Who is the publisher of Heian Sutra?
The mass publishing house responded: "Don't ask, I can't tell you."
After the "Han Jing" sparked heated discussion, many netizens expressed their hope that the relevant authorities would investigate whether the author published the book with public funds? Are there any apportioned sales? Does the publishing process comply with regulations?
According to public reports, the book was jointly published by People's Publishing House and People's Publishing House in December 2019.
At 4:30 pm on July 28, People's Publishing House issued a statement on its official Weibo that it had never published the book "Peace Classics" and had never agreed to co-publish the book with any unit. The People's Publishing House reserves the right to pursue relevant legal liabilities for the act of publishing the book under the name of the publishing house and the related persons responsible.

Who bought this expensive book?
Priced at 299 yuan a copy, once sold out of stock on the e-commerce platform
On July 29, the reporter searched multiple e-commerce platforms, but could not find the book "Ping An Jing".
On the evening of the 29th, the website of the State Supervision Commission of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection published an article titled "So Safe and Absurd". The article said: The publication and sales of the book are confusing. The online picture shows that the book has a book number and is sold on e-commerce platforms. According to an e-commerce platform, the book is 245,000 words and is priced at 299 yuan. The price on another platform is 269 yuan. Of the two publishing houses printed on the book, one of them has publicly denied publishing this book. Then which publishing house is this book published? Has it fulfilled the corresponding book publishing procedures and passed the strict publishing approval process? Such a high price was once out of stock on the e-commerce platform. Who would buy such a book? "
In the last paragraph of the article "So Safe and Too Ridiculous", the "voices" of the majority of netizens were also said: "The online evaluation of the book is completely one-sided, which shows that the people have already weighed the book's weight. The onlookers can laugh, but the relevant parties must take it seriously, announce the results of the investigation and verification in time, and respond to the concerns of the masses. Because this is not just a case of a certain leading cadre, but also related to the image of the party cadre team."
