"Everyone is destined to die, and it may be heavier than Mount Tai or lighter than a feather." This is what Sima Qian said in "Book of Bao Ren'an". Its main achievement is the creation of "Historical Records"

Sima Qian was respected as the "Historical Sage" by later generations. His greatest contribution was the creation of China's first biographical general history, "Shi Ji" (originally known as "Tai Shi Gong Shu"). "Historical Records" records a history of more than 3,000 years from the Huangdi period in ancient legends to the first year of Yuanshou, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Sima Qian's historical masterpiece "Historical Records" was completed with his historical knowledge of "studying the relationship between heaven and man, understanding the changes of ancient and modern times, and becoming a family". It is the first of the "Twenty-Five Histories" and was praised by Lu Xun as "the swan song of the historian." "Li Sao". It is listed as the first of the first "Four Histories" and is called the "Twin Biscuits" of history together with "Zi Zhi Tong Jian". Therefore, Sima Qian was honored as Shi Qian and Shi Sheng by later generations. Together with Sima Guang, he is known as the "Two Sima in the History", and together with Sima Xiangru, he is known as the "Two Sima in the Western Han Dynasty".
