80K Brother flaunts his wealth (Mop.com)
@Jackie_郑文’s dinner bill (Weibo)

Nickname for notorious Weibo user @Jackie_郑文, who posted a receipt for a RMB 80,000 (USD $12,383) dinner in 2011.

On September 2, 2011, Weibo user @Jackie_郑文 posted a photo of the receipt from a dinner he shared with nine friends. The bill included exorbitantly priced exotic dishes, including giant salamander (a nationally-protected endangered species), Australian lobster, king crab, Kobe beef, and 15-year-old Maotai. The total cost was over 80,000 yuan.

Details from "Jackie's" microblog account suggested he was a student at the Central Party School, and there was speculation that he belonged to the rich second generation. Angry netizens dubbed him "80K Brother," after the price he seemed to be so proud of.

In his own defense, Jackie wrote, "The dinner was so expensive because the prices were so high. I had no choice."

As of May 2, 2016, Jackie's Weibo account has been wiped clean of all identifying information.

The furious reaction to Jackie's conspicuous consumerism mirrors the uproar over Guo Meimei months earlier.
