Foreword: If you don't understand the real logic behind this world, you will always get hit somewhere!

Telling the story of ZZ is essentially because I think his experience is very similar to mine, and it is all because of a "do not understand" that caused a very passive situation, and it is all because the world in subjective consciousness is too different from the real world , resulting in irreversible consequences.

There are always two sets of rules in this world, the first set of rules is the appearance, and the second set of rules is the essence. The first set of rules can be shown to others, but the second set of rules can only be tacit. "God is Tao, Tao follows nature, Tathagata", everything, we need to understand the rules and rules, we must find the "Tao" behind everything we do, follow the Tao, cultivate the Tao, enlighten the Tao, prove the Tao, and practice the Tao, so that we can go smoothly water water. But if the weak do the opposite, it will be a crushing defeat. This "Tao" is the world you live in, the set of rules and laws that really exist. When the world you perceive is too different from the real world, troubles and difficult problems may be waiting for you at a certain stage.

Of course, you can also evolve your underlying logic by reading and thinking. So, after reading this article, I think you are lucky, because this is how painful I realized after my head was broken!

When I met ZZ in the detention center, it should be the period when my mental state was the worst. My case was at a standstill at that time, and the charges were changed to three. Each of them failed for a long time due to insufficient evidence. I don’t know their real intentions. , because the long-term struggle was exhausted, so during an interrogation, because of the threat of JC, a violent conflict broke out with them, which further deteriorated the relationship. After the interrogation, I went back to the room to see him, because there was a fight in the room where he was staying, and he was transferred from another room to my side. After returning, I was too lazy to pay attention to anything. It was he who took the initiative to shake hands with me, saying that he had heard of me and hoped to chat with me. I didn't want to chat with anyone at the time, but the moment I looked up and saw him, I always felt an inexplicable familiar feeling. And so began the following conversation.

This chat really laid the foundation for our relationship in the future, because I found that the three views and thinking are very close, and I feel that there will be one more friend in the future, and one more strength to support it. Some things feel like the arrangement of the heavens. I really can't tell. I saw him familiar at first glance, but after we chatted, I realized that it was not illusory. We might have seen it before we went in. When I started my first technology company in 2016, I went to Guangzhou to participate in an Internet summit, and at that summit, ZZ was also present, and we lived on the first floor of a hotel, so it is possible that in 2016 we There was a one-sided fate or a passing fate. Unexpectedly, three years later, we would continue our relationship in a detention center in a small county town, marveling at the wonder of this vast world!

ZZ’s experience is actually quite similar to mine. We both belong to the kind of friends who like to toss about and are extremely sensitive to new things. We all major in the same university major, computer science, but he prefers the Internet, and I prefer C at the time. language programming class. In 2012, I entered the financial industry inexplicably because of my contact with the bank when I made deposits. Since 2012, he has entered a major Internet company and started to explore the Internet. During this period, he also became one of the joint shareholders of "Qutoutiao".

In 2015, we started our second business at the same time. At this stage, we all chose technology companies, but my eyes began to turn to blockchain and Bitcoin, and his eyes were on the "Internet Finance", which was still relatively popular at that time. .

ZZ is very powerful, because his personality is extremely suitable for starting a business. People from Chaozhou, Guangdong, have advanced thinking, tenacious character, and selfless structure. They are almost born for entrepreneurship. Therefore, after seeing the direction of Internet finance in 2015, ZZ started from basic research and development, carried out a variety of product iterations, and later made a product that can stand side by side with Alipay's "Sesame Credit" to help some Internet finance companies and loans companies, for further risk control and score rating of lenders. I've talked to him many times about his products, and essentially, there is no problem. Logically, his products mainly serve the B-side and those loan companies. Loan companies need to carry out credit ratings on individuals who need loans, and his products are based on big data to perform all-round system ratings on individuals who need loans in addition to central bank credit.

So in essence, what he does is similar to "Sesame Credit", except that his rating is more in line with the needs of loan companies. In order to make the company develop better, ZZ did two things in the early stage of development. The first is to apply for a "confidentiality qualification" in the Guangzhou High-tech Zone; the second is that the entire data is not stored in the company's system server, but is isolated from the data desensitization to ensure that the data is connected to their own technicians. Neither can be called.

Then you have to ask, this thing seems to be no problem, so where is the problem? The problem lies in the B side of their service. In 2018, the anti-criminal and evil operations began, and one of the main targets was "loan companies involved in usury", so there were problems with a large number of B-sides they served.

If there is a problem with the B side of my service, it doesn't mean that I will have a problem, right? I'm just selling knives, they use them to kill people, what's wrong with me? I know many people think so. This is exactly the same as the self-righteous thinking of many people in the B circle. I used to think so, and ZZ thought so too, so I stumbled.

First, when there is a problem with the B-side of ZZ’s service, ZZ’s company frequently appears in the sight of the police. Regardless of whether you have any business or not, according to the inference of guilt, first set a suspicion here.

