During the Hong Kong Book Fair held in the summer of 2013, the Chung Hwa Book Company was exposed for selling an abridged version of "A Brief History of Hong Kong" (the original English version was compiled by Professor Mark Gould of the Department of History of the University of Hong Kong). Zhonghua Book Company responded that there were two versions of the Chinese translation. The complete version was published in Hong Kong and other regions, and the abridged version only produced a small number of sample books for copyright trade and distribution with mainland China. During the Hong Kong Book Fair, due to stocking and display errors, 38 copies of the sample book were sold at the exhibition, and they were later recalled in time. ==See also==
