On February 29, Gao Junyu, the "reader girl", revealed that she had a rare brain tumor, which attracted public attention. Subsequently, Gao Junyu's social account updated a number of videos to record the treatment experience, but it was suspected that it was a stock video because the clothes of the characters in the video did not match the season.

After the fermentation of public opinion, the "Suddenly Enlightened MCN" certified in Gao Junyu's Douyin account has been canceled.
On March 11, Gao Junyu's mother claimed that the contracted company had serious problems in its operation and had negotiated with the company to stop publishing Junyu-related videos.
On March 12, Hangzhou Yuhang issued a notice saying: The relevant video was filmed in September 2023 and edited and produced in February 2024, and was posted to the Internet by the MCN agency with a text description of recent occurrences.
On March 12, Gao Junyu's MCN agency @Suddenly Enlightened mcn issued an apology statement, saying that there were serious flaws in the time statement in the copywriting when the video was distributed, and no profit-making operations such as donations and rewards had been carried out.
The Cyberspace Administration of China recently issued a notice to launch a two-month nationwide special action of "Clear and Clear, Rectify 'Self-Media' Without Bottom Line and Traffic", focusing on "self-media" to create hot spots without a bottom line, create "information traps" that mix false and real, and strictly rectify "self-media" that ignore public interests, violate public order and good customs, disrupt public order, and do whatever it takes for traffic and loses the bottom line.
In this incident, can Gao Junyu be exempted from responsibility?
According to the Xiaoxiang Morning News, lawyer Fu Jian, director of Henan Zejin Law Firm, and Liu Ming, executive director of Hunan Ruibang Law Firm, gave a legal interpretation of the details of the incident.
1. What legal penalties may MCN institutions face?
Fu Jian: The MCN operation and management agency publishes outdated news to gain traffic, mislead the public, spread rumors, and cause public disorder. Violations of the relevant content of the Public Security Administration Punishment Law may be subject to administrative penalties such as fines and even detention.
Spreading false information and fabricating lies, causing netizens to have misunderstandings, so that netizens dispose of finances and make donations based on misunderstandings, and the amount is relatively large. MCN management and operation agencies may also be subject to criminal penalties for fraud crimes.
2. What may be the most serious legal consequences of a video similar to a video of moving blocks out of context?
Liu Ming: The most serious consequence is that he will be guilty of picking quarrels and provoking trouble, which is punishable by up to 10 years in prison.
3. If an agreement is signed between the MCN institution and the account owner, and the institution operates the account on behalf of the account, the content published by the MCN needs to be agreed by the parties according to common sense, if these videos are agreed, do the parties need to be liable? If there is no consent of the parties, how to divide the legal responsibility?
Liu Ming: That is to say, if the published content has been approved by the parties, then the parties should jointly bear legal responsibility with the MCN institution, and combined with the circumstances of this case, it is more likely to be subject to administrative punishment. Correspondingly, if the party is not aware, the company is subject to administrative penalties, and the party is not liable, and the relevant responsibility should be borne by the video publisher.
Fu Jian: Gao Junyu's personal account is operated by the company, and for netizens, the video shot and released by the company is equivalent to Gao Junyu's release. If the company publishes a video without permission and causes adverse consequences, Gao Junyu and his family should publicly explain and delete the video to eliminate the impact as soon as they know about it, so that they do not have to bear the corresponding responsibility;
