In 1921, the first national congress of the Communist Party of China was held in Shanghai. The translator of the revolutionary kindling - Communist Manifesto was Chen Wangdao, a professor of Chinese literature in Fudan University. Later, during his 27 years as president of Fudan University, Chen Wangdao not only dealt with complicated school affairs but also led the teachers to revise Ci Hai- the Chinese Dictionary.
