The night economy refers to the economic activities of the service industry from 18:00 on the same day to 2:00 a.m. on the next day, and the development of the "night economy" is a powerful measure to enhance the city's consumer demand, and to promote the adjustment of the industrial structure.

The night economy has been selected as one of the top ten new words in the Chinese media in 2019 by the China National Language Monitoring and Research Center (CNLMRC) in December.

At the beginning of the night, when the clock of the Erqi Tower in Zhengzhou's Erqi Square strikes 18:00, groups of people flock to this area, and the busiest and most lively business district in downtown Zhengzhou, the Erqi business district, enters into another way of life, which is that the night life has just begun.

Walking through Erqi Square, entering Dehua New Street and coming to Zhengzhou's busiest underground two-storey shopping street, you realize that this is a paradise for young people, dressed in colorful, fashionable clothes, arm in arm, shoulder to shoulder, laughing and joking, and male and female youths, in groups of three to five, either in the store to buy goods, or in the gourmet food store to taste delicious.

After strolling through the Erqi shopping district, came to the University of South Road Night Market Street, where there is no downtown gorgeous lights, but here the lively and bustling is not worse than downtown, nearly 1,000 meters of the street in the middle and on both sides of the stalls, I roughly counted, a variety of flavors of food stalls have dozens of, sitting around in twos and threes, enjoying the empty night time.

From Zhoukou City, Xiangcheng Li told the author, 15 years ago, she and her husband a piece of Zhongyuan Road (Zhengzhou University) to Zhou Village night market food stalls, less than three years, after the purchase of a house in Zhengzhou, the hands of a bit of a savings, and then Zhengzhou health outlawed the night market stalls, return home to take their children to school,

This year, after the Spring Festival, the news that Zhengzhou open night market stalls, two children are going to college, but also to the city of Zhengzhou, the city of Zhengzhou. Two children have gone to college, and do not need to take care of, so from the Xiangcheng hometown back to Zhengzhou and did the old night market stalls, night market stalls, although some of the bitter and tired, as long as they earn money is also happy to do a few more years to see if you can buy a suite in Zhengzhou again.

Li from Xinyang Gushi County countryside rural, after graduating from college, after the election in Zhengzhou opened a cell phone store and other business, a few years down, not only did not earn money, but also owed a butt of debt, in 2019, the small mouth in the University Road, Erqi Wanda Plaza, near the 8th floor rented two rooms to open a fast-food restaurant, this year, after the Spring Festival, due to the impact of the epidemic is not at all business, in the small mouth is ready to turn off the fast-food restaurant to find another way. Fast-food restaurant to find another way, Zhengzhou resumed the night economy, to dine more people, the two smacked the room is too small.

The night economy, is one of the development of modern urban business, evening shopping, dining, tourism, entertainment, film and television, leisure and other night consumption, whether it is the night drink, night meal, or night shopping, night singing, night consumption almost covers the business, transportation, catering, tourism, entertainment and other industries.

A city, no matter how large its area, no matter how high its buildings, no matter how busy it is during the day, no matter how gorgeous its lights at night, if it is not popular in the market (street), a dead air, the city is still called the city? This city has the vigor?

Night Shanghai, night Shanghai, you are a city that never sleeps; lights up, the sound of cars, singing and dancing; only see her, smiling face to welcome, who knows her heart bitter; night life, all for the sake of clothing, food, housing and transportation; wine is not drunk, people from drunk ...... change a new world, don't have a new environment: recall the night life, such as the first awakening of the dream. This song is a true portrayal of the 20's and 30's Shanghai "night economy", the achievement of Shanghai's status as a world metropolis.

The development of urban night economy, but also to the city management has brought a series of problems, littering, dirty, environmental health problems, night market street food stalls food hygiene problems, product quality and other issues, how to solve these problems? Test the management level of city managers.

The development of the night economy, the city into a night city, in order to make the city vibrant.
