Class 3, Grade 11, is known throughout the school as the “good-for-nothing dumping ground”: last in the rankings, worst-behaved, and avoided by every teacher.
At the start of the new term, homeroom teacher Mr. Zhou is forced to take over this hopeless class. He also brings in a special student: Su Nian, a girl with high-functioning autism.
The class mocks her as an “idiot,” until she silently writes on the blackboard the error rates for every question on their last exam, accurate to two decimal places.
Everyone falls silent.
Unable to stand the “increase in entropy” caused by the class's chaos, Su Nian starts using data to “reform” her good-for-nothing classmates so she can study math in peace.
She uses algorithms to analyze everyone's gaps in knowledge, makes them practice problems through gamified tasks, and even writes a “Classroom Relationship Optimization Plan” to put an end to their infighting.
The students go from resisting to embracing it, from sabotaging one another to working together, and from dead last to first in their grade.
And among this group of “abnormal” classmates, Su Nian herself learns to smile for the first time, to hug, and even to swear.
This is a heartwarming, satisfying story about an “unusual genius” and a group of “good-for-nothings” everyone else has given up on, saving each other.
