Chen Xing has long wanted to visit the grassland of Poyang Lake. He has seen videos and photos taken by others, and Chen Xing also likes the lonely star pier.
He has always liked this style of architecture.
As a trivia fact, this Poyang Lake grassland attraction was discovered by tourists themselves. So far, officials have no intention of developing it. This seems to be inconsistent with the strategies of various provinces and cities to attract tourists.
But this place is not originally a scenic spot with positive significance.
This is the outer lake of Poyang Lake. After it was so dry that there was no moisture on the ground, this lush spring grass gradually grew in this hot summer, turning Luoxingdun, which was originally floating on the water, into a lonely fortress.
Originally it was very fairy-like and artistic, but the word "lonely castle" made Luo Xing Dun a little bit dilapidated.
Then there is the matter of tourists.
They cannot predict what consequences the tourists will have on this piece of Carex. If this piece of grassland is destroyed, the lake will be deprived of nutrients during the flood season, which will have extremely significant consequences for the local ecology.
Impact.
Therefore, even now when tourism in various places is experiencing serious involution, Jiangxi officials rarely promote this attraction themselves.
These are what the director told him.
Originally, the sediment in Poyang Lake was wiped out by illegal sand miners. Now if this grassland is given to Huo Huo, wouldn't it be a drain on the bottom?
Chen Xing came here just to take a look for himself, and had no intention of taking photos for publicity.
But it’s really green.
Finger grass.
We found a dry and dry place to get off the car and walked about 300 meters into Poyang Lake. We can see the grassland that has been frequently shown in various short videos recently. The height of this grassland reaches up to our waist, and it is full of greenery.
It is full of vitality. It is estimated that it is difficult to find such a pure grassland in the real prairie.
Many self-driving tourists drove their cars over by ferry, and the weight of the cars overwhelmed the grass, causing many S-shaped paths to appear in the grassland.
The wind blew again and the grass fell, tickling Chen Xing's arms.
He reached out and grabbed it.
Now he is wearing a white T-shirt and black sports pants. Before he came here, he heard that there were blood-sucking insects on the grass here, so he didn't dare to hang out here in shorts.
The black mesh baseball cap complements the color of the pants.
By the way, it’s also for shade.
The right hand is tied with a hand strap and holding the camera.
Not publicizing does not mean not taking photos. If Jiangxi is not so dry in the next many years, then the photos taken by Chen Xing may be a souvenir that he will keep for a lifetime. Besides, which photographer goes on a trip and visits such beautiful places?
The one with the camera.
That's all. The backpack and other things have been left by Chen Xing in the hotel in Poyang.
The whole person is just one word handsome.
There was a family in the distance taking photos of people lying on the grass. Chen Xing reminded him from a distance: "Be careful of bugs!"
"Okay!"
I don’t know if they understood it.
When this grassland first came out, the local cattle and sheep farmers discovered it immediately. Wouldn't it be in vain if they didn't use this large grassland for grazing? The cattle and sheep in Inner Mongolia eat this kind of grass.
He looks so good.
So they also graze cattle and sheep to eat.
As a result, even after a few days of eating grass, the livestock fell ill and died.
Chen Xing continued to walk forward and found a place with fewer tourists. After looking around, he walked towards two girls who were taking pictures with their mobile phones and asked, "I'm sorry, could you please take a picture for me?"<
/p>
The person who was posing for the photo didn't even hear Chen Xing's request clearly, so he subconsciously wanted to refuse.
Not only are pretty girls often approached, but they will definitely meet a few when traveling. It’s no surprise that she has a boyfriend.
But the other one readily agreed, nodded and said, "Okay, how do you want to shoot?"
"Thank you." Chen Xing said with a smile.
Then he adjusted the parameters of the camera and still shot silhouettes against the light, because the red clouds on the horizon combined with the grassland scenery dyed red by the sunset are particularly beautiful and beautiful. There is no need for a clear person to ruin the artistic conception in the picture.<
/p>
But people must exist as an invisible subject.
If Chen Xing is dissatisfied with the people around him, he can only go into battle himself.
He squatted down and said, "This is the angle. I will probably be standing in this position." Chen Xing pointed on the monitor, and then said, "When I say shooting, just press the shutter button. It's continuous shooting. You know how to use it."
Camera?"
"I can do it, I can still press the shutter button, haha."
"That's okay, please."
Chen Xing handed her the camera and jogged a few steps to the front.
