Zhang Boju:
Zhang Boju (1898 (1898)-1982), whose real name is Qijia, whose real name is Cong Bi, whose alias is You Chunzhu and Mr. Hao Hao, is from Xiangcheng, Henan, and the biggest collector in China. Mr. Zhang Boju is a cultural genius. He is a connoisseur, painter, poet and researcher of Beijing Opera.
Mr. Zhang Boju devoted his whole life to collecting ancient cultural relics. At the age of 30, he began to collect ancient China paintings and calligraphy. At first, he was just a hobby. He bought the oldest ink handed down from China-Ping Fu Tie, the oldest painting in the Western Jin Dynasty, You Chuntu by Sui Zhanzi Qian, Tiantai Tie by Li Bai, a great poet in the Tang Dynasty, and so on. His collection of top paintings and calligraphy in China can be found in his book Painting and Calligraphy from Pen.
Influenced by the traditional culture of China, Mr. Zhang Boju has read countless books since he was a child. A solid literary foundation has created his versatile cultural background. Because of his extraordinary talent, he used all his spare time to write a large number of ancient poems, phonology and opera works.
In order to inherit and develop China's classical art, Zhang Boju founded Beijing Guqin Research Association, Beijing Opera Basic Art Research Association, China Calligraphy Research Association and Poetry Research Association in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China. Until his death, he was still obsessed with the preparatory work of China Rhyme Club.
At that time, it was estimated that the national treasure donated by Zhang Boju was as high as 1 100 million yuan. However, with the progress of human civilization, not only this amount, but also the compassion and noble deeds of his great scholar and bodhisattva are insurmountable monuments in the cultural and artistic history of China.

Yuan (1890- 193 1 year), whose real name is Bao Cen, also known as "Bao Shou, Bao Gong" and "Han Yun", is also a native of Guimiao, a native of Xiangcheng, Henan Province, and a famous Kunqu opera ticket, and is known as one of the four sons of the Republic of China. Yuan Shikai's second son was born to his third aunt Jin (Korean). 193 1 died in Tianjin. Big brother yuan. Yuan Kewen, the second son of Yuan Shikai, 1890 was born in Seoul, North Korea in July. He has a gift for reading since he was a child, and his memory is not comparable to that of ordinary people. Therefore, Yuan Kewen is the favorite of Yuan Shikai 17 sons and 15 daughters. Yuan was born in such a noble family and received a special education that ordinary people can't reach, which is an important condition for him to be omnipotent and meticulous in poetry couplets, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, cultural relics appreciation and many other aspects.
Unlike his father, Yuan is not interested in political power. His manners are chic and romantic, and he is very keen on the traditional culture of China. When he was young, Yuan starred in Black Powder and Wen Chou, a Peking Opera, and became a famous opera fan, becoming close friends with famous artists in Liyuan.
Yuan's temperament is weak, his writing style is good, and he has more contacts with scholars such as Fang Dishan and Huang Ernan. But he was not good at managing money, spending money like water, and then he was down and out.
He died of sudden illness in 193 1 year at the age of 4 1 year, leaving behind a book, Diary of Leng Yun. A newspaper commented: "Everyone knows the cold cloud, poetry and wine are romantic, and they are versatile."
