那人不是数学家，任正非被忽悠了，也可以说任正非忽悠中国老百姓，一下维基：
In 1981, Arıkan received his Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering from the California Institute of Technology. He finished his M.S. and Ph.D. studies in Electrical Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, in 1982 and 1985 respectively.

Arıkan served as an assistant professor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign before returning to Turkey. He joined Bilkent University as a faculty member in 1987. In 2008 Arıkan invented polar codes，在土耳其这个Bilkent 大学任教是发明了这个码

电子工程的博士数学基础都很好，也谈不上忽悠吧

回复@赵明：数学喜当爹 http://blog.sciencenet.cn/blog-669170-1181483.html

那个工作的核心就是数学，任老总的话没毛病。

回复@鲁学星：老谢是准备看华为和任总的笑话

回复@赵明：这个笑话他是看不到的 ，他没有掌握任总说话的逻辑，任总的逻辑和一般人不一样。
