Shanghai officials said at a July 23 briefing they will build a game export
service platform, continue support for online literature platform Qidian
International and promote district-level short-form web-drama export bases. The
city will continue compiling a country-specific China Game Export Guide and, via
universities and industry associations, provide IP-protection and finance
services for games. A one-stop service center for short-form web dramas will be
launched to consolidate government advisory, marketing, copyright protection and
financing for overseas distribution.
