on the morning of august 26, luo yonghao officially released his previously pre-announced "important article" on his personal weibo account. the full text is about 15,000 words, and is combined with a video to respond to recent external controversies, such as how "more than 600 million" became 1.3 billion.
luo yonghao said that so far, "true repayment" has actually repaid a total of 824 million yuan, far exceeding the "debt of more than 600 million yuan" previously announced. the main reason is that during the repayment process, due to additional compensation caused by various lawsuits and disputes, as well as various fines caused by late payment, the total debt increased by nearly 100 million yuan. in addition, some situations that occurred at the end of 2022 also generated new debts.
the main points are as follows:
1. so far, "zhen huan chuan" has actually repaid a total of 824 million yuan
the 824 million yuan of debts that have been repaid include:
1. started a live streaming e-commerce company in april 2020, and repaid debts of 548 million yuan with real cash after tax;
2. rmb 180 million from the transfer of the mobile phone team and intellectual property rights to bytedance in 2018 (previously announced on social media);
3. in 2018, after smartisan technology’s funding chain was cut and production lines were shut down, i signed a personal unlimited guarantee to allow the factory to resume operations, and used the remaining materials to make complete machines to pay off the 66 million yuan debt;
4. from 2018 to the end of 2019, smartisan technology's debt settlement team sold smartisan technology's remaining assets in various ways to repay debts of nearly rmb 30 million.
2. regarding the newly added debt of rmb 600 million
when smartisan technology raised funds, it received 300 million yuan in state-owned capital investment and 300 million yuan in loans, totaling 600 million yuan. when the "true return" began in 2018, this part of the debt would not be incurred until four years later.
luo yonghao decided: before the actual date of the state-owned capital debt, just like the first season of "true return", he once again took the initiative to give up debt restructuring negotiations (generally speaking, the principal repayment rate of debt restructuring when chinese companies go bankrupt is about 10% to 30%), and directly promised the state-owned capital creditors: in addition to the 300 million yuan of loans, the 300 million yuan of investment losses will also be treated as debts, and we will repay 100% of the 600 million yuan principal in cash. in fact, this part of the debt has been quietly repaid for more than a year, and will be fully repaid in the next few years.
3. abandon the "silent repayment" plan that has been implemented for more than a year and resume social media operations and updates
luo yonghao also said, "next, my team and i will simply go all out, stir up trouble, and use all legal, compliant and business ethical methods to "hype up" the situation, and use all means to increase cash income and pay off the remaining 500 million yuan of debt as soon as possible."
the things luo yonghao will do immediately include but are not limited to:
1. fully resume the update and operation of social media accounts, this time operating on nine online platforms simultaneously;
2. partially resume the recording of variety shows;
3. fully resume accepting commercial advertisements and endorsements;
4. partially resume the business of hosting weddings and funerals;
5. fully resume inviting cultural celebrities and film and television stars to the live broadcast room to communicate and promote products;
6. fully resume the creation of the commercial comedy blockbuster and serious documentary "true return" with the same name.
the weibo platform shows that the "luo yonghao's rumor-refuting account" that was previously registered due to the need to dispel rumors after announcing his retirement from the internet has been renamed "luo yonghao·niu hulu". at the same time, the weibo account posted a message on the 22nd, indicating that a heavy article of about 15,000 words will be published next monday (26th), accompanied by a personal "photo of concubine xi returning to the palace."
on the 22nd, luo yonghao replied to netizens, "it's been more than two years... with these 15,000 words, i will return to the social media world, open accounts on a total of nine platforms, and go all out..." this means that after the end of "true return", luo yonghao may "return" to the social media platform again.
tianyancha app shows that luo yonghao is associated with more than 30 companies, 10 of which are in existence or in operation. in addition to holding shares and serving in smartisan technology-related companies such as smartisan technology (chengdu) co., ltd., beijing smartisan digital technology co., ltd., and chengdu yewang digital technology co., ltd., he also holds shares in partnerships such as guangzhou gaide paihang information technology co., ltd., beijing elephant landian technology co., ltd., and beijing yunshang zhuozhi consulting center (limited partnership).

luo yonghao's past entrepreneurial history is rich and colorful, covering multiple fields such as education and training, technology products, social networking platforms, and live streaming. in 2000, luo yonghao entered new oriental to teach english with a high school degree and began his career. in 2006, luo yonghao founded the social networking platform niubo.com. in 2012, luo yonghao founded smartisan technology and entered the smartphone industry. smartisan technology has launched a number of mobile phones and related products, but the development has not been smooth sailing. after a series of events such as product launches, equity pledges, equity freezes, business plan adjustments, and restrictions on consumption, smartisan technology ultimately failed to achieve the expected success in the market, but instead owed huge debts. in 2020, riding on the east wind of live streaming, luo yonghao still relied on his personal charm and influence to enter the live streaming industry, selling products through live streaming to repay debts.
after the debt was basically paid off, in june 2022, luo yonghao suddenly announced through his personal weibo that he would start a business again, "tomorrow i will officially quit weibo and all social platforms." the weibo account was then renamed "make friends live room" and given to make friends. however, in order to clarify rumors, luo yonghao opened a new weibo account "luo yonghao's rumor refuting account" in july 2022 to clarify rumors.

this time, while announcing his return to the social platform, "luo yonghao's rumor-busting account" was renamed "luo yonghao·niu hulu", which quickly attracted widespread attention from the public and the media.
