In America this kind of extreme corruption favoring the stupid and lazy but wealthy and well-connected, over the smart and industrious but poor and non-connected goes on openly. Rich people openly lavish gifts upon universities to get their kids into the universities, at the expense of those not so well-off. It's easy to see, you can find their names all over the buildings.
@@eitkoml America doesn’t even need the corruption. Colleges are already extremely costly and scholarships and admission is based on many factors like sports, extracurricular activities like playing instruments, cultural activities, debating, clubs etc. Most of the time only rich parents can afford this for their children.
@@MashZ false....so many scholarships available that pay it all, not to mention that sometimes you can even strike off part of your college loan for certain things. Besides, smart people go to community colleges first for a two year degree, which is really cheap, and then finish off at a regular college/uni at essentially half or 2/3 the cost. Just because you're stupid and paid the full amount doesn't mean all do

People in my country just pay for others to take the test for them. You realise just how many idiots there are when you meet them in college and they can't do basic crap. The crappy part is they can even end up being your boss one day, doing the same crap at their job, taking credit for your work and when they do mess up (and they always do) have no fear they'll get fired because of those connections. Avoid workplaces with suspiciously high turnover rates, one of them could be in charge there.
That's how you get idiots managing the country. And those idiots don't even understand how many structures failed because of idiocy, how much unnecessary money is used to maintain failed projects. So much waste of tax-payers money, so many deaths of innocent people because idiots just want a job but don't know how to get the job done.
When reading the video title I expected "stolen life" to be figuratively, for some missing opportunity, not actual identity theft that leads to a stolen life in such literal meaning
Is the same in all countries around the world. Just in different ways. We are all under some suppressing government. We could be living at our full potential, but we are stock here with the governments of the world
Some background knowledge: The major way for a Chinese to move from lower class to upper class is the gaokao test, namely national college entrance exam. Educational and social resources are very limited for lower-class students. If failed in the gaokao test, they have to work in one of the factories in the world factory country for their rest of life.
bro fuck off 😂 it said even in the video that for the first woman that didn't go to university she became a teacher, not a factory worker. some many drones giving you the updoot clearly having forgotten what they just watched or not watched it at all.
It’s always weird when someone who is doing something shameful accuses the person exposing their shameful behaviour of bringing shame to them. It is them who deserve whatever disgrace is coming to them. They fear the truth.
Part of it is trying to save face. But I believe a major part is that shame is externally controlled. You don't feel shame if you dance naked in your living room with the blinds closed, but you will if people look through the windows. Thus, to them if it weren't for these nosy busybodies, they would not have felt shame and loss of face
So.. to graduate the university, they don’t need to study that hard. Why would they make it like there is no way to graduate university if students are not top 3 in their classes.
Its not about graduating university. It is about putting people into buckets early as the economy is being fully controlled by the government. They need people at the top (rulers) and the labourers (everyone else). If everyone is a ruler, then who is gonna be working as a labourer? That can't happen for a country of 1 billion, so the rigid system in place
On first sight the Chinese system of college qualifying exams seems fair. It gives hope to the lower classes to be able to advance in society. But finally it seems to be just a sham as the connected people take advantage of the system. I have been told that the system can be gamed in such a way in the past and finally there is the proof to it.
It's a pretty bad system though. Stupid people who can memorize get into universities, while smart people who are good at abstract thinking, but a bit worse at memorization get into worse places. Of course you need to be able to memorize some stuff to a certain degree, but at the end of the day it won't bring any advancement. You'll only be able to fulfill a task, which was chosen by others. The stuff which actually leads to the advancement is the abstract thinking. There are still a handful of graduates who are _actually_ smart though.
@@ThePandafriend But this might be a problem of how the test is performed. Anyhow, there are limited number of places at the best Universities and somehow you want to allocate them. I would think that without these tests stupid rich kids would fill up even more positions at the top notch places.
On the flip side, it is actually what is keep CCP down from growing any further. With a corrupt system, they really won't be able to cultivate a genuine intellectuals that would actually make huge contributions to their technological, scientific, and economic advancements. This is precisely why they are hell bent on stealing tech from other countries rather than doing actual R&D.
