Cultivating talents and innovating technology are two ways to further promote the development of language service industry in China

CCTV News:In order to further promote the development of the language service industry, expand the export scale of language services and enhance the national language service capacity, the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of Education and other departments have built a number of language service export bases this year, which have made continuous progress in technology while cultivating language translators.

Liu Junrong is an English translator, majoring in language from undergraduate to graduate. Her first part-time job was not as an English tutor, but as a part-time translator on a language website.

Liu Junrong, an English interpreter in the translation center of a language information technology company in Sichuan;The business volume is very large, and there are many fields and languages. Because I am engaged in English, I chose the social science field that I am interested in, so that I can earn some pocket money and improve my study skills.

JUNG WOO, Product Manager of R&D Center of a Language Information Technology Company in Sichuan:This is the data of our backstage delivery. It can be seen that the delivery volume in the past 30 days is around 7,866 orders, and the delivery time is mainly concentrated from Monday to Friday, and the highest single day may reach more than 300 orders.

This company was recognized as an export base for language services by the Ministry of Commerce this year, with "language talent training and employment" as the core, and actively cooperated with many universities in Sichuan and Chongqing. The overseas income has increased significantly compared with 2020, with more than 3,000 foreign-related orders.

　　　　　　 Zhu Xianchao, Chairman of a Language Information Technology Company in Sichuan:In the future, we will actively expand overseas markets and plan to open branches or offices in Southeast Asia, Europe, Africa and other places to provide more convenient localization services for China enterprises to go overseas and overseas enterprises to invest in China.

Language translation needs not only the cultivation of talents, but also the improvement of technology. In a translation company in Hubei, an English manuscript of about 5,000 words only needs to be uploaded with one click, and each order has a customized translation payment scheme, and the order also relies on big data for intelligent distribution.

Xie Fei, a translator of a translation company in Hubei:Orders can be placed all over the world, because the whole process of this project is automated, so the time will be very short. They split a project into dozens or even hundreds of projects and recommend it to thousands of translators at the same time.

In recent years, with the continuous spread of overseas epidemic, the environment of international trade and cross-border communication has changed, which has a certain impact on the development of interpretation services such as overseas interpreters’ stationing and exhibition services. In the face of sudden challenges, this company chose to persist in continuous research and development in technology and strive to surpass the curve.

He Zhengyu, Dean of the Research Institute of a translation company in Hubei:We are not limited to machine translation, but also introduced AI technology and our own machine translation engine. The amount of data used by the overall vertical engine may have exceeded 1 billion. In this case, the number of projects that one person can trade at the same time will become a lot.

Russian customers of translation platform:The translation of a 200,000-word tender document takes one week in the traditional mode, and this platform can be shortened to less than 24 hours, which will gain more time for our enterprise.
