From 1955 he wrote fourteen wuxia novels — summarised in the couplet '飛雪連天射白鹿，笑書神俠倚碧鴛' — that became the most widely read Chinese fiction of the twentieth century. In 1959 he co-founded the newspaper Ming Pao, writing editorials for decades. His works have been adapted into film and television hundreds of times and translated worldwide.
