I literally thought, oh, wow, that's new. That's going to play weird. And it said, Anderle and three key executives. And I was like, hmm. which ones? And then open the story. It's like, oh, literally found out from a Bloomberg story. Pretty wild. Darling, we're not going to Beijing this summer. Exactly. And the sanctions notice, it was kind of a hilarious thing.

The sanctions notice said, we're seizing your assets in China and preventing any entry into mainland China, Macau or Hong Kong, to which the obvious question is like, What assets?
