Features: When we study Chinese fiction, we should use our own perspective to determine what constitutes fiction and what does not. Whether it is classified as classics, history, philosophy, or collections, as long as we consider it fiction, we should treat it as such. Therefore, the author believes that the first step is to find fiction materials within the classics, history, philosophy, and collections. The second step is to combine these materials with fiction from the Jin, Tang dynasties and later, fiction from the Song, Yuan dynasties and later, fiction from the Qing dynasty and later, and then study them together.
