Zhang Ailing was born on September 30, 1920, in a declining aristocratic residence in the Shanghai Public Concession. Zhang Ailing's grandmother was the eldest daughter of Li Hongzhang, and her grandfather was a famous courtier at the end of the Qing Dynasty, which was a very prominent family lineage at that time. She followed her parents to Shanghai and Tianjin at an early age, and she was extremely talented in literature, starting a creative career in elementary school, writing novels that were circulated among her classmates, and of course, she later became a charismatic writer. Her novels are not only more elegant, but also in-depth depictions of marginalized little people that no other writer in the 1940s could match. It is such an artist, and her past life is also very artistic.

She was not discovered until a week after her death, on September 8, 1995, the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, a traditional Chinese holiday, at Zhang Ailing's apartment in Westwood, Los Angeles, when police officers at the Los Angeles Police Department opened the door to a room in an apartment on Rochester Street.

What appeared before them was a bleak picture they had never seen before: a small, thin, chinese-American old woman in a red cheongsam, lying peacefully on a rather exquisite blanket in the middle of the room, next to an unfolded stack of manuscript paper and an unclosed pen. She said goodbye to the world in this unique way, calmly went to another world, and did not forget to take a pen and paper to another world to continue her creation, which is called the world's strange woman is also!
