Author:Intersection Time:2022.08.15

"I have grown up in this city since I was a child. Everything is so familiar: the red plum Pavilion of the birds and flowers, the bustling new century, and the sound of Luohan Road ...

"However, when I graduated from high school, I used my steps, bicycles, and public transportation. I realized that Changzhou in the eyes of the past eighteen years was just her" corner of the iceberg ".

"I" met "again."

His name is Huang Yan, who is just 20 years old this year. He is a sophomore student in the Southern Forest Scenery Garden and a native Changzhou "new youth". Recently, a group of photos "Finding Changzhou's" City Treasure "completely guidelines" taken by Huang Yan quickly became popular, and was called "the popular Changzhou urban propaganda blockbuster" by netizens.

Looking for Yanling, visiting ancient and asking the present, seeing Changzhou, which has never been seen, 139 photos outline a city with a sense of history and modern interest? Xinhua Daily · Jiaojiao reporter exclusively interviewed the post -00s.

A wooden building in the Tang Dynasty opened his door to visit Gu Xunyou

On social networks, Huang Yan loves to claim to be "monuments for the monument". It is not common to use this keyword as a label, but Huang Yanle is among them. "I have been dazzling about Jiangnan Lingshan Xiushui since I was a child, and naturally became a historian explorer and recorder."

Unlike many post -00s as a child, in the memory of Huang Yan, his childhood is closely related to the six ancient towns, Jinling landscapes, and Suzhou gardens, and more than 2,000 villains. "When I was young, I was not very good and I couldn't go away. Except for some places in Changzhou, my parents often took me to visit Suzhou, Wuxi, Nanjing and other places. I have a preliminary understanding of Jiangnan history and culture. "

It was a trip to Huang Yan's visit to Gu Xunyou. "At that time, I went to the Foguang Temple of Wutai Mountain. Looking at the magnificent Tang Dynasty wooden buildings, the moment I stood under the arch arch, I suddenly felt that the world was suddenly clear, and I felt the greatness of Chinese historical civilization. I want to shoot and record them." To a kind of civilized tension and historic vitality, this power has gradually changed his hobby from "watching ancient" to "exploration ancient".

"In addition, I am no stranger to photography. My mother likes photography. She likes to take me. I actually don't like to be photographed, but I slowly picked up the camera and liked photography." Since then The camera and the grand history have gorgeous colors in Huang Yan's life.

A 400 -kilometer journey of cycling allows him to present Changzhou's "propaganda blockbuster"

Although he is interested in historical and culture of the motherland, Huang Yan is most familiar with Sri Lanka's hometown of Changzhou. "There are 139 photos that have become popular on the Internet this time, but in fact, I took 20,000 to 30,000 in a few years, and it was not only taken in the summer vacation in high school, but the material that accumulated little by little."

Among them, the full 10 -day continuous shooting period made Huang Yan very reflective. He was holding a map of Changzhou and accumulated 400 kilometers alone. He "followed the picture" and took the city almost all over and shot it, but he was still overwhelmed. He lamented that "he thought he was familiar with every street" had a huge change in his hometown, and there were so many corners and beauty that he never knew.

The city and time set the most moving angle in Huang Yan's lens: he took the white wall and black tiles of Jiangnan residential houses, carved door buildings and fine carrier, in the chase with light and shadow, waiting for the dialogue with today's people ; He took a long summer, marshmallow -like white clouds slowly flowed around the pure blue color, the breeze was not dry, and the sunset was quiet; he also photographed people who were obsessed with Jiangnan style walked into a corridor, piercing one by one Pavilion, Taiwan, Tower, Pavilion, seeing the dynamic jumping of the sun, there is a kind of blurred illusion in the depths of the years; he also photographed the time walking through the West Lion Township. An egg fried rice is the most seductive thing about the hungry children ...

A piece of celebrity monument in the Qing Dynasty, deepening his new understanding of cities and culture

Talking about the most impressive photo, Huang Yan replied almost without thinking: "A monument." The picture composition of this photo is not delicate, and the color treatment is by no means elaborate, but listening to Huang Yan's story, it seems to be slowly slowly. Blooming Guanghua.

This monument is located in the Tomada Tomb of Wujin District, Changzhou. Nantian was a famous painter and calligrapher in the Qing Dynasty, and the ancestor of the Changzhou Painting School, but even if the locals in Changzhou knew and even knew him, there were not many. On the day of shooting, Huang Yan and two friends went together, and encountered a "tomb old man". Perhaps the place is too remote for a long time, and maybe it is eager to introduce such a hometown to guests. The "break in" of the three young people makes the elderly happy. "The old man's legs and feet are not very good. Sitting in a wheelchair for the whole process. He is particularly laborious but very happy to bring us to this monument to tell us the story of Nantian. Honestly, he tells the local dialect, plus the elderly I am very old, I do n’t understand too much, but we are still deeply moved. "

Listening to the old man quietly for more than an hour, no one was disturbed, Huang Yan silently picked up the camera and took the photo. "Later, I consciously took some ancient monuments and monuments that were very far away and rarely known, spanning dozens of kilometers, just to find a monument in the middle of the grass. Missing, a respect for the ancestors, is also my new understanding of cities and culture. " A dream of "customized" landscape design for the monuments is his way of talking to history

From Changzhou to Nanjing, the post -00s "monument seeker" became more like fish, and the historical sense of each inch of the ancients of the six dynasties made Huang Yan obsessively.

He did not go to the Internet celebrity attraction that he was familiar with, but followed his heart to visit ancient visit. The eternal charm of the stone carvings of the Six Dynasties is also the charm of history. Qixia Mountain Maple Leaf is famous, but Qianfo Yan, who reflects it, has witnessed the "one Qixia Mountain, half of the history of Jinling", which makes Huang Yan's heart year. "I hope to accumulate such materials in Nanjing for four years. One day in the future, I also want to present Nanjing in this way in my hometown of Changzhou, because I especially like the cultural compatible city in Nanjing."

Talking about the future and dreams, Huang Yan did not allow Huang Yan to get out of the indulgence of the monuments. Combined with professional expertise, he has a clearer and specific goal: "There are so many monuments scattered on the land of China, and some of them have been drowned in the wilderness. I hope to have the opportunity to provide a landscape design that conforms to the local environment for these monuments, so that they will glow with new glory. "

Huang Yan said that he wanted to use his own way to inject young blood into the ancient history and culture of Chinese and culture. "I found the way I was a younger generation and historical dialogue. It was not an interpretation, but interaction. I felt very lucky."
