As a senior corporate management executive engaged in a high-tech export business, she started writing web novels in 2019, with motivation triggered by the real challenges she faces in her industry. Her first web novel Era of Wave Breaking focuses on the rise of Chinese manufacturing.

The second, Way to the North, tells a story about the development of the Beidou 3 navigation satellite system.

Her winning work this time, Insider and Outsider Border, sheds light on people's lives from the 1980s to the early 2000s, reflecting the dramatically rapid changes in Shenzhen, Guangdong province.

Residing in the city for more than 10 years, she saw it as "a city of miracles and epic chapters".

"I have been hoping for a long time to write about Shenzhen. I have been on overseas business trips a lot. Compared with other cities staying unchanged for decades, Shenzhen is changing with each passing day," says the author.

The metropolis transformed from a small fishing village to a cosmopolitan city in just several decades.
