Thank you for your information, may be i fail to make the question clear.
The question can be understand like this, if someone mentions China, which person will come
firstly into your mind?










gato -

Mao Zedong probably, or maybe Yao Ming nowadays.

bruce lee's scream 'wahhh chhaaaaa' came to my mind. he is widely known in america, eastern and
western europe, middle east and china. just a few years ago a sculpture was elected in romania to
celebrate his fame. 30 years after his death, his movies was still broadcasted on the television
to memorize his achievement in hong kong. no chinese at his time can achieve his undisputed fame.

another influential chinese must be jinyong, a writer of martial art novels that were read and
heard by almost all chinese. no novelist in chinese history has reached this enormous readership
as he did in the past decades.

In Romania? Are you sure? As far as I know they erected Bruce Lee's statue in Mostar (Bosnia and
Herzegovina). Here: http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/english...ent_475139.htm

It really chocked me.Although he is very famous in China, mostly by his novel.
Western people really like him? And what kind of facts can impore it?
