Early life

Hans Müller was born in Düsseldorf-Golzheim, Germany as the only child of Henriette Müller née Ballin (a niece of the shipping magnate Albert Ballin, died 1949) and Simon Fred Müller (died 1952). His father owned an electrical goods factory in Düsseldorf. Because he was Jewish, Simon Fred Müller was held captive in the Theresienstadt concentration camp from 1942 to 1945.Шаблон:Citation needed

Because it was difficult for a Jewish student to go to a German university at the time, Müller went to Switzerland to do so. Hans Müller went to study medicine at the University of Basel. At the University of Basel, he met a Chinese student named Chiang Zhaoxian, who told Müller about China, its culture, history and ongoing events.[1]
