"The teacher suddenly notified us that the LEGO class was going to stop! It was too sudden!" The day before yesterday, a reporter from Qianjiang Evening News Hourly News received a leak from a parent in Hangzhou.
This parent said that his child learned Lego at Hangzhou Meiqi Miraculous Imagination International Creative Center Binjiang Xingyaocheng Store . At around 5 pm on December 16, the teacher suddenly sent a message in the group and @ everyone: "Hello parents, recently, due to a series of problems in the company that have not been resolved for a long time, classes have been suspended this week, and the start time is to be determined."
This parent said that he immediately called the store manager after seeing the message.
"The store manager said that the boss had owed their salary for two months, so he decided to suspend classes." The parent said that the child started a few years ago and took classes at the same floor of Meiqimiixiang. Later, my child was almost three years old, and last year I transferred to the Meiqi Miaoxiang International Creative Center next door to learn Lego. "I remember that this store has been open for several years and there are many students coming. I originally had a more comfortable visit."
She said that the institution was still attending classes normally last week, and this happened suddenly that day. "The store manager said that we can help us register and withdraw classes. Parents have registered on site, but they don't know what to do in the future." The reporter contacted a responsible teacher at the Binjiang Xingyaocheng Store of Meiqi Miaoxiang International Creative Center as soon as possible.
This teacher said that they are employees of Hangzhou Baisituo Holding Group Co., Ltd. and have not paid their wages for two months. Monday is a day off. I heard that the salary would be paid on that day (December 16), but when everyone waited in the afternoon, they received the news that the boss could not be found, and everyone's hearts were also cold. In desperation, they could only tell the parents that they would suspend classes.
The teacher said that although they were also victims, they decided to inform the parents of the actual situation and go to the store to check the remaining courses of their children and register. "We can only try our best to do what we can and report the registration to the company."
"We signed up for Meiqimira Lottery Chengdong Branch . On December 17, the teacher also suddenly said that the class was suspended!" Parent Chen's father told reporters that the institution where the child teaches the class is near Xincheng Times Square on Xintang Road . "I heard from the institution that the institution teacher said that they were waiting and watching because the boss said on the evening of December 16 that the institution said that they were waiting and watching. If you want to pay your salary, everyone still wants to persist. Unexpectedly, it didn't pay it on the evening of the 16th. I heard that other stores have also suspended classes, so I told us that classes will be suspended. "
Dad Chen said that not only applied for the Lego courses of Meiqi Miraculousi, but also applied for the courses of the Philippines' martial arts and physical fitness and Haifan Parent-Child Swimming Club. Unexpectedly, all of them were suspended together. The other two institutions are located in Jianghemei Ocean Life Plaza in the east of the city.
"We first signed up for Meijim. Later, when the child grew up, Meijim's teacher recommended that we transfer classes, so that we could apply for Meijim. At that time, they said that Meijim and Meijim are brands affiliated to the same company, Baisituo. Later, we learned that the group also has Philippine martial arts and Haifan swimming."
Chen's father said that they live in Qianjiang New City , and there are many stores under Baisituo. He considered that it was a relatively large group company and a big brand, and felt that it was no problem, but he suddenly received the news of class suspension. "We calculated that the courses of the three brands together have a loss of more than 20,000 yuan. Many students in our children's kindergarten classes have also signed up for courses under Baisituo, and many of them have signed up for two or three. Some of them have just participated in the event to recharge their money, with the fewer losses of 10,000 or 20,000 yuan and the more than 30,000 yuan. "Especially Haifan Swimming, the courses are very expensive, and a class costs more than 200 yuan and a lot of classes. Parents who have signed up for this course suffer a great loss. "Dad Chen said that he has not received any responses from several brand institutions now.
When the reporter checked the relevant information of Hangzhou Baisituo Holding Group Co., Ltd. through "Tianyan Check" and found that the company was established on September 30, 2017 with a registered capital of 30 million yuan and the legal representative is Liu Hongxia.
