Chapter 970 Yang Xiaozhao visits the bookstore (two-in-one chapter)
"Going to the bookstore?"
When Yang Qian told Dai Zhenhong his plans for today at the dinner table, he saw his father-in-law's serious look and thought he was not interested in the bookstore.
Who would have thought that Dai Zhenhong thought for a moment and nodded.
"It's a good idea to go to a bookstore to celebrate the New Year. The environment in the bookstore is nice and quiet, and Zhaozhao likes reading. Going to the bookstore is also a way for her to cultivate her sentiments and cultivate her desire for knowledge!"
Dai Zhenhong first affirmed, and then asked:
"Which bookstore are you going to?"
"I haven't decided which bookstore to go to yet, but I should go to a bookstore with a larger space and a better environment. I'm also asking my colleagues in the group to give me some suggestions. They go to bookstores more often. I shop online.
There are many.”
Yang Qian quickly took his cell phone and said to his father-in-law.
Qianyu Media has many literary and artistic young people, after all, the boss is this type. Therefore, they not only like music, but also like to read some miscellaneous books.
Yang Qian sometimes came out of the recording studio and wanted to relax for a few minutes and stretch his muscles. As a result, he chatted with them about the books he had read recently and became very involved in the conversation. More than half an hour passed in the blink of an eye!
"You can go to the town we went to when you first came to Magic City. There is a beautiful bookstore there. Isn't the entire floor covered with glass to separate the books?"
Dai Yuni smiled and said that she just remembered it temporarily.
"You don't have a place in particular that you want to go, so I can give you a suggestion. First of all, you can be sure that it is a membership reservation system. There shouldn't be many people there during the Spring Festival, which meets your requirements for quietness. Secondly, space
It's big enough. The entire bookstore covers an area of more than 2,000 square meters, with two floors, both upper and lower. Both the bookshelf display and the architectural style are very distinctive. Finally, and more importantly, it was actually invested by a friend of mine. It was held at the opening reception before.
I even went to show my appreciation. So, it’s no problem for us to go directly without making a reservation.”
Dai Zhenhong picked up the teacup, took a sip, raised his eyelids, and spoke slowly to Yang Qian.
In fact, the main concern of Yang Qian and Dai Yuni was that Dai Zhenhong refused to go. After all, his leg was injured and he had to use a wheelchair to get in and out. Comrade Dai didn't like being exposed to outsiders, especially when the media saw his fragile side, so he simply went deep into the situation.
Simple and rarely seen in public.
But if Dai Zhenhong doesn't go, they can't leave the old man alone at home. They might as well just celebrate the New Year at home without going out.
Fortunately, according to Comrade Lao Dai's wishes, he still wants to go out for a walk!
"Then let's go to the place Dad said. What else can you say? It sounds like the place we want to go!"
Yang Qian looked at Dai Yuni, made eye contact, and smiled.
The bookstore Dai Zhenhong was talking about is located in a group of old buildings surrounded by hedgerows.
"It was originally a country club built by a group of foreigners from Britain and the United States in our capital during the Republic of China. It was a replica of the things in their hometown. They sang, danced and had fun every day. And there was a villa there, which was
Sun Ke’s former residence, Sun Ke, everyone should know who he is, right?”
The friend Dai Zhenhong contacted should not be comparable to Dai Zhenhong in background and status. As soon as he heard that Dai Zhenhong was coming, he did not dare to neglect or even leave the reception work to others. He turned down other arrangements and hurriedly came in person.
Guide Dai Zhenhong and others and make introductions.
However, neither the country club nor the former residence of a celebrity as a cultural relic protection unit has anything to do with this middle-aged man named Zhang Dun.
His bookstore is just rented here!
Zhang Dun's identity is actually a bit special. He is first of all a famous writer (Writer Rich List). Yang Qian didn't connect him with the Zhang Dun in his impression at first, because Yang Qian had previously
Qian had read his book and knew the name Zhang Dun, but when they met, Dai Zhenhong always called him "Mr. Zhang, Mr. Zhang". It was only later that Yang Qian found out that he was the writer Zhang Dun!
Of course, Zhang Dun is not just a writer, he is also a genius and a businessman!
At the age of eighteen, Zhang Dun obtained a doctorate in medicine in China. Then he did not become a doctor. Instead, he went abroad to study for a master's degree in business administration. Later, he worked in a very famous consulting company abroad. After returning to China, he worked in a top
Central enterprises have achieved the position of CEO.
