    Roast! fined 900,000 yuan for illegal 999 Piyanping ad placement

    In 2019, a small theater segment at the end of the variety show Roast! embedded an ad for 999 Piyanping, with host Zhang Shaogang and others orally recommending it, without drug advertisement review and without marking contraindications, adverse reactions, or OTC prompts, violating the Advertising Law provision that drug advertisements may not use endorsers to recommend. The advertiser, Chongqing 盖勒普霍斯医药有限公司, was ordered to stop publishing and fined 900,000 yuan, and the ad producer was also fined 900,000 yuan. Regulators used this case to warn against 'fancy embedding' of drugs in variety shows.
