He went to the UK to study in London School of economics in 1919 and went to Oxford University in 1922. In 1922, he took part in a delegation sent by the Beiyang government to Britain, the United States and Japan. After returning to China, he was determined to engage in industrial construction, but he failed to do so because he was in the period of warlord scuffle at that time. In 1928, Qian Changzhao served as secretary of the Ministry of foreign affairs of the national government, in 1929 as secretary of the national government, in 1930 as Deputy General of the Ministry of education, and in 1932 as Deputy Secretary General of the national defense design Commission.

During the Anti Japanese War, he cooperated with Chairman Weng Wenhao, absorbed and trained a large number of construction talents, set up a number of industrial and mining enterprises in the rear, and organized forces to explore various resources, making positive contributions to developing wartime production and supporting the Anti Japanese war. After the victory of the Anti Japanese War, Comrade Qian Changzhao was appointed chairman of the resources committee. He and vice chairman Sun Yueqi jointly planned to carry out economic construction, develop resources and enhance national strength. But the KMT authorities deliberately launched a civil war, which made their plan impossible. In the autumn of 1948, he went abroad to Britain, France and Belgium to investigate industrial production.

Qian Shixiang, the son of Qian Changzhao, recalls that this year marks the 100th anniversary of his father's birth and the 20th consecutive year of Shen Xingyuan scholarship. The scholarship is the first private scholarship established by Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, and was renamed Qian Changzhao and Shen Xingyuan scholarship in 1999. During the Anti Japanese War, his father Qian Changzhao lived in the humble Office of Niujiaotuo Resources Committee of Shangqing temple in Chongqing, commanding, managing and operating the state-owned industrial enterprises (Institutions) in the rear area. In order to avoid the Japanese bombing, my mother Shen Xingyuan and I lived in a stone bungalow in the suburb of Gele Mountain. After liberation, I learned from my father's "three evils and five evils" confession that the money for building the house was borrowed from Mr. Sun Yueqi. It was not until 1945 that we paid off uncle sun's loan. It also made me understand why my mother was so frugal in those years. At the east end of the bungalow is a living room (with dining room). On the east wall is an oil painting that Mr. Xu Beihong copied for his grandfather (it's a pity that my mother and I didn't bring it to Hong Kong when we fled from Taipei in 1949). On both sides is a couplet that my father described the scenery in the mountains: "the scenery of the mountains is blurred, the dynasty is changing, and the East is surging for a few days". It's impossible to find out who wrote it. I remember Mr. Cao Yu (I call him) When he came to my humble abode in the mountains and wrote a memorial book for me, it was changed to "blurred mountain scenery needs to change, turbulent Oriental means the sun is clear". It was 1943, and the Pacific War had begun, which means that the day of the fall of the rampant little Japan is not far away. There is a fireplace on the north wall, but it's just the ears of the deaf. It never smokes. There is a piece of marble hanging above the fireplace. It was given by Mr. Miao Yuntai, a well-known person in Yunnan and vice chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese people's Political Consultative Conference after his return to the mainland from the United States in the 1970s. According to cloud, it is the Heirloom's property. It is a natural landscape painting with distant mountains, white clouds, boats and running water. It is still hanging in my bedroom. both parents are hospitable, and father often takes guests to stay in the mountains. Whenever Chinese and foreign guests come, mother will show her cooking skills and unique dishes. I remember that when President Roosevelt's adviser latymore and the world-famous dam design expert Dr. Savannah came to Geleshan, their mother squeezed the tomatoes planted by her own hands with gauze to make a drink. This is also a rare fresh drink in the enemy's rear capital! In addition, her Wenwu meat (beef and pork stew) is often praised. Performing the march of the volunteers for the guests is a reserved program arranged by my mother for me, and asking the guests to write inscriptions for me as a memento is my homework. when I first arrived at Geleshan, my mother didn't let me go to school, but taught me in person. To tell you the truth, I'm really afraid to eat her "board" (when I'm going to make a mistake, I'm bound to wring my ass with my hand). In order to let me have the opportunity and interest to go out, it is required to collect two different plant specimens every day. So he ran around with a stick, and the youngsters who poked around in the bushes appeared on the hillsides of Gele Mountain every day. After a while, it was reduced to
