Starting from the Chinese education from Fen Fen to the World Education

In the 20th century, under the actual conditions of insufficient investment in education and tight funding, the two foundations (basically popularized nine years of compulsory education, and basically eliminated the illiteracy of young people) were evaluated by UNESCO as the miracle of the world's "miracles of poor education" in the world.
