Also, Chinese search engines and social media cannot find any evidence that the project co-founder 许芳呈 exists.
I have a friend from Fuzhou, Fujian Province, who has helped me with this research.
Wow I've been following this project's progress and what you're saying here is blowing my mind. So you're saying that this project is illegitimate? Or are you saying that they are bending the truth in regards to the real facts? Everything seemed good with this one, would be a real shame if this is proven to be an intentionally misleading project...
I had high hopes for this one.
P.S thanks for your determined research, the community is improved every day with people who have the resources, doing research like this.
