On this day, 130 years ago, on July 30, 1895 (June 9, 1895 in the lunar calendar), Qian Mu, a master of Chinese studies, was born. Qian Mu (July 30, 1895-August 30, 1990), formerly known as En, also known as Binsi, was born in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province, a historian, Confucian scholar, and educator. Qian Mu and Qian Zhongshu were of the same family and different branches. Qian Zhongshu was his nephew, and Qian Mu also called Qian Jibo (Qian Zhongshu's father) uncle. Qian Weichang is the eldest son of Qian Mu's eldest brother Qian Zhi and Qian Mu's nephew. Qian Mu entered a private school at nine years old. After dropping out of school in 1912, he taught himself and taught in primary and secondary schools. In 1930, he became famous for publishing the Chronicle of Liu Xiangxin and His Son. He was recommended by Gu Jiegang and hired as a lecturer in Chinese at Yanjing University. Later, he served successively as Yanjing University, Peking University, Tsinghua University, Peking Normal University, Southwest Associated University, Wuhan University, West China University, and Jiangnan University. Qian Mu lived in Peking for eight years and taught at prestigious schools such as Beijing, Tsinghua University, Yanjing, and Beijing Normal University, where he learned from friends in the academic world. With the rise of the Anti-Japanese War, he taught at universities in Southwest Associated University, Wuhan, West China, Qilu, and Sichuan.

In the autumn of 1949, Qian Mu agreed to his friend to become dean of the Asian School of Culture and Business in Hong Kong. In 1950, Qian Mu founded New Asia College in Hong Kong, which enabled exiled students to continue singing. The school was successful and was respected by the Hong Kong government. In 1955, he awarded an honorary doctorate degree to the University of Hong Kong. In 1960, he was invited to give lectures at Yale University in the United States and was awarded an honorary doctorate in literature. In 1965, he officially stepped down as president of New Asia College and applied to teach at the University of Malaya. Qian Yisheng devoted his career to education. Five generations of disciples gathered together, including Yu Yingshi, Yan Genwang and others. In October 1967, at the invitation of President Chiang Kai-shek, Qian Mu returned to Taiwan from Hong Kong as a returning scholar. He built a Sushu Tower in Shuangxi, outside Shilin District, Taipei City. In 1968, he was elected as an academician of the Academia Sinica. In her later years, she devoted herself to lectures and writing. Although her eyesight was weakening, she still put forward new ideas at any time. Mrs. Lai read them, compiled them and published them, humbly calling them "Blind Words in Late Learning." On June 1, 1990, Mr. Qian Mu was dissatisfied with the accusation that former President of the Republic of China Chen Shui-bian, who was a legislator at the time, and Taipei City Councilor Zhou Buren accused him of occupying government buildings. At the age of 96, he resolutely moved out of Su Shu Lou and died on August 30 of the same year in his apartment on Hangzhou South Road. China's academic community respects him as a "master of a generation." Some scholars even call him the last scholar-official and master of Chinese studies in China.
