Breaking the "five-only" evaluation is a new topic in the development of higher education in the new era, and it is also a new topic that higher education evaluation must face. It is not only a practical problem, but also a theoretical problem. The difficulty focuses on how to identify the "five-only". The pain is that the logic of performatism behind the "five-only" cannot be completely broken, so its breakthrough can only be placed on the improvement of university governance system. "Five only" is not formed overnight. It is a complex product of long-term administrative centralism, managerialism, performationism, university ranking and centralized management. Its root lies in the conflict between academic logic and administrative logic, which results in the academic tournament under the influence of discipline evaluation and university ranking, and then the operation logic of "research only" appears in universities, which provides the growth soil for "five-only". Governance measures can only start from reducing the evaluation lever, reducing the pressure of university evaluation and teachers' academic pressure, and finally let the academic return to the true.
