The genius girl Jiang Ping took a ranking, which made some people anxious.
They began to find ways to prove that she was fake, cheating, and a premeditated hype.
It was first proposed by Fang Zhouzi, who ran to the United States, and then some questioning voices began to appear, even cynicism.
Of course, Jiang Ping is not unquestionable, but you have to come up with evidence. If you can't even read the topic and only reason according to your own logic and experience, this is obviously superficial and ignorant.
According to someone Fang, there are three points that do not conform to normal logic:
The first is an open-book exam, 48 hours of time, and you can also use computer software, can this represent Jiang Ping's real level?
The second is the team behind it, Jiang Ping is just a sophomore level kid, and she is a clothing major, if there is no team behind her, it is impossible to complete such a high-level exam.
The third is the usual results, Jiang Ping's recent monthly exam mathematics is only 83 points, and the full score is 150 points, in addition, the mathematics papers were not completed during the high school entrance examination, and even the mathematical symbols can be written incorrectly, why do you beat a group of mathematical geniuses from famous schools?
From the point of view of logical reasoning, these doubts are not unreasonable, but there is no convincing evidence. Based on the arguments of all parties, I think that the probability of Jiang Ping's results being fraudulent is extremely low, and these three questions cannot withstand scrutiny and are full of loopholes:
Regarding the first article, open-book examination and examination time. This is the same for all the 801 contestants who participated in the competition, not that only Jiang Ping was given 48 hours to open the book. With the same format and time, the one with the highest score wins, what's the problem?
Regarding the second article, it can better set off Jiang Ping's power. Speaking of teams, aren't the resources behind those master's and doctoral students majoring in mathematics from Qingbei Cambridge Stanford more powerful? And what does Jiang Ping have? There is a math teacher behind it, and at most a Lianshui secondary school.
With regard to the third point, I don't think it's tenable. Because the usual exams do not represent the performance of the competition, not to mention that there is no inevitable logical relationship between elementary mathematics and advanced mathematics, and Jiang Ping solves questions slowly, and the longer exam time can give full play to her advantages.
As for her problem-solving methods and writing symbols, she is even more nitpicky. As long as you can solve the problem in your own way, how many steps does it take to care of people? The non-standard writing of symbols is nothing more than the fact that Jiang Ping taught himself "Partial Differential" and did not receive formal training in high mathematics.
So you don't question it, but when you question it, you think Jiang Ping is even more amazing. A group of people don't look at the results and look at the details, with a certain sense of intellectual superiority, and treat the genius girl who finally stood out with a scrutinizing eye, and always feel a little unkind, and even a feeling of breaking the defense.
In fact, these mathematics doctors who participated in the competition, including some mathematics masters from Tsinghua University and Oxford, affirmed the achievements and abilities of this genius girl. I found that most of the people who questioned were non-math majors, and they did not have the ability to review Jiang Ping's answers, so they only stared at how to write Jiang Ping's ∑, and whether the above horizontal line should be written from the left or the right first.
It took me a long time to find a math master's review. He believes that although Jiang Ping's writing is not standardized, it is precisely this small flaw that proves that Jiang Ping is indeed self-taught. It can also be seen from the complexity of her answer that if she is from a professional background, there will be no redundant 4th and 5th formulas in the video. This also shows that the solution to the problem is the result of Jiang Ping's self-thinking, rather than copying ready-made answers.
What's more, this widely circulated problem-solving video is not Jiang Ping's deliberate pose. According to media reports, it is rumored on the Internet that Ali Damo Academy, which is an expert organized by Ali, the organizer of the mathematics competition, made a special trip to Lianshui Secondary Vocational School for the sake of prudence and found Jiang Ping's questions on the spot. That's not why this year's shortlist and rankings were delayed by a week.
It's such an inspirational thing, but in many people just can't stand it. Why can't I stand it, because Jiang Ping broke their cognitive hole and the rules of the game, and even moved their cheese. Because Jiang Ping is a girl, and she is only 17 years old. is also because Jiang Ping is only a secondary school student, and he is also a student of fashion design. So they couldn't stand it, and then they broke the defense.
