the sale of original shares to members has also been spread on the Internet.
Industrial and commercial data shows that the main body of Chimedo is Chimedo Tangshan Order Business Co., Ltd., which was established in June 2019. According to the company's official information, on May 28, Chimedo social e-commerce was launched, with more than one month of registration, with a monthly increase of 200%, becoming a dark horse in the social e-commerce industry.
On December 11, Chimedo issued an announcement stating: "Some institutions and individuals spread false information about our company and guide public opinion, maliciously slander, slander and slander our company, which has had serious adverse effects on our company."
listing suspicion
Time Finance repeatedly checked the German stock market information, and there was no stock on the Munich Stock Exchange in Germany that involved related words such as "Chimedo".
Chimedo member Wang Wei (pseudonym) told Time Finance that some Chimedo personnel disclosed the company stock code to members is "JT9". Time Finance found that JT9 is actually a company called "Euro Asia Premier Real Estate Company Limited" (hereinafter referred to as "Euro Asia No. 1 Real Estate"), not Chimedo. Pei Hongtao, the legal representative and founder of Chimedo, told Time Finance that Chimedo was listed in Germany by being acquired by Eurasia No. 1 Real Estate. Hu Quan, the major shareholder of Chimedo, is already a director of Eurasia No. 1 Real Estate.
However, Chimedo said that the acquisition agreement is inconvenient to be announced and can only announce some listing cooperation agreements. The documents provided by
Qimetor show that the agreement is actually an agreement between Eurasia First Real Estate and Hu Quan, the largest shareholder and actual controller of Chimedo, and not with Chimedo. According to the official website of Eurasia First Real Estate, on December 4, Eurasia First Real Estate mentioned that the acquisition of Chimedo has been completed.
According to the official website information, Eurasia No. 1 Real Estate is a real estate development company registered in the British Virgin Islands, and has real estate projects in Shandong and other regions. Eurasia No. 1 Real Estate was listed on on , Frankfurt Stock Exchange in Germany on May 26, 2010, Beijing time, with an issue price of 5 euros.
Time Finance checked the stock price of Eurasia First Real Estate and found that after listing, Eurasia First Real Estate's stock price has risen for several months, but has fallen since 2011. By the close of June 2 this year, the stock price was only 0.5 euros. On December 3, after Chimedo announced its listing in Munich, the stock price of Eurasia No. 1 Real Estate rose significantly. By December 12, the share price was 3.5 euros.
According to the investment community information, Eurasia No. 1 Real Estate is a wholly-owned company established by Shandong Xinjianye Group overseas. However, industrial and commercial information shows that Shandong Xinjianye Group's business license was revoked in 2013 and is currently listed as a "broken trustworthy enterprise".
suspected of pyramid schemes?
is a e-commerce platform that is really successful in listing, and why are members so concerned about it?
Chimeduo member Wang Wei told Time Finance that he is not an ordinary e-commerce member and he also bought Chimeduo original shares worth hundreds of thousands of yuan. All the money is frozen in it at present. When the relevant personnel sold him the original Chimedo stock, they said that the stock could increase dozens or 100 times and could cash out as soon as it was listed. Now Chimedo has released the news of its listing, but the relevant personnel said that it will take 6 months to cash out. Wang Wei felt that he had been deceived by Qimeiduo and was very anxious.
In the past two days, some members expressed their willingness to acquire Chimedo's original shares at a discount of 7.5%.Wang Wei suspected: "Does these original stocks only be traded internally?"
Wang Wei's worries are not redundant. When Wang Wei bought the original shares, he bought them online, but only transferred money to the online, and did not sign legal documents such as equity agreements. If Qimei has too much debt, Wang Wei may have no choice. , like Wang Wei, is in a state of anxiety, and there are many members of Chimedo.
This is not the first time Chimedo has made members so upset. Wang Wei said that since it was launched at the end of May, Chimedo has changed its gameplay and rules many times, and later stopped withdrawing money, only entering but not leaving.
htmlOn May 28, Wang Wei went to Tangshan to attend the online press conference of Chimedo. After registering Chimedo, he spent 399 yuan to become the "store owner". At the beginning, we exchanged cash for electronic coins, used electronic coins to purchase designated goods, and withdrew cash in 10 days. When the "situation" was good at the beginning, you could make a profit by 6 rounds.Chimedo's system is suspected to have characteristics such as "pulling people" and "group remuneration". Wang Wei is the lowest-level member of Qimeiduo, and he has several levels of online launches, including "intermediate", "senior", and "director". Every time Wang Wei buys, he can draw dividends from several of his online purchases. In order to have a higher income, Wang Wei himself also "grabbed people". For this reason, he also paid for his own money to register many accounts.
