　　Chinese web novels find fans in Thailand, inspire cosplay

　　According to a 2018 report on the development of Chinese web novels from Yuewen, a major Chinese online literature platform, more than14 million unique visitors have used their overseas site Webnovel in last year.

　　阅文集团是中国最大的网络小说平台之一。根据其2018年的网络文学发展报告显示，它的海外平台Webnovel去年一年便有1400万的访问量。

　　According to the Yuewen report, Chinese web novels first got their foot in the door to overseas markets by selling the copyrights to local publishers, after which overseas platforms were established by Chinese companies so they could export this type of literature on their own. The influence of Chinese web novels has become so great, that some writers outside of China have started to produce their own original stories inspired by Chinese online literature.

　　阅文集团的报告指出，中国网络文学经过了几个阶段：从最初的海外出版授权，到海外平台搭建与网文内容输出，再到目前的海外原创内容上线。

　　中国网络小说在泰国流行已经很长一段时间了，泰国人对于中国网络小说的喜爱程度可以说是狂热啦。

　　Thonnaratana was cosplaying asLan Wangji , the main character in the Chinese web novel Modao Zushi (Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation). When she heard that the studio was known for taking amazing shots of the characters from the novel, Thonnaratana became very excited and decided to go take pictures with her friend.

　　Thonnaratana扮演的人物是中国网络小说《魔道祖师》的主要人物之一的蓝忘机。

　　A fan of Chinese web novels for nearly seven years, she told the Global Times that she is not alone as

　　more young Thai people than ever before are reading literature from China nowadays.

　　已经痴迷中国网络小说将近七年的她告诉环球时报的记者，如今在泰国，阅读中国网络文学的年轻人比以前都要多。

　　中泰翻译紧缺

　　Mai, a freelancer translator who just finished translating two Chinese web novels for a newly established publisher, thinks thatcultural differences are the main obstacles when it comes to translation.

　　Mai是一名从事翻译的自由职业者，目前刚刚完成了两部中国网络小说的翻译工作。她认为，翻译中最主要的困难就是文化差异。

　　"It's difficult to find Thai counterparts for many Chinese words, metaphors and jokes," she explained.

　　她解释道：“很难在泰语里找到和一些中国词语、比喻或者笑话对应的表达。”

　　She said she was surprised to find that there were so many Chinese expressions dedicated to praising a woman's beauty and quickly discovered that the Thai language lacked equivalent words that conveyed the same meanings as the Chinese.

　　她说自己对于汉语表达的博大精深感到很震惊。比如，中文有那么多表达是赞美一个女性的美丽，泰语中却没有这么丰富的变化。

　　中国网络小说搭起了文化交流的桥梁

　　Raz Mey, a master graduate with duel degrees in English and international relations who also holds a bachelor degree in Chinese, says she enjoys reading these works because they help her better understand Chinese culture, such as how ancient Chinese carried out wedding ceremonies and the meaning behind traditional arts such as paper-cutting or rituals carried out during festivals.

　　Raz Mey,本科学习汉语，拥有英语和国际关系的双硕士学位。她告诉环球时报的记者，阅读中国网络小说可以更好地了解中国文化，比如中国古代的人如何举行婚礼、传统艺术和习俗背后的意义。

　　Mey told the Global Times that she actually prefers to buy thepaper versions of Chinese web novels

　　. She noted that she has so many books that she barely has room for them at her place anymore.

　　Mey说自己喜欢购买纸质版的中国网络小说，她有许许多多的小说书籍，以至于房间里都快放不下啦。