Second, many people should pay attention to this point. I think this is the key point of ZZ's accident. ZZ company has developed very well. It started in 2015. In 2018, the company’s revenue has reached over 100 million, which is quite impressive. So ZZ feels that he has done a good job and wants to go public on the New Third Board. ZZ is happy to put all the assets of over 100 million In the company's account, prepare to show your strength while making yourself financially more abundant. From this point of view alone, ZZ may not understand China's national conditions and politics at all. Of course, I did not understand it at the time.

Third, a large number of Internet finance and loan companies that serve have problems. ZZ knows it, but he has no awareness of risk control or in other words, earning nine figures. When the industry collapsed, he never thought about it Whether to "find an umbrella", a grassroots, how dangerous it is to get rich, he may not know at all.

There are also some obscure things that I don’t want to talk about and I can’t talk about them. As a result, ZZ’s entire company was arrested for the crime of “illegally infringing on citizens’ information”. Chaoshan people have a strong family concept in doing business. The third brother was listed as a suspect in his entirety. ZZ has such a staunch character, of course he will not compromise, and his family is betting on it, so he fought resolutely all the way, and changed several lawyers to defend his innocence, firmly believing that God just wanted to have a fight with him It's just a joke, as long as you fight hard, everything will return to the original appearance.

After fighting for 2 full years, ZZ was sentenced to 7 years for "illegal infringement of citizens' information". Because of the "fraud" behavior of many loan companies he served, he was sentenced to 5 years as an accomplice, adding up to 12 years in total. ,ten years! In addition, the second brother and Sandi were sentenced to 7 years and 5 years in prison respectively, and almost none of the family survived. And the assets of more than 100 million yuan in the company's account were all confiscated as illegal and criminal proceeds. This is an extremely sad ending. To be honest, I saw the verdict after I came out, and after reading it, I couldn't be calm for a long time that night.

Regarding whether to constitute a crime, we have conducted many rounds of discussions in it, and I have also read all their materials. At present, the court has made such a judgment. I cannot talk about it in detail, but I can only tell you one point of view: in the end Whether to constitute a crime, how to constitute a crime, and how to mitigate the crime are not up to you, nor is it up to "evidence". China is a place where evidence is very weakened. Although the rule of law is getting better, the real rule of law society , we are still some distance away. And the last straw that crushed ZZ was the more than 100 million in his account, and his attitude of resolute resistance from beginning to end.

Why do I say that ZZ’s experience is very similar to mine? In essence, we all have a passive situation because we don’t understand the national conditions and what we are fighting against. When we were inside, we discussed a topic. If we didn’t fight like this at the beginning, surrendered and handed over some assets, would it be possible that we would have gone out long ago. But in fact, we all know that this kind of discussion is meaningless, and we all smile, or helplessly. For grassroots like us, is it the original sin to be rich? In other words, should you think clearly, when you have money, how you should protect yourself and your family is the most necessary thing. ZZ said that the pattern Tucson was broken, I smiled and said: Then let you choose again? ZZ didn't answer, but just looked out of the window deeply.

ZZ's tenacity made him very successful. He has radiance on his body. This kind of radiance makes him shine everywhere. He is also one of the few. Even in a place like a detention center, he can be neither humble nor overbearing, and the bottom is pure people. An old man who entered the cell because of a petition had a conflict with the power of the prison boss that night, and he might be targeted. At this time, he may be the only one who will stand up to help the old man, and he will not hesitate to fight with the prison boss later. It doesn't matter if the relationship is strained. This kind of conservative principle protects those who think they should be protected at all costs, and I have no way to label him a "bad guy" anyway.

He is also one of the few friends that I still keep in touch with by correspondence. We all have that kind of resolute refusal to admit defeat, no matter how tragic the defeat, we will still clamor: the future is still ours. It's a pity that his past ten years is a bit too long. When I read his letters to me, I often burst into tears:

The story of ZZ can let us understand the current system. From another perspective, if you encounter a similar situation, how to deal with it is possible to exchange the smallest loss for the largest space. Here, there are legal principles, reasonable principles, and the hidden rules explained above. We should indeed fight, but the way of fighting is not a set of stubborn resistance that we think is "fair and just", but a "soft strategy" that conforms to social rules.

After I came back, I spent a lot of time thinking about it. In 2021, another friend was imprisoned because of problems with the clients he served in software development, and I helped him deal with it from the beginning to the end. matter. From the detention center to the lawyer, to the materials of the case-handling unit, to related arrangements, after a month of busy work, he walked out of the door smoothly.

At that time, I always thought, if I had a friend like this in the first month, helping me outside, would the result be different? Unfortunately, what if, life is like this! So, brothers, if you can, you should have at least one friend who can understand the "rules" and understand the "rules". When you need help, lend a helping hand in time, not necessarily in the so-called "case" "Above", but the critical junctures of our lives, you still need a trustworthy and reliable friend.
