Share to: Comments welcome, I would like to comment. On the banner held by this man, the reporter saw his name - Hou Qinliang. In 2005, he read about Chen Guangbiao's deeds in a Hangzhou newspaper and admired him greatly, hoping to achieve similar success. After finding Chen Guangbiao's Nanjing address online, Hou Qinliang came to Nanjing on December 8th, searching for Chen Guangbiao according to the online address, hoping to get his help for a 1.5 million yuan loan to start a business. However, he was disappointed. "I have no other choice but to make this banner and hang it in the subway, asking kind-hearted people to help tell Chen Guangbiao," Hou Qinliang said. However, on the banner, Hou Qinliang did not specify what he intended to do with the loan. But he proposed that the project he was about to undertake had great market potential and promised to repay 10% of the loan and interest in the first year, 40% of the loan and interest in the second year, and clear all payments in the third year. He even expressed his determination to turn his product into a brand and get featured on CCTV Channel Seven's Wealth Path program.

What exactly does Hou Qinliang want to use this money for? At first, he was reluctant to disclose, calling it a trade secret. But after repeated questioning by the reporter, Hou Qinliang took out a small plastic bucket with a red lid, which contained several small fish about 10 centimeters long at the bottom. He told the reporter that he borrowed money to farm these small fish and process them. He claimed to have done detailed market research and was confident in the future of his products. However, his words were questioned by onlookers. One woman directly pointed out: "You are now holding such a banner, showing these few small fish, saying your product will be popular in the future. Not only would Chen Guangbiao not believe you, but neither can we."

According to reports, at around 11:30 am yesterday, the reporter saw a man from Zaozhuang, Shandong in the underground passage of the Xinjiekou subway station. He hung a banner in front of an unused shop in the subway station passage, aiming to ask Chen Guangbiao to help with a loan or guarantee a 1.5 million yuan loan.
