Bai Feng was the boss of Ji'nan Sanlian bookstore. In 1994, a Book of academic books was difficult to seek. With the encouragement of friends, the white front took over the scholar's book house from Yang Shousen and others, and managed the Ji'nan distribution shop of the Sanlian bookstore, trying to change the situation of the scarcity of academic books.
"triple bookstore can be said to be the first private bookshop selling academic books in Ji'nan." Bai Feng recalled that the opening of the bookstore made many readers of Quancheng excited. CCTV's "Oriental time and space" column also produced special films for this purpose. "A teacher from Song Shan even came there three times a day. I asked him if he had anything to do. After opening the shop, Bai Feng always insisted on choosing his own book. "Every book has to be picked up by itself, picking up nutritious books and choosing the best version for readers." Bai Feng said that the Ji'nan Sanlian bookstore has done a lot of stupid things, such as old books from a publishing house, and sold at the original price of a few cents, such as insisting on not selling best sellers, refusing to succeed, and choosing only a book with lasting value.
according to Bai Feng, the bookstore has been running well in the 10 years from 1995 to 2005, but the rent is rising, and the impact of Internet and piracy, the bookstore is beginning to decline. "Bookstore is a kind of human landscape, it is gathering gas, its influence on the city is imperceptible, not to be seen at the moment. But when a child grows into a 30 year old adult, the influence of bookstores can be seen, because its role will be shown in the future. Bai Feng said that the decision to close down the Ji'nan Sanlian bookstore was desolate, but it was inevitable because of debt. "Now I often dream that I am still running a bookstore."
