As one saying goes, where there are Chinese people, there are kung fu legend.

Jin Yong, also known as Louis Cha Leung-yung, was regarded as one of the greatest kung fu fiction writers in China. And for many people, Cha built a magical kung fu kingdom that they could escape into every now and then.

But this kingdom is falling apart now, because Cha passed away on Oct 30, at the age of 94.

Cha wrote all of his 15 wuxia novels between 1955 and 1972. While the values and tastes of readers have changed greatly in recent years, his books continue to attract people. His works have been made into movies and TV series so many times in Hong Kong, Taiwan and the Chinese mainland.

The characters of his books never fail to move both men and women. For example, in The Return of the Condor Heroes, the young hero Yang Guo waits for his lover Xiaolongnu faithfully for 16 years. believing that she is still alive, even though she has jumped from a mountain into a ravine(悬崖)

Cha's books bring readers joy, and Cha himself has equal fun creating them. "Writing gives me space for imagination, just like a director," Cha told China Daily.

However, Cha's real aim in writing novels is to show traditional Chinese values and qualities. "Kung fu novels must show fairness and righteousness(正义). The good fight the bad. Traditional values are shown through the characters and their stories, not by telling readers," he said.
