Begging on the streets is a competitive business, it seems. But this homeless man is leading the way in innovation with a specially made sign that switches between messages appealing for change.

On his board is a message intended to evoke a warm response in passers-by who will, with any luck, throw him some coins.
纸牌上写的字旨在唤起路人的同情心,给他一点零钱。
Can I borrow the car next weekend?
下周末我能借你的车嘛?
The target has has still not emptied their pockets of loose change, and the sign is transformed again to reveal yet another message.
路人无动于衷时,流浪汉就会再掀起一块纸板,展示出另一句话。
For a third time, he jiggles the cardboard display to show another comical statement.
再掀一次,纸板上的内容又变了。
'My family has been kidnapped by ninjas. I need money for karate lessons,' it reads.

Some people pointed out that such an ingenious invention could earn the begger enough money for a modest home. Others suggested that he could follow the lead of homeless man Ted Williams whose deep voice propelled him to internet stardom after being featured on Youtube.
有些人说,如此有创意的发明,足以让这个流浪汉挣够可以买一个小房子的钱,其他人说他可以效仿那位有着“金嗓子”的乞丐,通过自己的才艺来改变贫困处境。
