Zhou Yongjie, a quiet and shy boy from Kongjiang High School, Shanghai, took part in a recent International Computer Programming Contest for University Students in April, 2001. Zhou, with his two partners, came out as third winners, next to the teams from Qinghua University in Beijing and Shanghai Jiaotong University.

Zhou took up computer six years ago. He took his parents’ advice and entered his name for a computer class. When asked how to balance his school work and his after-school computer class. Zhou said that it was difficult to keep balanced between the two. Thanks to his hard work, he is always listed as one of the five best students in his class after exams. Zhou gets no introduction from his parents. Whenever he has problems he discusses with his classmates. Self-teaching is not an easy thing and many students have given up. But Zhou Yongjie is not discouraged. He also regards the computer as a tool for studying maths and other subjects. He also does some programming for running in his spare time.

Talking about the international contest, Zhou seemed to be a little excited. He said he and his two partners were supposed to solve eight problems within five hours, including the meal time. They divided the work among themselves and finally solved six problems with joint efforts. What impressed him most was that when a problem was solved, the team would be given a balloon as an encouragement. So once in a while, they would look around and wonder how other teams were going. Surprisingly, Zhou Yongjie hasn’t decided whether to work as a full-time computer programmer in the future. He prefers to do what he likes most and will regard computer as an instrument.
