How did I get multiple Schengen visas to and from Europe in three days?

What if I want to travel to Europe without a European Schengen visa? There are so many countries in Europe, not to mention France, Italy and Switzerland in northern Europe, Sweden, Norway and Iceland in northern Europe, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands and Hungary in central Europe; Spain, Portugal and Greece in southern Europe; Poland and the Czech Republic in eastern Europe ... wouldn't it be better if you could get a 1 year multiple-entry visa?

All EU countries can issue Schengen visas, but some countries are stingy. For example, if you travel for 10 days, Germany will issue you a Schengen visa for 15 days. At present, only Italy and France can issue Schengen visas over 1 year, but Italy stipulates that the monthly salary to be issued to bank cards must be over 1 10,000. Go away. France is simple, there is no such requirement, as long as you provide a bank account with a balance of more than 50 thousand, you can pay as much as you want. Then lock the French Schengen visa.

At first, I found a visa agent for "100-city travel" according to my previous habit and paid a visa fee of 3600 yuan.

Finally, the visa company asked me to go to Beijing to submit the materials. Not only do you have to ask for leave from Shenzhen to Beijing, but the high-speed train is also 1500 yuan. The visa fee is more than 5000 yuan. Chatting with customer service, she also said that it is only possible to apply in Beijing in 1-5 years, and there is no guarantee that the application will arrive. After struggling for a week, I still didn't go to Beijing ... Finally, I gave up going to Beijing and got a refund!

Then I found a visa company in Shenzhen and Guangzhou on Taobao. After consulting several companies, I can't say that I won't get the Schengen visa for 1 year under such circumstances.

Finally, Mu Yi, a traveler in the WeChat circle, opened my mind. He traveled around seven continents and went to the South Pole twice. He recommended his own strategy, "three steps for a five-year visa, and more than 50 countries when you leave." It is not difficult for him to apply for a visa himself. And shared a lot of dry goods. I made up my mind to handle it myself.

Mu Yi said that calling the French embassy directly to apply for a face-to-face visa would have a better chance of getting it for more than 1 year, so I got up the courage to call and send an email to apply for a face-to-face visa, but the Guangzhou Visa Center refused, saying that I was just traveling, not under special circumstances, and would not arrange a face-to-face visa. Then I was unwilling to ask directly how to get a Schengen visa for 1 year, because it was inconvenient not to want a three-month visa. The staff suggested that I could write a letter to the visa officer in English or French when submitting the materials, explaining why I got the Schengen visa for 1 year, which might be helpful. This is so useful!
