How was Chen Man's year after he got out of prison?

Twenty-three years of unjust imprisonment did not erase Chen Man's dream of doing business. It took him half a year to calm down and start his life again, and then he devoted himself to the rolling sea of business, eager to make compensation for the lost time and life.

He vowed not to be the second Zhao Zuohai to participate in pyramid schemes. However, misfortune can still happen.

2065438+February, 2006 1 day, Zhejiang Higher People's Court publicly acquitted Chen Man and released him in court.

Since then, Chen Man has applied to the Hainan Provincial High Court for state compensation of 9.66 million yuan. The Hainan Provincial High Court finally paid Chen Man 2.75 million yuan in state compensation.

Chen Man once told the Beijing News reporter that although he still thought that he should compensate other money, including lost time, he was unwilling to spend too much energy on this matter after many times of communication with the Hainan Provincial High Court, considering the judicial situation and family situation. The two parties finally confirmed the compensation amount of 2.75 million yuan and signed relevant documents.

My brother Chen Yi said that all the money was managed by Chen Man alone. His family used to tell his mother to take care of the money. Her mother thinks that Chen Man has suffered for 23 years and should be dealt with by him.

Less than half a year after he was released from prison, his 83-year-old father, Chen Yuanyuan, died of multiple organ failure on the evening of August 27, 20 16.

Chen Man likes reading autobiographies of successful businessmen, and he hopes to be as successful as them one day.

Zhou Qiang, an independent documentary photographer from Sichuan who followed Chen Man, said that Chen Man was a filial person. My father's ashes are placed in the cemetery, and I have to kowtow before burial, but I don't want to get up after kowtowing.

This tomb cost about 65,438+10,000 yuan, and his family advised him to buy an ordinary one. Chen Man insisted on buying an expensive one, thinking that his father had worked hard for him for 20 years and wanted to do his filial piety at last.

In an interview with the media before his death, Chen Yuancheng expressed the hope that people would always remember that there was an unjust case that changed the fate of Chen's three generations, which was called the "Chen Man case", but he hoped that people could forget Chen Man himself and let his life stop for 23 years and start again in peace.

Chen Man once listened to his father's guidance and was content with the status quo. He reads books, watches TV and listens to symphonies at home. He gets up early every day to buy food and cook, and accompany his mother who is over eighty to visit the park. Chen Yi took him out to play and introduced artists and entrepreneurs to communicate with Chen Man. Life gradually calmed down and people gained weight.

After he got out of prison, Chen Man didn't want to read the verdict. He wants to be an ordinary person. But his brother Chen Yi told the Beijing News reporter: "After all, he was locked up for 23 years, traveling through time and space, from the last century to this century."

When I first got my mobile phone, Chen Man couldn't use it. The phone was dialed out, but I didn't know how to hang up. He can't pay online, and he can't figure out why he can poke a red envelope on the screen with his finger. Go out for a walk alone and dare not go too far.

Judging from some details of life, Chen Yi felt that Chen Man was easily fooled. At home, Chen Man was asked to go shopping. If the enthusiasm of selling vegetables is introduced, you will buy a pile and you will never finish it. At the local rose festival, some people advertised to buy roses as sauce. He bought ten catties of petals in one breath and finally discarded them all.

Chen Man once promised to invite his classmates who had helped him to dinner before the Spring Festival, and all the classmates from other places happened to go back to their hometown. Discuss with his classmate Huang and agree to have dinner together on the third day of the first month.

To Huang's surprise, at one o'clock in the morning on the third day, Chen Mancai sent a guest invitation notice in the group, inviting everyone to gather at a hotel at nine o'clock in the morning. However, the hotel was full the next day, and Huang had to make a temporary reservation. Due to the short notice, some students went to visit relatives or travel. 13 Only 50 students arrived.

"Unlike before, everyone came to dinner as soon as they called. Now everyone is very busy and needs to make an appointment in advance," Huang feels. "It proves that his understanding of the relationship between people has become blurred and he has not fully adapted to society."

After he was released from prison, Huang asked not to regard himself as a news figure, stay away from the media, let go of the past and start a new life. Chen Man didn't listen, but he was still interviewed and even followed.

"He should keep his feet on the ground, but he is still hanging in the air," Huang said. Journalists and friends are all centered on him, and some students who are officials in the government also visit him. He feels that he has some fame.

As for the marriage partner, Chen Man demanded: under 35 years old, be beautiful and filial. Friends advised him not to stick to specific conditions, but Chen Man said that he "believes in fate, which does not mean that he will not meet it in the future."

