On April 18, some consumers reported that Simba and his anchors were suspected of selling fake YPL yoga pants in the live broadcast room, selling more than 6 million yuan in one night. According to public information, YPL is a brand registered with the State Administration for Industry and Commerce of Australia Health Industry Limited and is positioned as a trend leader in a new generation of functional sportswear.
On April 22, the brand involved in the matter YPL issued a statement saying that the products sold by the anchor "Egg Egg" of the Xinxuan team in the live broadcast room did not belong to the category of YPL sales, and the packaging of the goods was suspected of plagiarism, and the product distribution company and the production company would be held accountable according to law, and their legitimate rights and interests would be protected through legal means.
On the evening of April 22, Xinxuan's official account issued a statement saying that the brand party "Harbin Aoshengyuan Trading Co., Ltd." provided Xinxuan with authorization links and related certification materials, and if there were any violations of laws and regulations, Xinxuan would be held responsible according to law, and Xinxuan would always stand with consumers.
In the early morning of April 23, the official account of YPL Sports Fashion Products issued a statement again: "The ownership of the YPL trademark of the counterfeit products is our company", and posted the relevant trademark registration certificate and trademark transfer certificate; some documents mention that the trademark registered by "a company in Harbin" is a self-created graphic mark, which is very different from the products sold. At the same time, the statement said that the official statement channel of the YPL is the "YPL sports tide" official micro, and some network accounts involve the release of other stamped documents of the company, which will be strictly investigated to the end.
On April 23, Xinxuan Group released preliminary investigation results, saying that the dispute was caused by a dispute between the trademark holders before and after the transfer of the trademark, which was not a fake, and would handle a full refund for all consumers who purchased YPL products through the small yellow car link in the Xinxuan live broadcast room.
On April 23, YPL responded, saying that it had never had any business cooperation with Harbin Shengyuan Trading Co., Ltd. and that there was no trademark authorization; the authorization letter mentioned by Xin Xuan was a forgery official seal and would pursue the legal liability of the counterfeiter.
On the evening of April 23, YPL posted an apology to Simba on its official account, saying that it has been properly resolved and apologized for the impact on relevant companies and netizens and Simba.
