After Li Zhongxin was woken up by the alarm clock in the morning, he realized that he had almost slept and stood up, so he quickly got up and washed up.

As soon as he got up and finished cleaning up, he saw his parents walking over from there and Feng Banshan.

"Zhongxin! What are you still rushing to? Take the time to set off. It's too late to get to Tiananmen Square and you can't see the flag raising." Li Shangyong immediately said unhappy to Li Zhongxin when he saw that Li Zhongxin had not yet gone out of the room.

Li Shangyong and Wang Yaqing have always been accustomed to going to bed early and getting up early. Basically, it is like this at all times. Although Li Zhongxin also likes to get up early, he was really tired after taking the train for nearly ten hours yesterday. Seeing that his parents and Feng Banshan are just like nothing, Li Zhongxin felt even more at this time, why did I exercise every day after I was reborn? Why are my physical fitness as good as my parents and Feng Banshan?

At around six o'clock, Li Zhongxin and his friends arrived at Tiananmen Square and began to wait for the flag to raise.

Li Zhongxin likes to watch the flag-raising ceremony very much. He always has a feeling that once he watches the flag-raising, he will have more patriotic hearts. Looking at the flag-raising more is also a kind of purification and inspiration for people's hearts.

An anxious waiting is always the most tormenting. Although it is only six o'clock and there are more than 40 minutes left to start the flag-raising ceremony, and the square is already crowded.

The sky began to shine slightly, slowly a little blue, and then a little colorful cloud appeared.

At this time, Li Zhongxin began to hear people shouting around him that the guard of honor had come out. Li Zhongxin went to see it with no confidence because he had seen the flag raising several times, and knew in his heart that even if the guard of honor came out, it was far away from them. It can be said that even if he stretched his head, he couldn't see it clearly.

Two or three minutes later, Li Zhongxin and his parents saw soldiers in a well-equipped uniformed guard of honor. The soldiers were neatly posed and had a very majestic feeling!

The exciting flag-raising ceremony began! After the national anthem sounded, it was the same every time. The people in the front row consciously removed their hats, and the people in the back row stood on tiptoe, and everyone was afraid of missing any details.

After watching the flag-raising ceremony, Li Zhongxin led his parents to Qianmen for some authentic breakfast. He followed his mother's idea and did not go to the Forbidden City, but followed Qianmen Street to Wangfujing.

Wangfujing Street is a historic street, which is very traditional and quaint, living in a bustling and downtown, but it is very fashionable and avant-garde.

On this street, it embraces ancient business civilization and has established many time-honored Chinese brands that are famous all over the world. This street absorbs foreign Western culture and gathers many well-known brands from world-renowned multinational companies.

This street is also a place frequented by leaders of Chinese and foreign countries, rich people, luxury consumer goods and famous time-honored brands, allowing wealthy people to choose to buy, while ordinary people and foreign tourists shuttle through it and like to stay, and can buy various ordinary products that live at home.

On this street, you can feel the ancient ones that change with the years, and the vicissitudes of life and the trends are emerging. Following the speed of the times, you will show off your style more and more.

It is precisely because of its truly brilliant historical rings that it has enough qualifications to be proud of, which is the status of Wangfujing Street in Beijing in Beijing.

Li Zhongxin and his friends walked around Wangfujing Street for a while, browsing around, checking out this time-honored brand, buying some things, looking at the time-honored brand, and buying some food.

As I walked, I arrived at Wangfujing Department Store in Beijing. This Wangfujing Department Store is a department store with many stories. The predecessor of this shopping mall was the Jingcheng Department Store, which is known as the first store in New China.

Li Zhongxin conducted an investigation and knew that, as the first large department store in New China invested and built by the state, the Beijing Department Store assumed the responsibility of stabilizing prices and stabilizing the market in the early stages of its establishment.

In 1955, the Jingcheng Department Store was officially opened. The department store is located on Wangfujing Street with a business area of ​​18,000 square meters. On the day of its opening, the passenger flow reached an astonishing 164,000 people.

In that era, Wangfujing Department Store had unique treatment: the capital was supported nationwide and the capital priority building.

At that time, Wangfujing Department Store was the only retail enterprise in Beijing that made an exception to enjoy the right to purchase goods nationwide and enjoyed the treatment of a second-level wholesale station. It could directly purchase goods from first-level wholesale stations in major cities such as Tianjin, Shanghai, and Guangzhou at preferential prices.

It is also because of this that a popular saying in Beijing at that time: You should not go anywhere if you can’t buy something in department stores. The goods are abundant and the prices are fair, which makes queuing up and buying has become the norm for department stores. There were many counters in the mall to set up guardrails to prevent crowded customers from squeezing the counters.

For a long time after the founding of China, Wangfujing Department Store was a very profitable shopping mall. It can be said that among several large department stores in China, Wangfujing Department Store can definitely enter it.

In 1977, Bing Xin's "Song of the Spirit of a Bunch of Fire" was published in "People's Literature". The protagonist was Zhang Binggui, a salesperson selling candy in Beijing Department Store.

Zhang Binggui has developed a surprisingly accurate and clear-cut skill in his ordinary salesperson position, and warms every customer with a fire-like service spirit.

Zhang Binggui became a model for serving the people in the early days of the reform and opening up of New China. It is precisely for this reason that Zhang Binggui's statue has stood at Wangfujing Department Store until now.

By the 1990s, the business in Beijing showed an amazing development momentum, and the pattern of state-owned business conquering the world was broken, and high-end shopping malls such as urban and rural trade centers, Yansha, and Landao were opened one after another.

Under this situation, the department store began to seek rebirth. The joint-stock transformation in 1993 made the department store become what Wangfujing department store is today.

Li Zhongxin looked at the crowds on Wangfujing Street and felt the bustling of Wangfujing Department Store, and he couldn't help but sigh.

Li Zhongxin felt that the several department stores in Beijing could definitely be said to be in the background. Even if the things in Wangfujing Department Store are more expensive than the things in Zhongxin Comprehensive Shopping Mall, the buyers will definitely not be less than those in Zhongxin Comprehensive Shopping Mall. This is something that is worse than those in Zhongxin Comprehensive Shopping Mall.
