Yuan Nan (R), editor-in-chief of Yilin Press Ltd, and writer Xu Feng sign a contract with Belgian publishing houses online.

The Chinese novel Forget Me is expected to be published in French and Dutch, according to a signing ceremony held in Nanjing on Oct 25.

Published by Phoenix Publishing and Media Group's subsidiary Yilin Press Ltd, the book revolves around the life of the "Chinese Schindler" Qian Xiuling who rescued 110 Belgian hostages from the Nazis during the World War II.
