Q: Good Chinese writers

As a bookworm I'm running out of things to read here, and it's pretty hard to find any English books except classics where I am. My Chinese is competent enough to read so I was wondering if anyone knew of any famous Chinese writers? I know there was some guy who won the nobel prize not long ago but I forget his name.... If anyone's read sany good English language books written by Chinese authors that would be even better!!

The nobel laureate Chinese writer is Mo Yan. I haven't read any of his books, and I don't know any other Chinese writers either,

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
