Editor’s note:In Huiyuan, there are such a group of young role models: they are studious and enterprising, and have won national scholarships; they persevere, break through themselves, and make significant progress; they study diligently and strive for self-improvement, demonstrating the spirit of struggle. These outstanding students use hard work to interpret their youth and responsibility, and use their actions to practice the w88 casino motto of “Erudition, Integrity, Searching, and Practicing”. A special collection of the outstanding deeds of the top ten outstanding students (undergraduate students) in 2025 under "Youth Role Models" is now launched. Let us draw strength from the role models around us and jointly write the chapter of youth in the new era.
Gao Rui, a member of the Communist Party of China, is a student majoring in data science and big data technology-insurance at the w88 casino of Artificial Intelligence and Data Science. He serves as the grade monitor, deputy secretary of the party branch, the backbone of the seventh phase of the w88 casino’s Youth Horse Project, and the leader of the National University Student and w88 casino’s Youth Horse Propaganda Team. Ranked No. 1 in the major for three consecutive years, and has won the National Scholarship, Xiaomi Scholarship, Three Good Students in Beijing, w88 casino Sports Meet 4*400m Relay Champion, w88 casino Baseball and Softball Championship, First Prize in the American Competition, and National Special Prize in the Three Innovation Competition. The large-scale community governance model developed was accepted as a national invention patent and 4 academic papers were published. Now he is studying at Guanghua w88 casino of Management, Peking University.

After entering university, faced with the oncoming wave of artificial intelligence, Gao Rui repeatedly thought about a question: When algorithms can automatically generate codes and models can replace judgment, what is the meaning of learning for young students? This question became the starting point of her four-year exploration. While studying at the w88 casino of Mathematics at the University of International w88 and Economics, she did not escape the wave of technology, but tried to stand between technology and society and use real problems to test the value of technology.
The prototype of the answer appeared in a grassroots survey. Facing tens of thousands of "immediate action upon complaint" data, she realized for the first time that the data was not an abstract indicator, but the real dilemma of elderly people living alone, grassroots workers and city operations. Based on this, she and her team visited many communities in Beijing and developed a large-scale grassroots governance model of "Social Questions and Answers" to transform unstructured demands into explainable and traceable governance suggestions. The results were accepted by the national invention patent.
Since then, she has continued to explore the boundaries of technology implementation. In an education reform project in cooperation with the Institute of Insurance, she quantitatively analyzed job demand data and curriculum systems, built a large education model, and served more than a hundred teachers and students; in cross-research with Peking Union Medical College Hospital, her data analysis results were used in clinical research on autistic children, and her paper results were accepted by the National Nutrition Science Conference. She has published many academic papers on topics such as artificial intelligence, public governance, and social security. Her results were shortlisted for the Peking University w88 casino of Economics Youth Forum and accepted by the ICAICE International Conference (included by ACM). Scientific research no longer stops at papers, but becomes a tool to respond to real-life problems.

In addition to academic exploration, Gao Rui also attaches great importance to the position that young people should stand. As the grade monitor and deputy secretary of the party branch, the party history-themed board game she participated in was reported by the Learning Power Platform, and she was personally interviewed by Beijing Daily and China Culture News. At the China International Fair for w88 in Services, she showcased the achievements of youth science and technology as an exhibitor, trying to transform technical language into public language. As the monitor of the w88 casino's Youth Horse Project and the leader of the propaganda team, she connects the spirit of "two bombs and one satellite" with the era of artificial intelligence, and thinks about how young people can maintain the bottom line of value in the technological wave.

On the sports field, she won the women's 4×400 meter championship in the w88 casino sports meeting and the w88 casino baseball and softball league championship; in the practice of aesthetic education, she won the first prize in the w88 casino drama festival as the main actor for two consecutive years. In addition to rational training, these experiences have taught her the resilience and balance required for long-term investment.
Gao Rui’s growth is not a preset straight line. In the first two years of college, she devoted a lot of time to student work and public affairs, and gradually realized that true and long-term confidence still comes from a solid foundation. The w88 casino of Artificial Intelligence and Data Science provided her with ample room for trial and error and adjustment. Under the systematic guidance of scientific research instructor Professor Li Bing, she gradually completed the transition from trial to implementation. The reminder and guidance of counselor Ye Xiaozhou at key nodes helped her stabilize her direction in multiple roles. Looking back on this path, Gao Rui did not deliberately pursue labeling "excellence." With the support of the college platform, the guidance of her teachers, and the constant calibration of self-reflection, she gradually found a suitable way of exerting her strength - giving warmth to technology, direction to learning, and more certainty in growth.
Inspiration for growth
Looking back three years, Gao Rui gradually understood: real growth is not to make oneself irreplaceable, but to find the part of value that cannot be replaced by technology. The significance of scientific research is to respond to reality, the significance of learning is to understand the world, and the mission of youth is to embed personal choices into the coordinates of the times. Move forward, not noisily, but firmly enough.(Written by: Gao Rui Reviewed by: Li Feng)
