"Wind on the Fields" is a collection of short stories by author Nguyen Kim Chau, published by the Culture and Arts Publishing House in 2012. The book features 12 short stories, written by Nguyen Kim Chau between 1993 and 2011. Nguyen Kim Chau is an Associate Professor and Doctor of Philosophy with extensive experience at Can Tho University and is a renowned writer. Many short stories in this collection are very popular, such as "Stories of the Delta," "Seeing the Wrong and Not Acting," and especially "The Sacred Buffalo's Field."

For this reason, the news that the Ho Chi Minh City General Publishing House is about to release the ebook "Wind on the Fields" has generated much anticipation among readers. With a published price of only 30,000 VND, readers can own a high-quality ebook.

Recently, the Ho Chi Minh City General Publishing House has focused on developing ebook products and the ebook market. The publisher has signed ebook publishing agreements for many previously published print works that have been popular with readers. The publisher's online ebook promotion and distribution platform is also very modern. Through various methods of bringing ebooks closer to readers, such as discounted combo deals and selections of classic and best-selling works, the Ho Chi Minh City General Publishing House has made a significant impact.

Other publishers and book distributors such as Tre Publishing House and Tri Thuc Publishing House are also very interested in the ebook market. Tri Thuc Publishing House's book reading application is a mobile app, primarily operating on smartphones and tablets. Users simply download the application from the app store (App Store or Google Play) to access the books offered by Tri Thuc Publishing House. In addition, Tri Thuc Publishing House also publishes ebooks on its website nxbtrithuc.com.vn, allowing readers to access and purchase printed and e-books directly, and also read ebooks from a web browser.

The development of ebooks has also led to the emergence of many literary competitions on digital platforms, reaching a wider audience. For example, Bookas Audiobook Company recently launched the "Digital Literature" novel competition. The competition aims to provide opportunities for aspiring writers to share their works with millions of readers through digital platforms. A special feature of this competition is that entries are not only submitted in manuscript form but also have the chance to be converted into digital products, helping Vietnamese literature reach further in the new era. The competition invites reputable writers such as Võ Thị Xuân Hà, Nguyễn Đình Tú, and Tống Phước Bảo to participate in the judging panel, evaluating works based on four criteria: creativity, artistry, ideological value, and especially the potential for dissemination on digital platforms.

Clearly, ebooks are receiving a lot of attention and are proving very useful in the digital age, with the expectation that they will contribute to spreading a reading culture in the community and bringing books closer to young people.
