The newspaper was originally run by E.Major. After the United States returned to China, it was taken over by Matt Mei and Matt Pei, but was still issued in the name of foreign investors. It was only in 1912 that the historical record was entered into the newspaper at a price of 120,000 yuan to become a newspaper run by the Chinese themselves. Take over the initial stage, the history is still matted as the manager of the mat, and soon changed to Zhang Zhuping as manager, since he served as general manager, and strive to operate so that the newspaper is getting better.
