Hu Hongmei was a former vice principal and admired by thousands of people, and her teachers, classmates and parents liked her very much. Every time she goes to class, she always likes to wear a beautiful cheongsam. Her gentle and intellectual temperament is always admired. She also earned her the title "Cheongsam Goddess".
In addition, she was nominated for the 4th "Whole Person Education Award" and won several honors. Some media outlets have also reported on her deeds. It's just that this beautiful vice principal who loves to wear cheongsam went from being adored by thousands of people to hell, just because she plagiarized too badly.
1. The family is poor
She was born in a small mountain village in Hengyang, Hunan Province, and is a proper post-80s generation. However, even if she is in the mountains, she still yearns for the civilization of the outside world. She had an early plan for her future in this small mountain village, and she was determined to go out of the mountains and develop in the big cities of the first line. To that end, she began to study hard.
She has been doing well academically from an early age. In elementary school, I was always number one in the village. When I went to school in town, I was also the No. 1 in town. Later, I went to high school and was still at the top. The hard work paid off, and eventually, she was admitted to Shenzhen Normal University. My parents were very happy, and they saved money and finally made it possible for them to finish college.
After arriving at university, she was also shocked by the bustle of the big city, and she began to fall in love with this place. In college, she still didn't forget to study. While other classmates were busy falling in love, she was only obsessed with the school library, and spent a lot of time in the library every day, where she constantly enriched her knowledge.
In addition, she has participated in some skills competitions in the school. She put a lot of effort into winning the speech competition. She goes to school every morning to practice, and in the evening, she quietly writes in the toilet. Even though she could only sleep three or four hours a day, she never felt tired.
After graduating, she decided to stay in the local area and found a job in a customs unit. Her parents were overjoyed to learn the news, and the villagers of the nearby village began to talk about her story, which made her a celebrity there. Only later her enthusiasm for the job became less and less, and she spent her free time reading books.
2. Become an acting teacher and become a regular teacher in advance
One day, while reading a book, she suddenly had an idea: Wouldn't it be better if I could turn my hobby of reading into a job? This way not only makes you happy, but also gets a good reward. With this idea, she made up her mind to become a language teacher. So she began her daily routine of working and studying.
Whenever someone wondered why she made such a decision, she always laughed and said that it was her dream to be a teacher, and she loved the three-foot podium. When she said these words, her eyes were full of pride and yearning.
In the end, she successfully passed the exam and became a substitute Chinese teacher at Ruyi Primary School. In school, she will carefully refer to the teaching methods of others, and then learn from each other's strengths to form her own teaching style. In the school atmosphere, she feels very comfortable and happy because she can get along with students and sow seeds of knowledge for them.
When she showed herself on stage, the whole person enjoyed it very much. Only later she found that the students did not like extracurricular reading, but instead spent their spare time playing games. This made her think: How can I cultivate the habit of learning in students? As a result, when she lectures to her classmates, she begins to intersperse some interesting trivia, which makes the boring textbook content start to become rich and interesting. Even students who didn't like to study began to fall in love with his Chinese classes.
After students fell in love with learning, their grades also improved. Parents also recognize this beautiful teacher, and some parents even want to change their children to the class she teaches. At that time, she had only been teaching for more than a year, and it was already rare to be able to achieve such an achievement. School leaders also hired her as a formal teacher in advance. In 2003, she represented the school in the Young Teachers Competition, where she also won the first place in the primary school category.
3. Serve as the vice principal and get the title of "Qipao Goddess"
She began to do "School Reading Mode" activities in her class during the year, which was used to encourage students to read more extracurricular books, and also involved parents in the classroom, so that students, teachers, and parents interacted. The students' grades also began to improve significantly. Some of the creative teaching methods she had in mind began to be implemented in schools, and even some surrounding schools began to learn from her.
In order to mobilize children's enthusiasm for reading, she even opened Sina Weibo to promote children's reading, hoping to help more children. In 2012, she led more than 20 teachers in the school to set up the "Hu Hongmei Children's Reading Studio", every week she will record lessons and upload them online, and also hold some reading clubs, so that students in remote areas can also enjoy the knowledge to bring them happiness. In 2014, she became the deputy principal of the elementary school.
