“Many publishers from all across the world print their works in China because it’s more economical. I don’t know about the expenses of paper and print in Iran, but Iranian publishers may publish their works in China,” Director of China’s stand at the 32nd TIBF said.

As the guest of honor in this event, China has brought a delegation of 200 members among them 100 authors, illustrators and publishers representing the active print industry of that country.
