For the silver jubilee of the Asian Seismological Commission (ASC) in which China participated actively, this article briefly reviews the history of modern seismology in China since 1921. Seen in a century perspective, it is shown that earthquake prediction as an important scientific agenda in the seismological science in China follows the ‘technical hyper cycle’, albeit with a longer time scale, and now is the stage of ‘plateau of productivity’.
