Abstract

Zhang Jian, an industrialist in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China, was a prominent figure in the cultural landscape of Nantong and a pioneer in China's modern national industry. He is renowned as the "Father of Chinese Industry." In the context of the Belt and Road Initiative, the significance of the international dissemination of the Chinese entrepreneurial spirit has become increasingly prominent. As an outstanding representative of Chinese national entrepreneurship, the international dissemination of Zhang Jian's cultural legacy holds extraordinary importance. Based on the theory of translation compensation and the communicative characteristics of international publicity translation, this paper proposes methods of compensating for phonetic, discourse, and sociocultural aspects to provide references and insights for relevant translation practices.
