Youdao, a popular online dictionary and translation brand under NetEase Inc, a leading Chinese IT company, announced a plan to release a series of online courses in Beijing on Wednesday.

In addition to existing courses, mainly involving English language training, on Youdao's platform, many more new courses covering different subjects and fields, including music and fashion, will be added, according to Zhou Feng, CEO of Youdao.

"We'll also continue to work, as we always do, to improve the users' experience of our online courses," Zhou said.

In June, the number of people using Youdao online dictionary — a major product used by Chinese netizens to learn foreign languages — reached 600 million. The year 2015 alone saw an increase in user numbers of 100 million.

With such a large number of users, Youdao is determined to further promote its online courses and other related products.

Zhou said Youdao has been using technologies and artificial intelligence to make studying and learning languages easier and more effective.

"We are making efforts to apply AI technology to translation and interpretation, and our newest neural machine translation engine will launched within the year," he said.
