To ensure that literary works online move in a sound and orderly manner, the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television of the PRC has recently issued a document called Guidance on Promoting the Sound Development of Online Literature.

The document said a group of key companies specializing in online printing and publication of literature will be cultivated; the authorities will implement an overall plan based on the present state of online literature and a long-term management mechanism will be set up to regulate online works by sample survey and appraisal system, etc. Innovative state-owned enterprises that posses qualified resources are encouraged to launch online literature business in the near future.

With the widespread use of Internet and easier access to online resources, literature of all shade has sprung up like mushroom on the Internet. However, many issues remain to be settled in a seemingly flourishing literary circle. Many works are low in quality and don’t push forward new ideas. It is believed that the implementation of the document will be of great significance to online literary works.
