BEIJING - Against the backdrop of a screen showing white clouds wandering across a crystal blue sky, poets chanted words that resonated with the Dutch music.
A Dutch flavor will spice up the annual Beijing International Book Fair, the fourth largest of its kind in the world, which officially opened on Wednesday in Beijing at the new China International Exhibition Center in Shunyi district.
The five-day event will welcome more than 2,000 publishing organizations from 60 countries and regions to showcase more than 200,000 new books, periodicals, electronic publications and audio-video products.
