Chinese ‘Romeo’ fails to impress police as he puts plasticine panda on his Bentley to woo woman
Zhang Lin made model to try to win heart of woman whose online food company uses panda as logo for one of her products
The owner of a luxury car in southwestern China has been fined 500 yuan (HK$560) for illegally replacing his vehicle’s bonnet ornament with a model of a cartoon panda made of plasticine, mainland media reported.
Zhang Lin claimed to have made the model for his 7 million yuan Bentley Mulsanne to woo a woman whose online food company used a panda as the logo for one of her products, the Chongqing Evening News reported.
Traffic police in Chongqing issued Zhang with a motoring ticket on Monday after noticing the car was fitted with the plasticine model of a panda on its bonnet instead of the chrome Flying B ornament that should have been there.
He claimed to have fallen in love with Li Xia after noticing her at a party in October and had then begun to pursue her by buying 50,000 yuan worth of her goods, the report said.
