Mr. Ma’s birthday attracted widespread attention and blessings from all walks of life. The 83-year-old famous playwright and "bashu ghost" Wei Minglun specially wrote a joint congratulation: "The old horse who knows the way, one hundred plus ten years, far exceeds the longevity of tea, and has been forgotten by God; the cattle are diligent in plowing, and the two nines are more diligent." Four hooves, even after the age of turtles, they still care about the world, and keep the citizens in mind." This couplet not only expresses blessings for Mr. Ma's longevity, but also praises his persistent pursuit and selfless dedication to literature.

His works such as "Qingjiang Zhuangge", "Ten Notes on Night Stories", and "Ma Shitu's Oracle Notes of Southwest Associated University" are deeply loved by readers. Today, Mr. Ma is still active in the literary world and continues to influence people with his wisdom and talent.

When he turned 110, Mr. Ma also wrote a poem to celebrate his birthday: "I am proud of myself at the age of 100, and my best friend came to my home to wish me a birthday.

I still remember the Master’s explanation of the root cause, the explanation of the text and the interpretation of the tortoise shell.

Nearly half a century has passed. It's really an old friendship! "Another color photo was taken at Ma's hometown.

On the occasion of Mr. Ma's 110th birthday, Wei Minglun regretted that he was "hospitalized due to a fall and fracture, so he could not listen to his father's teachings. Mr. Ma has a super long life, which confirms the philosophy of 'the benevolent live longer, and the wise live happily'!" He firmly believes that "Ma I will definitely break the Guinness World Longevity Record!"
