First, the origin of surnames
The origin of Qi surname is very simple, and there is only one source:
From the compound surname Guan Shi, it was changed to Guan Shi. According to Search Surname, "You are just like an official". Qi, the ancient word "Qi", is also called "(ancient sound Qí qi, present sound jοJi)".
An official, that is, an official, is an official name. In ancient times, officials were in charge of ceremonies (at that time, ceremonies were the same as ceremonies). Ritual is a ceremony when a teenager 15 years old to 15 years old inserts a ceremony into his hair, as a symbol of the formal transfer from teenager to adult. So the ancients attached great importance to this ceremony and official position.
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, this post station was set up in all countries. The official surname is the descendant of this official who appeared to commemorate his ancestors, and is called the official surname. Later, in the movement of changing surnames after Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne in the early Ming Dynasty, the compound surname was changed to the single surname.
Ancestor of surname: Guan (??). During the Spring and Autumn Period, every vassal state was related to Qi's official position, so there was more than one ancestor of Guan Qi family. 19800, officials resumed their surnames, which later evolved into single surnames in the early Ming Dynasty.

Regarding the history of the Qi family, there was a monument in the tomb of the ancestor of the Qi family in Beiligou, Laiwu, Shandong Province, which recorded that Hongwu moved to Lion from Linyi in the second year and lived alone. This may be the origin of the single surname Qi. At present, the ancestral home of most Qi surnames in China is Laiwu. The Qijia family in Yangzhuang, Laiwu, Shandong Province also has an epitaph, which reads: The ancestors were uncles at the beginning, and they avoided chaos at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and took their sons from Jianghuai to settle in Yangzhuang, Laiwu, Shandong Province.
