I began to convince grandpa when I was in primary school. I remember a time when I was unhappy about it. When I grew up, I thought I could tell him through some news reports, official data and authoritative rhetoric. In fact, he was still dubious. It was not until the drama "The Old Man's Country" came out that I excitedly called my grandmother and asked her to show it to my grandfather as soon as possible. My grandfather didn't finish an episode, and my grandmother loved it, too close to real life. What encourages the elderly to sell houses and buy houses, queue up in the supermarket early in the morning to buy special dishes, send the elderly to nursing homes and so on. The play is alive. My grandfather, who couldn't make up his mind, came to consult me. When encountering fraudulent short messages and fraudulent advertisements, he will also ask me if I am true or false, and he will not blindly believe it. This drama specifically tells the story of "sunset industry" derived from the mentality of the elderly, and specifically exposes the deception, insider and process. Grandma Lu in the play is not afraid of death or blindly pursuing health. Maybe it's just because they are so lonely. They want to buy some material things or contact some sales that please them, and sell fake drugs to satisfy their emptiness.

Perhaps, outside this TV series, have we really not walked into the hearts of the elderly? Try to communicate with them deeply.

I have handled more than 100 such cases since I worked as an inspector in the Food and Drug Administration. Yesterday, two old gentlemen and an old lady came to my office to complain that the propolis capsules they bought cost more than 10 thousand yuan each. The three old people dressed up as ordinary farmers. An old man said that his monthly pension is tens of dollars and he has almost no income. More than 10 thousand people don't know how long it took, but he began to cry. I hate my roots itch, so I'm going to bring all those liars to justice. But I can't. Why? I will speak slowly.

Post a message I wrote some time ago first. It might be helpful for everyone to have a look.

I believe everyone understands that health food is not a medicine at all and has no therapeutic function. Those health care products, such as propolis capsules, have batch numbers on the packaging, and there are manufacturers in the police mobile unit with production dates. They are legal health food. There is nothing we can do about normal sales. We can sell as much as we want, but we can't help it, even if we sell five thousand dollars and ten dollars of broken pills. In a market economy, there is nothing we can do about it. But, but, where is the problem, that is, exaggerating publicity!

Health care products have no therapeutic function, but will liars say so? Liars will blow their products to the sky and cure all diseases. Their deception is very clever, grasping the weakness of the elderly who are afraid of death and deceiving them to death. They have studied the psychological characteristics of the elderly too thoroughly and seized these weaknesses to brainwash them. I think there are four main points:

1, lonely

China has already entered an aging society. According to statistics, nearly 50% of the elderly in China are living alone. The elderly lack care, children go out to work more, and spend less time with the elderly. People are social animals, feel safe in the crowd and like to be with other elderly people. In addition, most elderly people are no longer engaged in social activities, and are prone to illness and neglect the care of their children. They are more concerned about health than the average person and are willing to pay more money, time and energy. As long as it is good for your health, you are willing to buy more expensive health care products. Unscrupulous merchants just see the psychological needs of the elderly who need to talk to others and need to be accompanied, organize various activities, invest a lot of emotions, and let the elderly fall into the trap and voluntarily buy various health care products.

Of course, there are various forms. For example, this bed seller:

We received a report at that time and came to this company located on the second floor of a bazaar warehouse. We were stopped when we entered the door. Just like a party. Old ladies usually look shy. They sang one after another. Yes, it's not a liar singing on it, it's an old lady singing on it! The swindlers turned their lair into an elderly club. The old man and the old woman are very willing to go, laughing. Here, they really found a sense of belonging, warmer than home. A liar is closer than his son, who only wants to spend Lao Zi's money, so a liar cares about Lao Zi's health. what am I supposed to do？ Take a liar as my adopted son. It's no exaggeration at all. Really, more than 100 old people who sell propolis capsules in the store have recognized a liar as their adopted son. 2, greedy and cheap

These swindlers are really calculating, and they have grasped the psychology that the elderly love to take advantage of small things. They give lectures, give Chairman Mao a badge, a piece of hanging paper, a comb and so on, all of which are worthless things. Once we received a report that someone was doing this kind of publicity in a factory in a town. When we arrived, we found a truck parked in front of the factory building. We thought it was a truckload of health products, but it turned out to be a truckload of dried noodles.

I can't bear to let my children associate with wolves. I also said that the liar in the propolis capsule shop, after recognizing hundreds of dads, told his dads, give your son a red envelope. Ten dollars is not too little, nor is a thousand. Then send a red envelope, let the old people put the money in, write down their names, and then give it to him and get it instantly! Wait, you think this is over? That's too underestimate the liar. Liars nowadays are not that simple. After receiving these red envelopes, the swindler took the old man on the bus and went to a temple. When they got there, they offered incense to the old people for free and asked for a string of beads to wish their father a long life. The old people were moved, and the box was not finished. And guess what? The swindler returned the hundred red envelopes to the old man. Not only has the original money not been moved, but also 100 USD has been added to each card! Now the old people are completely moved, and adopting a son is not for money! Really for our health!

