Core Viewpoint - The company, Oriental Fashion Driving School Co., Ltd. (ST Dongshi), known as the "driving school leader," is facing potential delisting as it enters a pre-restructuring process initiated by the Beijing First Intermediate People's Court due to its inability to repay debts and lack of solvency [2][5].
