the staff also said: "it is bankruptcy protection. bankruptcy and bankruptcy protection are two completely different concepts in law. the main difference is whether they can continue to operate. all businesses of companies that declare bankruptcy must be completely stopped immediately and enter the bankruptcy liquidation procedure, while companies that apply for bankruptcy protection can continue to operate their own businesses in order to strive for restructuring or profitability to avoid bankruptcy. the reporter also asked the anchor of the live broadcast room who was broadcasting live, and the anchor also said that the business was not affected."