Neither of the two girls looked at Chen Xing, they looked at the camera Chen Xing handed them.
Chen Xing is always dark in the picture. The exposure has been adjusted by Chen Xing. Chen Xing's face cannot be seen, but his tall figure and almost perfect profile can be seen. The person holding the camera gasped.
, said: "This is too tempting."
"Yes, yes, who can withstand this..."
"Okay, let's shoot."
Chen Xing shouted.
"Okay!"
The girl pressed the shutter, and the sound of "ka ka ka ka" was heard many times, and the monitor kept turning on and off, on and off.
If it was Chen Xing who took the photo, he could be sure that he wouldn't take the picture as a lake, but he didn't have much hope for others, so he turned on continuous shooting and could always find a few that were usable after taking a dozen or so pictures. Turning back to take the camera, Chen Xing nodded and said, "Thank you."
"You're welcome, these photos are really beautiful. Can you... take two for us?"
This request was very simple, and it took Chen Xing two minutes to take the photo.
It's still the same position as before.
The person is standing sideways, and the silhouette only captures the curves of the body. The better the figure, the better the photo will look. Then he added a WeChat account naturally, and Chen Xing thought it would be better to retouch the picture a little before sending it to them.
Chen Xing thinks it’s easy to add a girl on WeChat.
Why do some good-looking people in the group finally go out and take photos of a few girls, but they can only send the photos directly through Bluetooth...
Go back and laugh at them a few more times.
The sun is setting, the mosquitoes in this grassland are becoming more and more active, and tourists are gradually leaving here.
It happened that these two girls had cars, so they took their cars back to Poyang.
Before, he thought that he could see the legendary Luo Xing Dun when he came to Poyang Lake, but who knew that Luo Xing Dun was not here. He had to go to the other side of Poyang Lake, to the other side of Lushan Mountain to see Luo Xing Dun.
It’s a bit of a pity for Chen Xing.
He is the kind of person who gets excited and goes away, but then fails when he is exhausted. If he doesn't see the scenic spot he wants to see, he probably won't make an extra trip just for the scenery.
As for Lushan.
Chen Xing thought about it and decided it was best not to go.
It’s not that Lushan is bad, but there are so many people in Lushan now. All the famous mountains in the country are basically occupied by special forces. Chen Xing doesn’t want to fight for positions with them. It is estimated that the good shooting spots on the top of the mountain are not even a mosquito.
I can’t even keep my mouth shut.
No wonder traveling abroad is so popular now.
No matter how good college students are, they are only good at short-term tourist attractions. Passports and visas are needed to go abroad. Passports are easy to apply for, but visas are not.
People ask you what you are doing abroad.
You said travel.
How many days will you be abroad?
If you say you'll come back after checking in at the Eiffel Tower in two or three days - the visa officer will only give you a black face and a big x.
Besides, air tickets are quite expensive.
These conditions have stopped most people who want to travel to Europe. For many people who have a little money and time but relatively low educational level, some visa officers will not let you pass. They will think that you are suspected of illegal stay. Therefore, some tourist attractions abroad can actually make people feel more relaxed.
After all, there are few people.
Chen Xing had a good day's rest in the small county town of Poyang.
There hasn't been any news from Seth yet, so Chen Xing doesn't know who will end up with his most perfect work this year... It would be great if there were top domestic museums to accept his works.
Even if it’s not the Palace Museum or the National Museum, it would be nice to visit one of the provinces or cities.
Unfortunately not.
The top foreign museums are open to all rivers, and you can see a little bit of things from all countries. Modern, modern, and medieval ones are all mixed together, because the cultural relics of their own country cannot support a top museum.
But China is different.
China has so much heritage. Even though countless national treasures were lost during those dark hundred years, in modern times, top museums are still filled with precious cultural relics from ancient times to modern times, from all dynasties.
There are museums that house modern art, but Chen Xing doesn’t want to put his works in such museums.
Alas, after all, I am still a layman who wants to be famous and make money.
After continuing to travel around Jiangxi for a few days, Chen Xing took a flight back to Sichuan Province on August 29th.
No matter how much he wanders outside, he still has to come back to see his parents when he returns to China. Otherwise, he has to go back to the Arles Photography Exhibition on September 3rd, and his return to China will probably be during the National Day, which will last more than a month.
.
During this period, several publishing houses had an online chat with Chen Xing.
The French travel notes written by Chen Xing are definitely of high quality in terms of travel notes.
