The Beijing court supported Ms. Gao on two counts and ruled that Dangdang should continue to honour her original contract of employment. In addition, the court said Dangdang should pay her salary from the date she applied for sick leave to the date of arbitration

Dangdang and PublishDrive recently announced a partnership.
From Forbes.com
E-commerce giant Dangdang and self-publishing platform PublishDrive announced a partnership that, for the first time, allows authors in the West to make their self-published e-books available on the website.
Dangdang, whose competitors are Amazon (Dangdang, like Amazon, just got into the physical bookstore game, opening its first store in January of this year; it also launched an e-reader, like Amazon, in 2012) and JD.com, launched its e-book platform in late 2011, but, until now, that platform had not been usable by Western authors.
Beyond the fact that this partnership is important because of the fact that many books in China are the product of state-sponsored publishers, the Chinese e-book market is expected to grow around 30% annually for the next three years. That means a lot of potential eyeballs for writers in the West.
