Mathematician's story, about 100-200 words, not too many words, more than a few stories


Hua Luogeng was fond of playing when he was a child, and he also liked to join in the fun, but his lessons were mediocre, and sometimes he failed. He barely finished primary school and went to Jintan middle school in his hometown, but he was still fond of playing. His handwriting was crooked. When he did his math homework, he drew carefully, but it was like graffiti
Wang Weike, a teacher of Jintan middle school, has a unique insight. Once, Wang Weike told his students the "Sunzi Suan Jing" and put forward such a question: "today, there are things that I don't know their number. There are only two of the three, three of the five, and two of the seven. How about things?" while everyone was silent, a student stood up. When everyone looked at it, he turned out to be Hua Luogeng, who had always been looked down upon, At that time, he was only 14 years old. Guess what Hua Luogeng said? 23. His answer surprised the teacher and got praise from the teacher. From then on, he fell in love with mathematics
Later, Hua Luogeng was out of school because of his poor family
After his unremitting efforts, his paper "the reason why the solution of quintic equation of Su Jiaju's algebra can't be established" was discovered by Professor Xiong Qinglai, director of the Department of mathematics of Tsinghua University, and he was invited to Tsinghua University; Hua Luogeng was employed as a university teacher, which is the first time in the history of Tsinghua University
