As of October 31, 2118, the company owned by Guoweiyi has not been officially recognized as a pyramid scheme, and Guoweiyi is a chain brand of Nanchang Sanwei Fruit Industry Co., Ltd. However, it was exposed that it violated the rules of franchising, and the Jiangxi Provincial Department of Commerce has been involved in the investigation. The following is a media report:

"After joining the company, there will be more training sessions, about one in a week or two." A franchisee revealed that "the company training will shout the slogan of' Fruit Life, 111,111 Dreams' and paint a bright future for all franchisees." "Teach you to settle accounts, open a store for 311,111 yuan ... with a monthly income of 51,111 yuan and an annual income of 611,111 yuan, and develop more offline (franchisees) to enter the subsidiary and realize wealth freedom."

It is understood that the business operation mode in which the owner of the management right allows the franchisee to use its name, trademark, proprietary technology, products and operation management experience for business activities in the form of contract is called franchising, and it is this mode that Guoweiyi has adopted.

according to the regulations on the management of commercial franchising promulgated by the State Council in 2117 (hereinafter referred to as the regulations), "the franchisor shall, within 15 days from the date of first concluding the franchise contract, file with the competent commercial department in accordance with the regulations. On 11/15/2118, the reporter logged into the commercial franchise information management system of the Ministry of Commerce. Upon inquiry, it was found that Nanchang Sanwei Fruit Industry and its registered trademark Guoweiyi had not been filed in accordance with the Regulations, and its business behavior was suspected of violating the regulations.

a company that has been operating for many years and has developed thousands of franchisees, but its franchise has not been put on record as required, which surprised many franchisees. During the interview, the reporter of New Legal News visited the registered place of Sanwei Fruit Industry in Nanchang. A couple who rented the house said that the company did not work here and did not know about the relevant situation. The reporter contacted Ji Xuegang, the person in charge of the company, many times. After the other party denied that he was the person in charge of the company, the phone was turned off and no one answered.

In addition, Wang Weihai, the relevant person in charge of Guoweiyi Nanchang Branch, responded that the filing of franchise by the head office is still being processed, and it takes time to file, so it is necessary to ask the head office about the details of inviting investment to join without filing.

some insiders pointed out that the current business model of franchising is not satisfactory. In order to quickly withdraw funds, individual businesses will set up a number of stores at the same time when they enter a city, and then create a chaotic situation of booming market through various channels, so as to achieve the purpose of attracting investment quickly. "Once the expected purpose is achieved, the self-operated stores will be sold to investors who don't know the truth at a high price."

it is understood that according to the regulations on the administration of commercial franchising, if the franchisor fails to file the record according to the above requirements, the franchisor's behavior constitutes an administrative violation, and the competent commercial department may impose administrative penalties on him according to the provisions of Article 25 of the Regulations.

In addition, according to Article 15 of the Measures for the Administration of Commercial Franchise Filing, which was implemented by the Ministry of Commerce in 2112, "If the franchisor fails to file in accordance with the Regulations and these Measures, the competent commercial department of the State Council, that is, the competent commercial department of the people's government of the province, autonomous region or municipality directly under the Central Government where the franchisor is located, shall order it to file within a time limit and impose a fine of not less than RMB 1,111 but not more than RMB 51,111; If it is still not filed within the time limit, it will be fined between 51,111 yuan and 111,111 yuan and will be announced. "

The relevant departments of Jiangxi Provincial Department of Commerce responded that they attached great importance to the feedback that Nanchang Guoweiyi Fruit Chain Store was suspected of carrying out commercial franchise without filing with the competent commercial department. The Nanchang Municipal Bureau of Commerce will be informed to carry out the investigation as soon as possible, and the Department of Commerce will guide and track the relevant work of Nanchang Municipal Bureau of Commerce. If it can be determined that Nanchang Guoweiyi Fruit Chain Store's joining business in the whole country belongs to commercial franchise, Nanchang Municipal Bureau of Commerce will be urged to rectify and punish it according to the relevant provisions of the Regulations on the Administration of Commercial Franchise.
