Qian Chenfei's Xiling Seal Engraving Society was founded in 1904 with the aim of "preserving gold and stone, studying seal studies, and also painting and calligraphy". It is the oldest, most accomplished, and most influential folk art group in the field of studying gold and stone seal carving both domestically and internationally. It is known as the "Number One Society in the World" and is also one of the oldest surviving literary societies in China. It is reported that this social celebration series of activities is the largest comprehensive event of the Xiling Seal Engravers Society in the past decade or even since the 100th anniversary of the festival. It mainly includes five conferences, five exhibitions, and three seminars. The "Five Meetings" include celebration meetings, member meetings, president meetings, and two council meetings. Among them, the Social Celebration Conference aims to gather Indian people from all over the world and guests from all over the world to participate in the grand event. The members' meeting, president's meeting, and council meeting focus on the social affairs work of Xiling Seal Engraving Society. This year, the Xiling Seal Engraving Society will elect a new council and a new leadership team. The "Five Exhibitions" include three exhibitions, namely the Xiling Seal Engravers' Achievement Report Exhibition, Member Works Exhibition, and Society Collection Donation Jinghua Exhibition (2019-2023) held at the Zhejiang Exhibition Hall, the 2023 Joint Exhibition of Seal Engravers at home and abroad held at the Hangzhou Art Academy, and the "Four Famous Seal Engravers in Congcuitang" held at the Juntao Art Academy in Zhejiang Art Museum.

This is also a reflection of the Xiling Seal Engraving Society's active role as a leader in seal cutting art and its responsibility to inherit and popularize the excellent traditional Chinese culture. It is worth mentioning that in conjunction with various activities, Xiling Seal Engraving Society has also published 11 collections of works and other related books.
