The editorial was titled "Son of the rich, do not treat vulgarity as a personality", and said that Sicung had "stained the purity of the Chinese" and that he had "the arrogance of Silvio Berlusconi”. The South China Morning Post dubbed the incident "buxomgate".
In 2016, Sicong's spending habits and lifestyle were publicly criticized in an additional editorial in the state-run China Daily newspaper.
