This is Zhou Yuna's own agreement to herself, although she is not the pride of the sky, but as the school flower of the thirteenth middle school, she also has her own dignity, she will not let her sensibility control her rationality, and now this school transfer can be regarded as giving herself a chance to calm down.

"It's true that I thought too much before, but Wu Ling, can you promise me one last thing?" Zhou Yuna said.

"What's the matter? Go ahead! Wu Ling did not refuse.

"In the evening, a few classmates are going to Feifeng and see me off, can you also come over together at night?" Zhou Yuna asked expectantly.

"Flying Phoenix!" Hearing this, Wu Ling couldn't help frowning slightly, as a Yulan person, he is not too unfamiliar with Feifeng, this is a relatively high-end entertainment city in the mid-range of Yulan. It is dominated by hotels, kTV, and of course, the most famous is the Feifeng Bar.

Wu Ling has never had a good impression of bars, or he doesn't have a good impression of bars in Huaguo. Of course, it doesn't mean that bars are the other party hiding dirt and dirt, compared to many places, bars are still relatively simple.

But after all, the bar is a mixed place, and no matter whether it is in the previous life or this life, Wu Ling's personality is more quiet, so he naturally has no good impression of the bar. Of course, he also knows that in an increasingly fast-paced city, bars have become the best place for white-collar workers to release stress.

When it comes to the history of bars, we have to start with the word "bar". Perhaps through the archaeology of the knowledge of the word, it is possible to catch some of the historical aspects of the bar. The original meaning of "bar" is a table made of wood, metal or other material that exceeds its width in length. The word "bar" in Chinese is a unique Chinese-English term. Because, the bar is the stage. That's it. As the name suggests, a bar is also a counter where alcohol is sold.

So. How did the long counter that sells wine enter the tavern and become the protagonist of the tavern? In the process of taking the place of the host, the "bar" successfully performed a standout show on the stage of the tavern. It allows the meaning of "bar" to gradually extend beyond the narrow confines of the counter to a space, a place, or a structure and function. Today, when we mention "bar", we almost no longer have the meaning of the original platform, but mainly refer to a house, a space, and a place. "Bar" so began to swagger in the streets and alleys of the city. With the expansion and extension of the meaning of "bar", new sentence-forming words such as Di bar, Internet café, chat bar, pottery bar, and tea bar have appeared. The show not only made the "bar" a trespasser of the tavern, but also extended the "bar" from the tavern to a broader urban stage space.

We know. The owner of the bar, the tavern, has a long history in both the West and the East. As a public consumption place for the common people, tables, chairs and benches are necessary, but the bar or counter is dispensable. Today, we also often frequented taverns that don't have a bar or counter. What intrigues us is how the bar enters the tavern and becomes the protagonist. Although the bar has gradually taken a prominent place in the tavern, compared to the restaurant or shop, the "bar" is only a small long table, why can it replace the tavern? Succeed in the position and take advantage of the scenery. This cannot but be said to be a puzzling and interesting question.

A change of title, the popularity of a word, is not enough to analyze it only from the functional referent of the language. The changes and popularity of language often reflect the changes of fashion life, indicating that the current life attitude, value orientation, and behavior mode have changed. Leather. People called each other "comrades" in the life era. Initially, it is limited to the same group, organization, government. The party may be a person who pursues a common ideal, and later this term became broad, and people were all referred to as "comrades". It shows that revolution has become the fashion of the times. Say goodbye to leather. life, entering the era of commodity economy. People gradually discarded the old titles and began to address each other as "sir" and "boss". This change in terminology is arguably the best barometer for monitoring the changes of the times.

The replacement of pubs by pubs also reflects some subtle changes in urban life. In order to better grasp the ins and outs of these subtle changes. and the fashion interest implicit in it. The following examination may allow us to capture some of the internal historical reasons for the emergence of the "bar".

The barization of the pub is synchronized with the commercialization of society, it caters to the consumer fashion of the commercial era, and the bar becomes a fashionable consumption space of the commercial era.

Before the 19th century, the production and circulation of commodities were at a low stage of underdevelopment. Small-scale production sustains a subsistence life, with people buying limited necessities from bazaars or shops. Bazaar transactions constitute the general form of commodity exchange.

