"If you say that I am blind, then I will prove it."
These are the words of a girl who has achieved excellent results in a mathematics competition but has been questioned, and in August, the secondary school girl named Jiang Ping won the 12th place in the world in a mathematics competition held by Alibaba.
But after her qualifying results came out, she was questioned by some people, questioning her seriousness and her strength is not as good as her results.
In the doubts of these people, this matter continued to ferment, and Jiang Ping also said strongly: "You doubt whether I am blind, and I have nothing to hide, then I will prove it."
So what kind of results did Jiang Ping make in this competition, and can her strength be proven?
The contestants said that it was not very difficult.
In Alibaba's global mathematics competition, although most of the contestants are students from various universities, there are also some working personnel, and there are also some friends around the students who are helping them master.
But when the results were announced, there was no big noise, with the winners of the winners, and Alibaba also prepared an iphone12pro max mobile phone reward for the winners, but after the winners were released, it exploded for a while.
It is possible that many people see this result for the first time, and sure enough, some audiences have said that Alibaba has made a mistake, "You look at this report card, why is there a secondary school student on the list?"
However, this secondary school student is Jiang Ping, and in 2018, Jiang Ping participated in the mathematics competition held by Alibaba and won the fifth place.
And Jiang Ping, as a secondary school student at that time, was able to achieve such excellent results on a global scale, and it was precisely because of this excellent result that in this mathematics competition, a bunch of people were speculating about whether she was blind.
And afterwards, Jiang Ping also posted a message on her Weibo: "You doubt whether I am blind, and I have nothing to hide, then I will prove it."
This sentence has attracted the attention of the academic community, and it has also set off greater doubts on the Internet, and many speculations and discussions have been derived on the Internet, questioning that there are only four reasons why Jiang Ping can achieve excellent results.
1. The first three times were her experience in participating in the Alibaba Mathematics Competition, and the results she obtained were all in the top five.
2. It is she who is brilliant in mathematics and a mathematical genius.
3. In the first two Alibaba Mathematics Competitions, professionals at the doctoral level of mathematics were not allowed to participate, so I think that her strength is not comparable to that of mathematics majors.
4. In this competition, the top three are not in China, and several of them are mathematics scholars and other professionals, and there may be cases where the list of winners is wrong.
But when Jiang Ping's questioning in this math competition was intermittent, Jiang Ping suddenly posted a very brief status on her Weibo, writing: "Ali, I am already in the competition, and I chose 7 questions."
This brief state also shows that Jiang Ping has strength, since she chose to participate, then she should show her real skills, instead of questioning the people who participated in the math competition for no reason, and even during this period, the questioned ones have already been changed from the title of the financial or small media to the title of the 30 contestants.
In the midst of this, it is also evident from the side that this matter has fermented and experienced a change in the direction of the wind, and in between, it has also aroused the attention and concern of many people.
Who is questioning Jiang Ping.
In July, the finals of Alibaba's global math competition ended in just six hours, and Jiang Ping said that she had completed seven questions, and she did not answer one of the six questions.
Four days later, 39 contestants asked Alibaba officials to disclose Jiang Ping's qualifier papers, and they asked for disclosure to prove that there was really a problem with questioning Jiang Ping, and one of the contestants was a student at Tsinghua University.
A leader at Tsinghua University's Qiuzhen Academy also issued a notice saying, "Students from our university who participated in unapproved math competitions before August 10 will be punished accordingly." ”
Tsinghua University did not comment on this matter, and whether the said math competition was related to Jiang Ping, a teacher at Tsinghua University said in an interview with the media: "I can't say that there is no, and I can't say that there is."
It is impossible to guess what is going on for a while, since a student from Tsinghua University participated in the competition, it is related to Jiang Ping's previous incident.
However, it was announced that the content of Jiang Ping's qualifier papers would be made public, which undoubtedly made people pay more attention to this matter, and the media reported on the matter, and called it "suspected of cheating in the Alibaba competition, and the girls of the secondary school were involved in the incident".
The popularity of the media also continued to soar, and speculation about Jiang Ping began to be set off on the Internet, some netizens said: "This matter is quite big, I don't know what Alibaba will do, but I still hope to have an accurate result."
Some netizens said: "The cheating turmoil will not come to this point, and some people question what Ali did in advertising, but even so, at this point, they will not give up and not deal with it."
In the end, the turmoil was not full of suspense, and Ali will announce the final results and obtain the certificate on August 15, which can be regarded as the last way to deal with the incident.
American competitions and math competitions.
In the mainland, there are many competitions in mathematics, and the following are some of the most famous mathematics competitions, the content of these competitions is through the competition between schools, and the content is the content of some university textbooks.
Among them, mathematical modeling is a unique programming competition, and this competition is also a competitive competition, so people from different backgrounds are encouraged to participate, but in this mathematical modeling competition, there is a secondary school student Jiang Ping.
It can be seen that it is not because of academic qualifications to participate in this mathematical modeling competition, but for students, mathematical modeling is also a kind of ability to exercise their logical thinking, and it can also allow people to solve problems with different thinking in a limited time.
Therefore, the mathematical modeling competition is also a very fair form of competition, but there are always some people who use some bad information, and these people or some hackers create some bad voices to destroy its good reputation, but these people are also spurned by everyone.
Let's talk about the American competition, the American competition is a kind of math level competition held by the United States, but this competition is not limited to American schools, and there are not only American competitors.
Whether it is an international school or an overseas Chinese school, as long as you are interested, you can participate, but this is also for students, so only interested contestants can participate.
Meisai is a more serious mathematics competition, each multiple-choice question has the content of mathematical knowledge, and mathematical modeling is an application of mathematics, which is more stringent.
However, most people will compare the more serious competitions such as Meisai and mathematical modeling with the math competition held by Ali this time, so they will feel that mathematical modeling is a kind of competition that is difficult for strong people.
But the above point is actually not true, because mathematical modeling is a very fair mathematical competition, anyone can participate, and Alibaba, as a large international entertainment company, will consider the problem of many people participating.
So it's not too difficult, and participating in math competitions is a kind of entertainment, and everyone participates for fun.
It's the same with math competitions and sports competitions, and it's not like you can't participate in competitions because you don't get good grades.
epilogue
Regarding the incident of Jiang Ping being questioned, it may be because her grades and academic qualifications do not match, so there are doubts, but I have to say that this is a good thing in itself, everything has both positive and negative sides, but the academic community in the mainland is also very responsible.
For students to participate in mathematics competitions, there are certain guidelines to regulate students' behavior, and it is also responsible for the students themselves, and for this matter, we can't take it out of context at will, and this is also people's privacy, we should not comment too much on this, let alone make personal attacks at will.
