In 2010, Fen thought it was time to organize his heritage again, and brought out a treasure chest prepared 20 years ago and hid it somewhere in the Rocky Mountains of the United States. In his memoir, 'Thrill of the Chase,' he announced that he had hidden the treasure chest, and published 24 lines of poetry as a hint of where to hide it. The hint poems and maps were also published on Feng's Instagram account.
Mr. Feng's treasures became a hot topic mainly on the Internet such as Facebook and Twitter. For example, the Reddit forum ' r/FindingFennsGold ' on Fen's treasure has more than 7,000 registered people, 'Let's think of a place where an 80-year-old man can climb', 'What do you want to do if you get treasure?' Information is being exchanged. In addition, a site was created to collect clues and exchange information .
According to Fen, as of April 2018, nearly 350,000 people are challenging the treasure hunt. There are many people who have declared that 'the meaning of the poem was completely understood' and actually went to the Rocky Mountains in search of the treasure chest, but those who have obtained 200 million yen of treasure have not yet appeared.

Mr. Fen seems to receive an average of 100 emails a day asking him to give me definitive clues. That's why we publish a movie every Friday on YouTube that answers only one common question. In addition, a suspicious person visited the house of Mr. Fen and threatened that 'Tell me where the treasure is now and if you do not answer, there is no life'.
As a reason for publishing the treasure existence and hint poems, Mr. Feng said, 'Many people lost their jobs and despair was written in the newspaper headlines. I just wanted to give people hope. It is.'
He added, “Most of today's children play indoors. I wanted to give them the purpose of playing outdoors. The treasure hunt prompted them to enjoy their families camping and hiking in the Rocky Mountains. I am doing it,” says Feng.
