According to China Daily, Mr Wei is not the airport's only resident, and in 2018 as many as six people were thought to be living like him - with one man 'notorious' for blasting Chinese opera music from his radio.
The world's most famous airport dweller is Iranian Mehran Karimi Nasseri, who lived in the Terminal One of the Paris Charles de Gaulle for a whopping 18 years - from 1988 until 2006 when he became hospitalised.
Refugee Mehran Karimi Nasseri, on whom the 2004 film The Terminal is based on, was forced to take up residence in the Parisian airport after being sent here, his last port of departure, by the British authorities due to a failure in seeking entry into Britain.
