Nanchang 16 -year -old teenager was accepted by Tsinghua University!Growing up with grandparents and grandma stalls

Mathematics is a familiar and mysterious discipline. The "Genius Basic Law", which is currently being broadcast recently, is a rare domestic TV series that tells mathematics. The broadcast attracted more and more people. In real life, Nanchang Youth Liu Xihong was admitted to Tsinghua University and was selected as one of the most influential mathematicians in the world at the age of 16 -Qiu Chengtong set up the "Qiu Chengtong Mathematical Science Leading Talent Training Program" at Tsinghua University. The road of scientific research. Compared with other children, Liu Xihong's childhood experienced all kinds of bumps. Since his childhood, he was raised by his grandparents who set up a stall on the street, but the difficulties of life toured his spirit of not being afraid of challenging. From an early age, he grew up with him with his love for mathematics and rushed to a better future.

"I just worked a little bit more than others."

Tsinghua University's "Qiu Chengtong Mathematics Science Leading Talent Training Plan" is a plan launched by the Ministry of Education. It has been recruited from excellent middle school students from 2021 to the world. The recruitment target is a global middle school student who has excellent performance, math potential and specialties, and is determined to engage in scientific research for life.

Liu Xihong participated in the National Mathematical League in the second half of last year. The top 60 outstanding players in the event could enter the national training team and obtained the qualification to protect Tsinghua University of Peking University. Liu Xihong was qualified for the first prize of the Jiangxi Division to be shortlisted for the "Qiu Chengtong Mathematics Science Leading Talent Training Program" in Tsinghua University. She then went to Beijing to participate in written tests and interviews. (Mathematics Leading Program) Admission Notice. Since then, he will study at the "Qiu Chengtong Ban" at Tsinghua University for 8 years. Carry out cutting -edge research and participation in application projects.

Due to the influence of the new crown epidemic, Liu Xihong, who could not go to Beijing on time, had already started the online class of Tsinghua University at home. Study at 12 o'clock. At 4 pm on August 5th, Liu Xihong, who had just finished Tsinghua University's online class, was interviewed by reporters. He revealed that the mood of getting a notice from Tsinghua University for the first time was not as excited as everyone imagined. At the same time, he calmly stated that he would maintain his ordinary mentality even if he was not accepted by Tsinghua University. "After all, this matter is very lucky."

At the age of 16, it was the age of the first year of high school, but Liu Xihong entered Tsinghua University to study. He did not agree that it was called "Xueba" or "genius teenagers". In the process, luck is better, and he hit this opportunity. "He explained that he may be able to achieve such a result slightly more than others, but many people have blurred the concept of effort." I said His efforts are effective efforts, not that kind of ineffective effort. " For example, many people like to repeatedly brush some questions and test papers. "This kind of approach is very boring. I think it is enough to do some questions. I think of these topics. "

On the road to exploring mathematics, Liu Xihong said that his idol was a mathematician Qiu Chengtong. "I slowly learned about the" Qiu Chengtong Class "of Tsinghua University, only to know what kind of scientist he is." Now he is selected as "Qiu Chengtong's Leading Talent Training Plan", and he will start to settle in a new one under the leadership of the admiration scientists. After studying the journey, Liu Xihong said that at this time, he was getting farther and farther away from his idol. "Because after entering this class, he knew how big the gap between himself and him, and I would try to shorten the distance between it."

Look at the photos with Grandpa to remember the past

When I was 3 years old, I wanted to read Tsinghua as a scientist

Liu Xihong's home is located on Yuanming North Road, the old town of Nanchang. The dense old buildings are a little dilapidated and messy. The engineering vehicle downstairs is under construction. In 2006, the year when Liu Xihong was born, his father was found to have cancer. He died of illness a year later. Since he was a child, he had been dependent on his grandparents since he was a child. Grandpa and grandma made a car, often pushed to the area of ​​Wanshou Palace, selling small products such as socks. With the help of Yuanming North Road community, their family has become a low guarantee household for rescue. In such a difficult environment, Liu Xihong grew into a "excellent child of someone else's family" that many parents envy.

During the interview, the reporter learned that Liu Xihong's grandfather only read the third grade of elementary school. Grandma graduated from high school. His father graduated from Jiujiang University of Science and Technology. He also liked mathematics when he was in high school. Grandma told reporters that when Liu Xihong read the kindergarten, he began to teach him an addition and subtraction of less than 10. At the age of four or five, he began to carry out an addition and subtraction of less than 100. In the third grade of elementary school, grandma could not teach Liu Xihong's mathematics. "From the first grade to the fifth grade, the math exercises were issued, and he finished it within a week. A grade mathematics book, such as the third grade to do the fourth grade of mathematics. " Liu Xihong likes to do the topic very much. If he does not finish his homework after class, he will not eat. Grandpa and grandma often set up a very late stall. He always stayed alone at home, or was taken by his grandmother to read a book by himself. In the third and fourth grades of elementary school, Liu Xihong also practiced calligraphy, and the writing brush was particularly beautiful. Grandma has carefully preserved the words he wrote so far, and regretted that "if it can be practiced until now, how good it is. "During the fifth grade of elementary school, Liu Xihong's talent was discovered, dug by a famous school, and directly jumped into junior high school. Grandma clearly remembers that when Liu Xihong was 3 years old, she asked him, what school he wanted to take? His answer was "I want to be Tsinghua, I want to be a scientist." Speaking of which, grandma gave a thumbs up to reporters, and now her wish was realized, and she was proud of her grandson.

The reporter saw in Liu Xihong's home that his bed was covered with honorary certificates and medals. These things usually helped him collect and organize, and he didn't seem to care much about it. Instead, when he took out a bunch of childhood photos, he and Grandpa leaned on his head to talk about the past, showing a happy smile on his face.

Love learning and love life and do not want to be "Wei Shen"

Speaking of the "mathematics genius" in life, people are most familiar with Wei Dongyi, who is only Mathematics in the eyes. Liu Xihong said that he knew the "God of Mathematics", but he didn't want to be a person like him. "I want to have my own career plan, and then there is a plan for life. I don't want to mix these two things together."

For ordinary people, mathematics research is extremely esoteric. What is the feeling of immersing in the world of mathematics? Liu Xihong replied that learning was very happy. "As long as you can learn new things, it is not boring. On the day after day, the same thing every day, fresh things will make me feel very interesting." He said that such learning is not only learning mathematics, " Including the learning and life of various subjects, learning all kinds of knowledge I don't know. " During the interview, grandma has always been guilty. Because of the economic situation at home, Liu Xihong could not go out to play on holidays like other children from an early age to see the outside world. Liu Xihong also told reporters that he was unwilling to stay at home in his life. In the future, he wants to try all kinds of fresh life.

At present, I am at the Tsinghuanet class at home every day, and the training of the "Qiu Chengtong Mathematics Science Leading Talent Training Program" has begun. Liu Xihong admits that it is not very adaptable and it feels difficult. However, such a long -term high -intensity study did not make him conflict. "If you don't learn enough, then continue to learn." He said that when facing the challenge, he should accept the challenge, "not afraid of encountering difficulties." When asked in a class where the mathematical tip, would there be a danger of being eliminated in the future? Liu Xihong told reporters firmly that "this is not the case."
