Just now, according to a report from @ Ping An Beijing Fangshan: Recently, there were rumors online that broken gold had appeared in a river in Zhoukoudian Town, Fangshan District, and nearby residents went to search for gold. After investigation by the Fangshan police, it was found that in order to increase the popularity of his personal social media account, Wei scattered brass particles online in a river channel in the Zhoukoudian area on September 1, and used "buying gold" as a gimmick by the river to attract some nearby residents to pick them up. After the on-site related videos were disseminated online, they attracted social attention. Wei's behavior seriously disrupted social order and caused adverse effects, and has been criminally investigated by the Fangshan police. The case is under further investigation.