Li Fei, a friend, said that considering that Chen Man was old and had no pension, several friends advised Chen Man to buy social security, but Chen Man was indifferent, because he thought it was not cost-effective to pay 65.438 million yuan more.

After returning home, Chen Man bought a computer and a mobile phone, and learned to use modern intelligent tools. The phone number has the suffix "18". Chen Man said that this number is auspicious, and the homonym is "send".

Chen Yi said that some of Chen Man's classmates have entered official careers and some are engaged in the construction industry. Now they are all successful people. Chen Man once said, "If nothing happens to me, I will still be like you, with a full house of children and grandchildren, a successful career and everything." In Chen Yi's understanding, there is a gap in Chen Man's thought. In addition, the state compensation money is used less and less, and he wants to find something to do as soon as possible.

Chen Man limited his age to 70 and hoped to do well in the remaining ten years. Chen Man said, "Think of yourself as a young man."

Chen Yi thinks that the Chen family is a scholarly family, and the whole family can't do business. So, remind Chen Man not to do business at any time, to be filial to his old mother, and to use the extra money to settle down, have children and spend his old age peacefully.

Friends also suggested dividing the money into several parts, some to buy government bonds, some to deposit in the bank, or some to buy facades and shops, and do some business in small counties, such as Mianzhu people drinking tea and opening a small teahouse to make money.

"He has a dream of making money, starting a business and succeeding." Huang, a high school classmate, can see that the dream of gold rush, which was not obtained more than 20 years ago, still haunts me.

After he got out of prison, he bought Liu Creation, Wang Jianlin's wanda philosophy, Ma Yun's My World Never Say Never Give Up, Ma Yun's Games, Entrepreneur magazine and other books. He keeps these books by his bed, so he can read them at any time and take notes in his notebook.

In prison, I also paid attention to the entrepreneurial stories of Ma Yun, Shi Yuzhu, Niu Gensheng and Yu. When interviewed by the media after he was released from prison, Chen Man mentioned more than once that he wanted to start a business in the Internet industry, but he didn't think about what to do.

Chen Man once wanted to invest in cultural industries and buy a house in Chengdu. Some people also heard the wind. A big boss found Chen Man. He didn't need Chen Man to take money out, so he took advantage of Chen Man's reputation and waited for a piece of the action. However, this incident can't come afterwards.

Li Fei said that Chen Man's initial intention of doing business has not changed, partly because of his stubborn personality, which has not changed for more than 20 years. For example, the college entrance examination for four years, "both stubborn and persistent, the same personality, see how to foster strengths and avoid weaknesses."

One unforgettable detail for Li Fei is that Chen Man opened a decoration company in Hainan and rented two offices in a four-star hotel, one of which cost 3,000 yuan per month. Li Fei saw no need to waste it. Chen Man thinks that only foreign-style offices can attract more business. "But didn't rent a few months back, don't spend. Chen Man doesn't feel that he has done anything wrong.

Besides being stubborn, Li Fei said that Chen Man seems to feel that only when he earns money can he have face.

According to Huang's description, according to the local customs in Mianzhu, a dinner at noon is usually 1 1,000 yuan, and a light meal in 300 yuan at night, but a table at night should be booked at 1 1,000 yuan.

Chen Man smokes "relatively strong" China cigarettes.

Huang thinks that he is a person with strong self-esteem and self-confidence, but now it seems that his self-confidence seems to be "a bit overdone".

Once, Huang suggested that after receiving state compensation, he could give credit to his friends who worked in the bank. However, Huang was surprised by his answer. "I'll give you tens of millions to go on credit."

Chen Man also proposed to build the third tea brand in the world. At a class reunion, Chen Man suggested that next year's class reunion should be held abroad, "and the expenses should be borne by him".

After Vicat's pyramid scheme, classmate Zheng Bin persuaded Chen Man to leave home and let Chen Man get on the bus. Chen Man refused and said to Zheng Bin, "You can take my Mercedes next time." Zheng Bin was speechless.

Huang told the Beijing News reporter that his personality characteristics may come from two points. First, Chen Man failed in the college entrance examination; Second, I went to Hainan to do business, determined to honor my ancestors, but left a huge grievance. So I thought I would be recognized and respected in my career and love. "This kind of psychology is at work."

Documentary photographer Zhou Qiang noticed that Chen Man dressed casually in the first half of the year, wearing a cotton-padded jacket, loving cleanliness, and was clean and tidy whenever he came out.

