In addition, he made considerable research and contributions in military science, engineering, mechanics, geometry and optics, and most of the scientific and technological achievements in the pre-Qin period depended on Mozi. The existing book Mozi consists of two parts: Mozi's own works and his disciples' accounts of Mozi's remarks, which were lost in the Song Dynasty. By the time of compiling Sikuquanshu in Qing Dynasty, there were only 53 articles left.

3. Mozi (the year of birth and death is unknown), named Di (dí), was born in the Song Dynasty in the late Eastern Zhou Dynasty and the early Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Mozi, a descendant of Mu Yi, an aristocrat in the Song Dynasty, worked as a doctor in the Song Dynasty. He was the founder of Mohism and a famous thinker, educator, scientist and strategist in the Warring States Period.

Mozi is the only philosopher born as a farmer in the history of China. Mozi founded Mohism, which had a great influence in the pre-Qin period, and was called "one of the best" with Confucianism. He put forward the viewpoints of "universal love", "non-aggression", "Shang Xian", "Shang Tong", "ambition", "ghost", "death", "unhappiness" and "frugality". Take universal love as the core, frugality and sage as the fulcrum. Mozi founded a set of scientific theories with outstanding achievements in geometry, physics and optics during the Warring States Period. At that time, a hundred schools of thought contended and were called "non-Confucian Jimo". After Mozi's death, Mohism was divided into three schools: Xiangri Chi Mo, Xiangfumo and Denglingmo. According to the historical data of Mozi's life, disciples collected his quotations and completed Mozi, a book handed down from ancient times.
