The translation industry is undergoing profound transformations against the backdrop of globalization and technological in-novation.Translation between English and Chinese is no longer just a simple process of language conversion,but involves complex commu-nication and information handling.In this context,the theory of new productive forces provides a framework for understanding and analy-zing the current changes in the translation industry.This paper,based on the four"news"proposed in the theory of new productive forces—new workers,new work materials,new work tools,and new infrastructure—analyzes how these elements jointly promote the devel-opment and transformation of the translation industry.By discussing the skill updates of translation practitioners,technological innovations in translation tools,and improvements in infrastructure,this paper aims to reveal how these factors change the productivity and service quality of translation.
