Zhang said he doesn’t have many expectations for his daughter. He just wants her to come home to eat with her parents regularly when she reaches adulthood and to take care of them in their old age. If she can do that, he will always help her have a smooth and successful career.

Although Zhang Xuefeng publicly announced that he had a daughter, all other information and images of the child were kept secret.

Zhang’s statement about his career guidance for his daughter is controversial, as many people think that Zhang shows an arrogant attitude and a pragmatic mindset. However, many people also think that Zhang is very honest and straightforward, he is just telling the truth, but that truth makes many people find it difficult to accept.

"He's just stating the facts. Reality is always harsh. Zhang speaks from the perspective of a career counselor, and also from the very real calculations of a father who is worried about his child," a netizen commented.

On Chinese social networks, Zhang Xuefeng (born in 1984) has tens of millions of followers, he is considered a master of university application consulting. Zhang is the one who created a new job in the education sector in China, which is the profession of university application consulting.

Students facing the college entrance exam who want to use Zhang’s career counseling service must pay a fee of 12,000-17,000 yuan (equivalent to 42-60 million VND). Zhang’s service has become so popular that he no longer directly advises candidates. Zhang is now supported by a team of consultants.

Currently, there are parents who have registered several years in advance so that their children can definitely use the service provided by Zhang in the future.

"I have three companies, each of which is publicly valued at several hundred million yuan. Every year, I earn hundreds of thousands of yuan from copyrights for educational books, millions of yuan from tutoring classes, and a large amount from university application consulting services. You won't see me directly involved in my work anymore, because I've long since achieved financial freedom," Zhang said.

There are currently more than 1,600 companies in China that provide consulting services to help students apply to universities. Zhang is a pioneer in this field.

The idea for the service business came to Zhang when he was helping some friends apply for graduate programs. While helping his friends collect study materials and prepare their applications, Zhang came up with the idea of ​​providing study and application consulting services to college entrance exam candidates.

In 2016, Zhang began producing videos sharing tips on choosing majors at top universities in China. The content quickly went viral, making him famous.

Applying to universities in China takes into account a candidate's grades, entrance scores at the schools, and future career prospects. Zhang's motto when providing consulting services is: "Good college entrance exam scores are not as good as good application strategies."

Although Zhang is considered a leading figure in the field of admissions consulting, he has also attracted controversy for his statements. Zhang has publicly advised students not to apply to certain universities. Zhang later apologized to those schools.

Last year, Zhang was criticized by many education experts for his disrespectful comments about some training groups. However, many parents in China welcomed Zhang's frank and direct statements about the real prospects of some training programs.
