As several others have said you have chosen to promote Enfly and this is your choice whether altruistic or otherwise.

The fact is simply as I an others have said there is NO legal rule anywhere in China which states that any Foreign Expert must be employed through a third party. As you are very new in China I will give you a certain amount of slack but considering you are western educated your analytical thinking skills seem to thin on the ground.

You need to rewind a little and start thinking about how agencies work. Enfly is well known in Chengdu and its environs. As I said I have been in Chengdu six years. They simply recruit oral english teachers for government high schools in surrounding towns and counties. The schools charge each student a fee, out of that they pay Enfly and you and of course they will make something out of this themselves. If you ask one of your students they will openly tell you how much they pay, do the maths and work out your salary. You will likely be dumbfounded. That is all I will say.

Speaking generally the police officers (if they are actually police and not the 'police' of one of Enfly's schools and every educational establishment in China has 'police') will be involved in this equation somewhere. This is particularly apparent in areas where there are teachers working not on 'z' visas and resident permits. However if you are not on one of these and given Enfly's track record I would be highly surprised if you are then you really are at the mercy of them and if something goes wrong I hope you either have a credit card with a big credit limit or someone back home to help you.

Only last night I was having dinner with our FAO and showed him your comments and apart from almost falling over laughing, his first two words were "ridiculous lies". Enough said.

Good luck, if Enfly works for you then so be it but I do urge you to stop being so cocksure and in China question and double question everything that is told you. You are far removed from anywhere and anything you know.
