"Eric is a genius. Every time I talk to him, I feel the inevitability of the day when I quit whatever job I have to join his start-up to change the world."
DPhil in Mathematics, University of Oxford
"Eric has demonstrated extraordinary technical talent and a distinguished track record of excellence. As a dedicated geek and developer, he has consistently excelled in prestigious domestic and international technology competitions, including the VEX Robotics Asian Open, the Yangtze River Delta Data Innovation Research Program, and the National Olympiad in Informatics (NOI). His achievements include numerous top-tier awards, most notably a National First Prize. Beyond competitive success, Eric has showcased robust full-stack development capabilities, sophisticated system architecture design thinking, and a keen insight into emerging technologies through a series of creative and demanding projects. These include a DNA Secondary Structure Electronic Schematic, high-stakes VEX Robotics competition builds, and a professional-grade Campus Live Streaming & Broadcasting System. His ability to bridge the gap between complex algorithms and practical engineering, combined with his disciplined and rigorous academic attitude, is truly impressive. I am confident that in his future university studies, he will continue to push boundaries and emerge as a prominent leader in the field of technology. (Translation)"
