曹雪芹
In 1791, together with his partner Cheng Weiyuan (), he "recovered" the last forty chapters of Cao Xueqin's monumental novel "Dream of the Red Chamber" (sometimes called "The Story of the Stone"). The nature and extent of his contributions to the work and the sources of his material are a matter of controversy, but it is believed by a large number of modern orthodox Redologists that the last forty chapters were not written by Cao Xueqin. He also edited the first eighty chapters together with Cheng.
