field of public cultural space, a session will also be conducted. At the same 
time, joint efforts are made with big data research firms, and major academic 
authoritative institutions to release "Xi'an Reading Portrayal", "WeRead City 
Reading Index", and "2019 Asian Bookstore Forum Online Popular Book List", 
Cultural scholars and famous industry front runners are all invited to witness 
this global and magnificent cultural event and start a truly crossover 
multi-field conversation.

Xi'an is a city blessed with profound history and culture, and the past years 
witnessed its rapid development and remarkable achievements in the culture 
industry. And this time, the Third Asian Bookstore Forum coming to Xi'an will 
build an unique cultural brand with both individuality and charm for Xi'an.

Not only from the perspective of forum scale but also the depth of discussion, 
the 2019 Asian Bookstore Forum, with joint efforts by Yan Ji You and Xi'an 
city, is not only a bookstore event, but a globally influential event of the 
industry. Yan Ji You insists on its originality to construct a culture bridge 
via its own efforts, in order to continuously energize China's Bookstores, 
promote the development of the bookstore industry, and explore new vitality for 
the whole cultural industry.
