"We are pioneers of Taiwanese literature, a literature with unique characteristics," he once said. "The use of native dialects should be a part of expressing those unique characteristics, though it will take our determined effort."

Known as the Mother of Taiwanese Literature, Chung's novel The Dull Ice Flower (鲁冰花) was made into films in 1989 and 2008.
