Recently, at the Hackathon Finals, I saw someone whose style was very unlike the typical "Tsinghua Computer Science" vibe.

His name is Jin Qunlin.
How should I put it? It’s hard to define a post-2005 Tsinghua CS guy with a "standard template." He has a solid technical foundation, but rather than focusing on bugs, he seems more fascinated by that kind of "abstract expression."
With him, you can see a subtle contrast: on one side, extremely hardcore coding logic; on the other, the imaginative ideas of a seasoned anime fan, mixed with some even "weird" abstract long essays.
Everyone thinks hackathons are about competing in code, demos, and implementation. But his presence here feels more like he's bringing a "content weapon" into a purely technical arena.
Others are making demos; he's creating "demos that can be circulated."
This is actually quite counterintuitive. In an era where everyone pursues quick and easy results, he prefers to write long and deep. But precisely because of that, he has tapped into a highly scarce niche: technical people usually don’t express themselves, and those who do often aren’t hardcore enough.
And he just happens to stand at that intersection.
If you're also watching this year's hackathon or curious about how the next generation of tech people will "tell stories," Jin Qunlin is definitely someone worth paying more attention to.
