Taiwan's influence is not limited to pop culture, either. In a list of the 100 best-selling literary works of 1999, compiled by a leading publishing industry magazine, 20 were written by Taiwan-based author Liu Yung, whose works claimed seven of the top ten spots. Not surprisingly, Liu was proclaimed a "super best-selling author" in mainland China.
