Background / History

Xiao Zhan initially approaches Lin Jie under his hero alias, Zhan Chen, to recruit him after witnessing Lin Jie defeat the Black Hand Boss. He reveals his real name to Lin Wan and argues that his own intellect and equipment complement Lin Jie's raw strength. Lin Wan's pressure ultimately helps persuade Lin Jie to enter hero work with him 22.

He operates from Xiao's Building and runs Xiao Tech Company, developing equipment intended to support heroes and promote his brand. His earliest devices prioritize style as much as combat utility, including a hair-dryer pistol, hair-conditioner gun, recording camera, and internet-enabled sunglasses 23.

After joining Lin Jie, Yan Qing, and Thirteen in a team, Xiao Zhan becomes involved in the investigation of a biochemical organization. His inventions prove decisive against the sewage monster and later against the Golden Triangle and Ouyang Rui's forces 27 31 38.

Appearance

Following enhancement training, Xiao Zhan adopts an “end-of-century protagonist” appearance that Lin Jie finds nearly unrecognizable 47.

• More muscular than before training 47
• Seven scars across his chest 47
• Uses a combat outfit and weapons obscured by mosaic-like pixelation 37 47
• Carries a mosaic-covered rod known as the Big Dipper Mosaic Stick after training 47

Personality

Xiao Zhan is intensely concerned with image, popularity, and presentation. He considers appearance essential to modern superhero work and frequently designs equipment with promotional or cosmetic functions alongside its practical use 23. He originally films battles in hopes of recording his own “glorious achievements” 22.

Despite his vanity and eccentric inventions, he is disturbed by the Hero Association's falsification of credit for the Black Hand incident and takes evidence of Ouyang Rui's corruption seriously 23 29. He helps protect Lin Mumu from the Association and Evolution Company, prepares surveillance measures against threats, and participates in the operation against Ouyang Rui 30 32 38.

He is also resourceful under pressure. When Shadow holds him hostage, he negotiates rather than escalating the confrontation, offering her a new identity and protection in exchange for joining his team 42.