@@cafelatte1124 Chinese companies "steal" IP because they can get away with it. E.g. through some joint ventures with some forced (limited) know how sharing or by outright spying/stealing know how/trade secrets. Access to the Chinese market is the bargaining chip. Before Trump there might not have been enough pressure to change that. This helps to develop the economy faster, and there is lot' s of research and development done to buil upon that. Reaching the same level that the chinese economy is at would have taken much longer else. Let' s hope something will change. But it is too late for the non-chinese companies that were seriosly hurt or destroyed by these practices.
I would argue no system is fair- rich people will always have access to better tutors and teachers, Its the same in america its easier to get into a top 20 uni if you live in a good area and are rich becuase you have acess to good teachers, exteracirrulars and admissions coulselors that you can afford to pay tens of thousands of dollars to. Its not that poor people and people who live in low funded schools cant get into harvard its more that its way harder to get into those schools if youre poor
It's not just in China. In most of Asia, the only sure way to break out of poverty it to be an extreme nerd and ace every exam until you land a government job that pays well, comes with power and you can be one of the highest government official by the end of your career. The legitimate money, power and connections you make in the career would make you part of the elite class
@@chiarayavhnoska966 there is a key difference here. In the feudal age, most titles were inherited, and the peasants could do nothing, but remain peasants, until they die, and they kids too, and their kids after that. Having an exam which could potentially change that, is like holding a gladiator tournament, where the top fighter becomes part of the elite. This is pretty much the ideal scenario that can be. There is no such thing as "everyone is equal", and that people have 0 control over other people, with no external desires like money, and people only work because they genuinely like what they do. Thats some star trek nonsense
@@MoonCherryLove i shouldn't have skipped some logical steps evidently, but my point is exactly that, following in mere theories about capitalism, the main improvement from feudalism to capitalism should be more *vertical mobility* of the meritocratic type, which is what you seem to believe it's going on in the present world economy. but do you really?have you watched the video? or are we watching it solely to believe that this chinese shit show is 'communism'? LOL. 'cause, honestly, anyone who saw the video should have gathered that instead feudalism always comes back 'cause humans come with irrational greed, being only primates after all, maybe creating new social hierarchies, but still based on *who you are*, whom you're connected with in the social hierarchies, presenting itself as corruption and nepotism that defy both efficiency on a systemic level, and of course the mocked notion of meritocracy, whether said economy is pretending to be capitalistic or socialist is entirely irrelevant for the purpose of a healthy society that rewards actual hard work and talent. Also, fyi, in the pure theory of capitalism inheritances are a no-no, because, like you pointed out, that's feudal distribution of wealth, based on *who* you are, not what you can contribute to the satisfaction of any social need. ...or why are we watching these videos?
This video kind of showed that it doesn't matter how hard you study or how smart or capable you are, if you're not already part of the elite class you will be rejected and all your hard work stolen by those who are less deserving and intelligent but wealthier and more powerful
Well this happened in ancient China. Nothing changed much in the Chinese Empire. In every golden age of its empire, there will always be the downtrodden, there will always be injustice.
Do you have anything concrete to back that assertion up? That just because the imperial system was different that it was necessarily unfair? Under the imperial system there are many cases of poor students who studied for the exams and passed with honors, who rose to the highest positions possible. That the law, which was old, well established and known by all, was not enforced fairly for the most part? You should know that, even when central administration was breaking down towards the end of the late 1800's due to court intrigue and corruption, European legal experts were amazed at how well the bureaucratic and legal system retained its integrity away from the center despite that. That the system was so resilient as to be able to resist the central breakdown, and still carry on regardless, and to the observers secure a great deal of legal justice to ALL. When historians talk about the chaos of China towards the end of the imperial period, they are referring to the political center. Not until the very end did society finally collapse with the utter absence of any centralized government.
@@a.westenholz4032 Yes there are proves of cheats in Imperial China. People actually found answer sheets hidden in a 1000 yard pipe directly connected to the test site. Another way for the upper class to rig the system is to control the knowledge source. Books, teachers, etc.

