发生在1984年的荷花女名誉权案是新中国成立后首例死者生前的名誉、人格权益是否仍受民法保护的案例，而这在当时还没有明确的立法。1984年4月18日至6月12日，天津《今晚报·副刊》连载小说《荷花女》。因小说中有关荷花女（吉文贞）之母陈秀琴同意其女作妾并遭流氓侮辱的情节失实，所以原告陈秀琴将小说作者和报社共同告上法庭。该案后经天津市中级人民法院和代理律师王宗华的积极调解而结案，最高人民法院还专门复函了天津市高级人民法院。该案的公正审理也成为了全国法院处理此类案件的典型。
The Lotus Girl's reputation right case that occurred in 1984 was the first case after the founding of the People's Republic of China on whether the reputation and personality rights of the deceased were still protected by the civil law. At that time, there was no clear legislation. From April 18 to June 12, 1984, the Supplement of Tianjin Tonight News serialized the novel Lotus Girl. Because the plot of Chen Xiuqin, the mother of the Lotus Girl (Ji Wenzhen) in the novel, who agreed to her concubine as a concubine and was insulted by hooligans, the plaintiff Chen Xiuqin took the novel author and the newspaper to court. The case was closed after the active mediation of Tianjin Intermediate Court and the attorney Wang Zonghua. The Supreme People's Court also specially replied to Tianjin Higher People's Court. The fair trial of this case has also become a typical case in the handling of such cases by courts across the country.
