On October 23, in Zhengzhou, Henan, a female livestream host showcased what appeared to be factory production equipment in her livestream.

Rice noodles were seen continuously circulating on the device, creating the illusion that they were being produced or processed.
However, upon closer inspection, it became clear that this was actually a carefully constructed setup, with pre-packaged rice noodles stuck to a specially made conveyor belt.

The rotation of the equipment gave the impression of a large-scale factory production line during the livestream. The purpose of this staged scene was to attract customers by promoting the products as if they were being sold directly from the factory at ultra-low prices.

While this livestream approach seemed novel and engaging, it posed several issues. First, it could easily mislead consumers, making them think the noodles were being freshly produced, leading to misconceptions about their quality and safety.

Additionally, this kind of livestream also falls into the category of false advertising, potentially violating relevant laws and regulations.
