PHOTOS: Legendary Xiamen 'wumao' covers entire car with five-mao coins

Who says being an internet troll is unrewarding?

Wumao, the apocryphal army of professional internet trolls paid five mao (RMB 0.5) by the government for every nationalistic post they make online, are starting to strut their riches around the country.

First this "mystery man" in Wenzhou bought a new iPhone using nothing but wad after wad of five-mao notes.

Now, in Xiamen, Fujian one of his comrades-in-arms has covered every inch of his car with five dazzling five mao coins. Netizens have roundly decried the decorating style as that of an out-and-out tuhao, or uncultured nouveau-riche.
