Why were there so many books in bookstores even though they could buy books online?This question involves many factors. The following are some possible explanations:
Consumption habits: Although buying books online has become a trend, in many countries such as China and the United States, people still prefer to find new books and buy books in physical bookstores. In a physical bookstore, users can touch, flip through, and try out books to better understand them. These experiences may not be possible on the Internet.
2. Book supply chain: Although online book purchasing has made books more widely available, there are still many problems in the book supply chain. The production, transportation, and distribution of books required a lot of time and effort, and the supply chain could be affected by various factors such as logistics, inventory, and costs. Therefore, even though online bookstores had become mainstream, bookstores still maintained their traditional business model to provide customers with a better shopping experience.
3. The cultural value of books: Books are not only commodities, but also cultural products. The value and significance of books vary in different cultures. For some people, buying books is a way to pursue knowledge and culture, while for others, buying books is a way to inherit and pass on culture. Therefore, even though online bookstores have become a trend, bookstores still play an important role. They not only provide customers with book purchasing services, but also provide a platform for cultural experience and exchange.
4. Bookstore brand: Bookstores are a business model with brand and reputation. These brands and reputation can be reflected in various aspects such as the quality of books, service, and user experience. Although buying books online could make it easier to sell books, the brand and reputation of bookstores could not be replaced. Therefore, bookstores still needed to maintain the existence of physical stores to provide better brands and services.

Why were many city boys unwilling to date rural girls?This question involves many factors. The following are some possible reasons:
1. Cultural and lifestyle differences: The culture, lifestyle, and values of urban and rural areas may be very different. City boys may prefer the lifestyle and cultural background of city girls while rural girls may prefer the lifestyle and cultural background of city boys. This difference could lead to difficulties in communication and understanding, which could lead to emotional breakdown.
2. Disparities in education and occupation levels: There may be differences in education and occupation levels between urban boys and rural girls. City girls may receive higher quality education and have higher professional standards, so they may have higher jobs and salaries than rural girls. This gap could lead to economic imbalance between the two parties and lead to the breakdown of their relationship.
3. The differences in family values and family backgrounds: rural girls may have more family values and family backgrounds. They may pay more attention to family and kinship relationships, while urban girls may pay more attention to personal development and interpersonal relationships. This difference might lead to differences in the views and needs of both parties in certain aspects, resulting in the breakdown of their relationship.
4. The difference in social pressures and expectations: City boys may face social pressures and expectations such as family expectations of them, social expectations of relationships between men and women, etc. These expectations might cause pressure and burden on city boys, making them unwilling to take the risk of dating rural girls.
It should be pointed out that these reasons are not independent of each other but interconnected. If a city boy were to fall in love with a rural girl, he would have to face all of the above problems and make a decision on whether to establish a relationship with a rural girl or not.
Why were so many immortals unwilling to enter the Investiture of the Gods?The Investiture of the Gods was an ancient fantasy novel that told the stories of many immortals and gods. Although the novel depicted the struggle and power struggle between many immortals, many immortals did not seem to be willing to be listed on the Investiture of the Gods. There could be many specific reasons.
The Investiture of the Gods was a channel for immortals to advance, but if they were unwilling to accept this position, they might be excluded from the Investiture of the Gods. Therefore, many immortals might choose to avoid being included in the Investiture of the Gods to avoid losing their status and freedom.
The formulation and implementation of the Investiture of the Gods may be for political and strategic purposes, and the motives of the immortals on the Investiture of the Gods may not be consistent with this. Therefore, they might think that their mission was to maintain the order and balance of heaven and earth and not to become political tools.
There were many immortals on the Investiture of the Gods. The immortals might think that they did not have enough strength and influence to obtain the recognition of the Investiture of the Gods. Therefore, they might think that they did not need to be on the God List to prove their strength and value.
The above are just some possible reasons. The specific reasons may vary according to the era, region, cultural background, and other factors.
Why were many rural college graduates unwilling to return to their hometown?The reasons why many rural college graduates were unwilling to return to their hometown after graduation might be as follows:
1. The competitive pressure of the city is greater: the cost of living in the city is higher, the employment opportunities are more, and the development of the city is faster, so the competitive pressure of the city is greater. In contrast, the cost of living in rural areas was relatively low, and there were relatively few employment opportunities.
2. Better cultural atmosphere in the city: The city has more cultural atmosphere and educational resources, which can provide more learning opportunities and cultural activities. The people in the city were also more open, tolerant, civilized, and had more complicated interpersonal relationships. In contrast, the cultural resources and educational opportunities in rural areas were relatively few, and people's ideas were relatively conservative.
3. Higher quality of life in the city: The quality of life in the city is higher, the life is more convenient, and the infrastructure such as transportation, medical treatment, and entertainment is more complete. People in cities usually enjoy better social welfare and health care, as well as more entertainment and cultural activities. In contrast, the life in the countryside was relatively simple and the quality of life was relatively low.
The development prospects of the hometown are not good: the development of some rural areas is relatively lagging behind, and the development and progress in economic, social, and cultural aspects are relatively small. In contrast, the city's development was relatively fast and the prospects were broader. Therefore, some people might think that it was better to stay in the city and pursue better development opportunities than to go back to their hometown.
