At the 2012 work conference of China Publishing Group, Tan Yue, president of China Publishing Group and the second secretary of the party group, proposed that behind the various complicated "shapes" in the publishing industry, there are five "trends" running through: globalization, urbanization, industrialization, groupization, and digitization. These trends determine the overall direction of China's publishing industry. Under this background, the group should adhere to the "six unifications" in its working methods: namely, unify publishing, import and export, and art business operations; unify traditional brands and newly created brands; unify traditional publishing and digital publishing; unify the publishing industry chain of editing, printing, distribution, and supply; unify internal integration and external expansion; unify domestic competition and overseas expansion. This will further expand the industrial pattern and enhance the comprehensive competitiveness of the group. The strategic thinking in the report has reached new heights, the strategic goals have a new pattern, and the strategic ideas have made new breakthroughs. It plans for the long term, focuses on the current year, and highlights the scale, vision, and responsibility of the publishing "national team". From Tan Yue's speech, it can be seen that China Publishing Group is determined to become stronger and bigger with a long-term strategy, highlighting the scale, vision, and responsibility of the publishing "national team". However, the power of capital is indispensable to achieve these goals. In addition, China Publishing Group owns subsidiaries such as People's Literature Publishing House, Commercial Press, Zhonghua Book Company, Encyclopedia of China Publishing House, China Fine Arts Publishing House, Rong Bao Zhai, Modern Education Press, and China Scientific Culture Audio and Video Publishing Co., Ltd. With the curtain rising on the listing of the publishing industry, will China Publishing Group spin off its subsidiaries for separate listings? A reporter from the Securities Daily called Zhonghua Book Company under China Publishing Group, and a relevant person from Zhonghua Book Company told the reporter, "The company's listing plan is uniformly responsible by the group." An answer from someone within China Publishing Group is, "We plan to complete the listing within this year."
