BEIJING, June 27 (Xinhua) -- Revival of China's software industry has quickened as revenue growth entered positive territory, according to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.
Software companies reaped nearly 2.8 trillion yuan (about 395.6 billion U.S. dollars) in revenues from January to May, up 4.2 percent year on year, compared with a 0.1-percent drop in the first four months.
