Wang Yuechen, a three-year-old girl from Yanji, the capital of the Yanbian Korean autonomous prefecture in Jilin province, recently solved a 3x3x3 Rubik's Cube in 19 seconds, setting a new WRCAC world record for the youngest person to do so in under 20 seconds.

Then her two other teachers, Tong Shouren and Qi Guixin, tailored a training plan. Tong worked on refining her solving logic and optimizing her turning rhythm, while Qi corrected her hand movements and improved her speed. Under their coordinated guidance, Wang quickly broke four national records for the youngest age to solve various cubes.

At the beginning of this year, Wang started to learn from world record holder Du Yusheng to tackle more challenging puzzles. Faced with complex formulas and strict requirements, she quickly mastered them with her exceptional memory and ultimately broke the world record.