In addition to regular education and training, the company's business scope also involves domestic advertising, computer software and hardware, and investment consulting (except securities and futures) (without the approval of financial and other regulatory authorities, it is not allowed to engage in financial services such as financing deposits, financing guarantees, and financial management on behalf of customers)
Liu Hongxia also owns 31 similar companies, including Hangzhou Beiyi Art Specialty Training Co., Ltd., Hangzhou Bei'an Art Specialty Co., Ltd., and Hangzhou Beifa Art Specialty Co., Ltd.
But under Baisituo's name, this Liu Hongxia only holds 30% of the shares, and the other 70% of the shares are a man named Lou Xiao.
There are 24 companies related to Lou Xiao, most of which are education and training institutions. Among them, Hangzhou Shan'an Art Specialty Training Co., Ltd. and Hangzhou Meijimu Art Specialty Training Co., Ltd. both show that they were included in the list of abnormal business operations because they were unable to contact the registered residence or business place. The inclusion dates were November 20 and November 22 this year. In addition, some of the equity of many companies under Lou Xiao’s name is still pledged, and the movable property is mortgaged. Liu Hongxia is also related to these companies.
It is understood that parents are currently filling out the class withdrawal form to register.
"Beautiful Wonderful Illusion" has a total of 6 stores in Hangzhou. The Sun City store , located on , Shixiang Road, Gongshu District, also closed last week.
Yesterday at noon, when the reporter first arrived at the store, the lights were not turned on inside. There were only four or five parents, as well as two staff members, the front desk and course consultant. The parents were inquiring about the remaining courses in the store. At one or two o'clock in the afternoon, the number of people gradually began to increase, with more than 20 parents.
Parent: The company had a problem in July, and the event was held on Double Eleven, this is a scam!
"Now all stores in Meiqimisoi have been closed. Several stores in Wanda and Binjiang started to make trouble last week. Sun City is the last one, and it has only been 'notched' until now' for parents." A parent told reporters that their family had been enrolled in Meiqimisoi and had a LEGO class in Meiqimisoi, and there was still more than 10,000 yuan in class fees. Unexpectedly, after so long, the store suddenly closed.
Front desk staff told reporters that the store of Meiqi Miaoxiang Sun City is actually profitable, but the entire company collapsed -
"Our company is not going bankrupt. We used to work hard, and everyone is doing their usual performance. But the boss no longer paid the salary. In October, he only paid the basic salary, and the teacher's class hours and commissions were not paid. Until now, no money has been paid. Now, the boss can't find it, and there is no money."
asked the parents present, and the remaining course fees were basically tens of thousands of yuan, the most, and the remaining course fees were nearly 40,000 yuan.
A parent sent a form for the remaining class hours to the reporter. Among the more than 400 students, there were hundreds of people with the remaining class hours of more than 100 classes. The total of all remaining classes in the table is more than 20,000 classes, involving more than 2 million yuan.
Many parents have more than 100 classes of classes
There is a parent who adds that the table is only the remaining class hours of Lego, and there are also childcare courses here, which is even higher, and the annual fee is more than 30,000 yuan. The parent who had a remaining class fee of nearly 40,000 yuan had two children at home, so he took the two courses of Lego and childcare, which caused a particularly large loss.
A mother told reporters that according to her observation, this Sun City store has always been doing well and is lively. The teachers once told her that the store is profitable.
"This store is right next to our house. On the one hand, it is very convenient, and on the other hand, it feels that the faculty is relatively stable, and the children also like it. The children started learning Lego programming this year. There are activities in May and June this year, so we will continue the class."The mother said that she participated in the event and paid 15,000 yuan for a total of 160 classes. "Most of the class hours are useless now! Our teacher said that the boss originally said that he would pay his salary on December 16, but he had already owed them two months of salary. "
What makes parents particularly angry is that the company has had problems in its operations since July, but then it frequently started course promotions for , "It is obvious that it is to make money." Many parents took advantage of Double Eleven and Double Twelve to sign up for a large number of courses, but the store closed before a few classes were held.
