After he had spent around three years in Shaolin, a short documentary made about him by a director from Shanghai won first prize in a nationwide contest and was widely broadcast on Chinese television, notably CCTV4 and CCTV5. He has appeared several times on German television, and has been featured in the American Shaolin Kungfu Magazine, edited by Gene Ching, as well as in numerous Chinese newspaper and magazine articles.Shan Li was a member of the delegation which went to represent the Shaolin monastery at the Liu Da Men Pai in 2001, a meeting between the historically great systems of Chinese martial arts and religious practice. Representatives from Mount Emei, Mount Hua, Mount Wudang, the Kunlun mountains, Chen Jia Gou and Shaolin were in attendance, as were monks and lamas from as far afield as Tibet. A gathering of this scale had not been held for over eight hundred years.He was also amongst the selected twelve who performed at the Shaolin Kungfu International Academic Symposium held in 2003 to distinguish the true traditional Shaolin gongfu from modern wushu. As this only occurs once a decade or so, it is a great privilege for the martial artists who are selected to take part in the Shaolin Gongfu Guoji Xueshu Yantaohui performance, which is held in front of the monastery.Shan Li appears in two books about all the members of the Shaolin monastery which are sold nationwide and also appears in a collection of ten VCDs introducing the famous places and people of Henan province, produced by the Cultural Bureau of the Henan Provincial Government.His first book, The Discovery, about the founding fathers of the Shaolin monastery was published in 2007 by the Shaolin Monastery.Shan Li has been in Shaolin since 1998. Mainly leading a secluded life, he practices Chan and Wu till this day.
Currently working on book number three. This time it will be in German.
