travel starts with photography

Chapter 327 Costume Design
To be honest, although the climate in Yanjing is better than that of cities like Dunhuang, it is still a bit drier than the south or southwest.

But at the end of September and the beginning of October in the capital, there is a poetic color.

Golden.

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.

That mountain happened to be on the side of Chen Xingxing, and almost 60.00% of the people sitting on the left at that time were close to this side and took pictures with their mobile phones.

From this ratio, we can also see how many tourists are from other places.

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, and the autumn scenery here is also a must-see place.

When I went to Yanjing before, it was summer and winter, so that’s all. Can I not go to Xiangshan when I come to Yanjing in autumn?

Then the meaning of your trip to Yanjing is at least one-third less.

The other two copies, Chen Xing thought, were 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 Great Wall of Han Dynasty in Dunhuang is also very good. Secondly, the day after tomorrow is the National Day holiday. How about going to climb the Great Wall at this time?
Crazy?
Closer to home, Chen Xing got out of the car covered in sweat.

He has been traveling all the way by train, and the journey is a bit long, but the advantage is that he can see the mountains and rivers of his motherland.

Autumn is the season that best reflects Chinese culture. At this time, many unattractive mountains and rivers will turn into golden yellow as Chen Xing saw before, and you can still see neat ears of wheat in the fields.

But the train smells bad too, it's true.

After leaving the station, Chen Xing went to the hotel he had booked to take a shower and change his clothes.While drying his hair, he even sniffed his body. It seemed that there was no smell of smoke from the train, so he nodded in satisfaction.

He smoked this thing to look handsome when he was a child, but he has never been addicted to it.

When he was a little older, he didn't like this smell very much, so he quit it as soon as he said it. Now he will feel a little motion sick after smelling it for a long time.

Under normal circumstances, he would not get dizzy on the train.

I tidied up my hair with styling cream and sprayed on Gucci perfume. He has used this product for a long time and still has more than half a bottle, but there is one thing that stands out. It doesn't smell like a flower. It's very special. I can't tell what it is. Taste, but good smell.

After finishing these, he went downstairs and took the subway line [-] to Andingmen Station.

Going out of the subway exit, Chen Xing saw Sister Tang.

Tang Shiyi was dressed in black, with a high ponytail, a black mask and a pair of glasses. She looked very life-like, and she lacked the sense of surprise that Chen Xing saw when she was performing.

"Sister Tang." Chen Xing called out.

Tang Shiyi was a few years older than Chen Xing. The sisters in their troupe called him Sister Tang, and Chen Xing followed suit.

I'm used to it now.

Tang Shiyi put the mobile phone in his pocket, and his eyes smiled like crescent moons.

"You came here very quickly. Is this your first time in the capital?"

"Before, I was at the airport. At most, I wandered around when I was in transit. 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 is worthy of being the capital. If you look carefully...well, there is nothing to brag about. This place is a very ordinary city subway entrance, and the outside is not a bustling commercial street.

But whoever called Sister Tang lives here.

Hearing that Chen Xing had never been to Yanjing before, Tang Shiyi smiled even more happily, the white paper is good, there are so many scenic spots in Yanjing, and Chen Xing can take Chen Xing to see them for many days.

"That's good, you just listen to me, and I promise to make you comfortable."

Tang Shiyi looked like a landlord, raised his chin confidently and said.

If you want to talk about scenic spots on Andingmen, the biggest scenic spot should be Ditan Park. Tang Shiyi has a house here. Although it is only a six-story building in the old community, the advantage is that it is Ditan Park on the opposite side, and there are no buildings to cover it. , the light is good, and the field of vision is broadened.

At the entrance to the south gate of Ditan Park, she pointed to Chen Xing and said, "I've been living here recently."

"Alone? The security of this kind of community should not be good."

"Now you underestimate those retired uncles. They also live in this community. Don't look at them, they usually play chess and brag at the door, but if there are people you don't know who want to go in, no way."

