To be honest, the climate in Yanjing is better than that in cities like Dunhuang, but it is still a bit drier than in the south or southwest.
But in late September and early October in the capital, there is a poetic color.
Golden yellow.
This is the color of the leaves. Of course, some leaves are also red. You can often see such colorful mountains on the way from the northwest to the capital by train. They are very beautiful, especially near the capital.
The mountain happened to be on the side of Chen Xing's seat. Almost 60% of the people sitting on the left at that time came close to take pictures with their mobile phones.
From this ratio, we can also see how many are foreign tourists.
People who live in the capital are definitely not surprised to see this kind of scenery, and Chen Xing knows that there is a particularly famous scenic spot in Yanjing called Xiangshan. The autumn scenery here is also unique, and it is Chen Xing's must-see when he comes to Yanjing this time.
A place.
When I went to Yanjing before, it was summer and winter, so that’s it. Why don’t I go to Xiangshan when I come to Yanjing in autumn?
Then the meaning of your trip to Yanjing will be reduced by at least one-third.
The other two, Chen Xing thinks, are the flag-raising and the Forbidden City.
Although the Great Wall is a first-class scenic spot in the whole world, firstly, the Great Wall is not only located in Yanjing, but also the Han Dynasty Great Wall in Dunhuang is also very good. Secondly, it is the National Day holiday the day after tomorrow. Going to climb the Great Wall at this time?<
/p>
Crazy?
Getting back to the topic, Chen Xing got out of the car covered in sweat.
He took the train all the way, and the journey was a bit far, but the advantage was that he could see the mountains and rivers of his motherland.
Autumn is the season that best reflects Chinese culture. At this time, many mountains and rivers that were originally unsightly will turn into a golden color like what Chen Xing saw before, and you can still see neat ears of wheat in the fields. p>
But the smell on the train is also bad, that’s true.
After leaving the station, Chen Xing went to the hotel he had booked to take a shower and change his clothes. When he was drying his hair, he even smelled his body. It seemed that the smell of smoke that he had picked up on the train was gone, so he nodded with satisfaction. p>
He had smoked this thing when he was a kid just to look cool, but he never got addicted to it.
When he got a little older, he didn't like the smell very much, so he quit whenever he was told. Now he feels a little motion sick after smelling it for a long time.
Under normal circumstances, he would not faint when taking a train.
He fixed his hair with a little styling cream and sprayed on Gucci perfume. He had been using it for a long time and still had more than half a bottle of it. It just stood out. It didn't smell like flowers. It was very special. I couldn't tell what it was.
Taste, but smells good.
After doing this, he went downstairs and took the subway line 2 to Andingmen Station.
When Chen Xing walked out of the subway exit, he saw Sister Tang.
Tang Shiyi wore black clothes, a high ponytail, a black mask and a pair of glasses. She looked very life-like and lacked a lot of the stunning feeling that Chen Xing saw when she performed. p>
"Sister Tang." Chen Xing shouted.
Tang Shiyi is a few years older than Chen Xing. The sisters in their troupe all call her Sister Tang, and Chen Xing follows suit.
I’m used to it now.
Tang Shiyi put her cell phone in her pocket and smiled like crescent moons.
"You came here very quickly. Is this your first time in the capital?"
"Before, I was always at the airport. I only walked around when I was in transit, but I never went to the city."
Chen Xing looked around.
The subway entrance is relatively empty. At first glance, the road is very wide. It deserves to be the capital. But if you look carefully... well, it’s nothing to brag about. This place is just an ordinary city subway entrance, and there is no bustling commercial street outside.<
/p>
But who is Sister Tang who lives here?
Hearing that Chen Xing had never been to Yanjing before, Tang Shiyi smiled even more happily. A blank sheet of paper is great. There are so many scenic spots in Yanjing, and you can take Chen Xing to visit them for many days.
"That's good, just listen to me. I guarantee that I will make arrangements for you to be comfortable."
Tang Shiyi looked like a landlord, raised his chin confidently and said.
When it comes to attractions here in Andingmen, the biggest attraction should be Ditan Park. Tang Shiyi has a house here. Although it is only a six-story house in an old community, the advantage is that it is opposite Ditan Park and there are no buildings to block it.
, good light, broadened field of vision.