The writing style in it is also excellent, and the description of the picture is very strong. It describes the city of Paris in detail. You don’t need to read any guides. You can find the best accommodation in Paris with this book written by Chen Xing.
Here are some of the best restaurants and the most beautiful cafes.
Good travelers are basically good photographers, but Chen Xing can say that he is the best writer among photographers and travelers.
He originally wanted to submit the travel notes to Hong Kong Island Joint Publishing House. He didn't know it before, but after checking it, he found that this publishing house is so famous and has a wide range of channels. It can even be directly translated into the languages of other countries and sold abroad.<
/p>
He even contacted Zhu Kai, the editor-in-chief of Sanlian Bookstore.
This is someone he accidentally met during his trip to Hong Kong Island.
But they didn't have much experience in publishing travel notes, so Chen Xing asked twice. While they were still hesitating, someone from Southwest Tourism Press came directly to Chen Xing's home.
Not my hometown in the New Territories, but my house in Chengdu.
Most of his house has been completed, the electrical appliances are complete, and the study room is ready-made, so of course it can be lived in directly.
Scattered high-quality furniture is better to be done slowly.
There is no rush now.
Chen Xing went out and met two men from Southwest Tourism Publishing House in nearby Longtan Park.
Glasses, suit or shirt behind the back...
As expected, he is a cultured person, gentle and gentle.
People in the mixed cultural industry are more concerned about their own image, which is different from the men in science and engineering who play IT. If you see someone wearing simple and casual clothes below some commercial buildings, they are basically technicians.
It’s not just men, many female technicians are like this too.
Programmers are also a relatively demanding industry. Regardless of men or women, girls are somewhat disadvantaged in this industry. If they spend more time grooming themselves, their income will not be comparable to others.
If the clerks are not girls, most of them are dressed like the two in front of them.
The leader among them stretched out his hand and said: "I'm sorry for disturbing Teacher Chen Xing's rest on the weekend."
After shaking hands with him, Chen Xing said in local dialect: "You're welcome, it's a bit hot today. You two haven't eaten yet? May I treat you to coffee?"
This place belongs to the second richest area in Chengdu. There are many Western restaurants and cafes. Chen Xing, who often wanders around with his camera, has found several cafes with good taste. They have wide views and good air conditioning. It is suitable for
Talk about things.
After everyone sat down, Chen Xing asked: "What do you want to drink?"
"We rarely drink coffee, just like Teacher Chen."
Chen Xing ordered three cups of espresso, and then told them: "I'm not very good at it, so I came to the cafe and only ordered espresso. It was ridiculous."
He is not as ignorant as he said, but he doesn't know the details of the two people opposite him.
If they are regular coffee drinkers and just say this because they are low-key, then if Chen Xing introduces some French, Italian, American, etc., they will probably be laughed at. After all, he has no professional understanding of these things.<
/p>
To put it simply, Chen Xing never pretends to be unprofessional.
"No, my name is Wang Juncai. This is the first time my colleague Su Bin has met Teacher Chen Xing. As expected, it is just like what was said on the Internet, Yushu Linfeng."
"Thank you."
They did not go straight to the topic, but chatted with Chen Xing about the recent small things in Chengdu, such as the long-delayed Universiade was finally held, and the rising housing prices in Chengdu due to the park city plan.
These are all topics that people living in Chengdu are more concerned about.
Chen Xing is also very interested in these.
If he hadn't been going back to France in the next few days, Chen Xing would definitely go to see the Universiade.
After drinking the coffee, Wang Juncai felt that the conversation was almost getting heated, so he said:
"Our publishing house attaches great importance to Teacher Chen Xing's travel notes. The royalties are almost based on the price of best-sellers, and we will spare no effort in publicity. Teacher Chen Xing, do you think you have any other requirements?"
The conditions have been discussed many times on WeChat, and Chen Xing is satisfied with the royalties.
"Thank you for your consideration. I don't have any big requirements, but I hope that the cover design will use the designer I designated, and the printing quality must be good."
Under normal circumstances, the color of a photograph on a mobile phone or computer monitor is incomplete.
The printing effect of books is a whole level better than that of monitors.
Therefore, many people think that the works they see at photography exhibitions are more beautiful. This is not an illusion caused by the environment, but is really more beautiful than what they see on the computer.
You may not be able to feel this kind of beauty yourself, but your eyes can see it and your brain can analyze it. The final result is a feeling that makes you like this work even more.
Chen Xinghui uses a large number of photography works in his travel notes.