Her online class has a high audience, her voice is always gentle when lecturing, so that students feel very cordial and comfortable, every time she records a class, she will always wear a beautiful cheongsam, gently pull up her long hair, and match her own kind and warm smile, she has a very strong smell of books. Parents and students in many other places began to know about this beautiful vice principal, and people also called her the "cheongsam goddess".
4. Start doing public welfare after becoming famous
When she saw on the Internet that children in poor mountainous areas could not afford to read, she began to discuss with the team how to solve this problem. Later, she gave offline publicity education public welfare lectures to let more people know about this situation. She collected more than 30,000 books for her children. The books were sent to children in the mountainous areas of Guizhou and Yunnan.
This means a lot to the children because it is their food for the mind. And Hu Hongmei has also won many honors for her efforts. In her spare time, she also finds time to write articles that have been published in some well-known educational journals. Many people gave her a very high evaluation after reading these articles, thinking that she was an all-round beautiful headmistress with talent, beauty and love, which made her famous.
In 2016. She was awarded the title of "Lamplighter of the Year" by the state, and in 2017, she was awarded the title of "One of the Top Ten People of the Year to Promote Reading".
5. Plagiarism incident was discovered
In February 2020, the thing that made her go from defeat to hell happened. Some people on the Internet said that her published papers and books involved serious plagiarism problems, and also listed relevant evidence. Some people think that this whistleblower is talking nonsense, but is this really the case?
It is reported that the real name of the whistleblower is Chen Xunzhe and is a writer. The evidence he listed is very clear, and comparing the two works together shows that the similarity is quite high. He called it ironic that Hu Hongmei won the title of "Shenzhen Learning Star" in 2017.
Another public figure, Wang Lin, also expressed his views online, saying that the works he had translated with foreign experts for many years were also directly carried by her as the author and compiled into the teaching materials. When he found out, he contacted her and received an apology. Wang Lin originally thought about it, but he never thought that this beautiful principal was a habitual plagiarist.
Wang Ailing, a Chinese teacher in Shandong, said online that most of Hu Hongmei's reading list was her own work, and Hu Hongmei had not changed a word. It is really unacceptable that the work written by oneself should be regarded as your own work by others, and it is really unacceptable that it is honored for it.
6. "Fall into hell"
In the face of many crusades on the Internet, she chose not to speak again. Netizens began to accuse her of not even having integrity as a teacher. The parents who once praised her also began to complain and accuse her: Can a person who lies and become a sex still expect her to teach her children well? As things went on, some parents began to flock to the school to find the principal, wanting to ask for an explanation. They said that if the principal did not resign Hu Hongmei, the students would withdraw en masse.
At this time, she could no longer bear it and posted an apology statement online. It's just that in this statement, he didn't mention the word "plagiarism" at all, as if he hadn't done such a thing. After netizens saw such a statement, their resistance to her was even higher. After she saw that the statement was useless, she posted in the circle of friends saying that if netizens still did not understand her, she would send a suicide note.
Later, the local education bureau and Ruyi Primary School took relevant sanctions against her, revoked her position as vice principal, and transferred her from the front-line teaching position, canceling all the honors she had received.
At this point, Hu Hongmei's plagiarism incident ended here. In fact, her original intention was good. Whether it is teaching and educating people at the beginning, or later promoting children's reading, it is to help children learn. I believe that at that time his heart was very pure, just for the sake of the child. But as her fame soared, she saw more temptations and began to fall, so she would "fall into hell."
People are greedy animals, but they must withstand temptation. She just didn't experience temptation to embark on this "road of plagiarism", which is destined to not last long. If she had been able to stick to her heart, she would have gone high and far, but he didn't. Therefore, she will change from the "cheongsam goddess" revered by thousands of people to a word thief who has fallen into hell. She has now fallen to this fate, which is inevitably embarrassing. I wonder how you feel after seeing her end?