With the vigorous development of large-scale industrial production and the rise of the metropolis, the rural-style market trade has been difficult to meet the consumer demand of the city, so a new business model has been established in the metropolis, with department stores lined up, comfortable shops, shopping malls that make people linger, and more developed to today's large supermarkets, shopping parks, chain stores and so on. The prosperity and development of shops and shopping malls in the city has made commercialization a popular fashion that has entered people's daily life, and it has become a fashionable label for urban life.

When a fashion is generally popular in society and becomes the goal that people yearn for, yearn for, imitate and pursue, this fashion will exert a kind of magic and release a temptation to make the whole social life enter a state of fashion enchantment. The fashion obsession of society will subtly affect and change people's lifestyles, leaving a clear mark on behavior, language, concepts and other aspects.

American social historian Andrew? Barr writes in his book "Drinking" that before the 19th century, taverns were distinguished from private homes only by a sign on the door. The interior of the tavern is relatively simple, and it is generally divided into a common business room, a bar, a kitchen, and a private space.

Guests visit the tavern mainly in the public business room, which is the only place where tables and chairs are filled. At that time, the bar only had a relatively simple function of payment, bookkeeping, and collection, and was not a space for customers to drink alcohol. In the 20s of the 19th century, the business of the metropolis has developed more prosperously, especially the retail revolution has had a revolutionary impact on the consumer life of the metropolis, and leads the fashion of urban consumer life.

Shops have become a fashionable space in the city, and shopping in stores has become an important part of citizens' fashion life. This shopping fashion of visiting the shops still retains its freshness today. In the face of urban fashion trends, the already humble tavern became more and more out of place. In order to catch up with the fashion trend, cater to the consumption interests of the public, and change the outdated image, the operators and designers of pubs began to look to the store for inspiration, imitating the style of the mobile commercial counter.

The dazzling shop style gradually influenced the design style of the hotel, especially the dazzling array of commercial counters, which directly affected the design of the pub's bar, so that the bar counter entered the public activity space from an inconspicuous corner. Coupled with the use of lighting equipment and glassware, the bar counter becomes a very dazzling commercial counter, and the tavern echoes with the commercial fashion style of the metropolis, and integrates with the commercial consumption fashion of the metropolis, becoming an important scene and landscape of the commercial consumption life of the metropolis.

Since then, the bar has become something to brag about in pubs, and there are very few bars in the West that do not claim to have a long bar when they open, and there are often media advertisements telling people where there is the longest bar in the local, local or even national area. After the change of commercial fashion, the tavern has evolved into a fashionable public space with a strong commercial atmosphere in the baptism of commercial consumption fashion in the metropolis. Gradually, people began to call pubs, and bars slowly replaced taverns and became places of leisure and consumption with unique functions. In this way, the barization of the tavern is also the commercial counter of the tavern, and the department store of the tavern, which introduces the consumer fashion style of the commercial era into the old and simple tavern, making it a beautiful window for the metropolis to display commercial fashion.

Today, the bar still occupies a prominent place in the bar and is still the most striking part of the bar space. A high, well-designed counter with a beer machine on the countertop. The soft lighting shines on the bar, and there is a wide variety of different brands of wine, all of which exude an intoxicating luster. The hanging glass wine glasses reflect the blurry light and shadow, and there is a beautiful bar girl standing in the light and shadow, which can't help but make people drunk all of a sudden. If you don't get drunk, everyone gets drunk, and that's the charm of the bar. Around the charm of the bar, people gradually like to sit around the bar to drink, not only is it very convenient to order a drink, but also to chat with the bar. In order to meet the needs of the guests, the bar stool unique to the bar was designed, and the bar became a public space for drinking.

Some bars also have special barmaids in the bar to accompany the guests to drink and chat, which makes drinking at the bar add a lot of temptation, so far, the charm of the bar is almost to the point of incisiveness. Behind this charm is the immersion of commercial fashion in the metropolis, the implantation of shop counter window style, and the fashion fashion of the lifestyle in the era of commercial consumption. To conform to it and to cater to it means to change from servant to master, from subordinate to subject, from secondary to prominent. The charm of the bar shows the magic of commercial fashion.

Another reason why the pub stands out in favor of the tavern in the midst of commercial fashion is the crude and humble history of the tavern itself. The prevalence of one allegation while the other was superseded or eliminated indicates that the superseded and eliminated have become obsolete. In the West, taverns are such a laggard.
