So earlier chatter after the Yuan Bing Yan tax scandal in 2022 was that it was her company that she was a director in which was fined for tax evasion (around $150,000 USD) and not her personally, so she would likely be able to comeback. Then earlier in 2023 this year it was reported that her drama Love Never Fails with Liu Xue Yi would be airing later this year, leading credence that she was NOT cancelled. But after the Song Zu Er tax scandal two weeks ago which had amounts over $6 million USD, the tax authorities are reportedly undergoing another industry audit of celebs so this topic is front and center. China Central Television CCTV the official voice of the government had a news article on its website this week discussing the tax evasions and how it worked, calling out now cancelled stars Deng Lun and top web seller Viya by name for how they created fake companies and businesses and put their personal earnings through the entities to pay lower tazes. Both Deng Lun and Viya are mega cancelled. The article then named Yuan Bing Yan by name saying her tax scandal was having the company reimburse her personally for nonexistent expenses as a company employee and then the money was moved to her personal account. C-ent is now saying Yuan Bing Yan’s so-called hope for comeback has evaporated with this CCTV callout of her by name with more egregious tax cheats. She also has another drama The Emperor’s Love with Wallace Chung that will likely not air.

Lesson, just pay your taxes!
Sigh… What a waste of talent. She’s such a good actress.
And it’s a pity that the effort, time and money of everyone else involved in her unaired dramas will be wasted too.
Please pay your taxes, celebrities!
I feel bad for the associated crews and actors who pay the price for such scandals with no fault of their own.
Looks like she truly offended people she should not… No come back from her. I hope all artistes pay their tax…China Gov needs lots of money to build the economy now…
It probably was just a small error that’s only equivalent to 6k in USD lol she could just pay it off easily by selling one hand bag. In US a lot of stuff can get miscategorize and can always fix your taxes later and repay. China is so crazy with that. If they want more cash, they need to have these celebrities continue to work. CCTV needs to say what exact expense did her company used as deduction. So not tranparent but they are authoritarian so whatever. Funny how it’s called the People’s Republic. What a joke.
