Recently, because a video blogger "hunted the wild" to pick up lobsters, and mistakenly said that "picking up lobsters at random" was "impossible", a rice shrimp breeding base located in Zitong Village, Hesha Town, Chuanshan District, Suining City, Sichuan Province, at most two to three hundred people "picked up" lobsters in one night. Yao Honglong, the person in charge of the base, said that the breeding base lost at least tens of thousands of jin of species shrimp.
According to the local police in Suining, there have been many reports of lobster theft in Zitong Village. Since May 9, a total of 5 suspects have been blocked, 1 has been given administrative punishment, and more than 60 people have been persuaded.
On May 17, after the in-depth investigation and report of the Red Star News, the incident aroused widespread social concern and netizens' heated discussion. Many netizens denounced the video bloggers who misinformed rumors and coaxed "lobster pickers". On the afternoon of the 22nd, Yao Honglong, the person in charge of the breeding base, told Red Star News that no one had gone to "pick up" lobsters, and the base was "suddenly clean".

The reporter learned that Yao Honglong's rice shrimp breeding base covers an area of more than 2000 mu. Recently, more than 100 mu of shrimp ponds were vacated due to the expansion of nearby reservoirs. As they were busy with other work, the base staff had no time to collect clean lobsters, and no one stopped them. As a result, some netizens released videos of comments such as "picking up lobsters casually" and "picking up lobsters endlessly", which triggered a flood of people "picking up lobsters", "at least two or three hundred people a night".
"I worked hard for a year and watched others pick up the shrimps." Yao Honglong was very sad about this. He said that he had lost at least tens of thousands of kilograms of species shrimps, worth hundreds of thousands of yuan. In order to prevent those who came to "pick up" lobsters in the middle of the night, he and several shareholders stayed up late on duty for several days in succession, and sometimes stayed up all night.
On May 22, Yao Honglong told Red Star News that the local government and the police were also actively dealing with this matter, and issued a rumor dispelling message. He also left a message under the popular video "Can't come to pick up", but failed to stop the phenomenon of "coaxing to pick up".
Yao Honglong said, "After the Red Star News investigation report was released, it had a great impact in the local area. No one came to pick up lobsters that night (the night of the 17th).". He noticed that many media followed up or reprinted his experience, and the local We Media also reprinted it one after another, which also ranked first in the local hot search in the same city.
Yao Honglong once said that he intended to punish some bloggers who misunderstood the video, but at present the base is busy planting seedlings, and he has no time to consult and deal with it. At present, the base has calmed down without subsequent losses, which is the best. He said that he really felt sad and angry before, and now he is reconsidering whether to pursue responsibility.