"so smart?"

"Hmph, if you don't believe me, you can try it yourself. Anyway, 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 gate of the community, it has always been in an undefended state, and anyone can enter.That pavilion has always been deserted, and sometimes children would go in to play.

Fortunately, there are no homeless people in their small city, otherwise they would definitely live in it.

When Chen Xing entered Ditan Park, he acted like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, looking left and right, and after a while he said something wrong.

Tang Shiyi wished he could slap him.

The beauty is here, don't you want to chat well?

"What's wrong, what are you looking for?"

"I've read Shi Tiesheng's "I and the Temple of Earth" before, but now I can't find the things written in his article at all. I'm a little... how should I put it, hypocritical, and I feel a little disappointed."

"I've also read his article, which is very touching, but what's the disappointment?" Tang Shiyi said, "I heard that it used to be quite dilapidated, and the article said it was dilapidated, but now our country is getting better. Ah, can’t the capital still have the feeling of the 80s?”

"That's right, that's why I said I'm hypocritical."

The house he bought in Rongcheng left behind a relatively complete study room with many books in it. Chen Xing now likes to take a few books with him every time he goes out, and doubles them when he has nothing to do.

He was not like this before, but now he may have a common problem of literati.

Tang Shiyi didn't quite understand it. She was not from Yanjing anyway, and she didn't have any deep feelings about this Ditan Park. Anyway, this Ditan Park seemed to have been like this since she came here.

"Let's talk about what kind of artistic photos you want me to take. Let me tell you first. I don't take the kind of photos in the room."

She said it cryptically, indicating that she would not take photos of her private room.

Chen Xing forgot the touching article for a while, and laughed.

"Haha, I wouldn't take this kind of photo. Don't worry, Miss Tang, it's a serious commercial photo. I want to ask who made the clothes for your troupe. I need a designer who understands Dunhuang culture. "

"There are designers in our theater, do you want to find them?"

"kindness."

Chen Xing has already drawn the general appearance of the clothes he wants, but he is not a student of design after all. After drawing the clothes, he has 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 is not too exquisite, after all, many details can be repaired, but the material must be good.

Otherwise, when people saw the photos, they would think that Chen Xing took the promotional photos of web games.

"What do you want to shoot?" Tang Shiyi asked curiously. "As a model, I should know more about it, right? I remember what you said about the Dunhuang style last time. It's too general, and I don't understand it very well."

There is nothing wrong with this, Chen Xing pondered for a few seconds, and said:

"I thought Sister Tang that you might be very beautiful in Western Region-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. Use your photos to show foreign countries the culture of the Western Regions of our country."

"Wow, it's such a big game."

Tang Shiyi also understood that Chen Xing wanted to hold a photography exhibition with the theme of Dunhuang abroad.

Sounds like a good thing though.

She also knows Chen Xing's fame abroad. Although it is not very popular in China, there are still a lot of people watching Chen Xing's photography exhibition in Europe. She went to see it in France, and then met again when she was performing in Ireland. up.

At that time, she went to see it again, and the foreigners all admired Chen Xing's works.

"They all like to call me a Chinese-style photographer, so I will shoot more Chinese-style photos, more or less to promote our country's culture, and try my best."

"Cultural export?" Tang Shiyi asked.

"Let's wait until I really become a great photographer. Haha, I wish I could really export culture."

The photography circle is not a very popular circle. In art, if Europeans and Americans like painting account for 10 people, then there are at most 3 collectors who like photography and can collect works of vision, which is incomparable with painting.

Chen Xing is also working hard to learn oil painting. He saw those colorful mountains on the train before, and he really wanted to use painting to express them.

But the drawing skills are a little bit worse.

It’s okay to practice painting by yourself, but selling it in a gallery is purely cheating buyers.

