The property market restricts the purchase of home stores and the business is sluggish

West Fourth Ring yuegezhuang Southbridge, is the capital of the well-known Amoy lamp lights buy land, Bandung foreign exchange, is booming, Octagon Long three lighting the city, were entrenched in the northeast of the bridge, southeast and northwest triangle, quite " "Three-legged" trend. Among them, the Bafanglong Lighting City, which has a 12-year history, was once known as one of the "Big Eight Lighting City in Beijing".

Yesterday afternoon, the reporter came to Bafanglong Lighting City. Looking down from under the bridge, the red signboard is still eye-catching, and you can enter the store through Gate 1. The first two shops on the right hand side are already empty, and there are only empty floors in the closed glass doors. Going further, there are more closed shops, and in a lap, at least 2/3 of the shops have been evacuated. The rest of the stores that are still in operation are all messy. The packed cartons are stacked in the corners, and the high and low shelves are placed in the middle. The only samples left are even covered with special price labels.

"The store will be renovated and will be temporarily closed from April 1." The staff at the front desk said. However, the owner of the B06 store told reporters that this closure is not temporary. "The store is no longer decorated with lights, changed to flowers, birds, insects and fish, and we are asked to move away completely 31 days ago." The owner with a southern accent spoke. Without stopping, I put the lamps on the coffee table one by one in the packing box.

Countdown special clearance sale

Touch table lamp , original price 200 yuan, special price 100 yuan; decorative small table lamp, original price 130 yuan, special price 50 yuan; crystal lamp, original price 800 yuan, special price 200 yuan ... In order to rush to clear the house and move within the three-day countdown, still insisting Stores have hung the "decoration sale" sign in the store, staged a special price war.

Xiao Liu and his wife, who have been in the shop for more than 4 years in Hall 1, are members of the special military. On Wednesday afternoon, the two of them were playing the game "Plant vs. Zombie" while waiting for guests. The reporter saw in the store that most of the goods were packed in the corner of the box, and only 40 or 50 samples were left hanging on the wall, with special price labels attached, and the cheapest lamp sold for only 30 yuan.

"There are three days left." Looking at the desk calendar on the table , the Xiaoliu couple told reporters that at the beginning of March, the Bafanglong store issued a notice that all merchants will not renew their contracts after the contract expires on March 31. If the last day The merchants have not cleaned up the goods, the store will be closed directly from April 1, and the merchants will bear the losses. "So, now I am selling these samples at a loss, and I can't handle them until I finally pull my brain into the warehouse."

Bad business forced to transform

Why did the lighting store, which has been doing business for 12 years, suddenly change its course? In this regard, the Lius' guess is that the store business is not good. "In the three lighting cities in the south bridge area of ​​Yuegezhuang, the Bafanglong itself is relatively weak in popularity, especially since the second half of last year, there have been fewer and fewer guests." In the impression of the two, the business was very special Well, in the past six months, it has been getting worse. "It's all about buying restrictions. Everyone doesn't buy a house anymore. Who else buys lights?"

The words of the store staff also verified the speculation that the bad business forced the transformation. When the reporter found the general office on the second floor as a consultant, the staff said that all the stalls in the store had been booked out, and the rent was 2.5 yuan to 3 yuan per square meter per day, plus a property fee of 0.5 yuan per square meter. After April 1st, new merchants entered the venue for renovation and reopened in June. "Lamps are not easy to do, so we have to transform and change to flowers, birds, insects, fish, antique paintings and calligraphy that are not available in this area, and develop a differentiated market."

Merchants scattered warranty is a problem

"If you don't do this, who should I repair if the lamp I bought is out of order?" In the face of the reporter's question, the merchants all said, "If you haven't decided where to move, you can leave a contact number."

"I was thinking about moving to the opposite side of Bandung Huiyang, but the rent is much more expensive than here, it is 7 yuan per square meter per day, and 10 yuan, which is more than twice that of Bafanglong. My 20 square meters The monthly rent of the store is more than 2,000 yuan. "The owner of the B06 store sighed.

The Xiao Lius also told reporters that they initially planned to find one in Huilong, Bandung, but had not yet finalized it, they had to go around first. "The rent on the opposite side is indeed expensive, but after all, it is close to here, and many merchants are looking for ground nearby, and some have gone far to Shilihe Lighting City."

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the reporter left Bafanglong Lighting City, crossed Yuegezhuang South Bridge, and came to Bandung Huiyang Lighting City. The paid delivery vans are lined up in a row at the west gate of the lighting city. The driver masters are sitting in the car and basking in the sun, taking a nap. An afternoon without business will pass.
