Zhou Liqi (Chinese: 周立齐; born December 27, 1984[1]) is a Chinese slacker culture influencer.[2] He became famous in 2016 after a 2012 video went viral of him being questioned by local police in Guangxi after being arrested for stealing electric bicycles.[3][4][5] When he was released from prison in April 2020, he was offered up to CN¥3 million to sign with talent agents, but he declined the offers, instead opening a barbecue restaurant.[3] The Chinese government has criticized him as part of an effort to suppress slacker culture, censored fan videos praising him using the nickname Qie Guevara (Chinese: 窃·格瓦拉; lit. 'Steal Guevara'[6]), and threatened to blacklist talent agencies that work with him.[7][3]