Therefore, they want to encircle and suppress Lianshui, frame Jiang Ping, and even put a big hat on the education system to those who feel sorry for Jiang Ping. They can't tolerate Jiang Ping's "accident", they can't see other people's talent coming from behind, and they are even more unwilling to admit the excellence of others, they can't help but say that these people are really bad.
In essence, forcing Jiang Ping to prove her innocence is as bad as forcing Yu Xiuhua to compose poems on the spot. To say something that is not afraid of offending people, it is good to question the spirit, but to question everything is a disease.
The reason why Jiang Ping can arouse almost one-sided exclamation and blessings, in addition to the empathy of cherishing talents and loving talents, I think the main reason is the three major values she brings to our society:
First, heroes don't ask where they come from.
You can imagine that an open global mathematics competition, the difficulty of which is not inferior to the Huashan sword in the martial arts world, there is no threshold, no sects, whoever has the ability will come, and then Qingbei, Cambridge, and MIT will all come.
Unexpectedly, a dark horse suddenly appeared halfway, a little-known 17-year-old tailor, who actually beat a group of masters into the water. In the end, the alliance leader personally went out to try out the recruitment to confirm that the results were valid, and such a legendary story is really heartbreaking.
This tells us that these ordinary people who can't get into high school, move bricks on construction sites, and shuttle through the streets and alleys to deliver takeaways, even if we have no academic qualifications and no qualifications, as long as we have dreams and a certain expertise, we will one day stand out and be seen by the world.
Not judging heroes by academic qualifications, not by age, and not by teachers, is the greatest positive value that Jiang Ping has passed on to the whole society, and she should become an inspirational example for young people, especially ordinary grassroots.
Second, there will be no longer discrimination in secondary education.
This open mathematics competition in Ali, which does not set thresholds and does not ask about academic qualifications, also provides a very good idea for the selection of talents for our government, enterprises and institutions. That is, the capable person is the king, the unveiling is the number, we are in the prosperous era, and we should be more eclectic and talented.
Jiang Ping's story just tells us that whether it is taking the college entrance examination route or being shunted to a vocational school by the high school entrance examination, it is impossible to take the test for life. Vocational schools can also produce talents. Especially for the HR of the enterprise, it should be a kind of touch.
Or because of Jiang Ping, some units have diluted the recognition of academic qualifications for students in ordinary universities or vocational schools, and then paid more attention to professional ability and job matching.
Objectively speaking, academic qualifications, qualifications and academic qualifications are also an invisible resource monopoly. The future market will be more important for enterprises, rather than those bells and whistles.
Third, interest can change fate.
Jiang Ping's preciousness lies in the fact that she is driven by complete interest to self-study "Partial Differential" in higher mathematics and higher-level, which cannot be tested at all in her secondary school stage. And it just so happened that she met his math teacher, Wang Yanqiu, a master of mathematics.
Without her love for mathematics, she would not have been able to rely on an English dictionary to delve into the heaven-like book "Partial Differentiation", except for eating and sleeping, her mind was almost entirely about mathematics. It is precisely because of talent + hard work that she has become a blockbuster today.
In the past, such geniuses could only be seen in European and American countries, but now our country also has them, isn't this a good thing for the country? Shouldn't it be better cared for? Why do you have to step on it and take a sip?
I am a liberal arts student, and of course my math level cannot be compared with Jiang Ping's. But I know that if you try to prove that others can't do it, you can't prove yourself, and in the end you will only expose your own cognitive superficiality.
As the People's Daily said, no matter what the results of the final are, it is valuable enough to feel the beauty of science in the pursuit of knowledge. Give the answer to time, follow your heart, and move on.
It is said that Jiang Ping has been "protected" by the local government, preventing her from reading the messy information on the Internet and concentrating on preparing for the exam, I think this should be the best protection for her.
In any case, she has used her talent and diligence to unravel the partial differentiation of fate, and we bless her!
To be a man, you have to learn from Wang Yanqiu, don't be too far away!
