While reassuring parents that the school is operating, they said they would go bankrupt and leave Hong Kong forever
Wang Baixian has always referred to himself as a parent, working hard to save his children back to school.
But in June of this year, his wife, Kelly Hill’s director Lu Qiaoer, was pursued by a law firm for a service fee of 950,000 yuan because the school building was involved in a lawsuit.
The lawsuit disclosed that Wang Baixian once said that the company has received a winding-up order and will go bankrupt, and he will leave Hong Kong forever, and his wife's assets have also been frozen.
Wang Baixian admitted that he thought the school could not be saved at the time, and had planned to go bankrupt and liquidated: "Everyone did not know that a large number of cheques were missing and there was no income. I think this is a normal thing a business man would do. If he could not be saved, he filed for bankruptcy. Seeing many parents insisting, we will continue to operate."
According to the documents, he said at the time that he planned to "leave Hong Kong for good" (leave Hong Kong for good), and he said, "I didn't intend to leave Hong Kong... This was just what I told the other party at the time. I said I planned to go to Shanghai."
Wang Baixian said that his departure from Hong Kong took place at the end of June, that is, after he repeatedly assured parents that the school would operate as usual.
The High Court only issued a winding-up order to the Kailishan affiliate in July, and there was a discrepancy in time.

Think someone deliberately discredited
Facing all kinds of controversies, Wang Baixian said: "This is someone deliberately discrediting, it's as simple as that. What do you want? Do you want me to announce that the school will be closed tomorrow? I want more than a hundred children to have no books to read? I think everyone has to be a little conscientious."
"My wife is an innocent housewife. In order to give her a big gift, I would invest with others, and promised Kailishan to help with overseas development. However, my family's misfortune has implicated her." Wang Baixian said, will continue to operate Good school, "I think this is the spirit of education. The spirit of Kailishan is to change if you make a mistake and never give up."

Parent: Has hurt the child
The truth about the chaos in Mount Kelly has yet to be revealed, but the staff and students have been greatly affected.
Mr. J (pseudonym), a parent who has transferred his child to another school, said bluntly that the incident has hurt the children: "It seems that the management has a lot of big talk. The director is his wife, and the directors of other affiliated companies are also his wife. Mother is the school supervisor. Don’t say anything. It’s just the return of the founder and being a parent. It’s impossible. It’s basically the same people behind the whole thing. Whether you cheat money, don’t lie to the children’s future. The most despicable thing is to hurt the children."
