"We are racing against time"
Zhang Shengjing came to the Garage Cafe to do a project from 10 am till 8 pm these two days.
Before the Spring Festival, his team planned to launch a new mobile social platform for business activities.
Zhang couldn't help thinking about the platform during the festival.
As soon as the cafe opened on Feb 23, he rushed to the cafe from his home in Wukesong before 10 am and did the final patch work for the platform.
"I called the technical staff in the team to exchange views in the first few days of the festival, we almost haven't rested during the holiday," Zhang closed the computer and said with a smile.
His team has been busy with a lot of work including products, technology and operations which needed to be prepared during the festival.
"We are racing against time," Zhang took off his glasses and closed his eyes.
After a few seconds of silence, he added, "Since we have started our business, we go through hardships due to both pressure and motivations."
Then he put on his glasses, wriggled his neck and opened his laptop to work again.
"I heard that many entrepreneurs have not stopped working during the festival although they did not come to our cafe since it was closed those days. As soon as we opened, they came here and started doing their business again in the New Year." said Li Yan, a staff in the Garage Cafe.

Outside the cafe, there were not many people on the Zhongguancun Innovation Street.
However, about ten miles away, another innovation incubator called 3W Cafe also attracted many entrepreneurs to grow their business there.
In this holy land of entrepreneurship, young people, harboring business dreams are striving to start their own business and make innovations.
The busy figures in the cafe during the festival symbolize the sweeping trend of entrepreneurship in Zhongguancun.
