Preface
Do you still remember this photo, which went viral on the Internet back then, and netizens thought it was Jack Ma's illegitimate son at the time.
Even Ma Yun posted, it felt like he was looking in the mirror, and he thought that someone had picked up the photos when he was a child.
This "Jack Ma" also earned enough traffic because of this photo, and was also signed by the big boss, but after the limelight dissipated, he has been returned to his hometown for three years.
Recently, he appeared in the media again, but I didn't expect that he would become like this at the age of 16......
The comeback of "Jack Pony" was questioned
Recently, the cultural and tourism departments in various places have worked hard to fight their way out of publicity and promotion, especially after seeing Harbin Cultural Tourism become an instant hit.
All over the country, they are scrambling to launch a variety of brain-opening, creative promotional films, the frequency is so high that people are dazzled, and the variety is so dizzying that they are simply each family uses eighteen kinds of martial arts, each with its own wonderful.
Some places have invited red and purple stars to support them, some have followed the fashion trend and started rapping, and some places have actually played the "beautiful man trick" and sent beautiful men to pick up passengers at the station.
In addition, the director of the tourism bureau personally put on a battle and danced a funny "subject three" dance, which was simply full of flowers, and all kinds of gods and goddesses showed their magical powers, which was very lively.
However, in this vigorous cultural tourism marketing war, Jiangxi Cultural Tourism took a different step and chose a different move - they even found Fan Xiaoqin, who was a smash hit on the Internet that year, as their propaganda messenger.
When the name Fan Xiaoqin is mentioned, it is estimated that many people will be shocked, this young man became popular on the Internet overnight because he looked like Uncle Ma Yun's thief.
It's just that behind his popularity, there is a shadow of controversy because of the problem of intellectual disability.
Because Fan Xiaoqin's family was particularly difficult, his father was unfortunately bitten by a snake in his early years, which caused him to lose a leg, limited mobility, and became a disabled person.
His mother, on the other hand, suffers from intellectual disability and is unable to take care of her family and children as much as a normal mother.
Fan Xiaoqin himself was not spared, inheriting his mother's condition and having certain mental disabilities.
At the beginning of the year, Jiangxi Cultural Tourism released a promotional video starring "Ma Yun" Fan Xiaoqin, intending to use his former fame to attract everyone's attention again.

The accompanying text of the video humorously said: "Who ordered Fan Xiaoqin? He's here!"
Although Fan Xiaoqin's facial features in the video still maintain similar characteristics to Ma Yun, and his immature face has an innocent expression, the picture of him holding roses and posing for invitation has caused an uproar on the Internet.
Netizens reacted strongly to this, and most netizens expressed strong dissatisfaction and surprise at this move of Jiangxi Cultural Tourism.
They believe that the use of people with intellectual disabilities for commercial speculation not only violates basic morality and ethics, but also seriously ignores the rights and interests of vulnerable groups.
Many people call for special individuals like Fan Xiaoqin to need the care and appropriate help of the society the most, rather than being pushed under the flash and turned into eye-catching promotional props for businesses.
Although Jiangxi Cultural Tourism quickly deleted the relevant promotional video afterwards and stated that it "humbly accepts criticism and has the courage to bear the consequences", this does not completely erase their original intention of trying to use the public's curiosity and onlooker mentality to increase their popularity.
became popular overnight but ruined him
"No matter who it is, as long as it is good for me, I will agree to whatever I want my son to do. ”
This sentence is Fan Xiaoqin's father's heartfelt expression full of helplessness and expectation eight years ago.
However, eight years later, the father's face was full of vicissitudes and tears were rippling, and he resolutely said: "I am a little harder, and I want to keep my son by my side." ”
What kind of twists and turns have been experienced in these long eight years to make such a subversive change in the father's mentality and choices?
That year, the name Fan Xiaoqin suddenly became popular all over the Internet, because of his face that resembled Jack Ma, the founder of Alibaba Group.
After Ma Yun himself saw Fan Xiaoqin's photo, he couldn't help but sigh: "This kid is so energetic, I feel like I'm looking in the mirror!"
As soon as these words came out, it was immediately like a hornet's nest, and people from all walks of life were moved when they heard the wind, thinking that they could get a handful of it from Jack Ma.
Among these people, some are thinking about letting Fan Xiaoqin endorse their own products, some even want to register trademarks with his avatar, and some of the bigwigs of the live broadcast platform are arrogant: "As long as you follow me, Ma Yun can earn tens of millions a year!"
Among the many people who threw olive branches, Fan Xiaoqin's father, Fan Jiafa, finally chose a big boss in Hebei who called himself "the world's first Chinese hypnosis master".
