These are two works written by SBOOKS founder Nguyen Anh Dung, belonging to the self-development and mindset-building series, aiming to break free from conventional thinking. The series has received many positive reviews from readers, especially those aged 18-35. Author Nguyen Anh Dung shared his feelings upon receiving the award with VietNamNet reporters: “This is an honor for the SBOOKS team. This certificate not only acknowledges our hard work but also serves as an important motivation for the publishing team to strive for greater strength and enthusiasm.” Mr. Dung affirmed that, following this momentum, SBOOKS will further improve its publishing efforts, focusing on culture, education , and the development of young Vietnamese writers. According to Mr. Dung, by October 2024, SBOOKS will have sold nearly 3 million copies across more than 300 titles in various fields. Looking at the entire book publishing and distribution industry in 2024, SBOOKS can be said to be one of the most active book publishing and distribution units. Having gained popularity on the TikTok platform since the end of 2023 with a series of trend-setting books such as "Turning Everything into Money" and "Winning the Battle Against the Devil Within You ," SBOOKS has almost made a surprising turnaround in 2024, leading the trend towards classic literary works: "How the Steel Was Tempered," "Becoming a Prostitute," and "The Lucky Number. " Mr. Dung emphasized that the development strategy will focus on applying technology, artificial intelligence, and social media. SBOOKS is one of the few units actively organizing livestreams, connecting with e-commerce platforms, and creating quality book purchasing sessions for readers. "All inventions related to artificial intelligence, social networks... are researched and created by humans. Therefore, instead of worshiping and worrying about algorithms, we must find ways to master them, open up our own trends, not wait for others to pioneer them. Success does not come from waiting, but only when we dare to commit and make trade-offs," Mr. Dung affirmed. As the founder of two publishing units that distribute paper books (SBOOKS) and audio books (BOOKAS), Mr. Nguyen Anh Dung has high expectations for the development potential of both of these forms. "The first and consistent principle of both book genres is to always pay attention to culture, especially Vietnamese literature throughout history until today," Mr. Dung affirmed.

The two books "Reverse Thinking" and "Open Thinking" released more than 1 million copies in 2024.

The content of "Reverse Thinking" is divided into three parts, decoding who you are, how you need reverse thinking to achieve success and happiness, and methods to help you bravely live the life you want. Part 1: How You've Lived Your Life, points out the reality we live in, and how seemingly small habits can easily influence our choices and quality of life. Part 2: Living the Life You Want, discusses some thinking "formulas" to help us have a happy and prosperous life, freely pursue our passions, and turn our dreams into reality. This is shown through real, relatable stories so that any reader can access and learn from them. Part 3: Choosing Is Really Easy, guides us to live a proactive, decisive life, free from hesitation and anxiety when faced with choices. Most importantly, this section will guide you in self-discovery, overcoming and improving bad habits to move towards a higher quality of life. "Open Mindset" is compiled from the author Nguyen Anh Dung's learning and research both domestically and internationally, along with his personal experiences. The book offers the valuable insights of an open mindset, helping us confidently pursue our dreams, embrace obstacles, and live happily. Author Nguyen Anh Dung has previously published works such as: " The Way of Business" (Top 10 business books worth reading in 2023, as nominated by Saigon Business Magazine); "Mastering Your Destiny" (also honored by the same magazine in 2024), "Reverse Thinking," "Open Mindset," etc.