Seeing Chen Man from165438+1October 2 1, I became more business-oriented, wearing a jacket, black shoes, carrying a computer bag and holding a cup.

There are also changes in speech. Zhou Qiang thought it used to be an ordinary communication between people. Now, Chen Man pays more attention to words and tone. For example, his voice used to be louder and more direct, but now he speaks slowly and elegantly.

20 17 Before the Spring Festival, Chen Man and Li Fei and other friends had tea together. Chen Man said that he rented a house in Mianzhu and invested 654.38 million yuan to promote daily chemical products.

He also wanted a friend to introduce a salesman selling Amway products to his studio, but Li Fei refused, "for fear that Chen Man would be brainwashed by the salesman himself".

Everyone thought that Chen Man was making a small investment. He kept an eye on the money, but he didn't see any clues, so he returned safely.

What friends and family didn't know was that Chen Man had already started investing in Vicat coins suspected of pyramid schemes.

On the evening of October 201165438+1October 2 1, Chen Man called Zhou Qiang, an independent documentary photographer, and said that he had made a new start in his career and would go to a company to talk about business and make investment tomorrow.

Zhou Qiang followed Chen Man for two or three hours. "I can see that it is not the first time they have spoken, and they are very familiar." .

On February 24th, Wang, our attorney, posted a message in the circle of WeChat friends: "If you invest more than one million yuan, you will get a return of more than nine million yuan one year later. Visually, Chen Man seems to be involved in pyramid schemes, which has attracted the attention of relatives and friends.

Zhou Qiang filmed the whole video of Chen Man communicating with the employees of the investment company. The video shows that a middle-aged woman wearing a mandarin jacket and short hair ("Guo Jie, the founder of Vicat") introduced that Vicat started in Hong Kong, and now has more than 2.79 million members worldwide and more than one million members in China, and has obtained legal licenses from 2 14 countries. Chen Man made it clear that after listening for only one hour, he invested more than 400,000 yuan.

At present, Sichuan Kaijian Network Technology Co., Ltd., located in Sansheng Township, Chengdu, has been deserted.

Chen Man's investment in Vicat coins was hidden from his family, and his family and friends didn't know the news until the media reported it.

"We don't know what he is doing. Every time I come back, I say I am studying. " His brother Chen Yi was puzzled.

Subsequently, the Friends of Mianzhu Group, which was established several years ago, was reactivated.

This organization brought together eight friends from Chen Man, who were originally set up to avenge Chen Man. After Chen Man was acquitted, the organization was quiet for a while. After Chen Man invested in Vicat, it caused a heated discussion in the group. This dead baby won't listen to us. "He still told me that the future will prove everything. If a beating can work, one of you will give him a beating. "

A friend also wrote an open letter to Chen Man, "More than 20 years is a long journey for a person, especially when you are young. Who's in prison? Didn't you learn anything? For example, the understanding of deception and the identification of liars. "

"I suggest you recover the hard-earned money you got from unfair imprisonment to arrange the rest of your life. I think your parents and family expect the same. " An open letter called for.

Last Saturday, my good friend Zheng Bin rushed to Chen Man's home early in the morning to try to convince Chen Man. After chatting for 1 hour, they quarreled. Zheng Bin said to his classmates, "I can't go in."

"You don't understand." "You don't care, I know."

Chen Man used these words to send away the students who came to dissuade him, and even stopped answering his classmates' phone calls.

Photographer Zhou Qiang observed that Chen Man was subjective and confident. He had to do what he decided, so he generally didn't listen to what his friends wanted to persuade him.

Classmate Huang analyzed that under the current circumstances, it is very unlikely to recover the investment funds, and he did not call. "Every day he is under great pressure, and I don't think I can listen."

Chen Yi said that the family members were also anxious to report the case, but considering that Chen Man had just been released from prison after all and could not stand the blow, he was "afraid of cheating", so he considered asking a lawyer to solve it.

Chen Man's mother is most worried about her son's health. The old man told his friend that if he couldn't get the money back, he would forget it. "If his second brother has a nervous breakdown, it will be bad to learn from him." Stimulated by the Chen Man incident, his second brother became withdrawn and extreme, and kept away from strangers.

"Unexpectedly, it is also expected." Huang believes that according to his handling of things and his understanding of society, he did not expect to invest a huge sum of 6,543,800 yuan. However, even if it is not Vika, Chen Man will be fooled sooner or later.
