Core Viewpoint - The article reveals the fraudulent activities of Nuotai Bio, a company involved in the weight-loss drug sector, which led to its stock suspension and significant penalties from regulatory authorities [1][2].

Group 2: Regulatory Actions and Consequences - The China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) imposed a total fine of 76.2 million yuan on Nuotai Bio, including 4 million yuan for false annual report records and 43.4 million yuan for fraudulent issuance [1][2]. - The actual controller, Zhao Dezhong, was fined 18 million yuan, and several executives faced penalties exceeding 10 million yuan collectively [1].
