Souvenir medals commemorating renowned Chinese translator Fu Lei and his wife, Zhu Meifu, have been launched in Fu’s childhood home of Zhoupu in Pudong.

The medals, in four elements including silver and bronze, show the pair’s heads close together, a pose based on a sculpture by artist Sheng Yang.

Lu Dongsheng, Party chief of Zhoupu, said Zhu was also responsible for Fu’s success. She was not only his wife, but his lifelong assistant who sorted and copied all of his work.

Sheng said he hoped to reflect Fu’s good character and the couple’s closeness. The work had been highly regarded by Fu’s children and was used on the cover of “Fu Lei’s Family Letters,” a book of Fu’s letters to family and friends.
