It is worth mentioning that the vast majority of professors, scholars and Internet celebrities are basically supporting Jiang Ping, believing that she has extraordinary mathematical talent.
Unexpectedly, a professor from Peking University stood up and expressed a different view from his peers.
The professor's name is Yuan Xinyi, born in 1981 in Macheng, Hubei Province, studied mathematics at Peking University as an undergraduate, and after graduation, he went to the United States to obtain a doctorate in mathematics from Columbia University, and has been engaged in mathematics research since 2020 until 2020, when he became a professor at the International Mathematical Research Center of Peking University.
It can be seen that Professor Yuan is a master in the field of mathematics research, and he is absolutely qualified to comment on Jiang Ping's participation in this Alibaba Mathematics Competition.
What is Professor Yuen's point of view?
First of all, Professor Yuan believes that the preliminary questions of the Alibaba Mathematics Competition are very difficult, and that they need to master high school and undergraduate mathematics to be able to complete the answers, and it is almost impossible for a junior high school student to study for two years and finish six or seven years of study for others.
Of course, Professor Yuan didn't say it to death, he thought that there were no more than 10 such junior high school students in China, that is, there was room for geniuses.
Secondly, Professor Yuan pointed out that the board book of the mathematical formulas copied by Jiang Ping was full of errors, and there were about 13 errors.
If the board book was indeed written by Jiang Ping, it means that her mathematical genius was infinitely exaggerated, and if it was written by someone else, and Jiang Ping did not find any errors in it when posing for the photo, this is also very suspicious.
Finally, Professor Yuan also pointed out other suspicious aspects, such as the pronunciation of Xie Huimin's "Mathematical Analysis" as "Mathematical Aspects", and the fact that secondary school students cannot spend a huge amount of time learning the time-consuming and laborious LaTeX professional software, etc.
After some detailed deduction, Professor Yuan also proposed an analysis of the possibility of cheating in the preliminary round. He believes that Jiang Ping's math teacher, Wang Runqiu, may be behind this, and that Wang Yunqiu's doing so can increase the popularity of his tutorial class and increase the success rate of his application for a PhD in mathematics.
Of course, Professor Yuan did not completely deny the possibility that Jiang Ping was a genius.
In the face of all kinds of doubts, Professor Yuan encouraged Jiang Ping to stand up and prove her innocence, or explain her thinking when doing the questions live, or ask three or four mathematics professors to give her a separate interview, and he even invited Jiang Ping to visit Peking University.
It can be seen that Professor Yuan's article analyzes and summarizes the previous doubts raised by netizens, and does not provide any new views, but the language organization is more rigorous, and his identity as a mathematics professor is easier to be trusted.
As for Professor Yuan's method of proving his innocence, Jiang Ping's side will most likely not respond.
If she has real talent and real learning, of course, it is the best, but if she is a packaged genius, then she will lose everything, including the qualification to be escorted to a prestigious school, the loss is too great.
What's more, there are still so many Internet celebrities standing behind Jiang Ping who support her, if Jiang Ping's myth is debunked in public, do you want the faces of these public figures? Therefore, unless someone with more weight comes out to speak, the myth about the genius girl must continue to be promoted.
