Recently, Suzhou Broaden Robotics Co., Ltd. (abbreviated as BOHHOM; hereinafter referred to as "Broaden Robotics") under Broaden, and Chu Jian Bookroom Co., Ltd. under Jiangsu Yuanjian Holdings, have reached a strategic partnership in the future involvement of artificial intelligence in bookstore formats—focusing on the brand business operation direction centered on knowledge distribution and knowledge services. In the future, both parties will work together to accelerate the transformation and expansion of the knowledge format, actively exploring application scenarios in bookstores and various cultural commercial environments through the application of AI technology. In the first phase, both parties will experiment with constructing China's first bookstore scene application that uses artificial intelligence to promote the inclusiveness of knowledge—Chu Jian·Future Bookstore.

In Chu Jian·Future Bookstore, Broaden Robotics can distribute interesting knowledge based on users' interests and hobbies; visitors can also experience book and reading recommendations from the era of screen reading, as well as knowledge services such as cultural tour routes. At the same time, they can enjoy multi-scenario service content, including different flavors of coffee prepared by Broaden Robotics. This is the core test of Chu Jian·Future Bookstore and a technological attempt at self-innovation by the bookstore. Broaden Robotics and Chu Jian·Future Bookstore are trying to create a new business model with "light volume" and "heavy scenarios," making interactors feel as if they are in the future, obtaining a new scene experience of the "traditional bookstore" in the era of artificial intelligence, and creating diverse imaginations for the future bookstore's existence mode.
Helping commercial formats break through traditional business models has always been the original intention and direction of Broaden Robotics. In the future, Broaden Robotics will continue to focus on the research and development and application of intelligent robots, iterating and upgrading for different commercial formats. While bringing users a thoughtful intelligent experience, it will continuously promote the improvement of industrial structure.
Suzhou Broaden Robotics Co., Ltd., established in 2011 (abbreviated as BOHHOM, hereinafter referred to as "Broaden Robotics"), is a wholly-owned subsidiary under the Broaden Precision Engineering Group.

As a provider of intelligent robot products, solutions, and value-added services, Broaden Robotics is committed to integrating robotic technology into industries such as retail, security, cultural and creative industries, and leisure entertainment, thereby enhancing the quality of human life. It focuses on providing intelligent robot products and, together with its partners, uses robotic technology to improve existing industry solutions, unlock industry potential, and create added value. Currently, the company's independently developed robots are widely used in scenarios such as supermarkets, hotels, technology parks, public security, hospitals, schools, etc. In the future, Broaden Robotics will expand its application scope to provide more users with intelligent new experiences and thoughtful services, jointly creating a beautiful and harmonious intelligent society.
Chu Jian·Future Bookstore is the first bookstore in China themed around artificial intelligence and the widespread dissemination of knowledge. It brings together a comprehensive scenario space from well-known Chinese knowledge publishing and dissemination institutions, dedicated to the production and dissemination of digital knowledge, and reconstructing the knowledge supply chain.
Chu Jian·Future Bookstore adopts an unmanned sales model, with robots providing knowledge distribution, knowledge services, shopping guidance, and beverage preparation throughout the store. The bookstore will also gather well-known Chinese knowledge production and dissemination IPs. Its "Chu Jian·Knowledge Power Research Institute" invites renowned experts from the knowledge community to share diverse and interesting knowledge courses. With the "Knowledge Box," it aims to create a window into Chinese knowledge, sharing emerging knowledge, travel, and cultural and creative trends, and integrating books/audiovisual means to present thematic exhibitions on knowledge and travel.
