On the afternoon of September 2nd, Mr. Ge, who was passing by the bridge again, noticed that there were more people in the river. "No one suspected it was fake. Ordinary people couldn't distinguish whether it was gold or not, and some even picked up 'gold' by fire, which would melt. Some people analyzed that there may be gold mines upstream, and when a flood occurred, sand washed down. However, I have never heard of gold in this river since I was young. It is said that there were also people who collected gold at the scene for 100 yuan per gram, but I did not see it."

With the increasing number of videos related to "picking up gold in the river" on the internet, coupled with the unverified dissemination of some "big accounts", many netizens have analyzed and speculated about where "gold" comes from. Some netizens have also left messages asking, "Where is the location?" "Is it possible to go now?" Moreover, after seeing the online news, they immediately set off to South Korea's Jicun.

Mr. Ge said that on the late night of September 3rd at around 12 o'clock, several young people drove overnight from the Ming Tombs in Changping to the Zhoukou store in Fangshan. They brought detection lights and metal detectors, hoping to join the fun of "overnight wealth". "Today, a warning line has been set up on the riverside, but there are still people looking for it with metal detectors. They should have seen the police refute the rumors and probably just played around. There shouldn't be any gold, some people have found scrap iron, while others have found pebbles," said Ge Xiansheng.

According to a report from the Fangshan police on September 3rd, it was recently reported online that there were broken gold particles in a river channel 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.

On the evening of June 1st, the US Senate passed a bill on the federal government's debt ceiling and budget, and the flame of the US debt bomb was temporarily extinguished at the last moment. The two parties in the United States have staged an extreme tug of war over the US debt bomb. Some experts believe that the US debt crisis is the result of the reckless politics promoted by the US dollar hegemony, and the underlying cause of this crisis is the highly polarized political system of the US. Since the end of World War II, the US Congress has adjusted the debt ceiling more than a hundred times. The recurring debt crisis will not only have a catastrophic impact on the US economy and people's livelihoods, but also continuously erode the value of US dollar assets such as government credit and US bonds, bringing significant and far-reaching impacts to the global economic landscape. 【
