Uprising at a Beijing School, Total Lockdown!! Too Much Bullying — Students Are the Last People You Want to Provoke! The Biggest Misconception Inside the Wall! Qiqi Baba TALK『Refresh Your Mind 784』20260930
In this episode, host Qi Qi discusses the collective protests by students and parents triggered by the replacement of the principal and a large number of teachers from Shandong at Beijing No. 18 High School. The incident began with the new principal and teachers having substandard Mandarin, poor teaching quality, and an open letter from the principal accusing students of lacking basic manners. It was later exposed that the principal is allegedly a convicted rapist. The show expands this into an analysis of the deep class and regional discrimination within the Great Firewall, pointing out that its cruelty far exceeds Western racism, and analyzes the deep-seated reasons why such protests are difficult to fundamentally resolve due to the collusion of privileged interests.

Hello everyone, welcome to 788, I am Qi Qi. There was a school in Beijing that had a movement erupting, and many netizens felt that this was basically an uprising. Here is what happened: because Beijing No. 18 High School replaced its principal with one from Shandong, and after the principal took office, the teachers for grade 11 and 12 were successively replaced by teachers from Shandong. If they were just teachers of Shandong origin, there wouldn't be any other problem, but the main issue is that they selected individuals who might be unqualified, whose Mandarin wasn't even very good, so Beijing students struggled a bit to understand the Shandong accent. Then the students also reported that these teachers' classes were quite perfunctory, so at the beginning of the semester they had already expressed their dissatisfaction. After the principal was changed, both students and parents provided feedback, but there was no result whatsoever, no handling, and no effect. Furthermore, the principal of this school even published an open letter saying that the students of this school had no manners or something similar. Originally, people were already somewhat resigned to their fate, but then it was discovered that this principal was allegedly a person with a prior record for rape, yes, having committed a very serious crime. Afterward, combined with these issues that continued to be ignored and unresolved while the principal still acted with impunity, the students simply couldn't take it anymore and protested collectively. Actually, I think this is a relatively good phenomenon, because if no matter how you are oppressed, you just accept it, then there really is no hope at all. Moreover, this incident caused a huge stir locally in Beijing. I know everyone might not be able to see related information inside the Great Firewall, but in reality, this incident caused a massive uproar.
We can turn on the computers, sometimes we go to two peoples' houses.
No, don't let others film any jokes.
We have a lot of things to do, it doesn't matter, no, when we go to Hachinohe city, sometimes it's guarding the Yellow River of noodles, you go to this problem too, going to the office is to avoid the problem? No, we started a bit, from the suspicion of senior high school year three, isn't it a bunch of people? You guys aren't even letting senior high school year three come down, I just called out.
Just called out.
Quick quick quick witness it, our profile pictures are different now, or are these appearing as the so-called purpose of schools making money? Why would we generally say what the teachers say, students listen and I know how to say it, then I have reason to calculate whether you are providing outside.
I'm still civilized, hahaha.
Let me make it clear, speak standardly, it appeared, too much, let me make it clear, I said it I said it, let's put it more casually, speak Mandarin.
Speak Mandarin.
Go shout at the door.
Tai Chi is not walking anymore, I said.
They said it's not walking anymore, the principal has to run, I said, no, what are they all doing?
They are making the principal speak Mandarin, hahaha.
What are you doing, go and walk with you for a bit.
You looked again.
Gone.
Are they gone?
What should we do?
No, shouting over there, making the principal speak Mandarin and then bringing a standard Mandarin accent, still not working.
You go to that Taiwan again, on the right, no, why is nobody watching?
Go shout at the door, go shout at the door.
Hey, didn't you hang up that standard Mandarin live stream this morning, what kind of gift is that, you are there, isn't there still one more? Press the pressure, press it, there's still one more, this is right for you, this is still wrong.
Who am I, these two people are still shouting, holy shit it's like a movie, holding it in like a movie.
Did you follow me? I'll send you a message later to see who I should send it to.
Search for me first, give me the video, give me the video.
Fine fine fine fine, okay okay okay.
But actually you go back and wait a moment and it's all me, what should he do about this, can he still be here?
Hey, is this principal good or can this principal do it?
Is this principal?
The previous principal.
That smelly outer-clothes person was just standing there.
What is his position now? Demoted, not the secretary-principal, nobody as director, he has the chief secretary, what does it mean when he follows over? He's like a door blocker, you say younger, once he leaves there's no principal, I said, fucking idiots, their fucking idiot students and the principal helped them lock class 4, what lock?
