Two teenagers who peed into a pot of broth at a hotpot restaurant have been ordered to pay 2.2m yuan ($309,000; £227,000) to two catering companies in China.

The incident, which happened in February at a Shanghai branch of China's biggest hotpot chain Haidilao, sparked widespread criticism after the 17-year-olds posted a video of their drunken act online.

There is no suggestion that anyone consumed the contaminated broth but Haidilao had offered to pay thousands of diners who dined at the restaurant in the days following the incident.

In March, Haidilao sought more than 23m yuan in losses, saying this took into account the amount it compensated customers over the incident.

Last Friday, a Shanghai court found that the teenagers had infringed upon the companies' property rights as well as reputation through "acts of insult", noting that their actions contaminated tableware and "caused strong discomfort among the public".

It also found that the teens' parents had "failed to fulfil their duty of guardianship" and ordered that they bear the compensation, state media reported.

This includes 2m yuan for operational and reputational damage, 130,000 yuan to one of the caterers for tableware losses and cleaning expenses, and 70,000 yuan in legal costs.
 
Need to sell backside 3000x to pay the fine??
 
even if they work for hdl at $1 or cny6.9 an hour for 10 hrs per day for 360 days per year for 50 years, they won’t make enough to cover $300k. it will only be $180k. they need to suck customers’ cocks and pussies to pay the difference.

Soi 47 closes all outlets, jailed ex-owner accused of owing debts​

Popular Thai restaurant chain Soi 47 has abruptly shut all six of its outlets across Singapore, ending nearly a decade of offering authentic and affordable Thai cuisine. A search on Google shows that branches once located in Orchard, Clarke Quay, Clementi, Toa Payoh and other areas are now listed as either "temporarily closed" or "permanently closed", with no official statementissued by the company. Even the flagship outlet in Toa Payoh, which was still marked as open online, was found shuttered when reporters visited.

Customer reviews suggest that most outlets were still operating as recently as the previous week, making the closure appear especially sudden. The shutdown coincides with controversy surrounding Soi 47’s former owner, who is currently serving a jail term for offences unrelated to the restaurant. A food supplier has also accused the company of defaulting on over $160,000 in unpaid bills in the months leading up to the closure.

According to Shin Min Daily News, the supplier, He Zhenzhu of Haisheng Food Company, said his firm had provided frozen seafood and meat to Soi 47 since 2019. While payments were regular for several years, delays began in late 2024. The restaurant’s then-manager, Mr Ang Wee Ling, told Mr He that Soi 47 was facing cash-flow problems and promised to settle the debts through monthly instalments.

By August 2025, however, all payments had stopped, and Mr He said he was unable to reach Ang or anyone from the company. It was later revealed that Ang had been sentenced in June 2025 to 14 months’ jail for offences related to illegal labour importation under his other businesses, Toast Inn and Tinn3 Pte Ltd, both of which had links to Soi 47’s operations.

The restaurant chain has since changed ownership, but the new management has denied responsibility for the previous debts. The company’s current director told Shin Min that he had only joined earlier in 2025 and was unaware of the restaurant’s financial difficulties until suppliers began reaching out after the closure.
