The benevolent see the benevolent
0 yuan to learn dubbing can easily earn more than 10,000 yuan a month? Behind the "lying earner" is often a scam
Soil wool
"Free professional voice training" and "help contact high-income part-time jobs", in the face of such publicity, young people who are eager to find a job may be difficult not to be moved. However, according to media surveys, after purchasing courses at high prices, some trainees of the training courses failed to achieve the advertised "easy monthly income of more than 10,000" and "guarantee employment after training", and some even carried online loans.
As the online audio market steadily expands, more and more people are beginning to pay attention to job opportunities to record audiobooks to make money. However, there are risks hidden in the shadows of opportunity, and some "sound training courses" are obvious. First of all, use "low-cost classes" and "free classes" to fool you into listening to lectures; once you enter the game, the free classes that are "both eager to learn and easy to earn" become "brainwashing shells"; next, use promises such as "can earn more" and "can send jobs" as bait to sell "advanced training courses". The price of "advanced training courses" ranges from thousands of yuan to tens of thousands of yuan, and the time is as short as two months and as long as half a year.
If high-priced training courses can really bring job opportunities to trainees, it is understandable. The problem is that, according to the reporter's investigation, the training quality of many training courses is poor, it is difficult to fulfill promises such as "dispatch", and even minors are "loaned online" under the deception. It is clear that these training institutions are suspected of false propaganda and even fraud.
In the final analysis, the reason why training institutions can "routinely" live young people is nothing more than poor information. The online audio market is expanding day by day, while the dubbing industry is still niche. Many people will take it for granted that another "outlet" has come. But in fact, as industry insiders say: "The dubbing market is not big enough to support such a large number of voice actors." "And the market's requirements for the quality of audiobook works and the professional standards of broadcasters are also rapidly improving, which is by no means something that can be met by a simple few days of training." Therefore, it seems that the opportunity to drop the "pie" in the sky is often a "trap" dug by people with hearts.
In this regard, the trainees themselves should abandon the unrealistic idea of "lying and earning" and improve their ability to distinguish. Whether it is a "routine" or a "way out", don't be silly and unclear.
On the other hand, this training market is so chaotic that platforms and authorities should not turn a blind eye. In fact, this is not the first time that the media has reported on the chaos of the sound training market. Last year, there were media reports that on multiple complaint platforms, complaints involving voice training emerged in an endless stream, the quality of courses was uneven, the course schedule was modified without consent, the overlord clause, the refund was difficult, the dubbing copyright was stolen, and the recording resources were fraudulently obtained... Let some practitioners who are not deeply involved in the world suffer from it.
Therefore, the platform must first take responsibility, conduct a basic review of the advertising content, and timely carry out warnings and removals for training institutions where user complaints are more concentrated.
In addition, the relevant departments should also attach great importance to consumer complaints, investigate institutions suspected of violating laws and regulations, and issue consumer warnings to consumers. In view of the fact that the chaos in the training market is likely to involve not only the training industry, but also induce trainees to take out loans, it is reasonable to speculate that there may also be some kind of collusion between training institutions and lending institutions. Whether there are phenomena such as "campus loans" and "routine loans", the relevant departments should pay attention to them, thoroughly investigate to the end, and increase the punishment of illegal business behaviors according to law. Only when various departments form a joint force can we effectively regulate the chaos in the training market.
