Honestly, I think you're wasting your time. Everybody from the doormen to the owner know what's going on. You can tell them it's not right, but they're making money because of what's going on. Why would they listen to you?

If it was an international chain, at least you could write to the corporate HQ; but unless Beijing decides to crack down on prostitution in the whole country, nothing's going to happen.