Of course, now that he is on his own, he is not short of money anyway. He invests, writes books, and even opens a bookstore, it is all because of his ideals - at least that's what Zhang Dun himself said.
"Actually, profitability can still be achieved. Even if the epidemic was so severe in the past few years, we can survive. The most important thing is that the business logic of my bookstore is not rigid. I will not talk about opening a bookstore. I just want to open a bookstore.
They would say that I open a bookstore and only sell coffee as an auxiliary. This routine has been used too much and the homogeneity is very serious."
Entering this "Zhaowen Bookstore", Zhang Dun's conversational interest reached a new level. He looked at Dai Zhenhong sitting in the wheelchair, and at Yang Qian pushing Dai Zhenhong, and introduced them to them eloquently.
From the appearance of Zaowen Bookstore, it is very suitable for taking photos and checking in. It is a two-story long building with a relatively simple exterior wall and a sense of age. The round-arched glass door also has an antique feel.
But a row of nearly ten round-arched floor-to-ceiling glass doors (which may also be windows), just like a row of city wall door openings, gives people a very strong visual impact!
At night, the orange light shines through the clean glass doors, and the scenery should be more beautiful. Now it is daytime, and Yang Qian and the others can feel the interplay of light and shadow after entering! The gentle spring light falls slanting through the glass doors and windows.
In the book, this scene would be a blockbuster if shot with a mobile phone!
The bookshelf is also very interesting. It is not the traditional large bookshelf that stands on top of the sky and is stacked in layers. Instead, it is made of a combination of wooden strips and thin boards, customized into rows of bookshelves that look a bit like small bookstalls!
It has two floors below, and in the middle is a flat table for displaying books. There are only four floors of books on the top. The key is that the overall feeling is not depressing - the round arch made of wooden strips on the top forms the overall shape of the bookstore.
But the visual ductility left ensures the connection between the space above and the air!
Of course, the lighting layout is also very important, because even during the day, the deeper spaces inside still need lights to illuminate.
The wooden strips are also where the light strips are arranged, and there are corresponding light strips in the two-story bookshelf under the countertop to ensure a bright and soft visual perception. At the same time, the light shines on the waxed and polished wooden floor.
, it can also give people a simple and relatively fresh feeling, without being too heavy!
"In my bookstore, what you see here are mainly books. Then go here, go inside, and in the cashier area and coffee and tea drinking area on the other side, there will be our exclusive cultural and creative products, or some peripheral products of the books.
At the same time, we also hold some art exhibitions regularly, and a lot of enthusiasts choose to come to watch the exhibitions and buy books. There is no sales during the Spring Festival. We give most employees a holiday, leaving only a few people on duty."
Zhang Dun introduced.
Yang Qian was originally not that interested in cultural and creative products, but when he accompanied Dai Zhenhong and his family, following Zhang Dun's footsteps, and came to the area where the other party mentioned their exclusive cultural and creative products, he realized that Zhang Dun
How much effort has been put into this aspect!
"This is our canvas bag, with different patterns and famous quotes. We will launch a new one almost every quarter, but if the old ones sell well, we will keep selling them. Like this 'Mine'
The book bag can hold the entire universe. It was designed five years ago. I ordered this manuscript, so it left a deep impression on me. Many readers like it very much and often carry this bag to participate in activities. It is still very popular now.
pin!"
Zhang Dun handed Yang Qian a canvas bag, smiled and asked him to pick whatever he liked.
He must know Yang Qian's identity, but until now he has not mentioned a word about the singer.
In addition to canvas bags, there are also more common notebooks, bookmarks, desk calendars, and even cultural and creative products such as dishes.
"Teacher Zhang, is this also a bookmark of yours?"
Yang Qian saw a set of boxed cards, which looked a bit like bookmarks, but they were wider and not as thin and long as bookmarks. But they had patterns on them, and they were more delicate and beautiful than bookmarks - after all, they were
With more places to write, the content will be richer.
"It's not a bookmark, this is called a bookplate. In fact, it was first developed abroad. It existed in Europe in the 15th century, and was later introduced to China at the beginning of the last century. It is equivalent to our traditional book stamp. When affixing such a bookplate, it represents
This is the collection of that bibliophile. Many famous printmakers in history have participated in its design!"
