# Remember That Douyu Streamer Super Xiaojie

I remember back then there was a Douyu streamer called Super Xiaojie who wanted to open a computer shop and harvest his followers as "leeks" [scam them]. But he overplayed his hand.

**First controversy:** Pinduoduo knife game. Six thousand viewers in his stream tried to help him slash for a phone, but he never got it.

**Second controversy:** Mischievous kids deleted his game records. While he was out, his family brought relatives' children to his place. His computer equipment was damaged and his world-ranking top 30 game progression was deleted. He'd repeatedly said no visitors, but his mom treated it like a favor to give out.

This resonated with people. Combined with his previous good deeds—installing free WiFi, building free gaming rooms, funding a Hope elementary school—his reputation exploded. The internet almost canonized him.

**His regular Friday segment:** "Grit your teeth" and answer electronics questions. Occasionally recommend products. Followers thank him. A virtuous cycle. Through this, he networked with many manufacturers, took payment for ads without disclosing it.

Once on stream he said: "Many ask where to buy computers. The market is chaotic. Why don't I do it myself? I have price advantages."

Viewers asked: "Aren't you afraid crooked dealers will scam you?"

He swore he wasn't. The image of a good guy fighting scammers against all odds was cemented. With good reputation and connections, his computer shop became famous before even opening.

**Opening day:** Viewers were shocked at the configuration lists. The computers were no different from what scammers sold.

Questioned scammers → understood scammers → became a scammer himself.

He claimed full control, but stock came from Slanda warehouse—Changsha's notorious prebuilt computer scam company. From an omniscient perspective, he was just a partner. Inventory and customer service were all handled by them. The promises he made were just for hype.

He said he'd reform the market, but inventory came from known scammers. Followers lost it.

In just days, the computer shop had jokers and loyal viewers flooding his stream, hoping he'd admit fault. Instead, he doubled down, saying he had full control. When configurations were unreasonable, he said they were fine.

Under public pressure, he shut down the shop and compensated customers.

It wasn't over.

Viewers checked through Enterprise Check and found: **he held no shares. Slanda's boss held 51%, and another 49% was held by someone named Peng Lanqiang.**

**Peng Lanqiang had theft convictions.**

The supermarket owner interviewed by TV during the free WiFi installation days was also named Peng Lanqiang. They had a good relationship—likely nominee shareholding.

Then they discovered: Peng Lanqiang's fellow inmates from his theft case all appeared in his stream. One called Liu Zhuo was a room manager in his stream and called himself a neighborhood security guard.

Baidu Tieba veterans exposed: Super Xiaojie had four childhood friends. Peng Lanqiang and Liu Zhuo were among them.

During childhood New Years: with only twenty yuan in allowance from five people, they couldn't afford internet cafes. They bought pineapple beer, lay on grass drinking it. The grass was too prickly, so they played in a friend's yard. It was so cold they accidentally set the grandmother's wooden chair on fire.

Later, one friend studied media abroad. When he returned, Xiaojie helped him find work. Xiaojie said: "In my heart, I always owed him a chair."

Another of the "Five Tigers" opened a BBQ restaurant, invited friends to eat—went broke from freeloaders. Xiaojie claimed he only went at the opening; someone must've been constantly eating for free.

**Coincidentally,** the BBQ restaurant he recommended on stream—the owner was one of Peng Lanqiang's theft accomplices.

If that's a coincidence, it's too coincidental.

**Everything proved: Super Xiaojie is a liar.**

The computer shop, his four childhood friends—he lied about all of it.

Viewers began investigating his background.

By his own account: graduated from Central South University at 22, started streaming that year. Before streaming: seven or eight jobs—art store worker, computer mall technician, movie projectionist, honey salesman, programmer, Hunan TV intern.

**Too many jobs. Timeline completely doesn't add up.**

Central South University Alumni Association: no such person.

Based on stream content, viewers found: his English is poor, doesn't even know H₂O formula. His multi-year programmer persona was proven false—he can't even code.

**The final nail:** Self-exposure.

An old viewer pointed out: his NGA and Baidu Tieba IDs are the same. That Tieba account posted in 2012: "Been staying home for nearly ten years."

**By timeline: he only has junior high school education.**

His claimed Central South University degree? All lies.

In just over ten days, viewers completely exposed this fake, high-education good guy.

Stripped of his disguise: just a BS-spouting junior high dropout streamer.

Later he posted a long reply, admitting education fraud. The lies were just vanity speaking. He described a series of childhood bullying experiences—implying: because he didn't want to talk about childhood, he lied. Then needed more lies to cover up.

Viewers didn't buy it.

The boy who cried wolf: believed the first time, believed the second time, nobody believes the third time.

Who knows if this is just fishing for sympathy to salvage his collapsing image?

Originally wanted to open a small shop and make his fans popcorn snacks [profit from followers]. Instead, he overplayed and lost his entire base.

His stream heat plummeted. He'll never return to his former peak.
