According to the data released in the third “China Book World Influence Evaluation” in 2014, Guangxi Normal University ranked 12th among more than 580 publishers nationwide, and the overall economic scale ranked 10th among the national university presses.

However, although the humanities and social science books have won high honor and prestige to Guangxi Normal University, the benefits are not very rich. The main profit channel of the publishing house still comes from the publication and distribution of textbooks and supplementary books.

According to the statistics of the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television, educational books are statistically more than half of the total number of books published. For Guangxi Normal University, which started from the publication of textbooks, the proportion is higher.

Liu Shuoliang, a senior publisher, said that with the standardization of the textbook teaching and auxiliary book market, coupled with the implementation of quality education in the country to reduce the burden on students, the profit margins of teaching and auxiliary books are getting smaller and smaller, but the publishing houses are unable to give up. Competition is getting more intense.

In July 2010, Guangxi Normal University issued a statement saying that the agency and Guangxi Education Publishing Co., Ltd. and Relay Publishing Co., Ltd. officially entrusted Guangxi Yuwen Education Books Co., Ltd. on April 30, 2010 to act as agents of the three publishing houses.

After that, Guangxi Yuwen Education Book Co., Ltd. was changed to Guangxi Xinhua Longwen Education Book Trade Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Longman Education).

According to the industrial and commercial registration data, Longman Education was established in December 2013. The shareholders are Guangxi Normal University, Guangxi Education Publishing House Co., Ltd., Relay Publishing Co., Ltd., Guangxi Xinhua Bookstore Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Guangxi Xinhua Bookstore). And the natural person Li Wei. Among them, Guangxi Normal University paid 1.9 million yuan to be the second largest shareholder; the largest shareholder was Guangxi Xinhua Bookstore, and paid 3.4 million yuan; Li Wei paid 1.1 million yuan.

On February 3, 2015, the Guangxi Autonomous Region Commission for Discipline Inspection announced that Huang Jian, chairman and party secretary of Guangxi Xinhua Bookstore, was suspected of serious violation of discipline and was accepting an investigation. On July 23, 2015, Li Xiaoyong, deputy secretary, vice chairman and general manager of the Guangxi Xinhua Bookstore Party Committee, surrendered to the case handling agency. He used to be the deputy general manager of Guangxi Publishing Media Group Co., Ltd., and the president of the Guangxi Education Publishing House and the party general. Branch secretary. Before the two, Li Wei had been controlled by the judiciary.

According to the notice of the Guangxi Discipline Inspection and Supervision Network, on February 16, 2015, Li Xiaoyong, the second inspection team of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region Party Committee, gave a feedback to the Guangxi Xinhua Bookstore. The inspection team pointed out that Guangxi Xinhua Bookstore had problems in transferring benefits to private enterprises during the issuance of teaching aids, resulting in a large loss of state-owned assets; losses, loopholes and hidden dangers in major investments; asset management confusion of the Group and its subsidiaries There are obvious loopholes and major hidden dangers, and various forms of "eating" state-owned assets have emerged...

On May 19, 2016, the Fangchenggang Intermediate People's Court of Guangxi was sentenced to 11 years in prison for Li Xiaoyong's bribery case and fined 500,000 yuan.

The court found that since 2009, Li Xiaoyong has used his position as the president of Guangxi Education Publishing Co., Ltd. to select the free teaching assistant procurement catalogue for the local primary and secondary schools of the Guangxi Education Department for the classroom work project of the book publisher Li Wei.

According to people close to He Linxia, ​​he may be involved in the Li Wei case. However, until September 2015, He Linxia had not felt abnormal. At a meeting in Shanghai, he also made a draft for the 30th anniversary of the Guangxi Normal University in the coming year.

Famous in the humanities and social science books

The old campus of Guangxi Normal University is located in the Ming Dynasty Palace in Guilin, Guangxi. On the campus surrounded by the ancient city wall, there is a unique Xiufeng peak known as Guilin, the king of the mountains. In 1996, it was announced by the State Council as a national key cultural relics protection unit. A five-story building with elegant style and patchwork in the northeast corner of the campus is the Guangxi Normal University.

Guangxi Normal University was established on November 18, 1986. On June 28, 2009, it was reorganized into Guangxi Normal University Publishing Co., Ltd., and Guangxi Normal University Publishing Group Co., Ltd. was established on this basis.

From a university publishing house in the southwestern Guilin, it has grown into a prominent publishing house for humanities and social sciences in China. He Linxia and Liu Ruilin have made great contributions, but the foundations laid by their previous leaders are also indispensable.

Wang Jianzhou, who served as secretary of the Party Committee and deputy director of Guangxi Normal University, said in an article in 2006 that the first president, Wang Wei, “three on Beijing, seven Nanning” got the approval for the opening of the business, and also described the initial stage of the venture. The school departments have a total of 270,000 yuan to start the purchase of printing equipment, bank loans of 300,000 yuan to publish the "Junior high school exam questions selection and analysis" of the hardships.