Step 3 save face

All the people in the club are neighbors. Uncle Zhang bought it. Can I not buy it? Listening to other people's classes for nothing? Besides, my adopted son is so kind to me. What's wrong with buying him something?

4, afraid of getting sick

Godson is also good for my health. I have to buy it. My adopted son is right. I can't take my money with me when I die. Why leave it to my heartless son? He doesn't care whether I live or die, and he doesn't know where people are every day. He is as good to me as his adopted son is with me every day. Godson is really for my health, buy it!

-Go ahead.

Then talk about what we are doing. The US Food and Drug Administration, whose full name is the US Food and Drug Administration, is in charge of "four products and one machine", including food, medicine, health care products and cosmetics, and one machine is a medical device. We should be careful of these deceptive health products. I can't wait to bring all the swindlers to justice when I see that the pension money that poor old people are usually unwilling to spend is cheated away by swindlers! However, it is difficult. Why?

1, the law cannot keep up. The current management measures for health food were promulgated in 1996. It has been 20 years and has not been updated. The law is not perfect.

2. It is difficult to obtain evidence. These swindlers sell real health food. This propolis capsule, the batch number of which belongs to the police mobile unit, is produced by a regular manufacturer, which is reasonable and legal. I can't help it, nor am I forced to buy it. Why should I punish you? But why should we call them liars? Just because they make false propaganda! Obviously it doesn't have that much effect. He said yes, so it won't work. However, we need evidence to punish. It's too difficult to get evidence. The box of propolis capsule clearly says, "This product is a health food, which has no therapeutic function and cannot be used as medicine. Please follow the doctor's advice. " . Do you see it? We sell healthy food. We never said it could cure diseases! So I also want to advise my old friends to carefully look at what is written on the package when buying it, and whether it has such magical functions. When we find such businesses in our daily inspections, or when we receive reports and complaints, we usually warn these businesses not to exaggerate their propaganda, and then check whether there is a food circulation license. If they have it, there's nothing they can do. People can sell it. No, I can't do much. As long as people don't sell it on the spot, they have to publicize it.

Here, I can only sincerely say to all my old friends and friends with old people at home, be sure, be sure, and don't listen to these liars. Not sick, exercise well, eat more vegetables and exercise more, don't trust this health care product. If you are sick, you must go to a regular hospital. Don't believe what these swindlers say, and don't listen to any remedies.

Speaking of folk remedies, let me say one more thing. Some friends have diseases of reproductive system and urinary system, so don't have any psychological pressure. Please go to a big hospital for treatment. Private hospitals run by Fujian Putian people in other places are not reliable. Killing you in minutes is not negotiable, let alone going to those small clinics. What is the secret recipe? Hehe hehe. Let me tell you what the secret recipe is:

This is a report. The informant said he was cheated. I asked what medicine I bought, but I was embarrassed to say for a long time. Finally, I said, Bushen Shengjing Pill. Later, we went to the clinic for examination. There is an observation room inside. It is dirty. As you can see, the labels of the medicine bottles are scattered all over the floor. There are nine kinds of medicine labels on the table, and the bottle contains a broken pill.

Sometimes I feel that these old people are really pitiful and exasperating. After being fooled, no one can convince them, neither can we, nor can their son. I just feel that my son is unwilling to let them spend money and doesn't pay attention to their health. Just say that the bed seller has a room with several beds in it, and the old man is lying on it. He thinks it can be cured.

Whoever lies on it for free for a while seems to be happy. Just as we were checking, an old gentleman came in and asked, "Is there a bed for me to sleep in?" My son followed, and the old man was so anxious that he bought a bed and let me sleep for free. The angry old man wanted to hit his son.

So, how can we convince the elderly? I think we really don't study the psychology of the elderly as thoroughly as other swindlers. Then, let's learn from the experience of swindlers and do the opposite: 1, spend more time with the elderly. If you have nothing to do, go home and spend more time with the elderly. Encourage the elderly to develop healthy hobbies so that they are not so lonely.

2, buy some really useful supplements, healthy food for the elderly, but also show concern. If conditions permit, it is best to take the elderly to a regular hospital for physical examination. Only in this way can they be truly responsible for the elderly, and they can rest assured that they are no longer so "afraid of death".

3. Guide the elderly correctly. Tell the old people in your family that the so-called authoritative experts cannot be trusted, and don't be superstitious about the so-called "authority". Try not to attend health talks organized by health care products manufacturers. When you encounter deception and encouragement from others, you'd better find an excuse like "you can't be the master yourself".

I say this to remind everyone once again that health food is not a medicine and has no therapeutic effect. It's also clearly written on the package. Please pay attention to your old friends and friends with old people at home. Please read it carefully and think it over when you buy it. This thing can't cure diseases, so you must go to a regular hospital!
