AI Translation Is Helping Chinese Literature Go Global

AI translation is accelerating the global reach of Chinese online literature — that’s the conclusion of an annual industry report by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and culture and entertainment group China Literature. The report released last Friday found that overseas readership of Chinese web novels surged from 230 million in 2023 to 352 million in 2024.

By the end of last year, the overseas market for Chinese online literature reached 5.07 billion yuan ($700 million), up more than 25% year over year. Over 808,400 works have reached readers in more than 200 countries and regions, the report states.
