Three Sheep Network, based in eastern Anhui province, boasts top influencers Zhang Qingyan and Zhang Kaiyang, who are twin brothers.
The former, better known as Crazy Younger Brother Yang, has 95 million followers, a big drop from his more than 100 million followers before the network was punished.
The latter, going by the handle @Crazy Older Brother Yang, has 10 million followers.
The network, established by the Zhang brothers and a partner in 2021, owns several popular social media accounts and signs hundreds of live-streamers.
The company came under fire in September 2024 for selling mooncakes they claimed were a Hong Kong brand and made in Hong Kong. However, an investigation by regulators in Hefei, Anhui province, found they were produced in southern Guangdong province and had never been sold in Hong Kong.
