715 Parent's Prisoner's Dilemma(1/2)

"Actually, it can't be considered completely ruined. At most, it's half ruined. As long as we return from our lost ways and apply for our graduate studies at Huaqing University, we can still save it."

The meeting between the two ended with Principal Hu’s final and satisfying speech.

In fact, from Wang Yufei's perspective, he doesn't care too much about the feud between Huaqing and the opposite university. After all, he only studied in Huaqing for one year, and most of that time was spent on brain-computer experiments in Huaqing.

I spent my time in the dormitory, had little interaction with other classmates, and never experienced the feeling of being directly reported to the opposite school for doing bad things.

But Huaqing is his alma mater after all, and that is enough. In Wang Yufei's view, the grievances between the two families are probably accumulated over the years in the battle for students.

Therefore, top universities should not be too close to each other. As soon as you leave the school, you can see that it is easy for grievances to accumulate.

Probably because of Wang Yufei’s straightforward statement on Lao Hu’s last condition, Huaqing issued a statement directly through the Academic Affairs Office the next day, just as President Hu promised

The content is more radical.

Since the beginning of this academic year, the school has still organized and carried out English CET-4 and CET-6 exams normally, but whether or not to obtain CET-4 and CET-6 certificates is no longer linked to the graduation certificate and degree certificate, and graduate students will no longer be affected by their English scores. At the same time, college English will be removed from various categories.

Removed from compulsory courses and changed to elective courses.

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and as soon as the statement came out, it caught countless people by surprise.

CET-4 and CET-6 can still be taken, but they are no longer linked to certificates. What signal is this? This means that the status of English in education has been crazily weakened.

Graduation does not require CET-4 scores, and postgraduate entrance examinations do not require CET-6 scores. For many students, why should they still learn English?

From this point of view, Huaqing’s change of college English from compulsory to elective is definitely the most perfect comment on the previous statement.

It is conceivable how much reaction this news caused among the students when it was announced on the website of the Office of Academic Affairs. However, in fact, compared to the reaction from the outside world, the reaction from students on campus is completely negligible.

The first time netizens got the news was to log on to the official website of Huaqing University for verification. The surging enthusiasm directly paralyzed the official website of Huaqing University.

Yes, the website was paralyzed, and when netizens who got the news later wanted to find out what was going on, the website could no longer be opened.

But this is understandable, after all, we will live forever!

Various issues surrounding Huaqing’s decoupling of CET-4 and CET-6 from diplomas and diplomas have also sprung up.

Of course, this is something that policymakers expected.

In fact, when implementing this measure, policymakers were prepared for the public opinion wave caused by this statement to be far greater than the actual impact.

After all, there are only a few key universities. The quality of students recruited by key universities such as Huaqing University and Peking University is incomparable to the average 985/211 universities. Even if all 985/211 universities that can recruit more than 200,000 people are included,

It is incomparable to the tens of millions of college students in China.

For many ordinary college students, CET-4 and CET-6 are really like a nightmare. Especially for listening, is it like inviting a foreigner to chant sutras?

Those who are really interested in foreign languages ​​go to the English Corner every day. Those who are not interested come to the exam season and suddenly read books and memorize words.

Although the threshold for language talent is lower than that of mathematics, if you are not interested, you are not interested, and it is normal for you to be tired from learning.

Under such circumstances, it is natural for it to create huge popularity on the Internet. After all, this matter is related to the vital interests of the most active groups on the Internet, especially those college students who have not yet graduated.

The comment with the most likes is a joke: "The university in China that least needs to untie CET-4 and CET-6 has been untie. Those school leaders who need to untie it, open your eyes. The opportunity to surpass Beijing University is yours."

If you don't hurry up, it will be too late!"

Although it is a joke, it is also true. Most of the students in Huaqing are very proficient in English, but there are still some places where it is really difficult for children to pass CET-4 or CET-6. In many cases, you cannot even blame the children for not working hard, after all, the language

In addition to talent, teachers and environment are particularly important when learning something.

Especially in English, for many diligent children in mountainous areas, there are problems with pronunciation when learning phonetic symbols, and their hearing is naturally limited.

But in any case, Hua Qing’s sudden move has made the situation more popular.

In addition to ridicule and enthusiastic celebrations by some people, the loudest voices were probably doubts and abuses.

Yes, it’s just questioning and insulting, what? Are you Huaqing trying to be new and unconventional? Give up CET-4 and CET-6 and change English from compulsory to elective. This is asking God. The sky can’t tolerate Hua Qing, right?

Of course, this is actually understandable.

The most direct criticism probably comes from those students who have been reviewing English vocabulary day and night and have just passed the exam.

this……

What's going on?

I just finished the exam and you told me that this thing is useless. If you don't curse, you will be sorry for the English words in your mind that you haven't had time to forget.

But the ones who scolded him the most fiercely were probably related to interests.

After all, in China, English teaching and training have already formed a huge industrial chain, which of course includes CET-4 and CET-6 training.

Although the popularity of English in the past two years has been accompanied by the substantial transfer of the world's science and technology center and the rapid development of China, and its popularity in training institutions such as IELTS and TOEFL has dropped a lot, English is still a main course after all, and it is still a required test for the college entrance examination.

Content, as long as there is this guarantee, all kinds of English training businesses can be maintained.

Not to mention that China is so big, there are still many people who still hold the idea that the moon in developed countries must be rounder than China, and the life there must be better than life in China. Many people even still think that studying hard is the only way to go abroad in the future.

