CN Times Books is the U.S. publishing subsidiary of Beijing MediaTime Books Co. LTD, a leading Chinese trade publisher and distributor.

Their parent company publishes over 600 books a year in a full range of content fields, with titles in fiction, nonfiction, books for children, and titles of scholarly and academic interest.[1] Beijing MediaTime Books was founded in 2008 by Chinese businessman George Daping Zhu, and also operates two distribution companies. Since it was founded, it has expanded into a $50 million business that reaps $6 million annual profit. That represents a 0.4% share of China's $12 billion books market.[2] The publisher considers itself to be a bridge between the Eastern and Western World. Their first book, China Threat? was published in July 2013,[3][4][5] and will be followed by more than 20 books in 2013 alone. It works directly with Ingram Publisher Services as a content distributor.
