A Chengdu publisher has agreed to stop publication of a comic book based on Li Xintian's classic novel Sparkling Red Star and pay "appropriate compensation".
During a lawsuit filed in December, the Intermediate People's Court of Chengdu heard that the company published a series of comic books in May 2013 based on the history of China's revolution, including Sparkling Red Star.
Li found out about the books when a fan came from Jinan, Shandong province, for his autograph.
