A "Flash" bookstore, the Sinan Concept Bookstore, has opened for readers in Shanghai on Nov 5, 2017, reports thepaper.cn.
The concept store will close in 60 days.
The Sinan bookstore measures 30 square meters with more than 3,000 books.
Sixty different writers are going to be invited to speak at the store from 4pm to 8pm each day.
"I attended the Sinan Literature Reading Club. I feel like I have to 'punch in' the flash shop. The idea to invite different writers in the shop is fantastic and it makes literature more attractive," said a student from Fudan University who attended the opening.
The Sinan Bookstore has been launched to promote the building of cultural content and to express Shanghai's past.
