Fu Chengjun, from central China’s Anhui Province, was one of Hao’s avid followers and they got to know each other through a live streaming platform in February 2017, according to China Daily.
After following him online for some time, I found him to be a strong and optimistic person. We gradually fell in love with him,” the woman said.

Local custom states that before marriage, the groom must give betrothal gifts to the bride’s family. However, the couple carried on with the wedding without asking for anything and eloped in Hao’s hometown in Hebei on Jan. 9.

In May 2014, Hao was injured in an accident at a well-digging construction site, resulting in him being paralyzed from the waist down. In September 2014, his ex-girlfriend abandoned him and he hasn’t heard from her since.
He reportedly suffered muscular atrophy in his legs, and his weight dropped from 65 kilograms (143.3 pounds) to 50 kilograms (110.2 pounds).
The accident left Hao lying in bed for a long time, which limited his options as far as work. Fortunately, he unexpectedly found a new source of income in live streaming.
Equipped with his cellphone and a stand, Hao streams most of his activities online, including doing his rehabilitation exercise.
