[Explanation] On March 31, Zhou Libo v. Tang Shuang's infringement liability dispute case and Tang Shuang v. Zhou Libo's reputation dispute case were pronounced in Shanghai Changning District People's Court on the same day.

The Changning District People's Court of Shanghai Municipality decided in the first instance that the two parties ceased to infringe each other and apologized to each other in writing within ten days from the date of the judgment. Zhou Lebo's attorney Tu Lei said that both parties were sentenced to constitute infringement, while Tang Shuang was required to pay Hu Jie's spiritual damage comfort money and economic loss of 8,000 yuan. Whether to appeal in the future requires consultation with Zhou Libo and Hu Jie.

Whether or not to make a voice, and where to make a voice, I have to communicate with Zhou Libo and Hu Jie before making a decision.

[Explanation] Tang Shuang made good friends with Zhou Libo and Hu Jie. In 2018, Zhou Libo turned his head against two people after being acquitted in a "drug possession case" in the United States. In July 2018, Zhou Libo posted a recording on Weibo, pointing out that the drug was Tang Shuang. In September 2018, Tang Shuang released a video saying that the video proved that the drug was held by Zhou Libo. In October 2018, Tang Shuang officially entrusted his lawyer to bring an honour lawsuit to the court and was accepted. Subsequently, Zhou Libo sued Tang Shuang for infringement. In December 2018, two cases were accepted by the Changning District People's Court of Shanghai.

Tang Shuang's attorney Shi Xiaojun said that the facts of Zhou Libo's drug use had been determined by the court, and Tang Shuang's opinion was required to appeal.