Chimedo also "sells" original shares to members, and the original shares can be purchased in electronic coins or cash. A group of members purchased the original shares in August.
At the same time, Chimedo once again "sells" original shares to members. Wang Wei bought hundreds of thousands of yuan of original shares of Chimedo before October 20.
Pei Hongtao denied that Chimeduo had problems such as pyramid schemes and the issuance of original shares. Regarding the issue of the original shares, Pei Hongtao told Time Finance, "The original shares were given to members for free based on the points, consumption, etc. of the members, and the members did not spend money."
The tree has deep roots?
It is worth noting that many Qimeiduo promotional materials and group chat records obtained by Time Finance from its members show that Qimeiduo basically conducts activities online and offline in the name of Hanqi Technology (Tangshan) Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Hanqi Technology").
cannot see the relationship between these two companies from the aspects of legal person, shareholders, equity, etc. Chimei also told Time Finance in many ways that these are two independent companies. However, in the German listing information released by Chimedo, the organizer also listed the names of two companies, Chimedo and Hanqi Technology. The content released by Qimeido and Hanqi Technology's official WeChat account are also basically synchronized.
A promotional information about Hanqi Technology obtained from members shows that Hanqi Technology has three major businesses: maker new retail, social e-commerce, and offline chain stores, among which social e-commerce refers to Chimedo.
promotional information shows that Hanqi Technology's offline chain store refers to the "Yumintang" Youth Vision Care Center.However, according to a report by Bohai Rim News Network in July this year, Tangshan Yumintang Youth Vision Care Center may have problems such as false propaganda. Bohai Rim News Network said that the institution claims that using traditional Chinese medicine therapy without injections, medication, and surgery can help children recover their vision and take off their glasses in the short term. Mr. Zhang, a citizen of Tangshan, signed a contract with the store and paid 13,000 yuan. The store promised that his vision could recover to 1.0 and he could take off his glasses, but now he has been treated more than 30 times, and the child's vision has not met expectations.
Customer service staff of Tangshan Yumintang Youth Vision Care Center told Bohai Rim News reporter that Yumintang Youth Vision Care Center is an offline direct store of Hanqi Technology (Tangshan) Co., Ltd.
In addition, Wang Wei, the actual controller of Qimeiduo, is also the actual controller of Zhongding Hengfa IoT Technology Co., Ltd., a pyramid scheme company. Time Finance verified the industrial and commercial information and found that the names of the actual controllers of the two companies were indeed "Hu Quan".
On April 15 this year, the State Administration for Market Regulation announced typical cases of law enforcement of the "100-day Action", one of which was the "Shandong Province Mengyin County investigation and punishment of Zhongding Hengfa IoT Technology Co., Ltd. (Tianjin) organized and planned the online pyramid scheme Yuzu Liquid."
The case stated that the Mengyin County Market Supervision Bureau, together with the Mengyin County Public Security Bureau, investigated and dealt with Zhongding Hengfa IoT Technology Co., Ltd. (Tianjin)’s suspected sales of Yuzu Liquid health supplies through online pyramid schemes. The parties have established an 8d56 mall member business office system through the Internet and developed members on the website in accordance with the formulated bonus system. To become a member, you must purchase Yuzu liquid products ranging from 3,000 to 99,000 yuan for the parties through the 8d56 mall member business office system, and become six levels of members: silver card, gold card, diamond card, first-level franchisee, two-star franchisee, and Samsung franchisee, and obtain the qualification to join and develop other personnel to join. Members then develop members layer by layer to form an up-down relationship. The performance of the first generation and the following three generations is calculated and paid online remuneration, and their behavior constitutes organizational planning and online pyramid schemes. From July 2017 to April 2018, the parties have developed 1,000 members in the above-mentioned way, forming 15 levels among members, with member investment of 20.05 million yuan, expenditure of 12.03 million yuan, and balance of 8.01 million yuan. At present, the company has been cancelled.
When asked why Chimeduo had 5 million registered users in more than a month after it was launched, Pei Hongtao said that Chimeduo was formerly a direct sales company, but because it was difficult to apply for a direct sales license in recent years, it has been transformed into social e-commerce. During the transformation, the company brought its original old customers to Chimedo. When asked about the name of the direct sales company, Pei Hongtao told Time Finance, "I entered the company late and I don't know the name of the company." (Beijing Time Finance George)