It happened to be about the subsequent shooting, and Chen Xing also shared with Tang Shiyi how he felt about the scenery in Dunhuang.They ate here at noon, and then Tang Shiyi took Chen Xing to find a fashion designer she knew.

The fashion designers who can survive in Yanjing will not be too bad. The designers mentioned here are the kind of people who have independent design ability, and those who have just graduated from school are not counted.

The design major is the most complicated among all university majors, and people can at least make money to support themselves after graduation.

Design majors may have to spend money to go to work, because the salary earned by design apprentices cannot even rent a house for a month in Yanjing.

The designer Tang Shiyi introduced was under 30 years old, a thin woman who looked like a teacher.

When Chen Xing arrived at her office, she took out the pictures she had drawn.

He also doesn't know how to draw professional manuscripts. On the drawing paper, there is only a pencil drawing of a person, a bit of anime style, wearing a very beautiful suit.

"Well...it's okay to draw." The designer said.

At least the designer understands what Chen Xing wants to express. Although the comic style in this country makes her laugh a little, but thinking that Chen Xing is already very good at painting as a photographer, I can't let him do photography again. If you win an award, you will also design clothes.

"As long as you think it's good," Chen Xing said with a smile, "Can you make it? It's just two days."

"A few days." She scratched her hair, thought for a while, and said, "It will take at least a week, otherwise the clothes won't be made."

Customizing clothes is not that simple. Even if she brings three design apprentices, it is impossible to make this suit in two or three days. It is not 3D printing, and it will take at least three days to get the embroidery on it.

"One week is fine." Chen Xing didn't care, and continued to raise his request with the designer.

Their school will not continue to teach until at least the 15th, and he is now a senior. He is currently doing an internship in Professor Nobel's team. If he can't finish it by then, he will ask the professor for two days off.

It shouldn't be a problem. Recently, Professor Nobel has been relatively free and doesn't have any necessary tasks.

Chen Xing turned back to Tang Shiyi who was sitting on the sofa and asked, "Where is Miss Tang? Do you have any arrangements during this time?"

"Me, I basically have arrangements every day, and I often go to the troupe to watch." She is now turning behind the scenes. In two years, at worst, she will be a middle-level and high-level executive in the troupe. How could she have nothing to do? .

"However, I like your project very much. I will definitely spare time for you when the time comes. Don't worry."

Tang Shiyi's character is more straightforward, so he doesn't tease this little brother anymore.

It took a day to redraw the design drawing alone, and Chen Xing also booked the hotel here the next day, helping out in this design room, learning from other people's design experience, maybe there will be more in the future Design your own clothes for a day.

Other photographers choose the style they want from a lot of clothes, and they will customize and design themselves in the future.

It sounds awesome, but in fact, it still suffers from no background.

Back in France, as long as Chen Xing wants to shoot anything, Seth will arrange it himself. From clothes to various lighting fixtures for shooting, he can use the car to drag Chen Xing to any location in France. Nothing.

It's time to form a team of our own, Chen Xing thought.

He had the idea of ​​the studio a long time ago, but he hadn't graduated yet and didn't have enough time.

Now that he is in the internship stage of his senior year, he has mastered the knowledge that he should learn in the photography industry. At least Chen Xing has no problem with the contacts in the photography circle in Europe. Now he has to set up one in China to take charge of his work in China.

He is a Chinese after all, what's the matter with always making money abroad.

He doesn't want to travel in brocade clothes. Chen Xing's life creed is to become famous as early as possible, so that domestic fans can't think that he is just a good-looking anchor, travel anchor, and it's time to let them know how good he is in photography.

But I still need to take time to go back to Rongcheng to talk about it. In the past few days, it is better to take this group of photos in Dunhuang.

On the third day, Chen Xing didn't sleep at all. He stayed in the hotel until the early morning and set off.

Generally speaking, he hates excitement and likes to be clean.

But today is different.

It's time to experience the excitement of raising the national flag in the capital.
