<b></b>On October 14, an airmail flew over the Strait and sent this newspaper from Taiwan. The e-mail was sent by Mr. Yuan Futing, the secretary of Yan Xishan, and presented to this newspaper a copy of the "Fa Xian First Discovered the American Examination" published in March 1958 by Da Jian San (Zi Su Min), a native of Yangcheng, Shanxi.

Former Fu Ting, an elderly native of Hejin, Shanxi, followed Yan Xishan for 25 years, devoted himself to the study of modern history and culture in his later years, and made outstanding contributions to cross-strait cultural exchanges. On the title page of the book, Mr. Yuan Futing wrote: "This person wrote this book with more than ten years of hard work in Taiwan, patriotic feelings, lonely force into a book, and died. Please bookmark for research".

In the preface, the Chinese monk Fa Xian discovered the American continent in 412, and Zhang Binglin (号太炎), a native of Yuhang, Zhejiang Province, wrote the Fa Xian discovery of the Western Hemisphere, corrected it, and included it in the Taiyan Anthology. Senior monk Faxian, commonly known as Gong, a native of Wuyang, Pingyang (now a native of Wuxiang, Changzhi), was a Shami at the age of 3, vowed to seek Buddhism, and once crossed the quicksand from Chang'an to the west, traveled through more than 30 countries, returned from the southern sea, brought back a large number of scriptures, and translated into more than one million words. The "Records of the Buddha's Kingdom" written by him, and some people say that they are called "Fa Xian" and "Fa Xian Xing Biography", are all the same thing. There are 14 sangha blues in the book, tens of thousands of monks, a huge momentum, compared with Zheng He's western ocean, footprints as far as the Americas, known as China's largest explorer.

Although Zhang Taiyan had the first exposition of the Western Hemisphere by Fa Xian, many details were not examined, so DaJian San immersed himself in study for more than ten years and finally became this book.
