Chapter 339 Meteor Hunter(1/2)
Chen Xing returned to the hotel after lunch. When he saw Chen Xing, the front desk asked if he wanted to stay another day.
This is a problem.
He came to Sweden to visit the headquarters of Hasselblad, but their headquarters is not in Stockholm, but in Gothenburg on the west coast. Just looking at the west coast of Gothenburg and the east coast of Stockholm, you know that the distance between the two places is really not close.
.
Moreover, Gothenburg is not far from Norway, where Chen Xing has always wanted to go. After meeting the people from Hasselblad, he can go directly to Norway.
Anyway, his Schengen visa allows him to travel freely in the 27 countries in the Schengen area, including Norway.
So if you want to visit more places, you can’t stay in Sweden for too long.
However, Chen Xing stayed in Stockholm for another day, and in the afternoon went to see Britney's school, the Royal Institute of Technology in Sweden.
His conclusion is...not as good as our school.
Although this school is a polytechnic, it pursues two tracks: technology and art. This can be seen from their school motto "Science and Art". European school mottos are usually simple and straightforward, starting from the school's establishment hundreds of years ago.
When , the seniors set the path that the school should take.
The Royal Institute of Technology of Sweden takes science and art as its school motto, so they will develop balanced development in science and technology and literature and art.
The Ecole Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs in Paris takes 'education freedom, research independence' as its motto. They give students full freedom and never make any ideological regulations for students. This allows the top designers from their school to never fail.<
/p>
But Chen Xing personally feels that domestic school mottos are more interesting.
He likes the saying "Nourish the righteousness of the world and perfect the ancient and modern people." This is what Chen Xing saw at Suzhou University when he was traveling in Suzhou. He always thought it was very beautiful, so that he could completely remember it for so long.
Not a single word was forgotten.
The main campus of the Royal Institute of Technology in Sweden used to be the hunting ground of the Swedish royal family. The scenery is pretty good. Now that it has been opened, it has become a park where locals often come to walk around.
There are many old red brick buildings, bronze statues, fountains, etc. in the college, which is very good from the perspective of a classical park.
But this is a school.
One of Chen Xing’s favorite things while studying in Paris is taking photos in the garden downstairs with a camera. This is a common hobby of their first, second, and third grade photography classes. When they don’t want to take photos, they borrow a book from the library and sit there.
Reading quietly on the lawn in the garden.
This kind of quiet fun can't be found in this kind of open school.
Therefore, as a park, Chen Xing thinks it is qualified. He also likes to hang out here, but if he is allowed to study in this school, it is really not as good as the art school in Paris.
"Do I like high-end clothing so much?"
Chen Xing was puzzled.
It should be the halo of my alma mater.
Instead of making an appointment with the beautiful German international student he just met yesterday, Chen Xing secretly came over once and then set off for Gothenburg the next day.
From the moment he stepped onto the train, the scenery outside the window has been shocking Chen Xing's vision.
Green hills, blue sky and white clouds, pink mills, windmills on the horizon.
Chen Xing felt like seeing Microsoft's classic desktop.
If there is any photograph that most people have seen, it is undoubtedly the picture 'blss' on the micro-end desktop. This word is translated as happiness. In the photo, there are some stratus and high clouds in the sky, and there are
Beautiful undulating hills, covered with green grass, and a hint of distant mountains on the right side of the picture.
I heard that the photographer was driving home and was so shocked by the beautiful scenery in front of him that he stopped the car in time and pressed the shutter button.
Now Chen Xing often encounters similar scenery in Sweden.
Unfortunately, he was taking a train, so he could only take some photos through the window.
But I still can't find a suitable composition. It's just scratching the surface and not very satisfying.
"Click..."
Erken Mattison was annoyed by the sound of the Asian guy opposite who kept taking pictures. He didn't sleep well last night. He checked the time and saw that he should be arriving soon. He sat up and stared at Chen Xing to take pictures.
With scrutiny.
What photos can young people take and why are they so noisy?
Didn’t you see anyone sleeping?
This scrutinizing gaze continued until he saw the camera used by this young man.
Hasselblad?
He rubbed his eyes and made sure it was Hasselblad's latest model.
Chen Xing was a little embarrassed by his stare.
What Chinese people fear most when going out is getting into trouble, and Chen Xing was no exception. He took back his camera and smiled at the middle-aged man opposite.
This person was not very well-dressed. He wore a shriveled down jacket. It looked like it had been used for at least five years and was washed frequently. It was white in color and looked like a large-sized jacket.
The owner has experienced countless ups and downs.
His hair is as long as Chen Xing's, but unlike Chen Xing's, who is clean and handsome, this middle-aged man's hair is brown and slightly naturally curly, and it looks greasy and looks like it hasn't been washed for at least a week.
Wanderer?
No, it should be someone who works outdoors for a long time.
The carriage that Chen Xing sat in was not the best, but it was not the worst either. The tickets were very expensive. Even if a wanderer traveled far away and took this carriage once in a while, he would not have such a casual expression. He seemed to care about the tickets.
It’s like money doesn’t matter at all.
His smile worked to some extent, and the person opposite also smiled reluctantly, and then took out his package.
Chen Xing stopped taking pictures and turned off the camera to look at him.
What do you want to show yourself?
When Chen Xing had this thought in his mind, Chen Xing saw him take out a Hasselblad camera exactly like Chen Xing from a bag without any protection.
Wang Defa?
Chen Xing's pupils shrank suddenly and his eyes widened, as if the aperture was suddenly adjusted from f4 to f16.
Do you have one too?
Is Hasselblad a civilian camera in Sweden?
One for each person?
Chen Xing looked at the camera and the person for a while, as if he had lost his vocal organ. He went back and forth several times before asking: "2d?"
"Yes, it looks the same as yours."
The models are all the same, so the appearance must be the same.
He showed Chen Xing a look and then put it back into the bag without protection. Chen Xing felt distressed for a while, and the camera lovers expressed strong condemnation. Well, at this stage, you can just use the best camera for taking pictures so casually.
Did you put it in your backpack?
What should I do if it gets worn out?
What should I do if I fall down accidentally and my lens is broken?
He continued: "When I bought this camera, they said there were very few people with it now. They basically called people to get money to buy it, but you also have one. You took this bus to the Hasselblad Headquarters in Gothenburg.
Company?"
"Yes."
Chen Xing didn't know his identity, so he nodded hesitantly to confirm.
"Then I know you, Chen Xing? Really? Hasselblad put your photo on the wall of their store, which is very shocking."
"Who are you?"
"I am a meteorite hunter, Erken Mattison. I am very lucky to meet you here, Chen from China."
The look in his eyes when he woke up made people feel very majestic, but now he has a familiar feeling, which is a bit different from the Nordic people in Chen Xing's impression.
In the past two days, he has tried to take pictures and pass them to Swedish beauties.
But half of them are okay with you taking pictures, but please don’t come in contact with them. Even close to one-fifth of them will stare at you when they see you taking pictures, or they will turn around and not face your camera.
This uncooperative ratio even made Chen Xing think he had returned to China.
This is something Chen Xing has not encountered for a long time since he became a photographer.
So it is really rare to meet a Swede who can chat with you when you first meet.
"I'm very happy too, but what is the profession of a meteorite hunter?" Chen Xing said.
"Chasing meteorites." He said with a smile, "Did you know that there is a photography genre in your photography industry called storm chasers?"
Storm Chaser.
Photographers chasing hurricanes.
This genre is mostly found in the United States, because many places in their western region are desolate, and the living conditions are as bad as those in northwest China. Hurricanes or tornadoes often pass through, and storm chasers are people who chase tornadoes.
