Simply put, this message does not involve the word intimidation. Obviously, the other party is also prepared and deliberately avoids this aspect. Intimidation is threatening others by harming their rights and interests or public interests, which makes them feel fear and panic. In many countries, this is a criminal offence. Whether it is violent or not, even if it is only a verbal threat to the victim (the other party), there are death threats or injuries to the parties or their families, companies, property rights, etc. Including death threats, bomb fraud threats, suicide threats, etc. If you intend to get other people's property or benefits in this way, it is called "threatening to get money".

Although there is no criminal provision named after the crime of intimidation in the Criminal Law of People's Republic of China (PRC). But in fact, there are other provisions that impose criminal penalties on threatening behavior, that is, the crime of stirring up trouble in Article 293 of the Criminal Law. This is a purely threatening situation, and if there are other situations, it is:

Article 226 Whoever forcibly buys or sells commodities or forces others to provide services or force others to accept services by violence or threats, if the circumstances are serious, shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years or criminal detention and shall also, or shall only, be fined.

Before the criminal law amendment (8), simple intimidation did not constitute a crime.
