Broadcast Insolvency Ledger / 播出破产账本

The Broadcast Insolvency Ledger is a stateful card for unpaid broadcast obligations. It appears when prior crisis management saved a show, person, proof object, correction slot, handler, or route asset by pushing cost into later production reality.

This card is not a money meter. It records who is owed, what can be seized, what can be cancelled, and which public version becomes real if the debt is ignored.

Entry state

Create or update this card from state, not from a fixed turn count, when at least two payable obligations compete for the same remaining capacity.

Valid source pressure includes:

• unpaid crisis tickets from 制作分诊台;
• displaced correction rows from 更正档期竞拍线;
• resolved-but-unpaid debt from 和解反震账本;
• exhausted or scarred handler rows from 处理人负荷账本;
• cutroom, edit, or checksum debt from 剪辑室优先队列线;
• fan/public instability from 观众稳定性下限;
• schedule obligations from Broadcast Schedule;
• route asset exposure from Route Assets and Custody.

Required fields

Each ledger row must name:

insolvency_row_id: <stable id>
source_surface: production_triage | correction_slot | settlement_aftershock | handler_burden | cutroom_priority | audience_stability | broadcast_schedule | route_asset | equivalent
creditor: artist | editor | sponsor | inspector | fan_public | archive | handler | witness | pirate | route_claimant | facility | blackout_system | split
owed_object: cash | oxygen_refund | edit_lane | legal_cover | public_apology | handler_recovery | proof_license | schedule_slot | route_asset_access | facility_access | safehouse | broadcast_warrant | equivalent
collateral_at_risk: route_asset | master_tape | edit_checksum | fan_oxygen_queue | public_receipt | artist_trust | sponsor_contract | legal_seal | facility_room | handler_availability | schedule_slot | explicit_absence
payable_capacity_before: solvent | strained | insolvent | disputed | captured | explicit_absence
payable_capacity_after: solvent | strained | insolvent | defaulted | converted | pawned | cancelled | blacked_out | recovery_only
preferred_default_narrator: sponsor | inspector | fan_public | archive | editor | pirate | blackout_system | route_claimant | public_audience
harmed_claimant_if_paid: <claimant>
harmed_claimant_if_defaulted: <claimant>
future_route_effect: protected | costlier | blocked | captured | hostile | public_only | lawful_only | recovery_only | blackout_pressure_up | contradiction_pending

The card fails its purpose if it only stores budget, cash, debt, money, or insolvent: true without creditor, collateral, harmed claimant, default narrator, and future route effect.

Row states

Use explicit row states so later rites and events can inherit them:

• payable_open
• payable_contested
• payable_prioritized
• payable_split
• payable_pawned
• payable_converted_to_public_debt
• payable_cancelled
• payable_defaulted
• payable_broadcast_on_credit
• payable_blackout_fold
• payable_recovery_only

Observable use

A playable implementation should expose at least two rows at once. The player must see which creditor is being protected, which claimant is harmed by payment, which collateral is being risked, and what default narrator takes the public version if the row is ignored.

Non-goals

• Not a generic shop, salary table, or balance screen.
• Not an abstract production budget.
• Not satisfied by a single unpaid bill.
• Not a turn-count escalation.
• Not a cleanup layer that erases the earlier relief created by triage, correction, settlement, handler, or cutroom choices.
