Chengdu sells ancient books

There is a book shopping center in Chengdu in Gaoshengqiao, Wuhou District, which is called Chengdu Book Shopping Center. It is the largest bookstore in the three southwestern provinces, affiliated to Xinhua Wenxuan Group, formerly known as Xinhua Bookstore.

The book shopping center has more than 4 floors up and down, and there are 6,543,800 books for a long time. When I was in college, it was already very famous. I remember that it was established at the same time as Southwest Bookstore. It is said that more than 300 private bookstores in Chengdu closed down within one year. On the one hand, it shows the power of modern commercial system and the deterrent power of large enterprise groups, on the other hand, it is also a sorrow of cultural civilization.

At that time, I often went to read books and had activities on holidays and weekends. I remember a weekend just after working, Li Ao's daughter Wen Li held a book signing activity of "I scolded Li Ao", which was quite interesting. I still remember that once the author of "Ghost Blowing Lights" signed a book for sale, and the scene was quite hot. Later, because of work and time and energy, I didn't go to see it much, and I didn't watch it for several years.

Until last year, because of the epidemic, there was really nowhere to go, and I went to the book shopping center several times. It's also convenient to go by subway. I often go to the nearby cultural relics market (Roman Holiday Square) and occasionally pass by here, so I always climb the stairs. This also reminds me of more than ten years ago. After I went there, I suddenly realized that the bookstore was still doing very well and showed extraordinary vitality, which I didn't expect, so I was very happy.

Not long ago, I went to its third floor for a sale of calligraphy and painting. Its luxurious environment and numerous books are dazzling. After paying attention to its calligraphy, there are thousands of books. I still feel very comfortable going again this time, and the calligraphy supplies next to me are also good. I remember there used to be a little bit of that kind of water book cloth suit and some writing brushes. But I didn't expect that there were many brushes and inkstones besides several sets of water-writing cloths this time. These days, I suddenly became interested in hand-grinding ink and cared about the available inkstones. Therefore, what I see here are Guangdong inkstone, She Yan inkstone and Cheng Ni inkstone. Although it is not necessarily good or expensive, it is beautiful after all, which is also a surprise.

Then it has more seats, which can fully meet the needs of dozens of people. This is also a good point, but also pay more attention to the reader's reading experience. Not as disgusting as some Wenxuan shops. Otherwise, it is placed at the bottom of the ground, so that you can't see it on your knees. Otherwise, put it where people over 2 meters can see it. Very irritating. Besides, it's a better place. The books are in the cupboard and easy to read. We saw another surprise, that is, in a room next to calligraphy, it was actually Chengdu Ancient Books Bookstore. There are many ancient books in it, and many old books are sold, which is surprising. Although most of them are worthless, some rare books are too expensive, tens of thousands. Basically, the form is greater than the content, but it feels warm, so this is a good aspect.

Going to this book paradise once is really comfortable, with elegant environment, many books and professionalism. I think this is the best place for calligraphy in the three southwestern provinces. Therefore, I would like to recommend to you that we have a warm winter sunshine meeting in that wonderful place. Ok, thank you for your attention.
