At the 21st Bangkok International Book Fair, Weisha Zaidi, 51, was walking around the crowded Chinese book exhibition area with a book about China's high-quality development under his arm, hoping to discover more beloved Chinese books. I am very interested in China's culture and economic and social development, and I hope to gain a more comprehensive understanding of how China has achieved such outstanding development achievements in the past few decades by reading Chinese books, "he told reporters in less fluent Chinese. Zaidi has been self-learning Chinese since 2006. He told reporters, "China is a big country, and unlike Western countries, China pursues win-win cooperation and hopes that every country can become more prosperous and prosperous, and everyone can live better. Whether in terms of national governance or economic policy implementation, China has many places that Thailand can learn from." This Bangkok International Book Fair is organized by the Thai Publishers and Booksellers Association and lasts for 11 days, ending on the 9th. As one of the important platforms for the Chinese publishing industry to export copyright to Thailand, the book fair not only attracts many Thai book enthusiasts like Zaidi, but also builds a bridge for communication and cooperation between Chinese and Thai publishers. Yu Chunhua, Copyright Director of Thailand Hongshan Publishing Co., Ltd., attended the signing ceremony for the Thai language copyright export and global synchronous publishing of "My National Park Series". Yu Chunhua told reporters that the "My National Park Series" introduced by China Elephant Publishing House this time is a high-quality children's literature work with the theme of protecting nature, hoping to win the love of Thai readers. With the enhancement of China's national strength and the increasingly close economic and trade relations between China and Thailand, Thai people are more interested in understanding various aspects of China, and books are an important medium. Yu Chunhua said, "When we go to Thai universities to promote Chinese books, we are often asked various questions about China, and students have a strong interest in China in many aspects." In addition to children's books, Hongshan Publishing Co., Ltd. has also introduced multiple Chinese novels in recent years, which are popular among Thai readers. Yu Chunhua believes that the cultures of the two countries are similar, and there are many similarities and even similarities in people's lifestyles, clothing, food, housing, and transportation, which helps Thai readers understand the content of Chinese novels. Li Yan, Deputy General Manager of China Science and Technology Import and Export Co., Ltd., introduced that the company exhibited carefully selected Chinese, English, and Thai language versions of Chinese publications at the book exhibition, including theme books, traditional Chinese culture and history, humanities and social sciences, language learning, traditional Chinese medicine, children's reading materials, etc., attracting many readers to stop. At this year's book fair, Xiamen Waitu Group Co., Ltd. held a salon for the China Thailand audio book industry, inviting Chinese Thai publishers, Thai audio book producers, platform owners, and translators to exchange and discuss the current situation and cooperation prospects of the China Thailand audio book market, and showcase China's advanced audio book technology. Wu Shuoxi, Deputy General Manager of Xiamen Waitu Group Co., Ltd., stated that Thai publishers have expressed strong interest in traditional Chinese cultural books and Chinese online literature, and have reached preliminary intentions for cooperation related to Sino Thai audio books. We hope to collaborate with the Thai audio book platform to integrate localization, promote the diversification of Chinese books, and allow more overseas readers to understand China through reading, "he said.