The reason why he chose this big guy is very simple and straightforward: the other party promised to pay 10,000 yuan to his family every year.
At the same time, he promised to take care of Fan Xiaoqin until he turned 18, and also gave a seemingly tempting condition - if Fan Xiaoqin failed to be admitted to university at the age of 18, he would be arranged with a job.
When Fan Jiafa heard such a promise, the stone in his heart fell to the ground, thinking that his son's future was finally guaranteed.
However, real life is often not as simple as verbal promises, and the truth is not as beautiful as this "master" said.
At the beginning, Ma Yun Fan Xiaoqin was a little Internet celebrity who was loved by everyone, and he was surrounded by the media and businesses every day, and the notice was softly received, as if his life was like a hanging.
However, with the retirement of Mr. Ma Yun, the traffic dividend on Fan Xiaoqin began to slowly evaporate.
Just three years ago, before his contract expired, he was hurriedly sent back to his hometown.
Fan Xiaoqin's father saw his returning son, his heart was sour, and he seemed to be no different from when he left, but there was a little more confusion and ignorance in his eyes.
And when we look at the live videos of other anchors, we will find that this child, who should be in the prime of his 14-year-old youth, can't even answer the most basic 2+2 arithmetic questions.
In front of the camera, he would reach out to the live broadcaster to ask for money, but he couldn't even recognize 100 yuan, guessing that it was 5 yuan for a while, and saying 6 yuan for a while, which made people feel quite distressed.
This kind of behavior makes people wonder what Fan Xiaoqin's company has taught him in the past five or six years.
Aside from greed and worldliness, he doesn't seem to be getting the education and growth he deserves.
Now Fan Xiaoqin's father is full of remorse, and he feels deep pain and self-reproach for his decision to entrust his children to those parasitic brokerage companies that only value short-term interests.
Fan Xiaoqin, who has lost his halo
In 2021, Fan Xiaoqin was diagnosed with intellectual disability level 2, and even though he is 16 years old, the stagnation of his height still keeps him at an immature 1.3 meters.
Fan Xiaoqin, who returned to his hometown, still maintained the signature self-introduction of "Jack Ma", and reached out to ask for money from time to time.
However, his basic arithmetic ability in the fourth grade was still within ten, adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing.
Fan Jiafa admitted that after several years of running around, his son has not made substantial progress except for learning Mandarin, and he feels deeply guilty but helpless.
At first, Fan Xiaoqin's life in his hometown seemed out of place, and some of the villagers even urged him to do some dangerous things, and some even instigated him to stop cars on the street and beg.
Due to his intellectual disability, he was often unable to distinguish between right and wrong, so he had to do so.
The appearance of his hometown is no longer what it used to be, relying on Fan Xiaoqin's income as an Internet celebrity and government subsidies, the family has built a brand-new two-story building.
Despite this, the family still decided to follow their cousin into the city, even in the county there are still a few people who joke about Fan Xiaoqin, Fan Jiafa always stands up to protect him at the first time.
In 2023, Fan Xiaoqin's cousin Huang Xinlong opened a restaurant in the county seat, and in order to solicit business, he remembered Fan Xiaoqin, a figure with his own traffic.
The cousin took Xiaoqin's family to the county seat, provided them with a place to live, and paid their salaries, making Fan Xiaoqin a highlight of the store to attract customers.
As for today's life, Fan Xiaoqin's father Fan Jiafa said that at least he has a better life than when he was in his hometown.
He registered a social platform account and began to record Fan Xiaoqin's daily life.
Fan Xiaoqin in the video took off his star halo and returned to the image of an ordinary child, both the moment of being trained for trivial things, and the moment of receiving praise for doing housework.
Some people have questioned whether Fan's move is still consuming Fan's popularity, but in fact, he not only took care of his son, but also taught himself carpentry skills and weaved bamboo baskets to make a living.
Fan Xiaoqin and his brother Fan Xiaoyong will accompany their father to the river to fish in their spare time and enjoy the idyllic childhood fun.
These simple pictures touched the hearts of many netizens, making everyone understand that even if Fan Xiaoqin was active in Vanity Fair, he was essentially a child in need of care.
epilogue
Faced with the feeling of asking about today's life, Fan Jiafa smiled honestly and said, "I can earn 5,000 yuan a month now!"
After all the vicissitudes of life, Fan Jiafa promised to always be by his son's side, and Fan Xiaoqin also showed that he preferred to stay with his family.
Despite the difficulties in life, they do not back down, and have faith and hope for the future, believing that life will get better and better.
