Recently, a tofu seller in Ya'an, Sichuan, who looks like Ma Long, has attracted attention. In a live broadcast, he was wearing a red sportswear and selling tofu, and he also made Ma Long's classic heart gesture with both hands. Some netizens said, "It was so exciting that I thought Ma Long was selling tofu."

On August 19, Jiupai News contacted Li Maolin, a tofu maker from Ya'an. He said that being called "Sichuan Ya'an Ma Long Fenlong" was a coincidence.

He usually wears red sportswear, and wears an apron when he sells tofu at a stall, which covers his chest and lower body tightly. During a live broadcast, a fan asked him to take off his apron. At that time, everyone thought that his profile looked like Ma Long, and then he imitated Ma Long's iconic gesture of making a heart shape with his hands, which attracted a lot of attention.

Li Maolin said that his family's tofu business has been running for 40 years. He started to take over the business the year before last. He makes a fixed amount of tofu every day and goes home to rest after selling it. Therefore, being told that he is like Ma Long will not have any impact on the business.

"I am very grateful to those who follow me." Li Maolin said that the content of his live broadcast is selling tofu, which is relatively not that interesting, but he is still happy to receive so much support.

Regarding the future, he said that he would not do live streaming to sell goods, but would continue to concentrate on selling tofu. "It is easy to decide to give up something, but it is difficult to have the courage to stick to it," he said, hoping to make his family's tofu business better and better.
