Chinese Lianhuanhua, adaptation and ‘pirated films’
Introduction to Chinese Lianhuanhua
Before the emerge of the pirated DVDs which became to curse to most of the movie industries which decreased their movie earnings, piracy started long back. This a tradition which is not a new practice. We are all aware about pirated movies. Now we will talk about a piracy which is the “Chinese Lianhuanhua”. Let us have a brief introduction about “Lianhuanhua” before understanding why is it called “Pirated Films”. Lianhuanhua and another one popularly known as Manhua were Chinese comics historically known as such. Lianhuanhua was very popular in China in the 20th century. This is because at that time the printing technology was very cheap and it made it possible for the publishers to produce such images and comics printed at a very low cost. That is why lianhuanhua become very popular at that time due to its availability in abundant.

Basically the “hua” means drawings and “lianhuan” means linked up that are joined together in a chain. The pictorial sequence that was used in the comic started telling stories to us depicted in pictures. The contents of lianhuanhua’s ranges from Chinese literary classics, fiction, non-fiction, translated literature, fairy tales, myths, folklore, biography, etc. 
It is said that lianhuanhua proceeded manhua because both of them emerged as distinct forms of production. These comics consisted of colourful and even black and white drawings in normal and big images, often consisting text just below the image describing the situation or the story. Also, speech balloons were used to jot down text. These comics were very cheap and in very low prices could be purchased. Even if someone couldn’t purchase or cannot afford, they could rent these comics in the streets kiosks and can read them. There were chairs in the street where a vendor selling such comics had shelves containing these whole lot of tiny comics and people usually came rented them and started reading them. These comics were sequences of stories which can run up to several volumes and people can finish it up in one sitting too. They can be compared to manga cafes but it has gone now. From the year 1949,
