Wang Shenluan, Spring and Autumn of the Ten Kingdoms: "There was chaos in the Central Plains, and many officials and officials came to Fujian. Two years later, in 902 AD, Wang Shenluan sent his son Yan Bin as a gift to recruit talents, and he was endowed with wealth. For example, Li Xun, a regular servant of Tang You Province, Han Wo, assistant minister of the Imperial Ministry of War, and Zhongshu Club were all appointed by Hanlin. In and out of the celebrities have secretariat Xu Yin, Yuan Wailang, member of the right gleaning household department, Weng Chengzan who enlisted in Beijing, and Dr. Ni Shu from imperial academy.
Daoguang's "Jinjiang County Records Wang Shenluan": "There are many reasons in the Central Plains, and the bachelor always avoids fooling around. Shenluan sent his son Yan Bin as a gift to recruit talents. Such as Li Xun, Han Wo, Wang Di, Cui Daorong, Wang Biao, Xiahou Shu, Wang Zheng, Yang Chengxiu, Yang Zantu, Wang Yi, Gui Chuanyi, Zheng Yi and Jian Zheng. It all depends on it. "
The Five Dynasties was a transitional period from division to unification in China. At that time, Fujian was a remote place, and its culture was relatively backward compared with the Central Plains. Many scholars and celebrities learned from Quanzhou and created literature in Zhaoxian Academy, which made the excellent traditional culture of the Central Plains spread rapidly in Quanzhou and even Bamin, promoted the development of Fujian and Minnan cultures and occupied a place in the history of Chinese culture. According to statistics, the literati of Quanzhou Zhaoxian Academy created a large number of poems during this period, and more than 340 poems were included in The Whole Tang Poetry and other poetry collections. At this point, the trend of advocating literature has intensified in Quanzhou, and there has been an atmosphere of "luring children to promote learning", which has earned Quanzhou the reputation of "Zou Lu on the seashore". The formation of this ethos laid the foundation for Quanzhou's cultural heritage and produced a large number of talents. During the Five Dynasties, there were six Jinshi in Quanzhou. By the Song Dynasty, there were 862 Jinshi in Quanzhou (except 480 with special names), among which there were 4 Jinshi in Quanzhou from the Five Dynasties to the Song Dynasty. There are eight people in Dave's position. This phenomenon is extremely rare in the state capitals of the country. The succession of these talents is directly related to Wang Shenluan and his son's founding of the School of Recruiting Talents, which made Quanzhou a place to learn.
