According to the French international broadcasting radio station, before Fang Binxing's trip to Wuhan University, it has aroused attention online. Many netizens called for protests at Wuhan University. Several netizens exchanged information about Fang Binxing on Twitter and learned that he would have a public speech in the computer department of Wuhan University, so they went there.

According to protesters on Twitter and Chinese Weibo, students prepared eggs at the scene. Protesters threw eggs at Fang Binxing first but missed. Then, the protesters took off their shoes and threw them at Fang Binxing and hit him. It was reported that the first shoe hit the target while the second one was blocked by a man and a woman.

The security guards and staff of Wuhan University had conflicts with the protesters. More than 10 people chased after the shoe-throwing protester to catch him, but this person left the scene smoothly under the obstruction of scholars present.

After the shoe-throwing protester left Wuhan University, some students who were present followed him out and bought him a pair of slippers. The students present took photos of the shoes as souvenirs.

Some teachers and students of Wuhan University revealed that after the incident, police cars appeared at the gate of the computer college, and the vice president of Wuhan University rushed to the scene. Wuhan University students who took photos were dissuaded. There is no news yet that the protesters have been caught or disciplined by the school.
