Do you still remember Li Xueyang, who won the championship in the 2013 National Children's Swimming Championships? At that time, she was in the limelight, and as a second-level athlete, she successfully won the championship of the fierce competition of Benxi Senior High School, and was personally awarded a certificate of honor by the Benxi Municipal Bureau of Culture and Tourism.
This time, he not only won the favor of Peking University, but also was admitted as a second-level athlete.
Not to mention that Peking University also lowered her score by 20 points when she was admitted, even if she didn't drop her score, her college entrance examination score was 17 points higher than the liberal arts admission line in Liaoning Province.
However, the good times did not last long, and in 2014, a report shook out the operation of Benxi Senior High School's sports bonus points, saying that there was a problem.
It immediately attracted the public's attention.
According to the report, in the college entrance examination that year, 87 sports students were given extra points, which is one of the best in the province.
As soon as this incident came out, parents and the public began to question the fairness of the extra points in the college entrance examination.
Although the controversy over the bonus points is in an uproar, Li Xueqin's alumni firmly believe that she entered Peking University with her strength.
The college entrance examination scored 633 points, plus the 20-point discount given by Peking University's independent admissions, with a total score of 653 points, which is a lot higher than the admission score line of that year.
But do you think that's the end of it? An even bigger controversy is yet to come.
From 2019 to 2024, this controversy has not stopped.
Li Xueqin herself mentioned that she met a little girl when she "swam out", and she also showed off her swimming skills.
But who would have thought that in an interview in 2024, she would actually say that she can't swim.
This made netizens explode and began to question her swimming ability and the authenticity of the second-level athlete certificate.
Although there are constant controversies, Benxi Senior High School, as a key middle school in Liaoning Province, has always given people a thumbs up for its education quality and college entrance examination results.
But as soon as this happened, the parents quit, and the Liaoning Provincial Department of Education also took quick action to review the qualifications of the 1,072 sports students in Benxi Senior High School.
Outcome? Only 802 people were eligible.
This matter was exposed by the Beijing Morning News, a subsidiary of CCTV, and tens of thousands of yuan of false certificate transactions were also exposed, especially in football and swimming.
Although Li Xueqin's name was not directly mentioned in this investigation, her school did not even have swimming facilities, and she herself said that she could not swim, which made the outside world even more suspicious of the authenticity of her second-level swimming athlete certificate.
A resident of Benxi City revealed that the school may issue second-level athlete certificates for students in order to promote higher education rates and make profits.
Having said that, although Li Xueqin held that swimming certificate, she didn't rely on this bonus point to enter Peking University.
Her college entrance examination results and the extra points in the independent admissions examination of Peking University have long been enough for her to enter Peking University steadily.
However, the controversy caused by this certificate has made people see the chaos of the college entrance examination bonus system, which is not only related to the fate of countless candidates, but also pokes at the sore spot of the college entrance examination and educational fairness.
Li Xueqin can become a public figure, not just by that certificate.
The cultural heritage of Peking University, her connections and real talent are the key to her popularity.
She has a hot fight with celebrities from all walks of life on social media, and this strategy and vision are not comparable to ordinary people.
So, although Li Xueqin is still surrounded by controversy over swimming ability and the authenticity of her certificate, her educational and professional achievements are not covered.
This also shows us how important it is to improve the system and transparency in the pursuit of educational equity, which is the key to ensuring the rights and equal opportunities of every student.
