Liu Zhengchun (March 10, 1935 - June 1, 2013) is a representative of the modern Jinling School. In 2009, he was named the intangible cultural heritage - the national successor of the Jinling School of Guqin.

When Mr. Liu Zhengchun was fifteen years old, he studied the qin under the tutelage of Zhou Kongming of the Fanchuan School, and later learned from the qin masters of the Zhucheng School, Wang Shengxiang, Xia Yifeng of the Jinling School, Liu Shaochun of the Guangling School, Cheng Wujia of the Mei'an School, and Zhao Yunqing of the Jinling School. The style of the piano is based on the Jinling School, and does not take the advantages of other families, forming an artistic style of elegant, vigorous and simple, and rhyme and sound.

On November 7, 2003, the art of guqin was selected into the second batch of "Masterpieces of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity" by UNESCO. He is listed as one of the fifty-two inheritors who have been confirmed in the "Guqin Art Declaration", a reference model for the declaration of representative works of human oral and intangible heritage provided by the Chinese Academy of Arts.

In 2009, Mr. Liu Zhengchun was rated as the representative inheritor of national intangible cultural heritage (Guqin and Jinling Qin School).

Mr. Liu Zhengchun insisted on teaching the guqin voluntarily all his life, cultivated more than 1,000 piano students at home and abroad, and made positive contributions to the dissemination and promotion of the art of guqin.

His main works include "Exploring the Origin of Qin Music", "Fifty Years of Jinling Qin Forum", "Wang Shengxiang's Guqin Artistic Career", "Qin Trivia", "Er Qin Wu Qin Score" and other works on Qin studies.
