A Teacher's Reflection: Why a Group of Zhengzhou University Students' Visit to Kaifeng Led to a Whole School Lockdown in Xi'an

A university student from Shanxi Anhui would never have thought that he would be locked down by his school because of a group of university students from Zhengzhou riding their bikes to Kaifeng to eat real buns (note by the author). After the Kaifeng cycling event went viral, many people began to doubt that this was indeed the reason for the lockdown (note by the author). However, this is the explosive power of social media, and you can't dispute it. As for the rumors about foreign forces and the like, they are indeed just scaring oneself. As a foreign force, I saw it a few days ago and didn't even bother to post it, thinking it was just a gathering of young people, and there was no need to report it to the domestic media. Moreover, the whole process was waving the national flag and singing the national anthem, and I'm afraid someone will say I'm whitewashing the Communist Party. However, the facts have proven that even a positive energy event, promoting tourism and enhancing the city's reputation, can be done very beautifully by the local government, even if you wave the flag and sing the national anthem and shout 'Long live the Communist Party.' Because some high-ranking people saw you all gathering and were scared out of their wits. I suddenly felt a little sorry for the professor who cursed these university students as 'drunk and empty rice bags' on the 7th, and if he were to curse them again today, he would probably not be talked to by the school.