Similar stuff happened in the US, where parents 'paid' to get their kids in (eventually the parents ended 'in'... the big-house). Presumably other kids at the bottom end were bumped off. The tragedy in China is the most deserving students are bumped off (and the offenders get off lightly).
i had depression when i was in high school. i developed friendship with one of my teachers because of that. unlike many other teachers she taught us stuffs outside curriculum, like how to be a proper human being etc. i admired her so much and appreciated how much she cared about our mental health. anyways, we seemed to get too close. due to my depression i also started to self-harm (mostly for attention). she advised me to suspend school and come back the next year. i fully trusted her so i did as she advised. immediately after i suspended school she deleted me on her contact list and refused to connect with me. the next year i tried to come back to school and the school administrators told me i was no longer their student and that i could not go there anymore. it was not how we originally agreed upon.... turned out the school felt like i was a shame for them, they wanted to get rid of me. they didnt want me because i had depression and i was too dramatic. my lifes completely fucked up bc of their deceptive approach to get rid of me. i was a straight A student and could have gone to a good university, had a good job, lived a good life. now im fucked up. helpless. cuz i only have a high school diploma. the school name is 花都区秀全中学 :) im so freaking angry watching this video and thinking about my past.

Those imposters took away the future of people already at disadvantage. CPC does many things well, but corruption is not one of them. At least on the local scale. Best wishes for the victims!
This is so common in China . My sister was qualified as a college teacher which is a very good job in China . But there’s a high official daughter took her job . The school arranged a fake exam to allow 3 people to take part in the exam , the other two were taking the exam for government show ( public schools are under control of communisity party ). No matter how well you did on the exam , the person from rich powerful family is always the number one who is “ qualified “ for the job .
Corruption of this scale and magnitude is soo deep, even your class mates, teachers and family will exploit you just to get ahead. This society is completely sick and disgusting.
I’d like to share a similar story from my country, just like in China, the university entrance exam in Vietnam is one high stakes exam that can literally determines one’s life. 2-3 years ago there was a hugh scandal involving local officials and many people of high social status in a small province, Ha Nam. These officials took advantage of their status and relations to illegally increase their children’s test scores who partaked in the exam in that same year, or as we called it “bought the scores”. A national investigation was conducted and there turned out to be a wide network of high class people who bought the scores for their children using their money and relationships, making you think how many times they’ve done this being suspected, people only suspected when it was a poor and small province like Ha Nam all of a sudden had examiee with highest scores in the whole country and surprised everyone. Thinking that some stupid rich lazy little brats who would go brag about how hard they studied to “earn themselves” a slot in the most prestigious schools in the whole country when in reality they stole it from someone, just makes my blood boil. I did get accepted to the school that I want, but think about all other peers who got their opportunities stolen from them, and thought to themselves that they were not good enough and all the hard works eventually didn’t pay off, seriously to a 17 year old kid, that’s depressing and heartbreaking af.
I saw an agreement paper signed from china given to nepalese students from Nepal. It was a scholarship program where they tell the students to go to the top medical university or so it said in china to learn. Fishy right? Also they were giving away I think 3000 RMB or something. Ofcourse they will be teaching in chinese. So basically in short you are giving away your nationality.

I can attest for the existence of similar cases, having personally known other stories. Like the video says, it takes years of sacrifice and hard work to get good grades from these entrance exams. Once you get admitted to post-secondary institutions, the colleges and universities there have pretty laid back curriculum and it would be easy to graduate and earn a degree. People whisper about such things at dinner tables. The girl I am aware of was top of her school. When it happened, her family can just shake heads and swallow it. Her family is not even poor but middle class... Ironically the communist revolution started as revolt against bureaucracy and support of the working class, especially farmers.
my mother was the number one student in her school in China. Her ability to get out and go to a great university is what allowed her to come to America where I live an incredible life, compared to what my parents grew up in, filled with privileges. I am brought to tears thinking about how that could have been stolen from her in one moment of corruption, and how that could have F-ed over her entire family, the generation above and below her. it's heartbreaking.