Zhang Dun saw that Yang Qian didn't understand, so he introduced it to him in detail.
It turns out to be an elegant way to play!
Yang Qian was only interested in the prints, just like reading comics, and couldn't help but take a few bookplates and read them. But if he really wanted to put such a bookplate on his own books, Yang Qian was not interested.
Already.
Isn't this boring?
Books are meant to be read in the stomach, and posting something like this will not increase your knowledge.
Of course, there are still some products that Yang Qian likes in the cultural and creative area.
For example, Yang Qian was very interested in those crystal glass book weights with famous quotes printed on them. They look good-looking, have texture when held in his hands, and are practical to use. They can help him hold down books while reading.
!
Looking at it this way, I really need to buy a few!
"Xiao Zhang, let's go to your office for tea and let them young people read here. They like reading, but they can't chat with us."
Dai Zhenhong waited until the introduction was almost complete, then nodded to Zhang Dun and said.
It wasn't that Dai Zhenhong wanted to drink tea. He knew that Yang Qian and Dai Yuni brought their children to the bookstore, and they definitely wanted to read and browse the bookstore.
But Zhang Dun was too enthusiastic and kept following and actively introduced.
Of course, this has a lot to do with Dai Zhenhong!
Zhang Dun is not really a talkative person. As a former CEO of a state-owned enterprise, it goes without saying that he has a strong speaking ability and can express and hold back.
But today the big boss Dai Zhenhong came, and Zhang Dun couldn't make the situation awkward, so he could only take the initiative to introduce him. Moreover, he also wanted Dai Zhenhong to know more about him. "Zaowen Bookstore" has opened several stores, and he will continue to do so in the future.
Expansion may require cooperation with Dai Zhenhong. Runyuan Real Estate owns many commercial sectors in second-tier cities.
"Okay, Mr. Dai, I'll recommend you. Mr. Dai, please come this way too."
Without saying a word, Zhang Dun pushed Dai Zhenhong and took Yang Huaping and Hong Xiaoxia to his office for tea.
Yang Qian and Dai Yuni now have some space to visit bookstores and walk their children freely!
Yang Xiaozhao couldn't hold himself back for a long time!
She was very interested in this "room" full of books. As soon as Yang Qian put her down on the wooden floor, the little girl excitedly pulled away her father's hand that was holding her, and using her limbs together, she quickly crawled into a book
Stall style bookshelf in front.
Little people are unable to read books at high places, but with the two shelves below the table, adults may need to squat down or bend down to pick up books, but for Yang Xiaozhao, it is relatively friendly!
She stopped crawling, raised her little head, and looked at the two rows of books in front of her curiously with her big eyes.
They are also relatively friendly, lined up in rows, with the covers facing outwards, and Yang Xiaozhao can still see the colorful cover pictures above!
It just so happens that the bookshelf in the row near Cultural and Creative Industries is in the natural science category, and the books that Yang Xiaozhao is facing are also recently published popular science books!
You can see that on their covers, there are either starry skies or nebulae, but also animals and plants!
But no matter what they are, they are all very interesting, just like the picture books that Yang Xiaozhao reads with his father at home, with diverse patterns and colorful colors!
It was precisely for this reason that the little guy stopped with such interest.
"Fortunately, there are not many people in the bookstore this morning, otherwise, your precious daughter would have to help mop the floor!"
Dai Yuni smiled and said to Yang Qian.
It’s true. On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, most people go to parks, zoos, or shopping malls. How can anyone come to a bookstore?
Of course, there are a few of them, but they all seem to be book-lovers and somewhat socially fearful. They keep their heads down and hide behind the bookshelves to pick out books and read them. They don’t want to interact with others at all - so it’s impossible to run away.
Go and identify Yang Qian and Dai Yuni.
"Don't say that, other waiters still mopped the floor to be spotless. Look at the reflection, how pretty it is?"
Yang Qian also smiled.
It wasn't until Yang Xiaozhao hummed that Yang Qian knelt down to see what the little guy wanted.
"Hmm? Hmm?"
The little girl glanced at her father, her pursed little mouth didn't look like she wanted to speak, she simply made a sound through her nose, and then with a serious expression, she used her fleshy little palm to breathe into the face of the giant panda in the book.
superior.
"Hahaha, you mean this book also has giant pandas in it, right?"
Yang Qian understood it as soon as he saw it!
