Man fishes for investors around lake
On Thursday, a weirdly-dressed man, wearing a straw rain cape and sunglasses, was found fishing at West Lake, a popular tourist site in Hangzhou of East China's Zhejiang, drawing a huge crowd.
It turns out that he is a worker from a local IT company, and was trying to attract investors. He carried a sign on his back to advertize his company, and said he was there "fishing" for a 1 billion yuan investment.
He said his company has innovations that will transform the world, and requires a large investment to make it work. He was persuaded to leave by law enforcement workers in the end.
