As the entity for unified operation of commercial properties along Huaihai Middle Road, the platform will concentrate advantageous resources, update business layout, promote the landing of more new brands and projects, and accelerate the construction of the four major theme areas.

Adjusting and upgrading the main focus on "youthfulness"

In recent years, the Huaihai Middle Road commercial district has undergone frequent adjustments. Affected by the market, some brands have entered and exited on Huaihai Middle Road, but it has also cultivated and attracted some commercial brands and projects, and established a foothold on Huaihai Middle Road.

The middle section of Huaihai Middle Road was originally the least attractive to young people. But now this situation has changed. Three years ago, TX Huaihai Youth Power Center settled in the middle section. Its original location was Huating Isetan, a high-end department store. After the decline of the traditional department store industry, it was successively replaced by major stores such as Best Buy and Wanda Plaza, but their operations were dismal. After the opening of the TX Huaihai Youth Power Center, the commercial space was redefined with the concept of "curatorial retail". Through frequent invitations to artists, designers, and influential public figures, a large number of exhibitions, lectures, and other community activities were held to create topics and stories to attract and gather young people.

Nowadays, two long queues often appear in the middle section of Huaihai Middle Road. One is the queue in front of the time-honored Guangming Estate Hotel to buy cooked food and fresh meat mooncakes, and the other is the queue at the entrance of the TX Huaihai Youth Power Center to come to the mall to watch exhibitions or purchase new products, all young people. "The TX Huaihai Youth Power Center is an important node in the middle section of Huaihai Middle Road, attracting young people to return to Huaihai Road." The relevant person in charge of the Huangpu District Commerce Commission told reporters that research data shows that the TX Huaihai Youth Power Center has significantly driven passenger flow in the area.

In just two months, it attracted a total of over 60000 people to check in.

However, his heart is steadfast: the "Warm New Nest" new employment group service station in front of the Zhaofeng Square in Zhongshan Park is a harbor for him and his colleagues to shelter from wind and rain throughout the year, regardless of the extreme cold or heat.
