==Early life==
Wang was born to a poor peasant family in Jinsha Town (Chinese: 金沙镇), Nantong, Jiangsu Province.〔“神剪”仙逝——回忆父亲的剪纸生涯, 王建中, 上海工艺美术, Shanghai Arts & Crafts, 2000年02期〕 He came to Shanghai with his uncle at the age of 13 and began to learn the art of papercutting from the street artist Wu Wanheng (Chinese: 武万恒). He was quick to learn the skills, and set up a stand to sell papercut works by the street near the New Town God's Temple (Chinese: 新城隍庙). Baixianqiao (Chinese: 八仙桥) or other down town areas. Over the years, Wang cut tens of thousands of papercut works or embroidery patterns which were distributed among urban and rural areas. Even so, his family, including six members, experienced hunger and lived in poverty for years. As a papercut artist, his life was poor and his artistic value was never officially recognized. However, Wang hoped that this folk art could be handed down so that he could live on it.
With the care of the Communist Party and the Government after 1949, Wang began to work in Shanghai Arts and Crafts Studio (Chinese: 工艺美术研究室; now Shanghai Arts and Crafts Institution, 上海工艺美术研究所). Seeing the wide difference in life of the present day from the old times and what life meant to him, he loved the work as well as the new China.〔Wang, Zigan (2004), p. 2.〕
