On the evening of July 7, some netizens posted a video saying that there was a Malatang in Linyi City, Shandong Province. The video publisher said that this spicy hot shop called Xiao Ning's house, the store clearly marked that the seasoning was self-service, but he put two spoonfuls of sesame sauce in a large bowl and a small bowl respectively, and the store thought that he had put too much seasoning, and threatened not to let him go if he couldn't finish eating.

The video shows two women arguing, with a woman in an apron stepping forward and continuing to argue with the other, with one person outside the screen pushing a woman in an apron.
Many netizens felt that the boss was "not small", saying that "polite language, saying something", "being kind and making money". At the request of netizens, the video publisher also provided photos taken after adding ingredients to this Malatang restaurant in the comment area. After seeing the picture, some netizens said, "It looks like a normal amount." But some netizens said, "10 yuan is spicy and a few spoonfuls of ingredients are not profitable."
On the morning of July 8, the reporter of Jingshi Live broadcast repeatedly contacted the publisher of the video to no avail, and then the reporter contacted the woman wearing an apron in the video, who was Ms. Zhang, the owner of the Malatang restaurant.
Ms. Zhang told the Jingshi live broadcast reporter that the customer who posted the video came to her store and ordered 10.5 yuan of Malatang, and the small ingredients were self-service, but the store also emphasized that you can "take less frequently". "She added a lot of sesame sauce to the bowl, and then she went to the sterilizer and took a small bowl, and added half a bowl, adding a dozen spoonfuls." Ms. Zhang said that when she saw it, she said to the customer: "Didn't you add it?" As a result, the customer replied, "Can't you eat it?" Ms. Zhang said that she just didn't want to waste it, but the customer said, "It's like this when I go to a hot pot restaurant." Ms. Zhang said that there is a charge for the seasoning in the hot pot restaurant, so she said, "You can eat as much as you can, and don't leave if you can't finish eating." "That's why the two got into an argument in the video." I just told her not to waste it, didn't hit her, didn't scold her, is she okay? ”
At the same time, Ms. Zhang also told the reporter that because the customer posted the video and the information of their store on the Internet, it had a great impact on the business of her store, so that they could no longer operate normally. "This morning it was full of harassing phone calls, calling me and asking, 'You won't be scolded if you come to eat sesame sauce?' Ms. Zhang also said that she had recorded all the harassing phone calls, and the store also had surveillance on the day of the incident, and she had called the police to deal with the matter. Now it has caused cyberviolence, and the police will be dispatched in half an hour. ”
Subsequently, the Jingshi live broadcast reporter contacted the Luozhuang Police Station in Luozhuang District, Linyi City, Shandong Province, and a staff member told the reporter that on the morning of July 8, they did receive a police report from Ms. Zhang, the owner of Xiaoning's Malatang, about "cyber violence". They are investigating the matter and are also contacting the customer who posted the video. At the same time, the staff member said that they would further investigate Ms. Zhang's frequent phone harassment and possible "cyber violence". "We will investigate this matter further".
