Pedestrian streets in China are very common in later generations. Not to mention first-tier cities, even third-tier cities will have commercial pedestrian streets.

But in the early 1990s, there was no real commercial pedestrian street in China.

After the spring of 1992, domestic business started a thunderous model, and reforms in various places took great steps.

It is understandable that most people don’t know about pedestrian streets.

But in Wang Lin's impression, Zhou Hanmin was a very enlightened person and a well-informed person. He didn't even know about the pedestrian street?

Wang Lin had to organize language and try to explain the concept of commercial pedestrian streets.

The so-called pedestrian street refers to a commercial district that is set up in the central area of ​​the city with concentrated traffic and gradually formed.

In principle, car traffic is excluded, parking lots are set up around it, which is a priority activity area for pedestrians. Hiking streets and hiking shopping streets have the same meaning, which can be called pedestrian streets. Pedestrian streets are urban pedestrian systems, part of which is to revitalize the old districts and restore the city.

A method of urban construction adopted to protect traditional neighborhoods.

This concept explanation made Zhou Hanmin confused.

Zhou Hanmin asked: "Why should I set up such a pedestrian area? What's the point?"

Wang Lindao: "The road section in the center of the city is very prosperous, with many commercial buildings on both sides. Pedestrians are dense, while the road is relatively narrow. Pedestrians cross the road frequently, and there are great dangers of traffic accidents. In order to avoid pedestrians, vehicles will slow down their driving speed.

, People and vehicles compete for the road. After being converted into a pedestrian street, it can attract more residents and tourists. Prosper this section and add value to the local area, especially the pavement facing the street."

Zhou Hanmin said: "Wang Lin, I roughly understand the model you mentioned. As you said, due to the concentration of pedestrian street businesses, it has attracted a large number of customers, and the turnover of street shops near the pedestrian zone has decreased. Will it be

Impair the interests of these shops? In addition, if the pedestrian streets are not allowed to pass, will the traffic management of the area fall into chaos? This will cause the streets around the pedestrian street to operate overload and cause greater traffic chaos?"

Wang Lin said: "Leader, there has been a commercial pedestrian street operation model abroad. This model has become very mature. The emergence of this pedestrian street can enhance the economic development of a business district."

He talked freely and briefly talked about the development history of the commercial pedestrian street.

To convince the older generation, more energy and price must be paid.

Because the older generation is relatively more conservative and cautious.

Western pedestrian commercial streets first appeared in Germany, Europe.

In 1926, based on the former industrial compact urban structure and high residential population density, motor vehicles were prohibited from passing on Linbeck Street. In 1930, Linbeck Street was built as a boulevard and made this business model acquire.

Great success has become the prototype of a modern pedestrian commercial street.

Modern pedestrian commercial streets in the West emerged after the 1960s. Many cities in Europe and the United States faced a series of difficult problems such as chaos in traffic order, declining air quality, severe environmental pollution, and reduced pedestrian safety. The city center area was subject to suburban shopping.

Fierce competition in the center leads to the decline of commercial functions and the decline of attractiveness.

To solve these problems, people imitated the construction of pedestrian commercial streets in early Europe to restore the prosperity of the urban central area and solve a series of problems related to it. As a result, various countries set off a climax of the construction of pedestrian commercial streets. For example, Munich and Bonn, Germany;

Paris, Lyon, France; London, England; San Francisco, the United States; Toronto, Montreal, Canada and other cities have built pedestrian commercial districts, and all achieved the expected results.

The Champs Elysees in Paris, the Broadway in New York, and the Ginza in Tokyo are all world-famous pedestrian commercial streets. The Konigoff Street in Stuttgart, Germany, is called "the paradise for pedestrians". The pedestrian street has been

Become a beautiful landscape and business card for urban development.

Wang Lin said excitedly: "Leader, if you want to build Shencheng into a world-class city and to build Shencheng's economy into a leading city in China, then commercial pedestrian streets are indispensable. There is no city in China that has set up commercial pedestrian streets, we are now starting

If you do it, you can go to the forefront of the country and create a new trend in domestic business development.”

Zhou Hanmin pondered silently, and he also had his concerns.

The first person to eat crabs usually goes to two extremes, may be successfully praised, or may become a laughing stock that has been left with a stinky stinky for a hundred years.

Wang Lin saw Zhou Hanmin's hesitation and said, "Leader, I just heard from you that you may have to retreat to the second line in the next term. Since that's the case, why not give it a try? Perhaps it's not because of this, it's not because of this.

You know!"

Zhou Hanmin was shocked!

He was touched by Wang Lin's words!

Yes, since you have reached this point, why not give it a try?

"Okay!" Zhou Hanmin frowned and suddenly stretched out, saying, "Wang Lin, what better suggestions do you have for building a commercial pedestrian street in Shanghai? Let me tell you it! I want to listen to it in a practical way.

A viable plan!”

Wang Lindao: "Most of the commercial pedestrian streets that are now popular internationally are second-generation pedestrian streets."

"The second generation pedestrian street? Can this commercial street be renewed?"

"Yes, leader. The first-generation pedestrian commercial street only reflects the basic elements of walking in form, and its function is simply to attract customers. Therefore, pure commercial pedestrian streets that simply attract customers have become typical of the first-generation pedestrian commercial streets

feature."

“That is, walk for the sake of walking?”

"Yes, such pedestrian streets will indeed have some adverse consequences. The shortcomings of the leader just mentioned are reflected in the first generation of pedestrian streets. Therefore, the people have transformed the pedestrian commercial streets and produced the second generation.

