On June 29, 2023, the opening ceremony and first reading forum of the 9th Pudong Employee Reading Festival, "Joy and Thinking · Meeting Thirty Six Rows", was launched at the Shuangge Building Employee Service Station in Xincun Street, Weifang, Pudong New Area. This year's activities are even more exciting and rich in content, based on previous ones. In collaboration with various staff bookstores in Pudong New Area, with the theme of "Meeting Thirty Six Rows", 5 themed reading activities, 15 staff reading salons, and 1 Pudong classic recitation competition were held.
The event is hosted by the Pudong New Area Federation of Trade Unions and organized by the Pudong New Area Workers' Cultural Palace. By inviting guests from the cultural and artistic circles, as well as representatives or craftsmen from the high-tech industry in Pudong New Area, and taking "industry culture" as the starting point, traditional culture is promoted through art exhibitions, reading sharing, professional exchanges, and employee interaction, showcasing the development of high-tech industries and cross-border integration between industries, and showcasing the reading style of Pudong employees in the new era.
