Mathematician Hua's short story:

Hua likes pairing. Once traveling with Qian Sanqiang, Zhao Jiuzhang and others, Hua made the first couplet: "Three Strong, Korea, Zhao and Wei", which was difficult for everyone, because "Three Strong" implied Qian Sanqiang. Later, I came to China and made my second couplet: Nine Chapters of Pythagoras, which was praised by everyone.

Once, Xiaohua was called to see that shop (the one selling cotton).

A woman went to buy cotton. Hua is solving a math problem. How much does the lady say it costs to pack cotton? However, diligent Hua didn't hear it, so she answered the calculated answer. The woman screamed, "Why is it so expensive?" At this time, Hua didn't know anyone was coming to buy cotton, so he said the price. The woman bought a bag of cotton and left. When Hua was about to sit down and continue to calculate, he found that the toilet paper used to calculate the problem just now was taken away by the woman. Hua was in a hurry and tried to catch up.

Interesting stories of mathematician Hua when he was a child

Hua (1910-1982) is a native of Jintan County, Jiangsu Province. He was named Luo Geng because his father, Hua fellow villager, put him in a basket for good luck.

Hua was fond of playing since he was a child and liked to join in the fun, but his lessons were mediocre and sometimes he failed. He barely finished primary school and entered Jintan Middle School in his hometown, but he was still playful and his handwriting was crooked. He painted carefully when doing his math homework, but he painted like graffiti, so Hua was still disliked by teachers in junior high school and was often scratched by a ruler.

A teacher named Wang Weike in Jintan Middle School has a unique vision. He studied Hua's graffiti book and found that many altered places reflected the various methods he explored when solving problems. On one occasion, teacher Wang Weike told his students that Sun Tzu's Art of War Calculation had such a problem: "We don't know the number of things today, but the number of three is the second, the number of five is the third, and the number of seven is the second. What is the geometry of things? " "When everyone was silent, a student stood up. As you can see, flowers have always been looked down upon. At that time, he was only fourteen. Can you guess how much Hua said?
