Making his debut, he achieved a resounding success, with the first edition of his translated work "The Spy Catcher" selling nearly 100,000 copies. The winning momentum quickly gathered pace, and in the following years, Wang Maimei's translated works such as "Royal Sisters," "Midnight Thoughts," "Nancy Reagan's Autobiography," and "The Unpublished Works of Mark Twain" were published, each becoming bestsellers.
