National University of Defense Technology · Full chronicle and history

It is circulating online that the National University of Defense Technology is carrying out an "information cleanup," strictly investigating the use of circumventing the Great Firewall and foreign tools, requiring computers and cabinets to be checked person by person and room by room, emphasizing that "there must be no doors that cannot be opened," and that any discovered problem will result in a one-vote veto.

In July 2026, a student in Henan who scored 702 on the gaokao failed the political review when applying to the National University of Defense Technology; the family posted a video claiming the failure was suspected to be linked to the applicant's grandfather having a prison record in his youth.
