Qiu Chengtong said that if China becomes a strong country in science and technology, it is necessary to master basic science, and mathematics is the basis of physics and all engineering theories.Where is it?

He said that any powerful modern country must be among the best in mathematics. The United Kingdom, France, the United States, Russia, Japan and other countries must have a very high level. Chinese mathematics has not reached this achievement.
