To combat online black public relations, Nio and Li Auto announced their latest progress on the same day

Li Auto's legal department stated that recently, the company discovered that some online black public relations and water army were maliciously defaming Li Auto's brand image and product quality through means such as malicious smear campaigns and fabricating false information, seriously disrupting market order and harming consumer rights and the healthy development of the industry.

On the same day, Nio's legal department announced recent progress in protecting rights: the holder of the online account "2018 Armor Dragon" has ignored national laws and has published thousands of statements attacking, defaming, and insulting Nio and Nio users on multiple platforms over the past year, severely damaging the legitimate rights and interests of Nio and its users as well as the clarity of the online environment. The court recently made a first-instance judgment, ordering the individual to immediately delete all infringing content, publicly apologize to Nio, and compensate for economic losses