Commercial pedestrian street.”

"What's the difference between the second generation of commercial pedestrian streets?"

"In addition to continuing the basic elements of the first generation of pedestrian commercial streets, more supporting service facilities such as beautification and decoration, green landscape, colorful pavement, street sculpture, leisure seats, etc. have been added, adding the friendly and pleasant atmosphere of the pedestrian street.

, while meeting shopping needs, people can get rest and enjoy, satisfying the behavioral and spiritual pleasure requirements of walkers, and reflecting their concern for humanities."

"It's interesting! Then do you want to build a second-generation commercial pedestrian street in our city?"

Wang Lin said: "No, I want to build a third-generation commercial pedestrian street!"

Zhou Hanmin said in a daze: "Didn't you say that there is only the second generation in the world? Where did the third generation come from?"

Wang Lin said aloofly: "The third generation pedestrian street was born in our Shencheng!"

Zhou Hanmin couldn't help but straighten his body and threw a cigarette at the same time: "Wang Lin, what's going on with the third generation you mentioned? Did you invent it yourself?"

Wang Lin smiled and said, "Yes, it was invented and created by me. If we want to do it, we must do something unique, whether it is to attract attention or to cause a sensation, we will do it anyway.

Now!"

Zhou Hanmin laughed and said, "You, you just love to mess around and like to do something unique. When everyone was selling treasury bills, you kid was collecting treasury bills. When the Chinese people didn't even know what sanitary napkins were,

But you started selling sanitary napkins, and you were ahead of others in everything."

Wang Lin said: "I am called "Silly Bird Flying First". I have no background, no funds, and no connections. I can only dare to be the first and do things that others have not done yet. If I do this, it is also called giving it a try."

"What a dare to be the first!" Zhou Hanmin said excitedly, "Wang Lin, I really realized that I am indeed a little old! I dare not compete for the first place, and I dare not give it a try! Listen to you

A word is better than reading for ten years!"

Wang Lin said: "Leader, your concerns are different from mine. I have no money anyway. If I succeed, I become a rich man. If I fail, I will be at least working to pay off my debts. But you have to take into account the general trend of economic development in the city."

Zhou Hanmin said: "Tell me what your third-generation commercial pedestrian street looks like?"

Wang Lin said: "Things are all under development, and the commercial form of pedestrian streets is also constantly developing and improving. I have been to Ginza in the East and also to the Champs-Elysees in Paris. I think, the second

There is still a lot of room for improvement in the pedestrian street.”

Seeing that Wang Lin was holding his fingers, but he didn't twitch. He thought he was not bringing fire, so he picked up his match, scratched one, and handed it over.

Wang Lin quickly got up, turned over, and lit the cigarette butt in Zhou Han's hand.

"Leader, in my vision, the third-generation pedestrian commercial street should have undergone great changes in its shape. Underground pedestrian streets, classic buildings and historical relics pedestrian streets and sky bridge pedestrian systems, and even cities are equipped with at both ends of the pedestrian streets.

The square makes the environment of the pedestrian commercial district more pleasant and the functional extension is richer."

"At the same time, many social activities such as exhibitions, public welfare activities, art performances, festival celebrations, tourism, folk culture, sports and fitness are also held in the pedestrian street. People come to the pedestrian street, no longer just shopping, but more

Attracted by the beautiful and pleasant environment and colorful activities, people fully enjoy the fun of interacting between people in a relaxed environment atmosphere, demonstrating the huge social benefits of the pedestrian commercial street.”

"In short, the third-generation pedestrian commercial street will strengthen people's regional identity, make pedestrian commercial street a new symbol of urban commerce, and become a social activity center and a place for people's living. It will make social benefits, environmental benefits and economic benefits three

To achieve organic combination and balanced development in all aspects…”

Wang Lin was so generous and said everything he had said, and he had expressed all his experiences and insights from his later generations.

His consciousness and vision were at least twenty years ahead!

Zhou Hanmin was stunned when he heard this, but was also deeply shocked!

"Wang Lin, we have crossed the first and second generations from scratch and directly advanced to the third generation pedestrian streets? Isn't this too radical?"

"No!" Wang Lin said, "Didn't our country also cross the capitalist society directly from feudal society? This business model has no world patents, so we don't need to buy anyone's orders, nor are we stuck with others.

Do whatever you want!"

Zhou Hanmin smiled slightly: "So, can this be done?"

"You can definitely do it! And you can definitely do it well!" Wang Lin said confidently, "Nanjing Road Commercial Street will become the most prosperous pedestrian street in the future!"

Zhou Hanmin said: "How long will it take to build this article?"

Wang Lin said: "We rely on the existing streets and do not need to start a new job. I will give an order today and a pedestrian street will be born tomorrow!"

Zhou Hanmin grabbed his forehead with his hand and pondered: "I personally agree with your idea and am willing to give it a try. I'm afraid that others will object! The pedestrian street you are talking about is a new thing after all, and traffic will be blocked. In the early stage

If you don’t see the benefits, it will actually affect citizens’ travel. Therefore, there will be a lot of opposition.”

Wang Lin took a strong breath of cigarette, knowing that Zhou Hanmin was worried.

If Zhou Hanmin could become a one-man show, he would not retreat immediately after the expiration.

This kind of game is not something that Wang Lin can participate in. He can only observe his words and expressions and guess a little.
