An eccentric Chinese multimillionaire's latest venture-- selling what smoggy Beijing dearly needs after the past two weeks -- fresh air.<br/> <br />On Wednesday Chen Guangbiao and his colleagues took to the streets to give away hundreds of cans of fresh air-- purportedly collected from far-flung and pristine regions of China.<br/> <br />Though it may not be the cure for Beijing's ongoing air pollution problem, Chen hopes the stunt will send a message.<br/> <br />(SOUNDBITE)(Mandarin) CHINESE BILLIONAIRE CHEN GUANGBIAO SAYING:<br/> <br />"I'm selling this clean air to remind everyone to protect our environment. Selling this air, I am using an exaggerated method, a principle, to tell everyone that if we don't start protecting the air in our environment, in ten years our descendants will all be wearing gas masks."<br/> <br />Beijing's air quality often registers far into the unhealthy zone, but this month has shocked citizens with the worst ever recorded smog.<br/> <br />Chen started his campaign last September.<br/> <br />Footage provided by his office shows a truck which sold his cans as it made its way across the country.<br/> <br />Footage provided by him shows people holding the cans performing a slow dance and scooping the air inside.<br/> <br />Proceeds from selling the cans for five yuan each will be donated to charity.
