The woman employee, identified as Zhou (her surname), can be seen using a mop to beat her male boss, identified as Wang, for sending her unwanted and obscene messages. Further accusing him of sending such texts to multiple women in the office, she says she’s reported him to the police.

As he is being beaten up, Wang can be seen hiding his face behind and attempts to apologise saying that he had sent those messages as a joke. Meanwhile, another woman not seen in the video says, “How is it a joke? It shows that you have bad character … Have you thought about consequences for your office?”
