Is it illegal to see Xiao Huangwen?

Legal analysis: the law only stipulates that it is not allowed to sell, spread or copy. And it depends. The public security organs only punish the organizers. Ordinary spectators will not be punished, but sometimes they will be given public security warnings or fines.

Legal basis: People's Republic of China (PRC) Criminal Law.
