I don't buy it either and I have a lot of questions.

The ownership of the brand itself is rather sus. The brand has four logos, three of which were registered by a company that belongs to Xie Yihua (90%) and her sister Xie Yiwen (10%)

This is the same Xie Yihua that worked as ZZH's former music manager. You can even check her baidu page to confirm.

Her company currently has 73 registered (and pending) trademarks under several categories, from bedsheets to clothes, shoes, jewelry etc. Around 50 of these trademarks are for Zhang Sanjian logos alone. The rest are for ELPV, 7HL and EHZ logos, three out of the four logos used in the EHz.Z merch itself and the online store. You can look this up yourself on 爱企查。

So why doesn't ZZH own the logos of his own brands? The reasoning seems to be that he can no longer use his name to open a company or register trademarks. Not only do I have a lot of questions about the legalities, of whether there is anything under the law that would support this claim (if you can find one let me know) but also...if this is the case, then why not use his mother's name instead? We know it's possible cause the fourth logo used in the brand (Haizhe handsign) was registered by a company that belongs to her (99% stake) and a Chen Qunying (1% stake)

This is often used as "proof" that ZZH does own this brand, but it still bugs me that his mother didn't just register the rest of the logos herself.

Currently they are selling via a store set up on wechat (if you have the app just search EHz.Z) and I have questions about the ownership of the store itself. Wechat shows you the owner of a store right off the bat.

And you can see here that the store is owned by a company called 上海爱禾服装有限公司, and if you look it up you'll see that it isn't owned by ZZH or even his mother. It's owned by someone named Chen Liying (88% stakes) and Xie Yihua (12% stakes). Why is this woman's name all over the brand that allegedly belongs to ZZH? While his name is nowhere to be found?

A lot of the marketing was done through gossip disseminated by so-called insider fans who had access to information that nobody else has. Allegedly, these fans (especially ones with large followings) were approached by certain people claiming to have connections with ZZH. This network of so-called insiders then disseminated information to the rest of the ignorant plebs in the fandom especially through private groups. This gossip network, plus the essays published by "Zhang Sanjian", were used to craft a specific narrative around ZZH: that he was giving up on his case, that there was no chance of his name being cleared, that he suffered severe financial losses after 813, became utterly destitute and can no longer afford to support himself. There were unfounded claims of him being sued by brands he had active contracts with during 813 for millions of RMB. I found these really strange at the time because you can actually find these things on websites like qichacha, and up to this day there are no recorded lawsuits against ZZH. At the time I was wondering who was spreading these rumours and what their purpose was. I still don't have an answer to this, but I find this even more interesting now, considering all that has happened recently.

So again, the story is that ZZH is utterly broke, that there is little to no chances of him clearing his name and going back to being an actor, and the only thing he can do is to sell merch. This is why they attack anyone who casts doubt on the brand. This is the only way for ZZH to make a living now! Why are you people destroying the only source of income he has??!! 😡😡😡

So my biggest question here is that if the whole schtick of the brand is that it is poor, destitute ZZH's only source of income, it implies that this is his business, and he profits from it. So why is the store not under his name or his mom's? The reasoning of his fans is pretty problematic. They say that his music manager Xie Yihua is the one handling everything for him, and even lends her name for the business so he doesn't have to use his own. And this is possible because they have super secret special contracts! So don't worry! Even if it looks like other people own the brand, the money still goes to ZZH! You're supporting him by buying!

Am I supposed to consider this an acceptable explanation? This sounds more like tax fraud than anything else.
