天临四年，知网涉嫌垄断被查！为何会天下苦知网久矣？

中国市场监管部门周五表示，它已经对中国最大的在线学术数据库——中国知网（CNKI）展开了反垄断调查。

The State Administration for Market Regulation published the announcement on its website. It did not provide further details.

国家市场监管总局在其网站上发布了该公告，没有提供进一步的细节。

CNKI, whose parent company is Tsinghua Tongfang, a Chinese state-owned software company linked to China’s elite Tsinghua University, said in a statement on WeChat it would cooperate fully with the probe and it would take it as an opportunity to carry out a self-examination.

中国知网的母公司是清华同方，一家与中国顶级大学清华大学有关的中国国有软件公司，它在微信上发表声明称将全面配合调查，并将以此为契机进行自我检查。

CNKI came under scrutiny last month after local media reported China’s top research group, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, said it would suspend its use of CNKI, citing high subscription fees.

上个月，当地媒体报道中国顶级研究机构——中国科学院表示将暂停使用中国知网，理由是订阅费用过高，之后中国知网受到了审查。

The South China Morning Post reported that over the past decade at least six Chinese universities had suspended the use of CNKI over its fee increases.

《南华早报》报道称，在过去十年中，至少有六所中国大学因中国知网收费上涨而暂停使用。

CNKI said on its website that at the end of 2017 it had the world’s largest readership, with more than 20 million individual users and an average daily retrieval volume of over 10 million.

中国知网在其网站上表示，截至2017年底，其拥有全球最大的读者群，个人用户超过2000万，日均检索量超过1000万。

Asked about the controversy over CNKI fees, Tsinghua Tongfang told investors on Monday that both it and CNKI were aware of “public opinion” and that CNKI was looking to improve and make rectifications to its business model.

在被问及有关中国知网收费的争议时，清华同方周一告诉投资者，它和中国知网都意识到了 “公众意见”，中国知网正在寻求改善，并对其商业模式进行整改。
