Gyms, beauty salons, and barber shops are said to be places with the highest probability of running away.
But in fact, as long as it is a prepaid case, it is easy for it to run away, and this is not determined by the strictness of your contract.
Now, seeing that the property management has found out that the other party has already run away, some people are starting to back down, while others are shouting to force the door open and divide the things inside among everyone.
Others said they would go to other branches and put up banners together to stop the business.
To be honest, this method sounds a bit satisfying, but Zhou Yi does not intend to do so.
To put it bluntly, this is really a last resort. If the other party calls the police, then they will be in a state of being unreasonable even if they are right.
Is it fair? Of course not. Others can break the law with impunity, but we are wrong the moment we do it.
Ultimately, it comes down to a question of the cost of breaking the law.
But he couldn't persuade these people now, nor did he want to. Everyone had their own ideas, so who was Zhou Yi?
So he could only call a few neighbors who looked like they could be persuaded, such as the bald man next to him.
"Brother Zhou, you mean we should call the police first and then go to the market supervision, right? But will that be useful?" The bald brother asked with a puzzled look on his face.
Seeing that Zhou Yi didn't quite understand, the bald brother touched his bald head, looked at the outside world, and then said: "To be honest, brother, this gym is the fifth gym that has run away that I have experienced..."
What the hell? Zhou Yi was stunned when he heard what the elder brother said.
The fifth one... I told you, this running away has absolutely nothing to do with me!
But what on earth did this brother go through...
"I've been working out for many years, and honestly, I've never seen a gym that can last long. It's always strange because every time I think I've inspected it and can get an annual membership, it just runs away."
When the bald brother said this, there was a melancholy look on his face.
Zhou Yi suddenly understood. No wonder the elder brother knew that the gym had run away when he saw the locked door without even looking. It turned out that long illness makes a good doctor.
Zhou Yi asked curiously, "How did you defend your rights in the past?"
The bald elder brother shook his head: "What else can we do? Everyone says they want to do this and that, but in the end they just want to wait for others to come forward, and in the end there is no one to organize them."
"I called the police, but they said it was an economic dispute and wouldn't file a case. Then I went to the market supervision department, but they said they couldn't enforce the law and suggested we take legal action. I called the citizen hotline, but they just told me to wait. Two years have passed since then..."
"Before they ran away, they were offering discounts. Annual passes were dirt cheap, just over a thousand yuan. No one wanted to sue because of this, and we couldn't find the boss, so in the end, the matter was left unresolved."
Zhou Yi nodded. This was indeed understandable. If the person could not be found, the service would become service by announcement, and the already long litigation period would become even longer.
Because it takes sixty days for the notice to be delivered.
Moreover, if you can't find the person, you will face the problem of difficulty in execution. The gym itself owes money, so there is no executable asset.
"If the boss is the legal representative, wouldn't he be restricted in height? Furthermore, if they really enforce the law, even if they can't find him, they can still find his property. Does that mean the boss is going to give up everything and become a deadbeat just because of the money the gym collected in advance?"
The bald man said, "It's very difficult, really difficult. I sued the gym owner the fourth time he ran away. Then we found out that the gym had changed its legal representative half a year ago."
"We haven't met the person who replaced him, but since he's willing to take the blame, it means he was already prepared. So in the end, without any enforceable property, the court won't enforce the case."
Ah... can you play it that way? Zhou Yi knew what non-execution meant. It meant terminating the execution procedure because no executable property was found for the time being.
It’s just that these guys are playing too well. Why do I feel like they are taking advantage of loopholes?
The prepaid money is collected, and then the money is taken away through some means to change the legal representative, that is, the owner is changed, and the owner is no longer involved in the operation of the gym.
As for the gym itself, the rent is usually paid for a year anyway, so you don’t have to worry about water and electricity. The only things you have to worry about are wages and equipment.
If the equipment is secretly transported away or transferred to other gyms, wages will generally be paid. However, in a few gyms, wages will be directly withheld.
"Then after a while, when the rumors have died down, people will open a gym and do the same thing again, or open a beauty salon or something. Anyway, they will ask you to apply for a membership first..." The bald brother couldn't help shaking his head when he said this.
These days, smart people are everywhere.
Zhou Yi was really shocked now. He usually didn't pay much attention to these things, but now he found that these people seemed to treat the gym as an industry to make money!
Taking legal action and calling the police is useless because they just say it's a financial dispute.
"Hey, big brother, we haven't investigated this yet, so it shouldn't have reached that level yet. So my suggestion is that we should take some measures first."
Zhou Yi thought for a moment and said.
People should not scare themselves. Just because Bald Brother encountered such a situation before doesn’t mean it will be the same this time.
"Well, let me ask someone first."
Mr. Fang is the best choice, but after calling him several times, Mr. Fang was always busy on the phone, so I had to look for someone else first.
