Among them, he nominated his younger brother ShenJianshi to recommend Wang Jingzhi, a graduate from Fu Jen Catholic University in Peking, as hisstudent. They had a teacher-student relationship for over a year. Later, Wang Jingzhi crossed TaiwanStrait in 1949 and taught in universities for nearly forty years, cultivating countless students andenjoying high prestige in the literary and academic circles.
