[Explanation] At the subway entrance and office building, the simple decoration and quiet environment. On May 29, stepping into a paid study room in Changcheng District, Nanjiang, Jiangxi, across the front desk, there was a reading area and a two-person bar. The former customer from Xi is devoting herself to reading the book. The tall buildings and the prosperity of the city outside the window in front of her have no effect on her.
Under the leadership of Wan Feng, a partner of the self-study room, the invisible door set on the wall was opened. It was a world, with rows of partitions, a one-meter-wide desk, and a voice-activated light that could be opened by scanning the code, forming a In a relatively independent space, people who come to learn about "charging" are immersed in their own world, and have not noticed the reporter who is filming.
According to Wan Feng, he had the idea of creating such a self-study room because of his own personal experience in the second half of last year.

There are some pain points. I was a family for many years, and then I had the idea of taking an exam. When I wanted to improve myself, I faced some problems, that is, where to go to find a quiet environment to read. In terms of home, there are still many interference factors.
Therefore, Wan Feng and his friends began to choose sites, decorate, develop systems, and purchase facilities, and invested a lot of effort in the construction of self-study rooms. However, due to the epidemic situation, they were officially opened after May 1st, and their popularity and attendance are still quite satisfactory. But Wan Feng said that they did not do this completely from a commercial perspective.

After leaving school, there is no such a good learning environment, and the effect of studying at home will indeed not achieve the effect that I want, and the efficiency is relatively low.

I think the future development, including this epidemic, will greatly promote the willingness of everyone to improve themselves, and the formation of the format will be further improved with the development of this thing.
In a telephone interview with reporters, Tu Longfeng, deputy director of the Institute of Sociology of the Jiangxi Academy of Social Sciences, said that the emergence of paid self-study rooms actually compensated for the deficiencies in urban planning, design and construction to a certain extent, and helped improve the taste of the city.

Our urban community (relevant departments) should give these paid study rooms, for example, in the form of government purchases of services, or exempt from taxes and fees, to reduce their operating costs because it actually improves the taste of the entire city Is beneficial. If it is to become a phenomenon, then there must be a full set of business models including how to connect upstream and downstream.