At the south entrance of Ditan Park, she pointed to Chen Xing and said, "I've been living here recently."
"Alone? This kind of community security shouldn't be feasible."
"You have to look down on those retired men. They also live in this community. They usually play chess and brag at the door, but if someone you don't know really wants to come in,
No way."
"So powerful?"
"Huh, if you don't believe it, you can try it yourself. Anyway, just don't let me come down to save you when the time comes."
There is no such thing as security in Chen Xing's hometown. Although there is a pavilion at the entrance of the community, it is always undefended and anyone can enter. The pavilion has always been abandoned, and sometimes children will go in to play.
.
Fortunately, there are no homeless people in their small city, otherwise they would definitely live there.
When Chen Xing entered Ditan Park, he looked like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden. She looked left and right, and for a while she wondered what was wrong.
Tang Shiyi wanted to give him a slap.
The beauty is here, why don’t you have a nice chat?
"What's right? What are you looking for?"
"I once read an article called "The Temple of Earth and Me" by Shi Tiesheng, but now I can't find anything in his article at all. I'm a little... how should I put it, too pretentious, and feel a little disappointed."
"I have also read his article. It is very touching, but why is it disappointing?" Tang Shiyi said, "I heard that this place used to be quite dilapidated, and the article mentioned the same dilapidation, but now our country is getting better.
Ah, can’t the capital still have the feeling of the 1980s?”
"That's right, that's why I say I'm being hypocritical."
The house he bought in Chengdu left a relatively complete study room with many books. Chen Xing now likes to take a few books with him every time he goes out, doubling them whenever he has nothing to do.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
He wasn't like this before, but now it may be a common problem among literati.
Tang Shiyi didn't understand it very well. She was not from Yanjing anyway, and she didn't have deep feelings about the Ditan Park. Anyway, the Ditan Park seemed to have been like this since she came here.
"Tell me what kind of artistic photos you want me to take. Let me tell you first. I won't take photos in the room."
She said it in a cryptic way, meaning that no private photos would be taken.
Chen Xing forgot about the touching article for a moment and started laughing.
"Haha, I don't know how to take such photos. Don't worry, Sister Tang. These are very serious commercial photos. I would like to ask who bought the clothes for your troupe. I need a designer who understands Dunhuang culture.
”
"We only have designers in our theater, do you want to find them?"
"Yeah."
Chen Xing has already drawn a rough outline of the costume he wants, but after all, he is not a designer. After drawing the costume, he still needs to discuss with the designer whether it is possible to do so, and then it will probably be a few days before he gets the finished product.
.
It doesn’t have to be very exquisite. After all, many details can be repaired, but the materials must be good.
Otherwise, when people take a look at it, they will think that it is a promotional photo of a web game taken by Chen Xing.
"What exactly do you want to shoot?" Tang Shiyi asked curiously. "As a model, I should know something about this, right? I just remember what you said about Dunhuang style last time. It's too general. I don't understand it very well.
”
There is nothing hard to say about this. After Chen Xing pondered for a few seconds, he said:
"I used to think that Sister Tang, you might look very beautiful in Western-style dance costumes, so I wanted to ask you out to take some Western-style portrait photos. But I went to Dunhuang a few days ago, and then I changed my mind.
Let’s use your photos to show our country’s Western culture to foreign countries.”
"Wow, it's so much fun."
Tang Shiyi also understood that Chen Xing wanted to hold a photography exhibition with the theme of Dunhuang abroad.
But it sounds like a good thing.
She also knew about Chen Xing's reputation abroad. Even though it was not very popular in China, Chen Xing's photography exhibition in Europe still attracted a lot of visitors. She went to see it in France, and then met her again during a performance in Ireland.
.
At that time, she went to see it again. The foreigners all admired Chen Xing's works.
"They all like to call me a Chinese-style photographer, so I will take more Chinese-style photos. It will more or less promote our country's culture and do my best."
"Cultural export?" Tang Shiyi asked.
"Let's wait until I truly become a great photographer, haha. It would be great if I could really export culture."
The photography circle is not a very popular circle. In art, if there are 10 European and American people who like painting, then there are only 3 collectors who like photography and collect perspective works at most, which is incomparable with painting.<
/p>
Chen Xing also worked hard to learn oil painting. When he saw those colorful mountains on the train, he wanted to express them in paintings.
