The old man is a retired middle school teacher. He sold his house in Shanghai and bought a villa in the suburbs. Because he likes flowers and plants, he spent 1. 1.00 million yuan to buy a camphor tree and plant it in his yard. Later, because the camphor tree grew bigger, he negotiated with the property and moved it to the public green space. Later, camphor trees grew fiercely, completely blocking the sunshine of his home. He asked the landscaping department if there were any procedures to go if these trees were pruned. The result was rejected by these departments, leaving him to deal with it himself. So the old man pruned this camphor tree with reference to the pruning methods of other trees in the property. After cutting off the crown of the tree, he left only a trunk two meters high.

The old man feels very wronged.

The old man thought that he used to love burning flowers and trees, but he didn't expect to be considered as cutting trees, because he saw that the residential property also used this method when pruning these books, and some of them only had 1.6-meter-high trunks, which were restored to their original state two years later, so they couldn't be considered as cutting trees. At present, this matter has also caused a lot of discussion. Some people think that this punishment is too unreasonable. They would rather let these trees block the light of ordinary people than cut them down.
