Night economy" is a Chinese way to make the night lively and dynamic. Since its birth, the new economic pattern, which aims to increase domestic demand and spur consumption in China, has gained popularity nationwide amid the on-going Covid-19 pandemic. 

Therefore, Yunnan province has released a policy to promote night economy in April this year. These days, we have some special reports on the new phenomenon of night economy. Today, let's take a look at some night study activities in Yunnan.

Reading party in Xinhua Bookstore

At 8:00 p.m., a reading party jointly held by the Xinhua Bookstore and the Fandeng app book club is going on in the 28 Xinhua Bookstore branches around Kunming, capital city of Yunnan.

Xinhua Bookstore is one of the city's cultural landmarks. The bookstore has been working hard to facilitate reading, and they hope to achieve both social and economic benefits. 

The bookstore plans to launch live broadcast activities in the busy areas of Kunming in the future, sharing knowledge in varied channels. And then they plan to hold more activities with other institutions to promote night reading.
