The New Deal in the late Qing Dynasty, also known as the Gengzi New Deal. The important content of the "New Deal" on culture and education is to abolish the imperial examination, run schools and send overseas students.

The "New Deal" in the late Qing Dynasty was a measure taken by the Qing government to maintain its feudal rule after the Boxer Rebellion. Therefore, it cannot be an effective reform. However, under the condition of the upsurge of democratic revolution at that time, some of these measures objectively played a certain role in spreading culture and democratic revolutionary ideas and developing industry and commerce. However, some measures aroused the people's resistance, expanded the contradiction between the Qing government and the Han bureaucrats, and objectively promoted the arrival of the 1911 Revolution.
