The thickest book in China.
The thickest book in China is The Grand Ceremony of China.

The Grand Ceremony of China is divided into 24 chapters, including 1 10 sub-chapters. There are more than 20,000 kinds of ancient books with about 800 million words, which is more than twice that of Yongle Grand Ceremony, more than four times that of ancient and modern books, and will exceed the sum of all ancient books in China. The compilation of 20 15 has been basically completed; 20 18, complete all the tasks of the release ceremony.

It turns out that the Sikuquanshu compiled by Emperor Qianlong also has about 800 million words, which is close to the China ceremony. However, due to many additions and deletions to the original works in history, a large number of precious historical materials have been tampered with or destroyed, which is despised by future generations and regarded as a cultural catastrophe in the history of China. So it's not tied with the China ceremony.
