  Yu Minhong said in the video that he is collecting high-quality educational resources and courses that New Oriental has concentrated in the past few years. After sorting and classifying them, they will be shared on the platform by primary and secondary school students across the country and those with learning needs within the scope of state permission.

The content is not limited to primary and secondary school courses, but will also increase courses for adults.

After the platform is announced, free course services will be provided.

  On the 26th, the National Library of China clarified the information circulating on the Internet that "New Oriental's high-quality courses can be accessed through the National Digital Library for free".

  Guotu said that it has never received any "New Oriental Excellent Course" resources donated by any institution or individual.

"At present, the 'New Oriental Multimedia Learning Library' resource that provides services on the website of our library is a commercial database purchased by our library in 2008. Since then, our library has successively purchased new course resources according to the funding situation and provided services to the public free of charge."

  Yu Minhong also said in the video that New Oriental has been cooperating with the National Library of China, and the National Library purchased some of the courses of New Oriental and put them in the National Map database for free access.

"So it's what the National Library does to make it free." (End)
