The so-called publishing is to select the manuscript for editing and then print it into a book. ? The so-called distribution means selling books through certain channels. ? In the publishing industry 90 years ago, the publishing house had not established its own distribution team at that time, and most of them relied on Xinhua system, that is, Xinhua Bookstore, to complete the distribution work.

At that time, there was a remarkable feature that there were few private bookstores, and the publishing house only needed to hand over the books to Xinhua Bookstore, which was actually equivalent to completing the distribution work. ? But 90 years later, many private bookstores broke ground, and publishers gradually realized the urgent need for self-publishing. After all, they can't put the lifeline in the hands of a third party. Moreover, it is not a very reasonable method to resell it to private bookstores through Xinhua Bookstore.

Since then, various publishing houses have started their own distribution, and their publishers have sent books to Xinhua Bookstore system (main channel) and private bookstore system (secondary channel). At this time, the publishing right is in the hands of the publishing house.
