We investigated the impact of Hua Zong Literary Award (HZLA) held from 1991 to 2011 on Chinese Malaysia literary in this study. The special and tight relationship among Chinese, Chinese newspaper, Chinese community in Malaysian society were represented in the second chapter, where the support to HZLA by Sin Chew Daily was discussed from the view points of historical context and development of Sin Chew Daily. We compared Hua Zong cosmopolitan Chiense Literary Award (HZCCLA) with The Nobel Prize in Literature in the chapter three and we also compared HZLA with China Times Literary Award and with United Daily News Literary Award, separatively, according to their essay approaches and review systems, in which the differences in operating system and breakthrough of HZCCLA and HZLA were described. In the chapter four, we further studied four winning entries of HZLA, including reportage, fiction, prose, and poetry according to “a field of force” theory of and Bourdieuru and “Equipe” theory of Escarpit. We found that the power struggle and personal view have existed in the comments of final review of HZLA committees. We then reported how team members (Equipe) of literary writers were altered or reorganized and how literary trend was formed because of those award comments made by HZLA committees. In chapter five, we discussed how excellent writers who obtain many literature awards in Malaysia and Taiwan can be generated from the Chinese Malaysians cultured in Taiwan. Finally, we summarized those important conclusions of this thesis in chapter six.
