Lin Chenglong（林成龙）was only 17 when an older friend took him to a barber shop in Foshan, Guangdong for first time, but the services they went for was far from just haircuts. In fact, It is a common understanding in China that barber shops, especially the shady kinds with women lounging around inside, often tend to be disguises for small-scaled brothels. Lin became heavily addicted to the services that such ”barber shops” provided.
In March 2009, Lin had decided that he was going to start a personal online blog to share after thoughts about his conquests. By the time Lin was arrested for spreading pornographic content in November 2010, he had attracted a readership of roughly 60,000, and had uploaded 171 photos from his phone camera and 48 posts detailing his experiences. Lin later revealed that between years 2005 to 2010, and at only 21 years of age, he had already visited the “barber shops” more than 300 times.The man has just been sentenced to a year of prison, receiving significant online attention as a result. When asked why he had decided to start such a blog, Lin expressed his deepest regret and said he had only wanted to spend time on his two favorite hobbies: keeping a blog and going to “barber shops.” The man had mistakenly thought that putting the two hobbies together was a brilliant idea. Lin told reporters that he did not expect to attract such a large audience for his updates, and had only wanted to keep the blog for his own personal enjoyment.
“佛山大炮” (fóshān dàpào, or literally Foshan Big Cannon), Lin’s blog nickname, is currently ranked first place on Baidu’s popular figures search list. Read More
