On August 27th, Tianhe Branch of Guangzhou Public Security Bureau filed an investigation on Guangzhou Elephant Health Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Elephant Health), the operator of "Healthy Cat" platform, and arrested nine suspects including Yang, the legal representative of the company.
This "healthy cat" APP is known as "the future of Chinese sports". Users can register as a "private education" platform and get huge subsidies in the form of online O2O appointments.
Healthy cats have issued a notice to crack down on vicious brushing behavior.
It was learned at the scene that most private teachers are sports practitioners and enthusiasts, such as students from the Institute of Physical Education and part-time fitness instructors. According to a student of the Institute of Physical Education, with the mentality of "earning some living expenses", he registered a "healthy cat" as a private tutor under the recommendation of his senior sister, and he can earn 1000 to 2,000 yuan a month.
The Healthy Cat Sports Life Museum, located on the left side of Elephant Health Office Building, has been sealed up.
Li Zhen (pseudonym), a private tutor, said that in the early days of the "Healthy Cat" platform, in order to attract private tutor users, the subsidy given to private tutors at the beginning of the launch reached 15% of the class fee, and it arrived three days after quitting. Since then, the subsidy rate of healthy cats to private education has gradually dropped to 5%, and then to 2%, and the time of receipt has also changed from 5 days to 7 days, and then to 10 days. The subsidy ratio for 20 17 years remains at 1.5%.
The temptation of subsidies has become the soil for "brushing the bill". On the platform, private education teachers began to buy their own private education courses through multiple accounts, creating false performance to quickly seek subsidies, and even a special brush assistant software "Healthy Cat Assistant" appeared.
"Healthy Cat APP" official Weibo announcement
However, the two sides hold different opinions on whether elephant health encourages private education.
On August 4th, Yang Huali, the founder of "Healthy Cat", made a speech at the Weibo for Personal Certification, pointing out that the platform of "Healthy Cat" had some vicious phenomena such as group brushing, using software to brush, and illegal money laundering, and said that the evidence had been preliminarily sorted out and submitted to the police. On August 20th, the official Weibo of "Healthy Cat APP" issued the "Notice on Malicious Deception of Subsidies by Healthy Cats"; On August 27th, a tutor also showed the reporter a screenshot of the announcement on the "Healthy Cat" APP about cracking down on vicious brushing.
Difficulties in withdrawing cash lead to crisis.
Many private teachers said that from 20 15 to 20 17, the operation of "healthy cats" was relatively stable, and the health status of elephants was "good-looking". "Healthy Cat" has completed three rounds of financing. In the latest C-round financing, "Healthy Cat" * * received 500 million yuan investment from more than 10 domestic sports industry companies and individuals.
I learned from many private education offices that at the beginning of this year, "healthy cats" suddenly increased the subsidy ratio again, and kept adjusting for several months, with the range of 5%-8%, far higher than the stable ratio of 65,438+0.5% in 2065,438+07. Chen Ting said: "A large part of private education poured in in April this year because of high subsidies."

The good times didn't last long. In May, the "healthy cat" suddenly appeared unable to withdraw cash.
"I can't quit now, I'm stuck." A private teacher who invested more than two million yuan said, "If you don't come back, many private churches here will be overwhelmed by bank loans."
It is strange that illegal financing has not been caught!
