Posted to the Sunset Red Elderly Task Force, Mo Yan is cold and aloof: "It's a small matter."
As the saying goes, filial piety comes from discipline. As for ungrateful brats, you ...
Netizens: "!!!"
Netizen: "Auntie, you really have cancer! Are you okay? Go back to the hospital right away!"
Netizen: "We haven't noticed any discomfort from you for so long. You must be in a lot of pain."
One netizen commented: "Indeed, many people are now crowdfunding to scam money. They have houses, cars, and savings, but they are unwilling to use their own money to treat their illnesses. They always want others to donate money, which is taking advantage of everyone's kindness."
Netizen: "Auntie, you must be in a lot of pain."
Netizen: "Auntie, we are willing to donate money to you."
Netizen: "Auntie, why don't you get treatment? Is it because you don't have the money?"
Mo Yan smiled and shook her head at them.
"No, it's not because I don't have money, and you shouldn't donate to me. If I need medical treatment, I will sell my house and use my savings. There are still many people in this world who really need help. If everyone donates to those who truly need help, that would be cruel."
I know everyone is very kind-hearted, but I also know that if we keep taking advantage of everyone's kindness, it will be difficult for us to trust others in the future.
The reason I didn't seek treatment is because I felt that in the final days of my life, I wanted to see the world, to see places I had never been before, and to do the things I had always wanted to do.
I am very happy, very joyful, and feel very blessed.
I have met you all and received so much warmth from you.
I traveled to many places and received so much kindness.
I finally did something I felt was meaningful: I'm going to walk along the 318 National Highway and then come back. This is my last and most beautiful journey.
I'm doing well and have been taking my medication on time. I believe I can manage; I can do it. If I really feel unwell, I will definitely go to the hospital. Thank you all for your concern.
After Mo Yan finished speaking, she took out her phone and called Liu Junxuan, who was already under investigation at this time.
The reason Liu Junxuan found out was because Tang Tang overheard him cursing at Mo Yan during an argument with Tang Huayu at home.
Tangtang felt that her parents had really gone too far; how could they say such things about her grandmother?
"Mom and Dad, you've really gone too far! Do you know? Grandma has a very serious illness, and the doctor said she's going to die... Waaah..."
How could they say that about Grandma? Grandma is sick now.
"It's good that she's dead. Your grandmother should have died a long time ago."
"What did you say?" Liu Junxuan was a little incredulous. The way his mother hit him didn't look like she was sick at all.
Tangtang cried even harder, "It's true! I went to the hospital and asked. The doctor said Grandma only has a year to live, sob sob sob..."
Tang Huayu was overjoyed, while Liu Junxuan was somewhat bewildered. He was wondering how much money he would have after his mother died, or who would take care of his child after his mother's death.
He always thought his mother would only be angry for a few months, and that she would have to come back to take care of Tangtang afterward, but this...
"You've been fooled, haven't you? How could that be?"
"If you don't believe me, I'll take you there."
Tang Tang dragged Liu Junxuan to the hospital, where they happened to run into a group of people filming footage. He overheard them saying, "We've filmed a new patient this time. As long as we write something emotional, a lot of people will donate money, and we're going to make a fortune again."
"It's not like you just give patients ten or twenty thousand dollars at random. They immediately agree to take photos, then you put it on crowdfunding, and the money comes in, hahaha..."
Upon hearing this, Liu Junxuan's mind immediately clicked. He promptly offered the man a cigarette and began asking for his advice.
Once he knew what to do, Liu Junxuan felt that his life was about to reach its peak. He was initially worried that something had really happened to his mother.
What if something happens? Who will take care of his child? Who will earn money for him? But right now, he desperately hopes it's true.
He consulted the doctor, and it was indeed cancer. He then used his status as a family member to retrieve the medical records. [Family members can indeed access medical records; as long as they can prove it, the hospital will provide copies, since many insurance policies and reimbursements require photocopies.]
After taking it out, he quickly went to make copies and then started collecting all the information. In order to gain the doctor's sympathy, he even went and cried his heart out, which moved the doctor deeply.
After receiving all the materials, Liu Junxuan immediately downloaded the app, started uploading the information, began crowdfunding, and shared the information on his WeChat Moments, asking everyone to share it.
Many people saw it and forwarded it, and within a day, tens of thousands of yuan had been donated. After seeing the success, Liu Junxuan immediately asked Tang Huayu's relatives and friends to forward it as well. The two of them rarely quarreled and focused on one thing together, so that more people could see this crowdfunding information.
It feels so good to get a lot of money without doing anything. As for what to do with the money, who knows?
However, they did not expect that Mo Yan would directly call 110 (the police emergency number), and at this point the amount had reached 200,000.
200,000 yuan would be considered a high-value fraud, and Liu Junxuan was the first to be taken in for investigation. Only then did the police realize that there were so many people on those platforms. According to Liu Junxuan, when they went to the hospital, they were indeed met by several groups of kind-hearted people who came to see the patients.
Upon asking directly, it turns out that several people from different platforms are trying to obtain medical records for a small fee, then forward them online. There's even a huge industry chain behind this.
They first target intensive care units, or cancer and chronic disease wards. These patients are often the ones who need the most money, but may not have enough; in such situations, they need help even more.
When kind people brought them money and gifts, they were touched. It's perfectly normal for them to want to see their medical records, to prove they weren't scammers, and to ask for photos. They were grateful.
That industry chain was set up in this way. First, a little money was spent to hire someone to take photos, and then some daily necessities and money were given to the patients.
Next, I uploaded the materials and started looking for groups that specialize in forwarding them.
In those groups, ask them to help share this; you get one yuan for each share. Many people would be willing to do that.
Those groups are specifically designed for platforms that can help forward and promote content, such as games.
Similarly, because it exists in a gray area, many people are unaware of it.
Each share earns one yuan, but those people have one or two thousand friends on their WeChat Moments, and the speed at which they share and amass wealth is terrifying.
After forwarding it, they just wait to receive the money. Generally, they will split the money with several stakeholders, and this cycle repeats itself. They are just taking advantage of everyone's kindness.
Everyone thought, "It's just a dollar; if it can save a life, anyone would do it." The scammers took advantage of this compassion.
