In middle school, Wang began to learn computer programming, and gradually he found he was fascinated by it. In 1997, his program for the CASL assembly language compiler was selected to compete in the finals of the China College Student Computer Competition. Wang had the opportunity to meet Chinese former Vice Premier Zou Jiahua.

With Zou's help, Wang was given special permission to attend Jilin University as a postgraduate student. In 2008, after graduating with a master's degree, he continued on to study for his Ph.D.

To date, Wang has published at least 20 papers under the guidance of his academic tutor. In 2009, he was nominated as the "Chinese College Student of the Year", in 2000, he was recognized as an "Elite Self-Taught Worker" throughout the country, and when he was 22 years old, he became the country's youngest process engineer.

In October 2011, Wang was invited to the Doctoral Consortium of the International Conference on Biometrics held in Washington D.C., where he was recognized as one of the ten most promising doctoral students in the world.

In his tutor and classmates' eyes, Wang is a man of incredible perseverance. He can not move his body, but he can move his mind; he can not do simple things like others, but he is always positive, optimistic and outgoing. In order to improve himself, he also seizes every chance to communicate with professors and experts through the internet.

Recently, Wang's latest target is to find a job after graduation. He wants to be a university teacher. He has already sent his resume to several colleges. He hopes to one day have the capability to support himself and his family, and to help others like him to strive for a better life.
