In an ordinary classroom at Peking University, a young professor is reading a book. His handwriting is neat, and every step of logic is like a fine mechanical gear, precise and unmistakable. His name is Wei Dongyi, but on the Internet, people prefer to call him "Wei Shen".
Wei Dongyi's fame began with the glory of his youth. In high school, he won the International Mathematical Olympiad two years in a row in a unique and concise way. This method, which came to be known as the "Wei Method", was shockingly simple, yet so subtle that no one else could do it.
After graduating from Peking University, Wei Dongyi refused Harvard's invitation and chose to stay in his homeland and further his studies until he became a professor. His career seems to be smooth, but his private life is rather low-key. Although the annual salary is as high as 600,000 yuan, he has no car or house, and his monthly living expenses are only 300 yuan. Such a way of life inevitably seems simple and even absurd to outsiders.
"Wei Shen is 32 years old, and he still has no car or house, which is really miserable. Such discussions were once lively on the Internet. But when someone with a heart dug up his payroll, the storm suddenly took a turn. With an annual salary of 600,000 yuan, this is definitely a high-income group in a big city like Beijing, even if it is not the top. The voices that had laughed at him were suddenly overwhelmed, envious and embarrassed.
But Wei Dongyi didn't care about these outside voices. His life was simple, with extremely low material needs. For him, the beauty and profundity of mathematics itself is far more appealing than the material world. He loves exploring math problems on the blackboard and paper, and that's where he really plays.
His classes are always packed with students from all backgrounds. Some are top students in the mathematics department, trying to follow Wei Shen's train of thought, while others are curious people in other majors, just wanting to see how this legendary "Wei Shen" lectures. Although Wei Dongyi's explanations were unfathomable and many people couldn't keep up with his train of thought, they were still impressed by the professor's talent.
Although Wei Dongyi's life is simple, his spiritual world is rich and broad. He likes to spend his evenings alone in his office immersed in mathematical problems, and the complex formulas and theories are as beautiful as poetry to him. He also often lost track of time until the first rays of the morning sun shone through the window.
In the academic world, Wei Dongyi has won the respect of his peers for his unique research results. His papers are frequently published in top academic journals, and each one has sparked extensive discussion. His research has not only promoted the development of the field of mathematics, but also opened up the power and beauty of mathematics to more people.
Despite the various evaluations from the outside world, Wei Dongyi has never wavered. He knows that the real value is not how much material wealth he has, but in being able to pursue the career he loves and discover the unknown truth, which is the ideal life in his heart. In his opinion, going his own way and letting others say it is the greatest respect for himself and the best attitude towards life.
Wei Dongyi's story has spread on the Internet, and his image of detachment from the world and his focus on academics has inspired many young people. They began to think that real success is not a label given by the outside world, but their own understanding and pursuit of life. And this professor, who hides the extraordinary in the ordinary, proves it with his own life.
