From the current point of view, the matter between Zhang Ting and Lin Ruiyang has just begun, and TST is really unable to escape the law this time.
About how to characterize their company? The final penalty result has not yet been announced, and the Hebei Municipal Supervision Bureau is currently in the process of verification and investigation.
But from the current point of view, The company of Zhang Ting and Lin Ruiyang seems to have sat down on the two words of "pyramid scheme".
On January 5, the latest development of the whole thing came from the media, the Zhang Ting incident escalated, Tao Hong and Ming Dao are afraid that they will also be implicated, and they will also face certain penalties.
According to the media, Zhang Ting's company was investigated for suspected pyramid schemes, after star artists such as Tao Hong and Ming Dao publicly stood or promoted their company.
According to the lawyer's interpretation, according to the provisions of the Advertising Law, celebrity endorsements need to personally use these goods, and if they know or should know that the MLM still endorses them, they will be punished, and the endorsement fees previously charged should be confiscated, and they may also be fined 1-2 times.
In other words, once Zhang Ting and Lin Ruiyang's company has confirmed the bad situation such as pyramid schemes, the star artists who used to endorse together will also overturn. The lawyers clearly pointed out that once they know that it is a pyramid scheme and endorsement, then the endorsement fee will be cancelled and they will be fined by the market.
And the star artists who work with Zhang Ting can be said to be some old acquaintances in the entertainment industry. Judging from the territory of Zhang Ting's career, in just 4 years, starting from 2016, the star artists led by Tao Hong have promoted a certain brand of Zhang Ting a lot.
Some of these star artists include Tao Hong and Ming Dao, and there are as many as 40 people. From the current situation, the star artists who are in the cooperation period can be sure that Lin Chiling is there. At present, in the headquarters of the TST building, Lin Chiling is the main publicity spokesperson, and her endorsement poster is also posted in the building.
Luo Zhixiang is also one of them, in short, under the "greeting" of Zhang Ting and his wife, many star artists have been implicated, and they will also be warned and punished by the market.
The lawyer's interpretation is very clear, that is, the fine will definitely be implemented, and the amount of the penalty will be more than 2 times that of the endorsement.
Of course, so many star artists are involved, and the star artists who have cooperated and are cooperating are still being verified. The market will give a corresponding statement, Tao Hong and Mingdao have cooperated with Zhang Ting, and as early as 2021, they also filmed short videos for each other.
Even the so-called eldest brother Lin Ruiyang also gave Mingdao a super beautiful office in Shanghai, and Mingdao and Tao Hong were also present at that time.
Lin Ruiyang and Zhang Ting spent 1.7 billion yuan to build a building for the company's publicity activities, and Ming Dao and Tao Hong were both partners.
Now Zhang Ting and Lin Ruiyang are facing being tracked down by the Supervision Bureau, and the celebrity artists who used to endorse them have also begun to get nervous.
The matter is not over, it is being implemented step by step, if there is no accident, Zhang Ting and Lin Ruiyang are facing the possibility of being summoned next.
