Ye Yonglie (Template:Zh, 30 August 1940[1] – 15 May 2020[2]) was a Chinese writer of science fiction and biographies. A few of his stories have been translated into English in The Road to Science Fiction series and elsewhere. During the Anti-Spiritual Pollution Campaign his works were attacked and a story he wrote in 1985 was suppressed for suggesting AIDS had entered the country.[3] As a biographer he wrote on early figures in the People's Republic of China. He also visited North Korea, and wrote a book The Real DPRK (真实的朝鲜) which was banned in that country and China.[4][5]
Ye wrote a short story named Ba Jin's Dream, which imagines an effort to develop Ba Jin's proposal for a museum of the Cultural Revolution.[6]Template:Rp In the fictional piece, Ye portrays himself as a secretary of the Shanghai Museum Society which establishes a committee to plan the museum.[6]Template:Rp After a Kafkaesque effort to obtain the necessary government approvals, the short story ends with the committee laughing bitterly over its failed dream.[6]Template:Rp
