Article 66 of the Law of the People's Republic of China on Administrative Penalties for Public Security stipulates that prostitution will be detained and fined. Although it is not clear whether "pimping" involves the circulation of money, as long as soliciting customers for whoring in public, they will be detained or fined according to law. Even if there is no economic exchange, this act may still be illegal, and the perpetrator may be detained for criminal responsibility.

In China, according to Article 70 of the Law of the People's Republic of China on Administrative Penalties for Public Security, participation in profit-making gambling or activities involving large amounts of gambling may be subject to administrative penalties for public security, such as detention and fines. However, not all gambling behaviors will lead to criminal punishment, unless serious criminal behaviors such as organizing gambling, opening casinos or gathering people to gamble are involved. Ordinary mahjong entertainment usually does not constitute a criminal offence unless it meets the specific conditions of the crime of gambling in the criminal law, such as organizing gambling games, involving huge gambling funds and causing serious impact on society. Therefore, whether or not to be punished depends on the nature, scale and social impact of gambling behavior.
