Editor's note
If there are some things that are not taken, no one can see them. And photographers are a key part of this.
To thank the news media workers for their contribution to society, the Anhui Branch of Perfect (China) Co., Ltd. specially cooperated with Hewan Media to bring you closer to several senior photographers.
For many years, they have measured the city with their steps, recorded the beauty with their lens, and conveyed warmth with their thoughts. It was them who used the camera to freeze up from above on the scene; used the camera to record the clear water of the canal diverted rivers and the Huai River to connect to the north and south; used the camera to capture the graceful cattails and flying birds on the shore of Chaohu Lake; used the camera to record the unity and unity of the whole world during epidemic prevention and flood control; used the camera to present the "pocket-sized" mother's great love in the world.
What does it mean when time is calculated in years?
insists on it, and loves
. These two words
are used to describe Zheng Chenggong is just right
Zheng Chenggong, now director of the picture network operation department of Hefei Daily Media Group Hewan Media Visual Integration Media Center, transferred to Hefei Evening News in 1991. During his 31-year career as a reporter, he used his lens to record the changes in the lives of Hefei people and witnessed the growth of Hefei's city.
Zheng Chenggong has been engaged in interview work for decades.
Riding a bicycle and entering life
Entering In the fourth year of working in Hefei Evening News , Zheng Chenggong won the China News Award .
In the early days of entering the industry, with a love for photography, Zheng Chenggong always likes to ride a bicycle and walk around the streets with a camera on his shoulder. This winning photo was born in this process.
One day, when Zheng Chenggong was riding a bicycle by Hongxing Road in Hefei, he saw a photo studio with many beautiful portrait photos hanging in the window. He instinctively stopped and admired for a while.
Then, several little girls came to the photo studio together to pick up their personal photos. Zheng Chenggong saw them standing in front of the door happily discussing who had the good photos. He immediately took out his camera and captured this beautiful moment, named it "Don't Hang the Stars and Hang Itself".

"In that era, many young people originally hung large photos of celebrities at home. As black and white portrait art photography became popular, I saw young women in Hefei starting to take photos of themselves and take them home and hang them up, and they didn't hang stars anymore. I thought it was very interesting. I think this means that everyone's lives and thoughts began to change."
Later, this photo was selected by People's Daily , China Youth Daily , China Women's Daily , China Women's Daily , etc., and won the 1994 China News Award and was also printed in the brochure of World Women's Congress .
sticking to the industry for more than 30 years. Zheng Chenggong watched Hefei change little by little. It can be said that under his lens, the development context of Hefei is clearly visible.
In 2005, the Twin Towers of the Hefei Municipal Government’s new building were still under construction. When Zheng Chenggong went to shoot, he looked around and felt the word “empty”. There was even vegetable fields around him, and someone planted beans in it. At that time, if you want to take a big scene, you could only rely on your "foot strength" to climb a tall building.

Nowadays, in the pictures taken by Zheng Chenggong, the shores of Swan Lake are already prosperous, and the tall buildings standing have refreshed the "city skyline" of Hefei. If you want to install them all into the picture, you have to use a "new weapon" aerial photography aircraft. “The equipment has also developed with the city."Zheng Chenggong smiled.

"And our city construction has really put Hefei on the fast lane of development. "Zheng Chenggong said that in the past, there were Jinzhai Road Elevated, Wenzhong Road Elevated, and Changjiang Road Elevated. Nowadays, not only are there elevated roads in the southeast and northwest, but there are also many rail transit lines. It is becoming easier for people outside to come to Hefei. "In recent years, the airport has changed from Luogang to Xinqiao, and Hefei has also had a high-speed rail South Station. I am still recording the entire process of the construction of new Hefei West Station . Whether in the past or in the past ten years, Hefei's development is obvious to all. "
