China's culture industry reported a solid recovery in 2021, said NBS senior statistician Zhang Peng. Zhang noted that 41 out of 43 industry subsectors reported year-on-year expansion in operating revenue.
The total operating revenue of the 16 subcategories closely related to new business forms, such as animation, games, and digital publishing, climbed 18.9 percent year on year. It accounted for 33.3 percent of the total revenue of the industry.
