What Xinhua Winshare Publishing & Media does

Sichuan-based state-owned publisher and distributor of textbooks, books and educational materials, with retail bookstores across Sichuan.

Most income comes from distributing state-funded textbooks and teaching aids to Sichuan schools, a steady contract-based flow set each school year. Publishing earns from selling books and periodicals it produces, while bookstores and online sales add lower-margin retail income. Free-textbook procurement volumes carry the results.
