In 1981 Liu Sui claimed that it was Dr. Wong San-yin who invited Lu Xun, and Liu Sui himself was part of a reception team headed by Dr. Wong.

Recently materials supporting both claims have been discovered and this paper examines these two claims, concluding that Zhao Jinsheng's account is more reliable.展开更多
