As the saying goes, always be vigilant against fire and theft. With the Spring Festival approaching, all levels of departments should raise their awareness of safety precautions. Especially some special departments, the more important the holiday, the more they should tighten the nerves of safe production, otherwise, once an accident occurs, it is likely to bring an irreversible situation.

On the morning of January 20th, a breaking news spread across the entire network. News broke that a school in Nanyang, Henan, had a sudden fire, causing serious casualties. Subsequently, major mainstream media reported the incident, and the news quickly topped the trending search list, with the number of views quickly exceeding tens of millions.

It is reported that this tragedy occurred on the evening of January 19th, when a school in Dushu Town, Fangcheng County, Nanyang, Henan, suddenly caught fire. After the fire broke out, someone immediately called the police. After receiving the news, the local emergency management department immediately launched the emergency response plan for sudden incidents, and joined the public security, fire, medical and other rescue forces to rush to the scene for disposal.
According to insiders, because the school involved was a boarding school, and the fire occurred around 11 o’clock in the evening, when the children had already fallen asleep, many people were trapped in the fire and could not escape.

Witness Ms. Zhou said that the fire occurred in a dormitory building. At the time of the incident, the fire was blazing, and many fire trucks rushed to the scene to put out the fire, as well as police cars and 120 ambulances to assist in the rescue.
According to the news disclosed by CCTV News on the morning of January 20th, at around 23:00 on January 19th, the 119 command center of Fangcheng County, Nanyang, Henan, received a report that a fire had occurred in a dormitory of Yingcai School in Yanshanpu Village, Dushu Town. The fire rescue team of Fangcheng County quickly arrived at the scene and extinguished the open fire at 23:38.

The news said that the accident caused 13 deaths and 1 injury. The injured are being treated in the hospital, and their vital signs are currently stable.
The news did not disclose the specific cause of the fire, nor did it release pictures of the scene, or even mention the identity of the dead and injured. According to a source who wished to remain anonymous, because the school involved was a kindergarten and elementary school boarding school, the dead and injured were likely to be the children living in the school.
Some resourceful netizens have dug up the specific information of the school involved, and found that Fangcheng County Dushu Town Yingcai School was established on June 13, 2012, and its registered address is located in Weisan Road, Dushu Town, Fangcheng County, Nanyang City, Henan Province.
The information shows that Yingcai School Yanshanpu Community Branch is located at the intersection of Huangtuwa Road, Yanshanpu New Community. The school covers an area of 35 acres and a construction area of about 17,000 square meters. The school is divided into elementary school and kindergarten, and implements boarding management and small class teaching.

The school claims that it adheres to the educational philosophy of “allowing every child to develop and allowing every child to be sunny and bright”, adheres to the educational ideas of specialization and branding, highlights the advantages of boarding, and promotes the comprehensive, autonomous, harmonious, and sustainable development of students.
So, how did this fire happen? Was it an accident or was it intentional? Were there any negligence of responsibility or violations? These questions have aroused public attention and doubts.
After the accident, the local government began to set up an accident disposal command center and quickly launched accident investigation and aftermath disposal work.
After preliminary investigation, three shocking clues were discovered:
1. Yingcai School is a private school. It was founded by Principal Zhang, who mainly recruits poor students from rural areas and provides free education and accommodation. However, the school’s educational conditions are very simple, and the teaching facilities and safety equipment are not perfect, and even some links have serious safety hazards.
2. The dormitory where the fire started had no windows. Witnesses said that the fire occurred in a boys’ dormitory. This dormitory was a dilapidated bungalow with no windows, only a door, and a lock on the door. These students are usually locked inside and cannot enter and exit at will. They can only come out during class and meals. Some students said that this was a “discipline” measure taken by the principal to prevent students from escaping or making trouble.
3. There were notes of complaint written in the dormitory. According to firefighters, the fire started on a bed in the dormitory, and there was a pile of charred paper on the bed, with some words written on it. After identification, these papers were some students’ homework books, on which some words of complaint and dissatisfaction were written, such as “I want to go home”, “I hate it here”, “I want freedom”, etc. These papers may have been ignited by the students with a lighter to vent their emotions, but because there were no ventilation facilities in the dormitory, the fire quickly spread and caused a fire.

These findings made people extremely angry and dissatisfied with the school and the principal’s behavior. Combined with media reports, in addition to the intuitive information, it is not difficult to find the following 3 hidden information.
1. This is a boarding school. January 19th was Friday. Normally, students should have gone home for the weekend, but the children were still living in the dormitory, which is likely to be boarding.
2. Most of the children are left-behind children. The school is located in Yanshanpu Village, Dushu Town. Why do children still need to board so close to home? The most likely reason is that many of the children’s parents are working outside, and boarding is the best choice for the children.
3. The school is likely to be private. Generally speaking, public schools are mostly called a certain township elementary school or school. Those called Yingcai or other names are mostly private schools.

This school not only failed to provide students with a safe and comfortable learning environment, but also subjected students to cruel abuse and imprisonment, depriving them of their basic human rights and dignity. This is a kind of harm and insult to the students, and also a kind of desecration and trampling on education.
After the accident, the principal of the school involved, Zhang, has been controlled by the police. It is reported that Zhang has no remorse or apology for his behavior, but instead claimed that he was for the good of the students, so that they could study hard without being disturbed and tempted by the outside world.
In the case of 13 students dying, he even said that these students were all useless, and their lives and deaths had nothing to do with him.

Can he still be a teacher and principal by saying such things?