But my painting skills are a little bit worse.
It's okay to draw it yourself for practice, but selling it in a gallery is just a scam for buyers.
Just as we were talking about the subsequent shooting, Chen Xing also shared with Tang Shiyi her feelings about seeing those scenery in Dunhuang. They had dinner here at noon, and then Tang Shiyi took Chen Xing to find someone she knew.
Fashion designer.
The fashion designers who can survive in Yanjing are not too bad. The designers mentioned here are those who have independent design capabilities, and those who have just graduated from school are not counted.
The design major is the most demanding among all university majors. After graduating, you can at least make money to support yourself.
Design majors may have to spend money to go to work, because the salary earned by design apprentices cannot even rent a house in Yanjing for a month.
The designer introduced by Tang Shiyi is less than thirty years old. She is a thin woman who looks like a teacher.
When Chen Xing arrived at her office, she took out the picture she drew.
He doesn't know how to draw professional manuscripts. There is only a pencil drawing of a person on the drawing paper, which looks like an anime and is wearing a set of beautiful clothes.
"Well...it's OK to draw," the designer said.
At least the designer understood what Chen Xing wanted to express. Although the Chinese comic style made her a little bit laughable, she thought that as a photographer, Chen Xing was already very good at painting. She couldn't let him do photography again.
Winning an award and being able to design clothes.
"As long as you think it's good," Chen Xing said with a smile, "Can it be done? It will only take two days."
"How many days?" She scratched her hair, thought for a moment, and said, "It will take at least a week, otherwise we won't be able to make this dress."
Customizing clothes is not that simple. Even if she brought three design apprentices, she would not be able to make this set of clothes in two or three days. It is not 3D printing, and the embroidery on it will take at least three days to do.
"One week is fine." Chen Xing didn't care and continued to discuss his requirements with the designer.
Their school will not continue teaching until at least the 15th, and he is now a senior and currently interning in Professor Nobel's team. If he still can't finish it by then, he will ask the professor for two days off.
There should be no problem. Professor Nobel has been relatively idle recently and has no necessary tasks.
Chen Xing turned back to Tang Shiyi who was sitting on the sofa and asked, "Where is Sister Tang? Do you have any plans during this time?"
"Me, I basically have arrangements every day, and I often have to go to the troupe to watch." She is now working behind the scenes. In two years, she will be a middle-level or senior-level person in the troupe at best. How can she have nothing to do?
.
"But, I like this project of yours very much. I will definitely make time for you when the time comes. Don't worry."
Tang Shiyi's character is more direct and she doesn't want to tease this little brother anymore.
It took a whole day just to re-draw the design drawings. Chen Xing also booked a hotel here the next day. He helped with odd jobs in this design studio and learned from other people's design experience. He might have more needs in the future.
A day of designing my own clothes.
Other photographers choose the style they want from a lot of clothes, and then they will customize and design them themselves.
Although it sounds awesome, it actually suffers from lack of knowledge.
Back in France, as long as Chen Xing wanted to take pictures of something, Seth would arrange it well. From clothes to various lighting fixtures for shooting, he could use a car to drag Chen Xing to any location in France. But in China, Chen Xing
Nothing.
It's time to set up a team of your own, Chen Xingxin said.
He had the idea of a studio a long time ago, but he hadn't graduated yet and didn't have enough time at that time.
Now that he is in the internship stage of his senior year, he has mastered the knowledge he needs to learn in the photography industry. His contacts in the photography circle are at least as good as Chen Xing's in Europe. Now he just has to start one in China and be responsible for his own work in China.<
/p>
He is a Chinese after all, why is he always making money abroad?
He doesn’t want to walk at night in brocade clothes. Chen Xing’s life creed is to become famous as early as possible. He can’t let domestic fans think that he is just a good-looking anchor or travel anchor. It’s time to let them know how good he is in photography. p>
However, we have to find time to return to Chengdu. For now, it’s better to take this group of photos of Dunhuang.
On the third day, Chen Xing didn't sleep at all. He stayed in the hotel until early in the morning and then set off.
Generally speaking, he hates excitement and likes purity.
But today is different.
It's time to experience the excitement of raising the national flag in the capital.
