Two new books in China are telling readers how the Internet and technology have changed the daily life and what to expect in the future.

Internet Plus: the Roadmap for the National Strategy, written by Pony Ma Huateng, the CEO of Chinese IT giant Tencent, and other experts, is seen as the company's interpretation of the government's digital roadmap. The book tells readers how technological developments will upgrade traditional industries.

The Internet Plus policy was officially spelled out in this year's government report by Premier Li Keqiang during the National People's Congress session in March－to integrate mobile Internet, cloud computing, big data and the Internet of Things with modern manufacturing to encourage the country's e-commerce boom.

While Ma's book, launched on Friday, emphasizes connection and the reshaping of businesses by the Internet, the Chinese edition of Digital Destiny, written by Shawn DuBravac and launched during the Consumer Electronics Exhibition Asia on Monday in Shanghai, takes readers on a tour of the digital future.

"Connection is the foundation and opens all possibilities," Ma writes in the preface of his book. "The Internet is just like electricity and it will inject new DNA into all industries to let them be born anew."

The book explains the concept and features of Internet Plus. A coauthor of the book and joint chairman of the China Value Association, Zhang Xiaofeng, describes it as a "crossover, merger and all-connecting" platform.

The book delves into how the Internet helps upgrade different areas of traditional industries in China.
