An outstanding thinker, philosopher and essayist at the end of the Warring States period. Han Feizi is a master of legalism, combining Shang Yang's "Fa", Shen Buhai's "Shu" and Shen Dao's "Teacher". Han Feizi integrated Laozi's dialectics with Xunzi's simple materialism, and he was also a master of a hundred schools of thought contending in the pre-Qin period, which gathered the essence of Confucianism, Taoism, Mohism and Legalism. Han Fei is the son of Hanwang, a student of Xunzi and a classmate of Reese. He is the author of Han Feizi, with 55 articles,100000 words. It is unique in the prose of pre-Qin philosophers, which shows that Han Fei attaches great importance to materialism and utilitarianism and actively advocates the theory of absolute monarchy, with the aim of providing autocratic monarchs with the hegemonic thought of Qiang Bing, a rich country.
Han Feizi deeply loved his motherland, South Korea, but his political views were not taken seriously by the king of South Korea, and Ying Zheng, king of Qin, sent troops to attack South Korea in order to get Han Feizi. Li Si was jealous of Han Fei's talent and killed Han Fei in the State of Qin. However, Han Fei's legalist thought was reused by Ying Zheng, the king of Qin, to help the state of Qin enrich Qiang Bing and finally unify the six countries. Han Feizi's thought is profound and advanced, which has a far-reaching influence on later generations. He is the most admired ancient thinker in China by Chairman Mao. Chairman Mao once said: "The politicians in ancient China were basically legalists."
