In this statement, the company stated that Lin Feng will not participate in the upcoming games as a daily starting player, but will only take time out occasionally to participate in the game.
When this news came out, the entire Chinese basketball community was filled with sighs.
After all, Lin Feng shocked everyone, but this shock seemed to be too short.
Especially those fans who did not see Lin Feng play in person were extremely disappointed.
There were even many basketball fans in Tianhai City who flocked to Lin Feng's Weibo and left a large number of messages in response to the call.
"Lin Feng, we, the Tianhai Longteng fans, implore you to continue playing in the HBA Basketball Professional League!"
"Lin Feng, please, lead the Tianhai Longteng men's basketball team to win the championship!"
"We will always support Lin Feng!"
Although Lin Feng was also surprised by the enthusiasm of netizens, he had more important things to deal with.
After all, compared to a HBA league victory, Longteng’s strategic layout of mobile phones and automobiles is much more important.
With less than a week left before the release of the Longteng L3 mobile phone, Shen Lei and a group of senior executives began to discuss matters intensively with Lin Feng.
"Director Lin, this time we are going to launch it globally, so we must..."
Shen Lei was still talking about his plan when suddenly Lin Feng's cell phone on the table rang.
Seeing that it was an unfamiliar number, Lin Feng ignored it and hung up the phone.
"continue!"
He never answers unfamiliar phone calls when he is in a meeting, and this time is no exception.
But the next second after he hung up, the phone rang again.
Lin Feng frowned slightly, and immediately sent a quick text message to the other party when he hung up the phone.
"Hello, I can't answer your call now, please call back later."
Although Lin Feng didn't know the other party's identity, he still politely replied to the other party with a text message.
But what Lin Feng didn't expect was that just half a minute later, the phone rang again.
This time, Lin Feng was completely furious.
After all, he had never met such a short-sighted guy, so this time he planned to make an exception and answer the phone to see who the other party was.
"Who are you looking for?"
Lin Feng said somewhat displeased after answering the phone.
"You are Xu Lei's classmate, right?"
A vicious voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Xu Lei? Why did you ask him to call me?"
Lin Feng remembered the name as soon as he heard it. He was his classmate and class monitor in the Finance Department of Tianhai University.
However, in the past year or so, because Lin Feng and Jiang Li no longer went to class, they gradually lost contact with each other.
Now that he saw someone looking for Xu Lei, he was very puzzled. After all, how did they find him?
However, the other party directly scolded him on the phone: "Damn, that guy borrowed a lot of online loans from our platform, and now it's overdue. I can't find him, so of course I have to find you.
Since you are in his mobile phone address book, you must be in contact with him.
So you should tell us to pay him back as soon as possible, otherwise I will not be polite!"
When the other party said this, Lin Feng understood everything instantly.
In recent years, China's Internet finance has developed rapidly, and a large number of online lending platforms have emerged across the country in a very short period of time.
Some of these platforms are legal and compliant, but many are simply private "loan sharking" platforms disguised as Internet finance.
The interest rates on these platforms are extremely shocking. For example, if you borrow 2,000 yuan, not only will you receive 1,400 yuan, but you also have to pay back 2,500 yuan within five days.
This situation is completely illegal and has even seriously affected social stability.
But even with such unequal online lending, many people still choose to take risks and borrow money from it.
Hearing the other party's arrogant tone, Lin Feng guessed that the platform the other party was talking about must not be a regular online loan platform.
“Which platform are you on?”
"I'm from Huaxiaodai platform!"
Lin Feng narrowed his eyes quickly when he heard it. This was indeed an unknown black platform!
Although the cause of this incident was that Xu Lei borrowed money from someone else's platform.
But in fact, from a certain perspective, the Hua Microfinance platform itself is not legal.
It's like someone opens a casino and others go to the casino to gamble.
Although people who go to gamble are suspected of breaking the law, those who open casinos are committing even more serious violations of the law.
In addition, Xu Lei had a good relationship with Lin Feng in the past, and now that he was in trouble, he certainly would not sit idly by.
So without any hesitation, Lin Feng spoke again: "How much money does he owe you? I'm here to pay it back!"
The amount of money loaned by these small loan platforms must not be high, so Lin Feng planned to help Xu Lei solve these problems at once, and then find an opportunity to ask him about what happened.
"Hey, it seems like you have a pretty good relationship with him, so pay him back the 2,500 yuan he owes us, plus the 5,000 yuan interest."
The person on the other end of the phone was immediately delighted after hearing Lin Feng's words, and then spoke slowly.
"Did I hear you right? I borrowed 2,500 yuan, but after paying back the principal, I still have to pay 5,000 yuan in interest? This is not just usury, it's robbery!"
Lin Feng questioned on the spot.
"Nonsense, this guy is overdue for a week, so of course we have to charge extra interest. If you borrow money from the bank and it's overdue, don't you have to pay the overdue fee?"
The other party disagreed.
"Okay, I can help him pay back the principal of 2,500 yuan and the interest of 5,000 yuan, but I want to know the loan rules of your platform.
For example, how much money do I borrow, when do I pay it back, and how much do I pay back? "
"You have so many things to do. On our platform, borrowing money depends on your identity.
Take Xu Lei for example, he is just a college student, so the loan limit we lend him is two thousand yuan.
You can borrow two thousand yuan for five days, and then you only need to pay back two thousand five hundred yuan before the due date.
However, if the principal plus interest is not repaid by the due date, we will charge an additional 20% overdue fee for each day of delay.
And the overdue fees will be accumulated, so after Xu Lei was overdue for several days, the overdue fee given by our platform today is 5,000 yuan.
But if you pay it back tomorrow, the fee will not be five thousand, but six thousand.
