Recently, a college entrance examination student was admitted after being withdrawn from Peking University three times in Henan, which caused widespread discussion in the society. On August 13, when a reporter visited the village where the student lived, a villager revealed that the local farmers' annual agricultural income is about 10,000 yuan, most of the young people go out to work, the elderly and their children stay behind, and the village has not been lifted out of poverty until recently. The experience of this candidate Cheng Qinlin (pseudonym) three times to withdraw and re-record has become a hot topic in the local area. Elderly residents of the town talked about him as they chatted under the trees, and neighbors encouraged his children to learn from Cheng Qinlin, hoping that they would be admitted to Peking University in the future.
A neighbor of Mr. Cheng told reporters that Mr. Cheng's parents were engaged in waste recycling in Guangzhou, and he lived with his grandfather and sister, and usually rarely showed up in the village. He studied hard, but his relatives and neighbors in the village rarely saw him.
The West Campus of Xincai County No. 1 Senior High School, where Cheng Qinlin studied, is known for its strict management and high enrollment rate. Local high school students told reporters that Cheng Qinlin's class 6 belongs to the school's top class, has excellent teachers, and attracts many students from poor families. Cheng Qinlin's homeroom teacher, Yuan Shuhua, also serves as the school's vice principal. Although Cheng Qinlin was once withdrawn from Peking University, he decided to repeat his senior year and then entered the third (2) class of high school. However, after he was re-enrolled by Peking University, the school's summer school program was abruptly suspended.
Cheng Qinlin's classmates knew little about him, because after the summer school started, Cheng Qinlin was suddenly admitted to Peking University. Some high school seniors who rent near the school said they felt abruptly suspended but continued to review at their rented premises without notifying them of the start of the new semester.
Cheng Qinlin's classmates said that because they could hardly use mobile phones at school, they did not know Cheng Qinlin's situation. Although they heard the teacher mention the situation of Qin Lin before the summer vacation, the teacher also stressed not to spread the matter to outsiders.
The village where Cheng Qinlin lives is located in Xincai County, 20 kilometers from the county seat, and the village has a bus to the county seat, which takes about 40 minutes by car. Cheng Qinlin lives on the south side of the road, and his residence is a small three-story building. When the reporter arrived, the door of his house was closed and the curtains were tightly drawn. It is understood that Cheng Qinlin's parents are engaged in waste recycling in Guangzhou, and the family's annual income is limited, but it is enough to maintain food and clothing. Cheng Qinlin's grandfather went out early that morning.
Cheng Qinlin has two relatives whose families are also in Xincai County, and their relatives live in the county seat. In a town not far from his home, some elderly people talked about Cheng Qinlin's story while cooling under a tree, saying that his excellent grades led him to be admitted to Peking University. However, neighbors close to Cheng Qinlin's family remained silent, unwilling to mention his experience of being decommissioned and re-recorded by Peking University three times.
A villager revealed that the village mainly grows corn, wheat and sesame, and earns about 4,000 to 5,000 yuan per quarter, and about 10,000 yuan per household every year. Since there is no pillar industry in the village, most of the young people choose to go out to work. There are solar panels in nearby farmland, which belongs to the photovoltaic poverty alleviation project in Xincai County. Despite its proximity to the county seat, the village has not been fully developed. There are almost no young people in the village, most of them go out to work, only the elderly and their children are left behind, especially during the summer vacation, the village is willing to send them to boarding schools in the county or town, fearing that their children will have accidents. Cheng Qinlin's neighbors also stressed the need to study hard and strive for excellent results, just like Cheng Qinlin, he was admitted to Peking University.
Regarding the village's recent liftout of poverty, one villager said that policy support will continue, and policies to support rural areas will not stop. Although the village has been lifted out of poverty in recent years, support policies will continue to boost local economic development. However, the reporter tried several times to call the village branch secretary's number, but could not get through.
