On February 24, 2016 (January 17, 2016 in the lunar calendar), Lin Jiawen, a talented high school student in history, committed suicide. Lin Jiawen, a historian genius, is a high school student who is preparing for the college entrance examination while publishing hundreds of thousands of words of books with academic weight. He is Lin Jiawen, a senior high school student in Xi'an Middle School who has already published two monographs. There was sudden bad news yesterday. Lin Jiawen committed suicide. The departure of this talented boy made people sigh. What happened to him? "Lin Jiawen passed away, I'm sorry. In the early morning of February 24, 2016, some netizens posted on Weibo saying that Lin Jiawen, an 18-year-old senior high school student at Xi'an Middle School who had just published a monograph on history at the end of last year, passed away. Last night, a reporter from Huashang Daily confirmed that Lin Jiawen jumped to suicide due to depression. At the end of 2015, Lin Jiawen published a historical monograph "Worrying and Happiness for the World: Fan Zhongyan and the New Deal in Qingli", which was reported by Huashang Daily. The book uses narrative and exposition to show the historical development and changes of the Northern Song Dynasty. Previously, Lin Jiawen also published the book "The Taoist Rule of China: The Political Practice of Taoist Thought and the Rapid Rise of the Han Empire." Lin Jiawen was praised by Professor Li Yumin, a famous historian and a great historian of the Song Dynasty."His level is not up to by ordinary doctors, and even if he has a doctor, he cannot bring him to his current level." Lin Jiawen, a historian who became connected to hundreds of forums, once wrote an article revealing his mental journey from being interested in history to embarking on the path of historical research. In the article, Lin Jiawen said that he was born into an intellectual family in Xi'an. His mother was a primary school teacher, and his father worked in a law school. When he was in primary school, the trend of reading and telling history on TV programs was high. When his family watched programs such as "Lecture Hall of Hundreds", he also watched them. For a year or two, he used to get up early every day to watch "Lecture Hall of Hundreds". When he was in primary school, he had already begun to read books such as "Zizhi Tongjian","Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals" and "Annals of the Three Kingdoms". Influenced by relevant books, Lin Jiawen began to study ethnic history in middle school and began to teach himself Xixia script. Through the Internet, he communicated and discussed with his predecessors active in the history world on Weibo, and also searched for their works. In addition, he also taught himself the knowledge of philology, bibliography, and academic norms, and began to read a large number of first-hand documents on Song history, such as "Sushui Ji Wen","Xiangshanye Lu","Mozhuang Manlu", etc. "Fortunately, my parents were willing to spend money to let me buy books at will. They almost never set limits for me. As long as I wanted to buy books, they would agree, which greatly satisfied my need to purchase historical documents." Lin Jiawen, a genius in history, said that his teacher Lin had discussed the problem of suicide. Lin Jiawen's classmate Zhang Wen (pseudonym) told the Huashang Daily reporter that as a student in the key class, Lin Jiawen had good grades in all subjects and was "surprisingly good" in history. Zhang Wen said that the history teacher and Lin Jiawen are both teachers and friends. Sometimes, when class is approaching, they will set aside a few minutes for Lin Jiawen to come on stage and talk for a while. "But what he said was too academic and not much could be understood by the students. Lin Jiawen's junior high school and high school classmate Wang Li (pseudonym) said in a memorial article he wrote that he took sick leave all afternoon on February 23 and did not return to classroom until after 5 p.m. "Lin Jiawen saw me and said happily: 'Ah, when did you come back? Are you okay?' I smiled and said: 'Thank you for remembering, Teacher Lin. It's okay.' After saying that, he waved his hand and left. Today (24th) morning, he did not come to school and learned that he had passed away at noon. I never expected that a moment of pleasantries would turn into a farewell." "Many people don't like him, don't like his arrogance, don't like his lack of cleaning, and don't like his unsocial nature. But these are exactly the personality of this person." Wang Li said in the article,"When he doesn't clean, I will get angry at him, and he will bow his head like a child being scolded and sweep the floor with a broom. Wang Li mentioned in the article that Lin Jiawen had discussed the issue of suicide with him. "When he sits in the classroom, he often has the feeling that it is extremely cold from high places. He often looked around the class and sighed: You can only learn, but you can't study. This sentence sounds harsh, but we must admit that his height is beyond our reach. It is better to live silently than to die without singing. Lin Jiawen left just like this. As his classmate for six years, I will always miss him." He once communicated with reporters and had more opinions than his peers. Hearing the news of Lin Jiawen's death, the reporter of Huashang Daily was shocked! This is a very self-determined talented boy who knows what he wants and practices it! On December 16 last year, at the publication symposium held by Xi'an Middle School for his new book,"Worry and Happiness for the World: Fan Zhongyan and the New Deal of Qingli", Lin Jiawen responded with ease whether he was responding to media questions or the praise or criticism of his academic works by historical experts present, especially in terms of criticism, and did not show the slightest difference. At that time, the reporter had some exchanges with Lin Jiawen. Compared with his peers, he was obviously mature, talkative, modest, polite, and very enthusiastic about history, especially Western Xia history and Song history. He told reporters that he was an only child and his parents were both teachers and they were very supportive of him. At that time, the reporter did not feel the pressure on him. However, when talking about the college entrance examination and the future of life, Lin Jiawen slowed down, and a trace of uneasiness flashed in his eyes. At that time, he had ambitious goals-Peking University in China and the Central Department of Eurasian Studies at Indiana University in the United States.
