AB - There are no less than ten different versions of Mr Louis Cha Leung-yung’s biography. However, very few of them touched upon or gave a detailed account of his activities at his late teens, the time when he graduated from Quzhou High School and then entered the Central Political Institute. A revised edition of Fu Guoyong’s The Biography of Jin Yong came out in 2013, with reference to Cheng Zhengjia’s memoirs, supplemented some details about the activities of Louis Cha. To add further information, this article uses two newly discovered archives, i.e. a student registration form and a letter from Louis Cha to the Ministry of Education. In the past, there have been different accounts of Louis Cha’s birth date. These two archives show that Louis Cha was 19 years old in September 1942. Moreover, his adventure, activities and educational aspirations during that difficult period are also revealed. In order to provide a clearer understanding of Louis Cha’s experience at that time, the examinations he took and his subsequent study life, references are made to two pieces of articles written by two fellow students of his time. Some information from dated newspapers are also retrieved to clarify the admission offers made to him by different tertiary institutions.
