Brief introduction of Zhao huanting's personality

Zhao Huanting's martial arts novels began with 1923 "The Complete Biography of the Chivalrous Man". As soon as this book was born, it is said that when he traveled all over the country in his early years, he paid attention to collecting anecdotes about chivalrous people and drew a lot of material from the notes of his predecessors. Although he is not familiar with martial arts, he usually observes carefully, pays attention to every move of busking and fighting, and often visits ancient temples on the spot, so his writing is vivid and realistic. He usually writes a manuscript, which is like a bad student, but he rarely smears it. Editors welcome his manuscript. His attitude is also excellent, and he always responds to the requirements of newspapers and magazines in the north and south, even small newspapers. Later, because those small newspapers often didn't live long, they stopped publishing. This half-story is not popular with other publications and has to be shelved. There are as many stories as 10. Moreover, some of them were in arrears with the payment of the manuscript and ignored the repeated recourse, which made him lose a lot. I think it's better to burn the inkstone than to waste my energy. After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Zhao Huanting basically withdrew from the literary world, specializing in calligraphy and selling words for a living, so no new martial arts works were circulated in the world.

As a martial arts novel writer, Zhao Huanting's fame may not last as long as that of Xiao Sheng, but at that time, when the martial arts of the Southern School prevailed, he propped up the situation of the Northern School alone, and then the "Five Masters of the Northern School" appeared. Therefore, although his reputation has not been handed down, his influence has long remained in the Wulin.
