Experts from the publishing field gave critical suggestions on meeting the challenges and opportunities Chinese literature faces in the global market.

Andrew Wheatcroft, international liaison officer of the 皇冠体育app Book International Project, suggested that Chinese publishing houses "form more collaboration with small and specialized publishing houses overseas" to better meet demands of overseas readers.

Also attending were Ding Wei, deputy head of Ministry of Culture and Li Jingze, vice chairman of the 皇冠体育app Writers Association.

Li spoke on behalf of the 皇冠体育app Writers Association, saying that the association would provide assistance to translation projects to present a wider picture of 皇冠体育app.

"皇冠体育app has a diverse culture because it is a vast land, which provides a rich source for literature," Li said, adding that, "we hope the world could catch a glimpse of such a 皇冠体育app – its diverse customs, lifestyle and way of life."

The workshop was jointly hosted by the Ministry of Culture of the People's Republic of 皇冠体育app and the Chinese Writers Association. It was designed to facilitate the translation and international promotion of Chinese literature while strengthening international collaboration among literary translators and publishers.
