On July 7, a poster in memory of the "Seven Seven Luligou Bridge Incident" was spread online, but it added the name, address, website address and telephone number of a decoration company in Lanzhou, Gansu. Some netizens believe that the company has used the "July 7 Incident" to do marketing propaganda. In response, the company's relevant person in charge responded that their poster content was positive energy and had no other intentions. Lawyers said the company was suspected of violating the "Advertising Law".

On July 7, some netizens reposted a poster that commemorate the "Seven Seven Luligou Bridge Incident", which actually has the names, addresses, websites and telephones of a decorative company in Lanzhou, Gansu. Some netizens said that it is right to remind everyone that "don't forget the national shame, cherish peace", but you should not add the company's relevant information to the poster, and there are detailed addresses, URLs, and telephones. Suspected.

Jimu Journalists contacted the company on this. The relevant person in charge said that the posters made by the company will call, address and other information. This poster does not promote any activities of the company, no spoof, and the theme is very positive. They asked the staff to forward the poster inside, but I hope everyone should not forget the national shame.

Lawyer Ge Shuchun, a member of the Chinese Law Society, said that the poster of the decoration company has both contact information and address, and should be advertising. my country's advertising law clearly stipulates that advertising must not harm the dignity or interests of the country, hinders the public order of society or violates the goodness of the society. Although the poster of the decoration company has no irritating language on the surface, it produces posters on the grounds of the Lugou Bridge Incident and promotes themselves on the poster. It is not only suspected of blogging, but also makes many people unacceptable. If the company has indeed published the poster, its behavior is suspected of violating the advertising law.

Jimu Journalists also learned that relevant local departments have been involved in the investigation to deal with the matter.
