Talk about the world, there are "shells" coming. Between the light and shadow, Fang Xiao was cold and warm. Hello everyone, I'm Brother Tianbei ~
Nowadays, the rhythm of people's lives is like riding a fast horse, the pressure of work, the burden of the family, the care of the elderly and children, these are like invisible whips, waging tired horses, urging us to be faster, faster.
Paper books seem to be a bit out of step in this era of ubiquitous electronic devices, and with it is the boom of e-books and audiobooks.
People seem to be more willing to put on headphones, take out mobile phones and pads, move their fingers, and scratch the screen, rather than sink their hearts, turn pages one by one, and indulge in the fragrance of ink and paper.
Therefore, the survival situation of physical bookstores has also suffered a huge impact, and various physical bookstores are seeking innovative development that highlights their own characteristics.
The second episode of the documentary series "Book Fans" is about the different scenery of the three bookstores and the original love of book lovers. These bookstores are hidden in a bustling city, and if we don't slow down a bit, they will pass us by.

In Kunming, Yunnan, the Wheat Field Bookstore in Ma li opens around noon every day. This is a habit he has maintained for many years, and it is also a spontaneous and natural business philosophy.
He was inspired and influenced by the Beijing Ark Bookstore and came up with the idea of opening a bookstore of his own.
In 2000, he made an important change in his life, and he began a long companionship journey with the bookstore.
Ma Li likes to arrange books according to his own ideas, although not arranged by category and classification number, he can still find exactly the books that guests need in a matter of seconds, which is the result of his personal efforts.
His business idea is to make the bookstore always full of cultural temperature and humanistic care. The relationship between the owner of the bookstore and the book buyer, the book buyer and the book buyer, as well as the book lover and the book lover can be harmonious and warm.
Let everyone find their own resonance and identity with themselves, themselves and others, and their own books in this small bookstore. This is the concept that Ma Li has always adhered to, and it is also the main reason why Maitian Bookstore can become the "best small shop in the country".
When the bookstore is not open, he and his band partners will swim in the rock world, using drums to beat the hymn of life, and make life loud and dazzling.
Bookstore and rock, real life and the ideal world, in the wheat field bookstore and horsepower here, achieved both.

Nanjing Pioneer Bookstore, can you imagine that this is a bookstore transformed from an underground parking lot of more than 4,000 square meters?
It was once voted by the BBC as one of the "Top 10 Most Beautiful Bookstores in the World".
Qian Xiaohua, the founder of Pioneer Bookstore, opened the bookstore with the original intention of loving books. He has been exploring the transformation and development of physical bookstores.
He believes that China's physical bookstores are in a "period of creative transformation", so he wants to make a creative attempt to open bookstores to the countryside.
In the ancient village of Yixian County, Anhui, the Bishan Bookstore was converted from the ancestral hall of this village. In the past, it was the clan cultural center of the whole village, and now it has become the intellectual and cultural center of the whole village.
At first, Qian Xiaohua's move to open a bookstore in the countryside was questioned by locals. But he never gave up on his ideas. In order for the Bishan Bookstore to operate for a long time and smoothly, he invited the director of the old village committee to help run the bookstore.
In 2014, Bishan Bookstore, which retains the unique heritage of Huipai architecture, was officially opened. Soon, it became the favorite place for the whole village to come. It's not so much a bookstore as it is a public good library.
Villagers always come here after tea and dinner to read books and rub nets, and the old village committee chairman never throws them away because the villagers don't buy books.
In any case, this kind of spiritual and cultural place, which is extremely rare in the countryside, is more or less changing the daily life habits and lifestyles of the villagers, and more people have unconsciously stepped into the vast and profound spiritual world created by books.
Qian Xiaohua understands that what the rural areas need is culture, and it is necessary to use cultural self-confidence and spiritual strength to lead the rejuvenation and development of the countryside. His Pioneer Bookstore is an inexhaustible driving force for exploring the cultural spirit with avant-garde ideas.
What he wants to do is not to create profits, but to create readers, so that the value and power of culture can shine in the cities and spread in the countryside.
A bookstore can not always take its own survival as the main goal, but to focus on the future development, but also return to the essence of the cultural carrier, with the original intention to operate, with culture to inherit, with love to adhere.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="48" > bookstore with feelings, niche but also exquisite</h1>
In Beijing's Yangmeizhu Street, there is a bookstore called Model Bookstore. This is the living room of Jiang Xun's book friends, and it is a testing ground for him to obsess over book collection and explore the development of bookstores.
Over the years, he has developed the habit of collecting, not only collecting more than 100,000 books, including a large number of line-bound books and famous signature books.
His love and obsession with line-bound books also led him to focus on collecting engravings. He will use the collected engravings to collect fonts, and then reproduce many engraved books, and will also help writers to produce exquisite engraved books, so that this craft and culture in traditional Chinese culture can be revitalized.
Although model books are niche books, they contain the feelings and dreams of shopkeepers.
Here, many people have found the books they loved as children and have also recovered the beautiful memories. Every old book has its own rich experiences and stories, and it also has the memories of book lovers and the treasures of book collectors.
The bookstore is the spiritual living room in the modern city that is gradually forgotten but should not be forgotten, and the bookstore is also the most scarce and needed spiritual yearning in the countryside.
A bookstore may not always be crowded and crowded, but it should have temperature, heritage, and feelings. Their presence seems to remind us that slowing down, picking up heavy books, turning to the next page, and the pace of life can also be slowed down.
More importantly, look slowly, turn the page after page, let the mentality slow down, let the emotions stabilize, let the impetuousness sink.