Part of it is trying to save face. But I believe a major part is that shame is externally controlled. You don't feel shame if you dance naked in your living room with the blinds closed, but you will if people look through the windows. Thus, to them if it weren't for these nosy busybodies, they would not have felt shame and loss of face

So.. to graduate the university, they don’t need to study that hard. Why would they make it like there is no way to graduate university if students are not top 3 in their classes.
Its not about graduating university. It is about putting people into buckets early as the economy is being fully controlled by the government. They need people at the top (rulers) and the labourers (everyone else). If everyone is a ruler, then who is gonna be working as a labourer?

On first sight the Chinese system of college qualifying exams seems fair. It gives hope to the lower classes to be able to advance in society. But finally it seems to be just a sham as the connected people take advantage of the system.
I have been told that the system can be gamed in such a way in the past and finally there is the proof to it.
It's a pretty bad system though. Stupid people who can memorize get into universities, while smart people who are good at abstract thinking, but a bit worse at memorization get into worse places. Of course you need to be able to memorize some stuff to a certain degree, but at the end of the day it won't bring any advancement. You'll only be able to fulfill a task, which was chosen by others. The stuff which actually leads to the advancement is the abstract thinking.
There are still a handful of graduates who are _actually_ smart though.
@@ThePandafriend But this might be a problem of how the test is performed.
Anyhow, there are limited number of places at the best Universities and somehow you want to allocate them.
I would think that without these tests stupid rich kids would fill up even more positions at the top notch places.
On the flip side, it is actually what is keep CCP down from growing any further. With a corrupt system, they really won't be able to cultivate a genuine intellectuals that would actually make huge contributions to their technological, scientific, and economic advancements. This is precisely why they are hell bent on stealing tech from other countries rather than doing actual R&D.

It's not just in China. In most of Asia, the only sure way to break out of poverty it to be an extreme nerd and ace every exam until you land a government job that pays well, comes with power and you can be one of the highest government official by the end of your career. The legitimate money, power and connections you make in the career would make you part of the elite class
Not just in Asia but the UK as well, the level of social inequality here is just behind the US.
yes, and that's called feudalism...
@@chiarayavhnoska966 there is a key difference here. In the feudal age, most titles were inherited, and the peasants could do nothing, but remain peasants, until they die, and they kids too, and their kids after that. Having an exam which could potentially change that, is like holding a gladiator tournament, where the top fighter becomes part of the elite. This is pretty much the ideal scenario that can be. There is no such thing as "everyone is equal", and that people have 0 control over other people, with no external desires like money, and people only work because they genuinely like what they do. Thats some star trek nonsense
@@MoonCherryLove i shouldn't have skipped some logical steps evidently, but my point is exactly that, following in mere theories about capitalism, the main improvement from feudalism to capitalism should be more *vertical mobility* of the meritocratic type, which is what you seem to believe it's going on in the present world economy. but do you really?have you watched the video? or are we watching it solely to believe that this chinese shit show is 'communism'? LOL. 'cause, honestly, anyone who saw the video should have gathered that instead feudalism always comes back 'cause humans come with irrational greed, being only primates after all, maybe creating new social hierarchies, but still based on *who you are*, whom you're connected with in the social hierarchies, presenting itself as corruption and nepotism that defy both efficiency on a systemic level, and of course the mocked notion of meritocracy, whether said economy is pretending to be capitalistic or socialist is entirely irrelevant for the purpose of a healthy society that rewards actual hard work and talent.
Also, fyi, in the pure theory of capitalism inheritances are a no-no, because, like you pointed out, that's feudal distribution of wealth, based on *who* you are, not what you can contribute to the satisfaction of any social need.
...or why are we watching these videos?
This video kind of showed that it doesn't matter how hard you study or how smart or capable you are, if you're not already part of the elite class you will be rejected and all your hard work stolen by those who are less deserving and intelligent but wealthier and more powerful