At the beginning of the establishment of Guangxi Normal University, Liu Shuoliang was hired as a consultant to participate in the growth and growth of the society. Liu Shuoliang said that educational books such as textbooks and supplementary books have always played an important role in the traditional publishing industry. "Educational books are rich in the publishing industry, and the original accumulation of a large number of domestic publishing houses is based on textbooks." It is a publishing house based solely on educational books and publications. Wang Hao and the second president, Party Yu Min, won the policy support of the Education Department of Guangxi Autonomous Region (then the Autonomous Region Education Committee) and the District Publishing Bureau, relying on the compilation of textbooks and teaching aids. The book started, laying the foundation for rapid development.

By the end of 1998, Guangxi Normal University had become famous in the teaching and auxiliary publishing industry, and became one of the “new six schools of teaching aids”. It entered the top ten of domestic education supplementary books, with an annual circulation code of 200 million yuan. In June of this year, Xiao Qiming, who was only 33 years old, took up the third president, and He Linxia served as the editor-in-chief.

However, the teaching of the supplementary publication may have laid the foundation for the fall of He Linxia.

In the new century, Guangxi Normal University started its expansion. In Beijing, Guangzhou, Nanjing, Nanning, Shanghai and other cities, the company established the wholly-owned or controlled Publishing Consultant Co., Ltd. with the same logo as “Bebeit”. In 2003, Liu Ruilin joined Guangxi Normal University and was responsible for Beijing Beibei Te Publishing Consultant Co., Ltd.

He Linxia, ​​who has been a teacher in the history department for 12 years, entered Guangxi Normal University in 1994 and is responsible for the training of modern history book editors in the editorial office of literature and history.

The most talked about with He Linxia is his refined scholarly style. Yang Guoliang, former deputy secretary of the Guangxi Normal University Party Committee and secretary of the Party Committee of Guangxi University, said in an article in 2006: "Professor He has a profound academic background, a rigorous work style, and a broad and considerate style."

Because of the background of literary and historical scholars, after serving as the chief editor, He Linxia began to lead the publishing house to the publication of humanities and social science books.

Zou Cairen, the largest teaching assistant book agent in Guangxi and the chairman of Guangxi Yuzhi Culture Communication Co., Ltd., believes that He Linxia’s greatest contribution is to open up humanities and social sciences for publishing houses in addition to educational books. The publishing direction of books has taken a new road. Its representative works are the two cultural brands of “Ideal Country” and “Xinmin Theory”.

At the awarding ceremony of the first "China Publishing Government Award" on February 27, 2008, Guangxi Normal University won four awards in four categories, including the Advanced Publishing Unit Award and the outstanding publishing person award won by He Linxia.

After receiving the award in Beijing as the editor-in-chief, He Linxia returned to Guilin on March 3, replacing Xiao Qiming as the president. In June 2009, the publishing house was reorganized into a business, Guangxi Normal University Press Co., Ltd. and Guangxi Normal University Press Group were unveiled, and He Linxia served as chairman.

Under the leadership of He Linxia, ​​the “Utopia” cultural brand was founded in 2010. The official website of "Utopia" is: "The company has been committed to the publication of humanities, thoughts, and art books, and is engaged in the planning and organization of cultural activities, as well as the development of cultural and creative products. It is an active and influential cultural institution." There are more than one hundred kinds of books produced, including: Chen Danqing's "Retirement", Liang Wendao's "Common Sense", Chai Jing "Seeing" and more than 100 authors' works. In addition, the "Utopia" holds more than 100 cultural events each year, and the two "Year of the Year's Culture Salon" is designed for young people in the form of exhibitions and performances.

In 2013, Guangxi Normal University began to create another brand new culture, 300,336, which is based on the fields of law, political science and sociology. It focuses on book publishing, with cultural salons, lectures and seminars. Network promotion is radiation and supplement, and builds an interactive and service Platform centered on authors and readers as well as sales channels.

He Linxia said that the platform was named "Xinmin said" and he was looking forward to "taking the tribute to the road of Ren Gongxinmin and paying tribute to Mr. Ren Gong".

The "ideal country" and "Xinmin theory" have gained a wide reputation in the intellectual group, which has made Guangxi Normal University famous in the field of humanities and social sciences publishing.

He Linxia said many times on different occasions: "These two brands are the feedback of the publishing house to the society and readers at multiple levels, that is, to promote social progress through the exchange of ideas and concepts, with positive culture, ideas, Value and concept influence the younger generation and shape the society. This is the ideal and cultural responsibility of the publisher, and it is also the publishing purpose of the publishing house—opening the people's wisdom and inheriting the civilization.

At the 25th Book Fair on September 25, 2015, He Linxia said that for a publishing house or a cultural enterprise, a good book is a matter of course.

After he was arrested, an employee who had left the Guangxi Normal University wrote in an article recalling He Linxia: The book is the epitaph of the publisher.
