A Published Essay on the Commercial Press of China

In honor of the founder of Fudan University, Priest Xiangbo Ma, I wrote an essay named《浅论近代商务印书馆的经营之道》, which investigated the history of The Commercial Press of China and its relation to the university's founder.

The essay is collected and published in a book (ISBN: 9787309138153) named 《博学杯·2016—2017：海上的记忆与寻踪》, via Fudan University Press.

This research is guided (also partially funded, maybe) by a great Chinese historian, Prof. my dad. He is very proud and happy with this work.
