An opening ceremony will be held on January 2nd at 2:00 PM, featuring a live performance by the "Tsai Yuan-chin Puppet Troupe" for the audience. As per tradition, no separate invitations will be issued; residents and people from all walks of life are welcome to visit. The exhibition runs from January 2nd to March 28th.

The Ruiyou Literature Museum pointed out that Li Taishan is not only a successful entrepreneur but also a key promoter of hometown cohesion and literary revival among Kinmen expatriates. Through his rich academic and professional experience and writings, this exhibition interprets the meaning of "Deep Affection for Wudao, Long-Flowing Literary Heart."

Li Taishan was born in 1954 in Xiaojing Village, Kinmen. After graduating from Kinmen High School, he went to Taiwan to study editing and journalism at the World College of Journalism. Forty years later, having achieved success in his career, he returned to Shih Hsin University for a master's degree in Chinese Literature. He has loved literature all his life and cares deeply about his hometown of Kinmen, especially emphasizing the inheritance of local education and culture, as well as religious arts. Since 2012, he has served as the Chairman of the Taipei Kinmen Association and founded the Taiwan Federation of Kinmen Associations, serving as the first President. He also established scholarships for descendants of Kinmen associations at Kinmen University and supported the relaunch of "Kinmen Literature" in 2014, which has continued for ten years.

Li Taishan also serves as the Chairman of the Taiwan Guanguan Culture Association and founded the "Guanguan Culture News" to promote the spirit of loyalty and righteousness. In 2014, he gathered Kinmen writers in Taiwan to establish the "Taipei City Kinmen Overseas Arts and Literature Society" and founded the Guyue Publishing House. In 2017, he assisted in establishing Kinmen University's Taipei credit classes.

Ruiyou Literature Museum Director Chen Chang-ching pointed out that Li Taishan's most praised contribution is his pivotal role in Kinmen's literary development, particularly as the publisher of the revived "Kinmen Literature" magazine. This initiative provided a platform for countless writers and ensured that Kinmen's literary voice continues to resonate. His leadership in various organizations has been a vital force in uniting Kinmen people globally. His writings, such as "My Father's Sorghum Wine" and "Lanhu Sketches," transform personal memories and island landscapes into literary works with deep historical significance.
