Features: Zheng Yuanjie is hailed as the "King of Fairy Tales." The fairy tale characters he created—Pipi Lu, Luxi Xi, Shuke, and Beta—have become stars in the hearts of hundreds of millions of readers and have influenced the growth of generations. Zheng Yuanjie was the sole contributor to the monthly magazine The King of Fairy Tales, which was launched in 1985 and once had a circulation as high as millions of copies. Such a pure literary magazine supported solely by the works of one author for an extended period of 20 years is extremely rare both in Chinese and international literature and publishing. The total print run of Zheng Yuanjie's works has exceeded 55 million copies, demonstrating the immense popularity of his books. Zheng Yuanjie's fairy tales have a magical effect in nurturing children's imagination and integrity. The "Super Series Outside the Super Collection" of Zheng Yuanjie's works, published by Xueyuan Press, has a print run of over 3.5 million copies and has been hailed by the media as the "Aircraft Carrier of Chinese Children's Books."