Well this happened in ancient China. Nothing changed much in the Chinese Empire. In every golden age of its empire, there will always be the downtrodden, there will always be injustice.
old habits never die
Do you have anything concrete to back that assertion up? That just because the imperial system was different that it was necessarily unfair? Under the imperial system there are many cases of poor students who studied for the exams and passed with honors, who rose to the highest positions possible. That the law, which was old, well established and known by all, was not enforced fairly for the most part?
You should know that, even when central administration was breaking down towards the end of the late 1800's due to court intrigue and corruption, European legal experts were amazed at how well the bureaucratic and legal system retained its integrity away from the center despite that. That the system was so resilient as to be able to resist the central breakdown, and still carry on regardless, and to the observers secure a great deal of legal justice to ALL.
When historians talk about the chaos of China towards the end of the imperial period, they are referring to the political center. Not until the very end did society finally collapse with the utter absence of any centralized government.

I’d like to share a similar story from my country, just like in China, the university entrance exam in Vietnam is one high stakes exam that can literally determines one’s life. 2-3 years ago there was a hugh scandal involving local officials and many people of high social status in a small province, Ha Nam. These officials took advantage of their status and relations to illegally increase their children’s test scores who partaked in the exam in that same year, or as we called it “bought the scores”. A national investigation was conducted and there turned out to be a wide network of high class people who bought the scores for their children using their money and relationships, making you think how many times they’ve done this being suspected, people only suspected when it was a poor and small province like Ha Nam all of a sudden had examiee with highest scores in the whole country and surprised everyone. Thinking that some stupid rich lazy little brats who would go brag about how hard they studied to “earn themselves” a slot in the most prestigious schools in the whole country when in reality they stole it from someone, just makes my blood boil. I did get accepted to the school that I want, but think about all other peers who got their opportunities stolen from them, and thought to themselves that they were not good enough and all the hard works eventually didn’t pay off, seriously to a 17 year old kid, that’s depressing and heartbreaking af.

All that hardwork and determination only to be snatched by some undeserving rich kid.
I know how to solve this. The person who bought the person’s grade should also pay the original person that got to grade so that way there’s no more issues.
that's like paying someone to take your tests . also illegal and a huge problem in India
@@rocketmanfossel1174 but at least both sides are satisfied where in this scenario one doesn’t get payment.
Imagine losing your entire childhood and teenage years on just studying for university, just for the Government to swoop in at the end and swap your grades with some privileged goverment kid.
My girl friend is from a remote rural area in China and she managed to enter top Chinese universities and get a PhD for her effort. It's appalling to know that the examination system has been tainted in such way.
@@icephoenix3565 I didn't say that. Why are you so sensitive?
This is unacceptable. The gaokao is meant to make competition equal for all but some poor kids have their scores taken
Im shook, but this is the reality.
"When you cannot solve the problem, solve the person who asked the question." This is oppression. Outrageous. I don't see how those who replaced these people will live any better, having such a guilty conscience for the rest of their lives. You can fool the world but you cannot fool yourself.
This video has been on my mind for weeks. Life is so unfair and she was not served the justice she deserved. How could they take so much from her with nothing in return. I’m disgusted and hurt for her. A world who tramples on the already undeserving poor.

