4hw.com.cn: Recently, the video of two men lighting cigarettes with 100 yuan denomination of 'RMB' spread on the Internet, causing heated discussion among netizens.

On July 22, Chen, the smoking man in the video, told surging news that the 'RMB' he lit was fake money. At the beginning, he only released the video in the wechat group and was threatened after being uploaded to the network by interested people. The man said he had called the police and had been criticized and educated by the school.

On the 22nd, the police on duty at Guangzhou Xingang Road police station told surging news that the man reported to the police more than a month ago and needed to contact the police on duty on that day.

At present, the man's school has no response to the matter.

According to a 14 second video posted on the Internet, a young man with glasses lit a cigarette in his mouth with a 100 yuan RMB. Then the man handed the burning banknote to another man wearing a hat nearby to light a cigarette. At the end of the picture, the man with glasses spits out smoke and smiles at the camera.

Some netizens pointed out that the man who first lit the RMB in the video was a anchor named 'abstract with basket' in station B. Surging news search found that the anchor was also in Sina micro-blog, jitter account, initially popular image tiktok network.

On July 22, Chen told surging news that the online video was true. It was recorded in 2017. The RMB 100 used for cigarette lighting in the video was false money, saying that 'it was fun at that time'.

Chen said that he is a student at school and usually takes part-time job as a security guard in winter and summer vacation. When recording the video, he was a freshman at school. After the video was uploaded to the network, he did not expect to be threatened by netizens. He said that netizens' behavior had a certain impact on his personal life, so he reported the case at Guangzhou Xingang Road police station on June 5, 2019.

Chen introduced that he was from Shanxi and studied in a junior college in Guangzhou. For the sake of protecting himself, the school asked him to delete his video by himself. After the incident, he has been criticized and educated by the school.

Surging news called the school, but no response was received as of the press time.

On July 22, Lawyer Zhang Xinnian, vice chairman of the Beijing Municipal Legal Mediation Center for social organizations, told surging news that in accordance with articles 27 and 43 of the regulations on the administration of RMB, For acts of Deliberately Destroying renminbi, the public security organ shall give a warning and impose a fine of not more than 10000 yuan. However, Lawyer Zhang Xinnian pointed out that the scope of application of the provisions of this paragraph is limited to the currency (i.e. real currency) issued by the people's Bank of China according to law. If the man burned in the video is indeed 'counterfeit money', it is not included in this restriction.

Zhang Xinnian said that if the burned RMB is real or the RMB is originally counterfeit, but the man involved conceals the truth and falsely claims that it is real, the man involved will publish the video online to 'show off' and make it widely spread, which can be regarded as a contempt and provocation for 'RMB' or suspected of violating public security laws. If it is true after investigation by relevant departments, it can be relied on According to the provisions of the law on administrative penalties for public security, a warning, fine or administrative detention shall be imposed depending on the seriousness of the circumstances. On the contrary, if the man involved has told that the burned money is counterfeit money before lighting up, it is controversial whether his act of publishing a "counterfeit money lighting up" video is suspected of violating public security.

In addition, due to the limitations of the video content, it is not possible to judge whether the smoking man is in the 'no smoking area'. If the man involved smokes in the 'no smoking area' where smoking is restricted by the local government, he shall be punished in accordance with the relevant smoking control regulations of the local government.