" This wall - a time ago, there were 188 discount places being registered. The first wall has already filled 188, and now it has changed. "A parent pointed to the red display board next to the reporter, "Now more than 30 second walls have been unveiled, which means that more than 200 people have bought new courses recently. "
And when buying courses for promotion, the more you buy, the more you make, the more cost-effective it is. Each class costs basically one or two hundred, and a person costs at least tens of thousands of yuan. "After counting, at least two million courses have been wasted. Even though they know that there is a problem with their business, they are trying hard to make money. This is a fraud! "
The parents present also complained, many of them reported new courses in October and November, and have only attended more than a dozen classes so far. "I bought them for National Day activities. Now that I think about it, there was already a problem when I registered, they asked me to sign up for a few more classes. I signed up for more than 90 sessions, which cost more than 10,000 yuan. "
The other side is a second-child mother, who is even more distressed, "My two children are together, and they have not attended 10 classes yet. Now there are still one and a half years left to attend. It's really unfair. "
Thick stack of remaining course purchase forms
When looking through the form, the reporter also saw that the customer with the most remaining courses had 192 classes, and the number of classes was 0. Before the Sun City store closed, he had not attended a single class.
"The class was very good, and the children also liked to come here to play. The store was still profitable, but unexpectedly it was closed suddenly. "Parents generally say that the biggest demand for is to restore courses, or find a receiving institution and continue to attend classes.
" The suggestions given now are to take judicial channels and go to the court to prosecute and investigate. If you find any crimes of raising money, the public security can intervene. "Many parents said that they could organize the group of parents who have just joined the membership to sue the company for fraud. "Because there were already problems with funds in July and August, there were still a large number of activities in National Day, Double Eleven and Double Twelve, and so many members were gathered in. "
Employee: Social security is suspended for 2 months, provident fund 7 months has not been paid
actually last Friday, some parents heard that the Wanda store in Meiqimiaoxiang was already protecting their rights. Just last week, the teacher of the Sun City store also notified the course to be suspended, but the teacher explained that because of the training, the parents thought that the Wanda store had been completed, and classes might have resumed.
" It has been a long time ago, we don't know! "Many parents sighed and realized it.
Front desk staff told reporters that they are also victims. In addition to not getting their salary, the social security has been suspended for 2 months, and the provident fund has not been paid for 7 months. "Sitting here, I am actually very afraid of being beaten by parents."
" Since October, our social security has not been paid. It shows that it has not been received, which means that it has been declared, but the money has not been transferred. Because the social security was not checked much, I didn't pay attention at that time. But we care about provident fund. "Staff said, "Since May, the provident fund has not been paid, and it has been delayed because the provident fund can be paid for the supplementary payment, so I feel it's okay. Who knows that now I come back to my senses and check it out. The social security has not been paid for two months. ”
Confirm the remaining purchase courses
Now all Lego and nursing classes have been suspended, and teachers are thinking about when to get their salary and when to start classes.The course consultant next to
also said that the company paid October salary in November and paid October commission on the 25th, but now it is not a few days before November 25, so it is not taken seriously. "Because the company reported that the rent would be paid more by the end of the year, let's take a little slow down. We thought it was nothing, but we didn't expect that things would be so big." The reason why
didn't expect it was because the Sun City store was actually quite stable. "We saw that the store situation was good at that time, and we thought that other stores should not be affected."
After a while, the manager of the Sun City store came to the scene. She said that there are more than 10 staff members in the store, including six or seven teachers. Since its opening in 2017, it has been open for more than two years. The business is quite stable, and as long as the classes are held normally, there will be no big problems.
reporters came to the Baisituo headquarters office next to Meiqimixiang, where there were only three employees. They said that the staff here were all responsible for administration and did not understand the company's operations and finance.
At present, parents and teachers of Sun City Store have established a rights protection group and intend to prepare for rights protection and protect their rights together.
Just before the reporter left, the Public Security Bureau and the Industrial and Commercial Bureau also came to the Meiqimixiang Sun City Store to investigate.
Relevant staff of the Market Supervision Bureau of Gongshu District, Hangzhou City told reporters:
"Because we received some complaints from parents that we could not contact this company, we went to the scene on December 17, and we really couldn't contact this company. According to relevant regulations, if a company does not operate at the original address, it will be included in the abnormal business list. However, we have not included this company in the abnormal business list yet, and we will continue to follow up on the progress of the situation in the past two days."