poor and not attractive is a nightmare combination, no chance at all.
if you're just poor, but got beautiful face, no matter how dumb you're, you still got a chance.
genuinely what does that have to do with ANYTHING in this video??
is there nothing out of corruption's reach in China?
I can heavily relate to Chen, in terms of devoting oneself to one's study to elevate your family's financial status.
This pisses me off to no end.
There is nothing out of corruption's reach period. Not just in China.
As someone who have parents that are famers who worked so hard to give me the chance they did not have, this makes me so sad.
The unfairness.
The amount of work that father probably went through having the soothing tought that he works to make her daughter live a better life to only have it stolen by some lazy students. Plus the amount of work the daughter probably went through. She had to work at least twice as hard as the other students.
Monsters.
Thanks for telling the world what a life Chinese people are going through under CCP ruling.
Loved my education in Italy, no pressure. I admit uni was hard but there were no admission exams. I graduated with 2 years delay because I took my time enjoying life and always worked in fortune 500 companies. European life, no wonder why young Asian are desperate to leave their countries
This is horrible! Imagine if this happened here in the US with SAT or ACT scores, or even for exams needed for master programs like the LSAT MCAT GRE etc.!
You're joking right? College admissions scandal?
Yeah. Imagine......😄
I mean it already happens
That’s really sad. Imagine if she was the one able to attend college with her OWN achievements. She could have had a better future
are not communism about economic ideology that advocates for a classless society in which all property and wealth are communally-owned, instead of by individuals,
need money ???
or connection ???
isn't it harder to get past the vicious circle
"Competition is our ruination" W. E. Deming
As long as human beings continue to compete for resources instead of inventing new ones, we will always be fucked.
Communism is as classless as North Korea lives off tourism.
China is not communist. They are authoritarian capitalist.
Aka they embrace the free market, but the government has immense control over what businesses can and cannot do. Nepotism and cheating are more so products of Chinese culture which has been around for thousands of years, so not something so easy to change.
@@colinstone5479 so CCP is not Chinese Communist Party but
Chinese Capitalist Party
@@m.fajarkurniawan643 I guess you can put it that way yeah. As with everything else there's a lot of nuance and history, and I'm certainly no expert on the topic. Just that authoritarian/democratic are separate from socialist/capitalist, the first is how the government is run and the second is how the economy is run.
This is such a painful story. To have your hard work and your opportunity as a young person stolen from you !
Their voice need to be heard & not attack by CCP trolls!
Can you imagine this ? I feel so bad for these people. I’m going for my bachelors in computer science right now and I couldn’t imagine all that effort going towards someone else’s benefit especially when I come from a not so lucky family here In the US.
I read webnovel about 50-80's china, to think that this kind of things are still common nowadays is so chilling
I can attest for the existence of similar cases, having personally known other stories. Like the video says, it takes years of sacrifice and hard work to get good grades from these entrance exams. Once you get admitted to post-secondary institutions, the colleges and universities there have pretty laid back curriculum and it would be easy to graduate and earn a degree. People whisper about such things at dinner tables. The girl I am aware of was top of her school. When it happened, her family can just shake heads and swallow it. Her family is not even poor but middle class... Ironically the communist revolution started as revolt against bureaucracy and support of the working class, especially farmers.
my mother was the number one student in her school in China. Her ability to get out and go to a great university is what allowed her to come to America where I live an incredible life, compared to what my parents grew up in, filled with privileges. I am brought to tears thinking about how that could have been stolen from her in one moment of corruption, and how that could have F-ed over her entire family, the generation above and below her. it's heartbreaking.
Honestly, the girl who stole her report and got herself into university. Can live without any guilty, is astonishing.
Could you imagine if these people were free and could attend nearly any college/high school in the USA (or other free system)? They would be unstoppable.
Esp in terms of their determination.
I hope someday that China will be free of communism and slavery, I’d love a world where the largest of all countries was a fair and prosperous one.😞
Keep dreaming. They have some good honest people. But the systemic corruption has deep roots and is irredeemable.
Slavery? The fuck?
@@Kamiifusen I believe they may be referring to the Ugyhur concentration camps in Xinjiang, or perhaps even the spate of young women(often North Korean refugees) that are often sold into slavery in China (*officially *this is illegal but Guangxi)
@@midori397 Communism is definitely not a good thing, it’s a fantasy concept that has the facade of being an “economic system” and also is insanely prone to be abused by populist marketing in the service of demagogues.
It is inviable in real life due to relying on a bunch of flimsy axioms for its very core function, on top of that it promotes the centralization of power which further cements it as the best marketing ploy for hungry narcissists to create a fake movement and consolidate themselves as autocrats. Believing lies is very dangerous because it prompts people to take ill action based on bad information, so I do implore you to actually stress test your assumptions on communism’s efficacy.
@@midori397 you are definitely right on the fact that there is no communism in China, it is controlled by a mafia organization called The communist party, and there is no such thing as “true communism” because it cannot exist, it’s simply way too flimsy and badly designed. But it is a very great form of marketing due to the ideals it promotes and promises.
My observation - regardless of Nation , human nature is same , strangely this happen allover different government system weather USA , china or any other nations the sad reality is people who is at disadvantage Don't even know they were marginalized and even after years they do realize they are helpless :(
But in capitalistic countries, this is at least attenuated a bit by the minimum freedom each individuals are allowed to have. Peasant farmers can form independent trading companies or survive off their own produces, or maybe even make it big if they're lucky. In communistic countries like China the governing party will record and demand the resource in the name of socialism.
@@straypaper plz don't divert the topic to clash of ideology . What's I am referring above is a just my own thought/observation that human habit as an population doesn't changes . Like in above video it's about college entrance exam fraud in china and same is happend in USA as SAT scandal which you might to aware of , likewise in every political system or Nation there is fraud .
Jeez, in America you can just save up and start a business venture or real estate. If our country was an employee focused economy we would be a dust bin
Imagine the girl that replaces her go through 4 years of college with all the assignments and test now had her certificate voided sure a dumb idea. His dad can just send her to expensive oversea school if her score is not good.
The country that promotes itself to being so high in morals doesn’t actually care about legitimacy or integrity.

