The three most powerful families in modern times: one has been passed down for thousands of years, one has no prodigal sons for eight generations, and one is very low-key

China has been a country with ancestor worship since ancient times, but the inheritance of Chinese families does not come from blood ties, but from education. In modern times, there are three most powerful families: one has been passed down for thousands of years, one has no prodigal sons for eight generations, and one is extremely hidden.

First: Qian Family

The Qian family began to rise in the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty. Its founder was Qian Liu, the founder of Wuyue Kingdom, one of the Ten Kingdoms at that time. Under Qian Liu's rule, the people of Liangzhe did not know how to use weapons. Compared with the Central Plains where warlords fought and fought, it could be said to be a paradise. Qian Liu was also respected by the people as the "Sea Dragon King". Because he surrendered unconditionally to the Northern Song Dynasty regime, his descendants were treated favorably by the Song Dynasty government.

In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the Qian family also produced many great literati such as Qian Qianyi, Qian Zeng, Qian Dazhao, and Qian Daxin. In modern times, the Qian family has produced a surge of talents. The three well-known Qians in the scientific community: Qian Xuesen, the "Father of Chinese Missiles", Qian Weichang, the "Father of Modern Mechanics in China", and Qian Sanqiang, the "Father of Chinese Atomic Bombs", all came from this family. In addition, the famous historian Qian Mu and the writer Qian Zhongshu all came from this family.