That that has class 4, senior high class 4, it's Shandong teachers who locked them in, otherwise they would come out, locked them in the classroom not letting them come out, I'll go together.
Go together, go together, go together, this time it must succeed, otherwise this principal, anyway, whether greetings to you are good or not, can we succeed later anyway, it's also my fault, then if you greet us you tell us, if we can't succeed today at the door, we don't know anyone, fucking hell, we don't know anyone, fucking hell, if we don't know anyone fucking get lost, good, you're fucking awesome, my big brother is my dad today.
I won't take this shit.
Fucking get lost, no, still want to find me? Fucking scared to death.
Fucking came down.
Fucking go to the door and shout, I want to let others see him fucking.
Hey, won't you use a megaphone, get me a megaphone.
Where is it? I'll get some water to drink, we'll get that dog brother like this, get me an old ghost to drink, is joke mouth not joke mouth? No, you said yes, we shouted with you, did you hear it? I heard it, hey, what on earth are you selling there, what on earth are you selling there?
Haha, fucking awesome.
Or is it quite awesome, we made the riot police want to arrest us, hey, is there an inspection teacher tomorrow? Class 4 didn't even come out, locked in class 4 with the teacher.
Now these adults, they go there.
Go directly to the door, I said left ear, left ear, in a while if really nobody is found someone go there, just keep shouting there, someone will definitely be there, what are you just standing here wasting time? No, is that fucking principal scared? Just five people in each class, they want to take the good.
My meaning is five people in each class, and then all the other people trail behind, usually just five people, this can work, 1 2 3 4, and then 1 2 3.
Come down and speak.
Both are true. I have briefly mentioned this to friends before, but today I will go into more detail. When it comes to discrimination, racial discrimination in foreign countries is really just a drop in the bucket. If you have deeply understood or experienced the discrimination within the Great Firewall, you would know what true unfair treatment and discrimination really mean—there is regional discrimination, as well as discrimination based on other factors. Let me give you an example: why does everyone always feel that there is so much racial discrimination abroad? It is because they make a big fuss about it, they don't cover it up, they don't take it for granted, and they are actively fighting against it. However, I feel that friends within the Great Firewall have already become accustomed to and accepted the unfair treatment or discrimination brought about by this environment, so there is actually nothing to argue about. When such phenomena appear, many people will ask, 'Is there no such thing in Asia?' or 'Is there no such thing within the Great Firewall?' It is just like many people in the United States or Europe; if they have to work a full eight hours a day, they will say their work is too hard, or if they feel they don't live in a very good house or drive a very good car, they will say their life is miserable. They might even be in a state of having a house and a car—never mind what kind of house or car it is, but the house can shelter them from the wind and rain, and the car can run normally—yet they might still claim to be part of the impoverished population and cry very sadly. But this is already a matter of silent endurance within the Great Firewall, right? So, every time Chinese netizens see white people, or see Europeans or Americans painfully complaining about things in their lives that make them feel like the sky is falling, they show a very confused expression. Because we know that for many friends in China, perhaps one has to live a life like the protagonist in 'To Live' for people to say, 'You are truly miserable.' Therefore, if people have different experiences, it may be difficult to empathize with certain things because the severity of the living environment is completely different. This is actually the same; the constant noise abroad about how terrible the harm caused to their race is, is really just a drizzle. Because like the class discrimination within the Great Firewall, once you have felt it, you will truly find it suffocating. Hell, appearance, family background, etc.—you will be discriminated against for all sorts of reasons. You might not even know the reason, yet someone could be discriminating against you. And then, this can have an impact on your life. If you are very unlucky and encounter someone with severe discriminatory tendencies, they might truly make your life unbearable. Everyone must know that in a place that does not treat people as human beings at all, a place where there is no human rights to speak of, discrimination will definitely be the most severe, and you will be discriminated against in every aspect. Like this principal, he must be in a certain circle, so even if he has some unfavorable background, he can still be parachuted into Beijing to serve as a principal. To give a simpler example, everyone should still remember the Chained Woman incident, right? At that time, it was revealed that there were sixteen people involved in human trafficking. Why wasn't it handled? It was because there were too many people involved; this circle of theirs has intertwined interests, and they have already spread out, with everyone having their own position. Together, they form a large circle of interest groups. Therefore, it is impossible for the CCP Central Committee to deal with them for the sake of the so-called common people; this is impossible because they have all kinds of complicated connections. Since this person could be parachuted in, he must also be in such a circle, and those people are not to be trifled with. So, do you think the students' protests over this matter will be useful? No, because the intensity of such protests is far from enough.
