Ni Kuang Early life

Ni Kuang was born in Shanghai in 1935. His real name is Ni Cong and his courtesy name is Yiming. His ancestral home is Zhenhai, Ningbo, Zhejiang, China. He fled to Hong Kong in 1957. Ni Kuang is known as one of the “Four Great Talents in Hong Kong” and is also the elder brother of the female writer Yi Shu.

Ni Kuang moved to the United States in the 1990s, and then returned to Hong Kong in 2007. In 2012, he won the Lifetime Achievement Award at the 31st Hong Kong Film Awards. Ni Kuang’s most famous pen name is “Wesley”, and there are also Shaweng, Yuechuan, Wei Li, Yiqi, Hongxin, Weilong, and so on.

In 1955, Ni Kuang was smuggled to Hong Kong and began his writing career. He published his first novel, Buried Alive. After that, he continued to write and write 10,000 characters a day, creating the popular Wesleyan series.

Ni Kuang is regarded as an “anti-communist writer”, showing that he does not believe in “one country, two systems”. In an interview in recent years, he was also pessimistic about the future of Hong Kong.

In 1983, Ni Kuang serialized the novel “Chasing the Dragon” in the newspaper, in which he “prophesied” that a large city in the East would be destroyed: “To destroy a large city, it may not necessarily be natural disasters, but also man-made disasters. Man-made disasters are not necessarily wars. A few words, the ignorant actions of a few people, can make a big city completely dead. Without destroying the buildings of the big city, without killing any of its inhabitants, even on the surface, the big city is the same as before. , but as long as the original virtues of the city disappear, it can be destroyed and killed.”

Ni Kuang has written a large number of works over the years, including martial arts, detectives, supernatural and other themes, among which “Wesleyan Series” and “Original Zhenxia Series” are the most well-known. “Wesley” has been serialized in newspapers since 1963 and has been adapted into films, television and radio plays, including 156 novels. He also hosted the talk show “Undefended Tonight” with Huang Fei and Cai Lan.

Ni Kuang has seldom attended public events in recent years, and he still attended the sharing session of the Hong Kong Book Fair in the past two years to meet book fans.

 

Anti-communism and Ni Kuang

Ni Kuang was also known for his “anti-communism” throughout his life. He once said that “I don’t believe in “one country, two systems” at all, but “the Communist Party has the final say.” In 2019, Ni Kuang was interviewed by the Hong Kong and Taiwan program “Sounding Talk” and recalled that Xu Jiatun, the then director of the Hong Kong branch of Xinhua News Agency before the handover, had planned to invite him to go for a walk in the Mainland. Ni Kuang said that he could organize a group called “Anti-Communist Writers Returning to China”, and then there is no text.

Ni Kuang, Jin Yong, Huang Fei, and Cai Lan are also known as the “Four Talents in Hong Kong”, and now the first three have wandered into immortality. Ni Kuang said in the interview that in fact, only Jin Yong can be called a talented person. He said that he has a very light view of life. He was free and unfettered after coming to Hong Kong. He has been satisfied for three and five years. Now it has been more than 60 years. It’s “the luck that came back”.

When it comes to Hong Kong’s prospects, Ni Kuang said that he is not qualified to persuade young people, because he thinks too negatively. He believes that the situation in Hong Kong is “irreversible”, and Hong Kong’s role in the mainland has become less and less.

Shi Yongtai: Hong Kong people will always miss him

Shi Yongtai, the former chairman of the Bar Association who visited him at the time, said in an interview with the media that Ni Kuang’s works were well-known and he accompanied Hong Kong people in the 1970s and 1980s to grow up together. Shi Yongtai said that when he visited Ni Kuang back then, the other party was inconvenient to move, but he was sober-minded, quick-thinking, humorous, and sharp.
