Jin Yong, the famous Chinese novelist, wrote 15 books about martial arts. He is considered to be one of the three greatest wuxia writers and Hong Kong’s most famous writer. Jin was the best-selling Chinese author of all time, with over 300 million copies of his works sold worldwide. Jin was born in Zhejiang Province, the second of seven children. Even as a boy, Jin enjoyed writing. He was admitted to the Department of Foreign Languages at the Central University of Political Affairs in Chongqing, but he left to study international law at Soochow University. Jin was planning to have a career in the foreign service, but in 1955, he began writing his first martial arts novel, The Book and the Sword. In 1957, while still working on wuxia novels, Jin got a job writing movie scripts at Great Wall Movie Enterprises Ltd. and Phoenix Film Company. In 1959, Jin co-founded the Hong Kong newspaper Ming Pao with a high school classmate. Many of Jin’s most famous wuxia novels appeared in the newspaper, including The Smiling, Proud Wanderer and The Deer and the Cauldron. Jin Yong fused martial arts, fantasy, history and romance into must-read novels. Many years after he had stopped writing novels, Jin earned his Doctor of Philosophy from Cambridge University in 2010.