I can't even put to words how heart breaking this is. How many young hopefuls that would have given themselves and their families a better living situations have been robbed of this opportunity. These families have nothing to their names and their only hope is to give their children the education to be able to live a better life for their futures.
My country isn't "rich" by economic standards, but at least here, everyone has the equal opportunity to be educated and the young can enjoy their youth without killing themselves just so they could pass extensive examinations that can be taken away from them with a snap of a finger.
I cry and sympathize for the people of China and to the young ones. I hope in the future this oppression would end.
How different is this form UCLA admission scandal
An individual paid lots of money for someone to get into ucla, with china is a whole system of favoritism controlled by the only political party members
@@MrChaddb You can also argue that everything in the US political and economic system also favors modern day aristocrats so what's the difference there?
cant you imagine this corrupt system being used to rural poor people. repeteadly. God will never let you high society get over this . you will never knew what is coming
Some people are just brilliant, doesnt matter how much money you have. Some people barely needs to study, they read it once and they "Got It". I am not one of them. These folks are relatively rare, and being human, they need encouragement. :)
This happens everywhere, even here in the US. And it probably will continue to happen. The ones that got caught are the ones that are punished.
So much for socialist marxist country always end up borjouis - proletar pain sometime worse than capitalist country
Sometimes? Lol always... communism has never worked, it will never work, it is of the devil. At least with Capitalism people stand a chance... just too bad we don't have capitalism anywhere in the world today... only CRONIE capitalism.

Similar things happen in every country, bribes are illegal for colleges to except but it happens all the time.
There was a few wealthy people that got caught in the United States 2019-2020 that had been paying off schools so there kids could take the place of people that actually qualified school. I don't know about stolen identity as that is a new subject depending on situation.
Yeah but in American universities , students just drink and act with no morals and learn nothing.

The solution is easy. Just update the picture and show your ID and claim the degree for your self. The degree is in your name.
Chen’s father is a good father, because so many Chinese family (especially farmer family) prefer to let their daughter go out to work to support their son rather than let son support daughter
India and China have a rough relationship but their social structure are somewhat similar. Similar stuff like these happens in India too . For example big coaching institutions pay toppers and buy their ranks to get more money from people . Corruption happens every where and there is no stop to it .
To whoever said farmer is useless, you will finally realize how farmer change everyone life by providing main necessity
