Later, I went to the Chinese opera."
As soon as this remark came out, it immediately attracted public opinion. Some netizens believe that this behavior is suspected of "college entrance exam fraud." On the evening of May 29, the Ministry of Education responded via Weibo that it had requested the Shanxi Provincial Department of Education, relevant universities and middle schools to carry out investigations. At the same time, Tong Zhuo himself also wrote a letter of apology through his Weibo post, saying that he had applied to his alma mater Central Academy of Drama to revoke his academic qualifications.
On May 30th, the Shanxi Provincial Department of Education issued a statement saying that it attaches great importance to a certain self-proclaimed online student who changed the status of a previous student to a freshman to participate in the college entrance examination in a live webcast.
On June 8, the reporter called the relevant education department to learn about the investigation progress of the incident. The staff of Linfen Education Bureau said that they were unclear about the specific situation and hung up the phone. The staff of the Shanxi Provincial Department of Education responded that Shanxi attached great importance to identity fraud with the Zhuo College Entrance Examination and established a special working group to investigate.

The people pay special attention to the Tongzhuo incident. Shanxi is stepping up its handling and resolutely tracing the incident to the end.