There are still many ideas for development. Of course, there are also people who are studying hard just to watch original movies without reading subtitles.

These demands combined are enough to support a huge market. Online, offline, those selling tutorials, those studying exam questions...

God knows how many people rely on this industry chain to survive. Before, Yuxin Technology suddenly put on a posture of starting a war with English, which has aroused the alarm of countless people, but the stakeholders really dare not provoke Yuxin Technology

What to say, let alone setting the pace online.

Yes, first of all I don't dare. After all, this company is not the kind of company that likes to be reasonable, especially its user blacklist system, which is really too powerful.

Being blacklisted by Yuxin Technology can be said to be just one step away from death. After all, leaving Yuxin Technology's products is basically equivalent to saying goodbye to the latest high-tech life.

If a company is directly blacklisted by Yuxin Technology, especially if it is an industry such as a training school that closely integrates offline and online, then it will really have no choice but to wait for it to go bankrupt.

Therefore, even after the official announcement of Yuxin Technology was released, although it became a hot search topic, no one commented much on the announcement of this private company, and no one would secretly hire trolls to attack Yuxin Technology.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that Yuxin Technology’s statement and the Nobel Prize fight have not had such a big impact on the entire English training industry chain.

After all, Yuxin Technology is still a private enterprise. The development of private enterprises is often closely related to the boss's decision-making. Because the boss's likes and dislikes can easily affect the development and decision-making of the enterprise.

So if Yuxin Technology refuses English, just refuse it. Most people will just regard this matter as a joke and won’t think too deeply about it, but Huaqing University is different.

As one of the two most well-known and powerful universities in China, Huaqing University’s influence in China is unquestionable.

Not to mention anything else, every year in major prestigious high schools, students admitted to Huaqing University and Peking University are listed separately for statistics, which is enough to explain everything.

Even other 985 universities with independent enrollment authority are at least inferior to Huaqing and Peking University in terms of reputation. This means that every move of Huaqing and Peking University has a strong demonstration significance.

Huaqing University cancels the linking of CET-4 and CET-6 with graduation and degree, and even changes the English course from the main course to the minor. In fact, it is not a big problem. After all, there are only tens of thousands of students in Huaqing, and most of them do not need training at all, so these students

The impact on the entire market can be said to be minimal.

Even just in terms of the number of students, plus Peking University, everyone can do it without batting an eye.

But the impact is too bad

It doesn't matter if it's Huaqing, but if all the major universities across the country follow the same example, how can anyone have fun?

If universities across the country cancel the linkage of CET-4 and CET-6 with certificates and change English from a main course to a minor course, it is foreseeable that the business in the Chinese English training market will shrink by at least 30%, but the problem is not simple.

If universities across the country list English as a minor subject, and there is no need to take English again for the postgraduate entrance examination, then does it still need to put English as a main subject in the college entrance examination?

If even English is canceled in the college entrance examination, then the entire Chinese English training market can still maintain its current 10%, thank God. Once the market shrinks to this extent, God knows how many related training companies will go bankrupt immediately.

What’s even more frightening is that Huaqing is located in Beijing and is one of the institutions of higher learning closest to the Ministry of Education.

The closest distance is not only about distance, but also about relationship.

Even the opinions put forward by universities like Huaqing can influence the decision-making of the education department.

So at this time Huaqing must be scolded. If it doesn’t get scolded, how can it make Huaqing realize that this statement is retrograde? If it doesn’t get scolded, how can it put pressure on the education decision-making department to let everyone know that this kind of policy that does not value English

This approach is extremely short-sighted and should never be advocated. Huaqing may even withdraw its order...

Of course, for these stakeholders, scolding also requires an art. They are not those who have memorized vocabulary for several months and finally passed CET 4 or 6, but were suddenly told that CET 4 and 6 are useless.

Students only need to vent their emotions with a few mindless curse words.

They have to analyze how short-sighted this behavior is from a theoretical perspective and make the vast majority of people realize that Huaqing’s approach is not feasible and that it is necessary for all people to learn English, so as to keep the English training market from shrinking.

At least others should feel the pressure. Hua Qing did this, but it is also good for others not to follow suit.

To achieve this effect, naturally it cannot be solved by mindless insults. After all, people who can make such decisions will most likely not browse Weibo, forums, and chase Internet hot spots every day. Everyone is very busy, even if you pay 10,000 yuan,

The army posted 100,000 posts and was a hot search topic the previous day. In addition to bringing popularity to Huaqing, it might not even be able to turn over a single one.

At this time, it is necessary for opinion leaders with enough weight and knowledge to come forward to provoke debate. Only people with enough weight to analyze various shortcomings and stir up the sensitive nerves of more people can trigger greater social repercussions and attract more people's attention.

Under such circumstances, one can imagine the pressure Huaqing was under at this time.

What education reform or sensationalism?

Why voluntarily give up internationalization and start a new round of isolation?

Etc., these are all speeches made online by very influential opinion leaders in the education field. Not only online, some print media also reprinted these articles.

Originally, the voices supporting and opposing Huaqing University's actions on the Internet were evenly matched. But as these big Vs spoke more and more to experts, the situation began to reverse.

But the biggest reversal came from an article published on a public account from the perspective of an ordinary parent. Not only did this article gain millions of views as soon as it went online, it was also reposted by major websites and countless experts began to

Quote from this article.

In fact, this article really doesn't make much sense, but the content of the article has touched the hearts of countless parents.

According to what is said in the article, since the school implemented burden reduction, as a parent, he feels more and more tired, and even more tired as the burden is reduced.
