Li Shuangyong, from Shandong province, who is known online as Tangzhu, has attracted more than one million followers on mainland social media.
According to Jiupai News, Li was born into a rural family.
At 36, his fish farming business collapsed, leaving him in debt and ending his marriage.
He called himself a “life loser” and said he spent his days feeling lost and aimless.

During that low point, Li came across the hit Japanese manga “One-Punch Man”, which inspired him.
