Abstract:

This article introduces the work and achievements of Science Press in“going
global”since the reform and opening up， focusing mainly on the path planning and implementation
of “going global”. We have made leaps and bounds from“borrowing a ship to sail”（i.e.， using
international partners’ distribution channels），
“building a ship to sail”
（i.e.， establishing our own
international branches）all the way to“buying a ship to sail”（i.e.， acquiring foreign publishers
to achieve internationalization）. Firstly， the company has strengthened international cooperation
and achieved the export of its products through copyright export and co-publishing， and a large
number of outstanding Chinese sci-tech monographs and journals have gone global in this way;
secondly， the company has established its own branches overseas from scratch， realising the
internationalization of Science Press brand and promoting international exchanges; thirdly，
Science Press completed the acquisition of EDP Sciences in France in November 2019， improving
Science Press’ international layout， building a bridge from“going out”to“going in”for science
publishing， and constructing an international gateway. In the future， Science Press will continue
to improve its international layout and build a modern global science communication platform.
