"The book fair is not only just by HK citizen, last year we were also attended by over 100,000 visitors from all over the world, so I think we also want to make use of this platform to promote Chinese martial arts. HK is really an international bridge."

"I want to be a novelist, because I believe that good literature can touch readers' hearts and bring them a lot of joy."
"These novels taught me what is the responsibility, you have to shoulder more responsibilities to protect people around you."
Professor Lin Baochu with Taiwan Normal University says the literature on display in Hong Kong not only provides readers with action, but also include lessons in morality.
"The martial arts literature has the essence of China's traditional culture, and teaches people how to behave as a good person."
