[[file: Wang Hai.JPEG|thumb|250px|right]]

Born in [[1973]] in the city of [[Qingdao]] in [[Shandong Province]],''' Wang Hai''' ([[Chinese]]: 王海) has carried on a 15-year personal war against fake goods and for consumer rights. He is famous for setting up the "Wang Hai Consumer Protection Hotline".

Wang has also written a number of books on consumer rights, including ''I'm an untamed citizen'', [[Beat the fake makers]], and ''Learn to protect your property rights in a day''.

Wang became a household name in [[1996]] after appearing on the popular television talk show "Tell it like it is". The Guangzhou-based ''Southern Weekend'' dubbed Wang a "pragmatic patriot," and in [[1998]] he met President Bill Clinton during a symposium on the Chinese economy. The President reportedly said Wang was the "protector of Chinese consumers". In [[1999]], Wang took off his trademark Rayban sunglasses for the first time in public during a TV appearance (he wore the glasses to avoid being recognized when exposing fake products). He later became a regular host of the “Weekly Events" television program.
