Controversial Chinese billionaire Chen Guangbiao created a scene in
New York by distributing US$100 bills to the homeless recently.
Followed around by cameras, the eccentric businessman approached homeless people one by one to give away free money.
Chen Guangbiao is certainly no stranger to publicity stunts, billing himself as China’s ‘most generous billionaire’.
He recently posted a full-page advertisement in the New York Times
welcoming poor Americans living in Manhattan to a free lunch where he
would also give out US$300 in cash to each.
He has also done similar stunts in other countries in the past. Other notable Chen Guangbiao efforts include trying to sell canned fresh air, and spraying a fire extinguisher into his mouth.
Despite this, one man is seen simply walking away from the handout, unconvinced by Guangbiao’s demeanor.
