According to Xinhua on October 8th, 2009, “China Daily – U.S. Version” has become the important source for mainstream American society to get information on China. As early as 1983, the third year of its establishment, “China Daily” started its circulation in the United States. Currently, “China Daily” is preparing to launch its “European version,” “Asian Version,” and multi-language versions so as to enhance its overseas influence.
“Let the world understand China and let China into the world” has been the mission of "China Daily," China’s national daily newspaper in the English language. After nearly 30 years of development, “China Daily” has become the most frequently quoted newspaper by foreign mainstream media. The U.S. White House subscribes to “China Daily” every year. Reading “China Daily” has become part of the White House’s high-level officials’ daily work.
