Recently, according to CCTV reports, some parents reported that their children were participating in the " Ye Shengtao Cup " Chinese Youth Composition Competition, multiple training institutions promised parents that they could buy the first or second prizes of the Beijing competition district of the competition as long as they spent about 10,000 yuan, and even get the chance to get extra points for "primary school to junior high school". However, these students did not participate in the "Ye Shengtao Cup National New Essay Competition for Middle School Students" which was approved by the Ministry of Education and named after Ye Shengtao , but the "Ye Shengtao Cup Chinese Youth Composition Competition" held by a company called "Beijing Shengtao Wenrun Education and Culture Co., Ltd.". This "Ye Sheng Tao Cup" is not the "Ye Sheng Tao Cup". The competition that can guarantee the prize of 10,000 yuan is actually a "counterfeit goods". From 2016 to the present, the counterfeit "Ye Shengtao Cup" has held 31 competitions. Some staff from educational institutions told reporters that although the competition was exposed, as long as the market demand is still there and after this gust of storm, related services may continue.

Shanghai Rumor Refuting Platform reporter found that in addition to the above-mentioned "counterfeit goods", there are also many other "counterfeit goods". Even though has been exposed by the media, there are still many accounts of the counterfeit "Ye Shengtao Cup" on Sina Weibo. For example, a blue V account called "Ye Shengtao Cup Organizing Committee" is certified on Weibo as Beijing Yeshi International Education Technology Co., Ltd. The occupational information of another account "Ye Shengtao Cup" is Beijing Giant School. There is also an account called "Ye Shengtao Cup New Composition Competition", whose avatar is different from the avatar on the official website of the genuine "Ye Shengtao Cup".
△The copycat "Ye Shengtao Cup" account
on Weibo has truly been approved by the Ministry of Education and named after the famous writer and educator Ye Shengtaoxian in my country. It is called "'Ye Shengtao Cup' National New Essay Competition for Middle School Students". This competition was held since 2003 and has been held until the 18th session. Many candidates have been admitted to the university for winning awards in this competition. The competition is only held for students in high school (including vocational high school, technical secondary school, etc.). The competition is sponsored by the China Contemporary Literature Research Association, hosted by the China Contemporary Literature Research Association Campus Literature Committee and the China Children's Press and Publishing House "High School Students" Magazine.
△The statement released by the genuine "Ye Shengtao Cup" on its official website
and the genuine "Ye Shengtao Cup" are full of flaws. For example,
1. Different names: genuine name is "'Ye Shengtao Cup' National New Composition Competition for Middle School Students", "counterfeit goods" tamper with the name;
2. Different targets for people: genuine "Ye Shengtao Cup" is high school students (including vocational high school, technical secondary school, etc.), and "counterfeit goods" is for primary school students;
3. Different organizers: genuine "Ye Shengtao Cup" is sponsored by the China Contemporary Literature Research Association, hosted by the Campus Literature Committee of the China Contemporary Literature Research Association and the China Children's Press and Publishing House "Secondary Students" magazine. "Copycats" are organized by xx company. If
cannot be compared one by one, then the following three characteristics of can help teachers and parents easily see through the routine of copycat training:
1. The registration fee for "counterfeit goods" is high. The genuine "Ye Shengtao Cup" competition is a public welfare activity and no participation fee is charged throughout the process. "Copycats" require parents to pay money continuously through preliminary and semi-finals. According to Xinhua Daily Telegraph, registration fees are required to participate in most composition competitions, ranging from 50 to 200 yuan. In some well-known composition competitions for primary and secondary school students across the country, the number of participants is as high as 100,000 to 300,000. Although the amount of a single transaction seems to be small, the income from the registration fee alone has exceeded 10 million yuan. And "the registration fee is just a 'down payment'." Yu Long, a senior high school student in Changchun who has rich experience in participating in the competition, told reporters that many composition competitions require promotions at all levels to reach the final stage. Each time you advance, you have to pay a fee to register. Each payment will increase the amount: "For example, the registration fee for the preliminary round is 100 yuan, and the registration fee for the rematch is 200 yuan. If you win the provincial third prize in the rematch, you can't participate in the national competition anymore.But I didn't expect that you could also participate in the 'Resurrection Competition'. Of course, it is not in vain to participate. In addition to the higher registration fee, the resurrection competition must also be accompanied by relevant online courses and purchase designated learning materials. After counting seven or eight, it cannot be stopped by five or six hundred yuan. "
2. "Copycat" is a clever name for charges. The organizing committee of the genuine "Ye Shengtao Cup" event does not organize related fee training and summer camp activities. In addition to paying registration fees during the promotion process, some copycat composition competitions must also participate in activities such as "Writing Summer Camp" and "Little Writer Exchange Camp". Some composition competitions do not charge registration fees in name, but require that the publication published by the organizer must be ordered. The essays must be written on the manuscript paper attached to the magazine. The copy is invalid, so that the charges are charged in disguise and the sales of the publication will be driven. .
3. "Copycat" won the prize. According to China Radio International, Xueda Education Beijing Branch claimed that if you participate in the "Ye Shengtao Cup" Chinese Youth Composition Competition, you can win the prize by paying money. The minimum first prize is 12,000 yuan and the minimum second prize is 9,000 yuan. In fact, parents can be regarded as a liar in any training institution that claims to be "guaranteed and guaranteed" to be the one who can be regarded as a liar.
In addition, in December 2020, the Ministry of Education website released the "National Competition for Primary and Secondary Students" Competitions must be approved before they can be held. No competition awards are linked to admissions in the basic education stage. It is clearly stated that national competitions for primary and secondary school students are managed in a list and updated every year. In August 2020, the Ministry of Education issued the "Notice on the Announcement of National Competitions for Primary and Secondary School Students in the 2020-2021 Academic Year", which published 35 competition information approved. All so-called national competitions that are not on the list are illegal competitions, and parents can also identify them according to the list. It is worth emphasizing that The Notice of the General Office of the Ministry of Education on Further Strengthening the Management of National Competition Activities for Primary and Secondary School Students" also clarifies that any competition award is not used as the basis for extra points for admission in the basic education stage.
