metadata.value: Since the 1980s, Russian and Soviet literature has been met with a cold response from Chinese
  readers. Although there are some historical reasons for this situation, it is quite unfortunate.
  In the 1950s and 1960s, Russian literature was irrationally regarded as the best literature in the
  whole world by most Chinese readers, a distorted an incorrect perception. These phenomena
  have largely caused the indifference of Chinese readers today. Over the past 100 years, Chinese
  modern literature consciously accepted the influence of Russian literature, and the images of
  Russian literature changed according to different situations in the course of development in
  China. The positive and negative consequences of this influence depend on the various concepts and borrowing methods by modern Chinese writers. In the 1980s with the beginning of
  the reforms and openness, the horizons of the Chinese readers broadened, and they started
  to fully realize what foreign literature was. At that time Russian and Soviet literature was just
  a small part of foreign literature and could not dominate the landscape. The relationship between Chinese and Russian literature became independent in many ways. Today’s studies of
  Russian-Chinese literary relations should continue to examine this phenomenon, find cultural
  factors that support it and look for unappreciated spiritual sources in Russian and Soviet literature. Additionally, the shared problems that modern Russian and Chinese literature face
  should be investigated.
