Listening to Chen Yang read the content of the constitution, netizens were completely shocked this time.
They initially thought the idea of buying an island and establishing a country was a joke, but ended up even reviewing the Constitution.
After reading the Constitution, Chen Yang said, "It's getting late, I'll grab something to eat first. I will continue to update you on the country's foundation. Goodbye, everyone."
With that, he ended the live broadcast.
The video of the live broadcast was immediately downloaded by the marketing account, and the most important parts were edited and sent out.
# Crowdfunding to buy an island and establish a country, drafting a constitution: the 194th country in the world is about to be born! #
"This anchor is serious, he is very determined!"
"Seriously, the Constitution is out, it's amazing!"
"Before watching, I had no idea, but after seeing it, I'm intrigued!"
"Yan Guo, the name is simple but promising."
"Flag, national emblem, country name, constitution - now we just need to buy the island and establish the country!"
"This anchor is the most dedicated activist I've ever seen!"
"I've read the content of the Constitution and it seems legitimate."
"I'm getting excited about this!"
"I'll invest 13 dollars! Come on, anchor, let's buy that island!"
The video is becoming increasingly popular, and the number of likes keeps growing.
Therefore, a marketing account reposted on other forums.
Initially, the popularity was confined to Douyin, but quickly spread throughout the internet.
Over time, news about Chen Yang's crowdfunding to buy an island and establish a country gradually became hot topics on Weibo, Bihu, and Tieba.°
Even many entrepreneurs saw it.
Some were intrigued after reading.
Although there are many islands available for purchase and sale, there is only one in the world that can be used to establish a nation!
However, they were merely impressed and did not consider buying.
They have financial resources, buying an island for a few million is nothing.
But their dilemma is that they cannot be as carefree as Chen Yang.
Chen Yang is an ordinary citizen. He can simply use crowdfunding and buy the island with great enthusiasm, even proclaiming his goal of establishing a country.
Even if this kind of initiative goes viral on the internet, at most it will cause some heated debate, but it will not raise serious political issues.
However, they, entrepreneurs with fortunes of hundreds of millions, do not have the freedom or courage to do the same.
Therefore, despite the unique value of this island with the potential to become an independent nation, they dare not consider the purchase.
But there is an even more crucial reason for their hesitation.
The fact is that issues like founding a country cannot be accomplished with words alone.
This demands vast amounts of money, great talent, and long-term planning.
Having money alone is not enough.
Therefore, although Chen Yang's actions may seem outrageous, anyone with discernment knows that he cannot simply build a country on his own.
It's completely unrealistic!
And what's the difference between that deserted island and the concrete jungle?
Just to develop it minimally, huge amounts of money would have to be invested.
Building a country there is like throwing money away.
No one with common sense would do such a thing.
Meanwhile, the Public Security Department of Huayuan County, where Chen Yang is located, has received several alarm calls.
The video is going viral. Although many netizens are supportive, there are still some people who believe that Chen Yang is defrauding money and have asked the police to arrest him!
Frankly, it's pure jealousy.
Although they don't know exactly how much crowdfunding Chen Yang has received, they can deduce from the video's popularity that it will definitely be no less than a few million.
With just one video, he earned millions in less than a day. That's really envy-inducing.
"Understood, we'll investigate."
Given the scope of the case, the police hotline contacted the director of the station directly.
Zhong Chenggong is the director of the Huayuan Road Police Station. After receiving this case, he couldn't help but find it all quite strange.
Crowdfunding to buy an island and establish a country...
What is this guy thinking?
He gathered all the police officers from the station and made a brief statement.
"Buying an island and founding a country? Does that sound like fraud?"
"Yes, I saw the news in the search and it was brought to my attention."
"That guy is really something."
Zhong Chenggong said, "First, verify Chen Yang's identity, locate his address, and then go talk to him to better understand the situation. Lao Wang, you will be in charge of this case. Find him before tomorrow and get all the details."
"Understood, I'm on it."
Lao Wang nodded confidently.
They left the office and, after a quick photo comparison, easily located Chen Yang's information and address.
Lao Wang checked the clock, it was already night.
"Old Wu, how about we grab something to eat before we go after him?"
"Sure, sounds like a good idea."
Both were veteran police officers with plenty of experience.
This kind of case usually wasn't very complicated, and under normal circumstances, it wasn't necessary to act immediately.
All this seemed like a lot of fuss for something that was probably just a hoax.
