山東大學此前曾深陷留學生“學伴風波”。

The case came amid controversy surrounding the cyber-bullying and harassment of female students at the university, following the news of a "buddy system" which has sparked widespread uproar since July.

山東大學留學生"學伴"計劃，2019年7月6日經由網友爆料後，迅速引起熱議。導致該校女學生受到網絡欺凌和暴力。

In 2018, the university allocated 141 volunteers or "buddies" for 47 international students who were predominantly male to help foreign students adapt more easily to life in China. A rumor later surfaced that the majority of volunteers were female, though the rumor was later denied by the university.

2018年，山東大學爲47位以男性爲主的留學生分配了141名志願者或稱“學伴”，以幫助外國學生更計劃輕鬆地適應中國的生活。後來有謠言說，大多數志願者是女性，儘管後來謠傳被大學否認。

Critics said the program reflects the stigma and prejudice over gender and race as well as a mindset that foreigners are superior deeply rooted in some Chinese. Female students at the university were attacked online with malicious words as a result of the controversy.

有人批評說，這項計劃反映出性別和種族歧視，以及紮根在一些中國人心中，外國人至上的心態。這場“學伴風波”導致該大學的女學生在網上遭到惡意攻擊。

事發之後，#萬達開除涉事主持人#很快上了熱搜。

The topic "Wanda fires host" soon made its way to the hot topic list on Weibo, trending by noon on Friday. The topic has been viewed 160 million times, and netizens appear to support Wanda's decision.

週五中午，#萬達開除涉事主持人#這一話題很快上了微博熱搜。 截止發稿該話題已被瀏覽1.6億次，大部分網友支持萬達的決定。

"What the host said was sexual discrimination and sexual harassment, and it insulted all female university students. He deserved to be dismissed," one netizen commented.

一位網友評論說：“主持人說的話是性歧視和性騷擾，侮辱了所有女大學生。他應該被開除。”

Netizens also demanded Shandong University explain its "buddy system" in detail to disperse controversy. The university said in a July post that they would evaluate the system, but no updates have since arisen.

網友還要求山東大學詳細解釋其“學伴制度”，以消除爭議。 該大學在七月份的聲明中表示，他們將對“學伴制度”進行評估，但此後再無下文。
