long hair, cool, rebellious and cold, no wonder some netizens called her the documentary industry "Little Dragon Girl".
But Xiaolongnu met "Yang Guo", which is destined.
That day, Elizabeth was attending the summit, and a male voice suddenly stopped her:
"That... I'm going to give a speech later, do you want to come and have a look?"
Looking back, he is a black and strong boy. He is not tall. Because of the long-term sun exposure, he thought he was a Tibetan guy.
Smile, two rows of big white teeth are as bright as snow in the valley.
who are you?
as cold as Elizabeth, and raised her eyebrows: will not go.
boy could only embarrassingly go on stage. Halfway through the talk, he saw a pair of starry eyes shining with glimmer.
"She is still here."
More than a few years later, Jin Guowei, who married the beauty, couldn't hide his smile whenever he recalled.
He understands that he is different from her.
My parents are both librarians and live in a small town in Minnesota.
"There are corn fields around." Jin Guowei smiled.
Jin's father said that he should learn eighteen martial arts.
years old learn violin , participated in swimming competitions at the age of 7, and
3 years old, he won the youngest Taekwondo black belt in the state.
Jinfu said: People cannot forget their roots.
Guowei opens his mouth and needs Speaking Mandarin . If you speak English, my dad will pretend to be deaf.
"At home, I will speak Chinese to you!"
This doesn't count.
National power practice Tai Chi and calligraphy . My father told him Shaolin Temple stories :
"National power, you must be like the floor-sweeping monk in Shaolin Temple, hiding it deep and not revealing it, so that you can get the true scriptures."
National power is still young and don't understand its meaning.
He only knows that he must study all A, because his parents hope that he will be a doctor, lawyer and boss in the future .
But this is so big that he almost made his dad crazy.
Jin Guowei grew up in the plains, became fascinated by the mountains.
8 years old, he joined the university alpine skiing team, and listened to his seniors' awesomeness to climb the peak, and he was very moved;
0 years old, he turned down his internship in Washington, DC, and worked as a waiter in the national park. During shifts, he climbed to the top of the first mountain;
3 years old, after graduating from college, he told his parents that I am going to climb the west.
"They can't understand. They spent so much money to train me, but I went to the mountains to commit suicide... no one supported me."
This young man who was abandoned by the world decided to prove his dream step by step.
he trekked through the uninhabited Tibet Qiangtang Plateau , recording the endangered Tibet antelope .
he climbed the phenomenon of Himalayas , the avalanche almost killed him.
He traveled through the valley in the blizzard and avoided falling rocks in the strong wind. He used his camera to record the sunrises that reached the peak one by one.
He said, I want to show it to my parents.
Jin Guowei's works have been recognized by National Geography , and an exhibition was held to invite his parents to attend.
After reading my son's work, my parents felt relieved on the spot.
Perhaps it was because my son saw the mountains of his hometown for the sake of his two old people.
Perhaps these photos reminded my mother of the heavy snow in Harbin.
Since then, Jin Guowei has become famous in the outdoor circle and keeps cheating on the road of "death".
In 2011, he and his companions challenged , the most dangerous "shark fin" in Meilu Peak, , and recorded the whole process for a lifetime.
But the film comes out, it is average.
The summit that day, I first met the documentary "Little Dragon Girl" Elizabeth. He gritted his teeth and asked: Miss Chai, give me some advice?
said to give some advice, but in fact, I was secretly convinced.
"I was so beautiful at first sight that I was suffocated. Xiao Chai is a fairy." To this day, he still praises him in a mess.
However, three months have passed.
can no longer be read back.
Jin Guowei felt a chill in his heart and thought: "A. She doesn't like movies, B. She doesn't like me. "
is not.
At that time, people were still shooting movies in the war zone, so how could they have time to reply to emails?
After returning, Elizabeth found Jin Guowei as soon as possible:
"The film is very good, it's almost something."
"Human taste."
"The Meilu Peak you photographed has brothers and blood, but when I saw you being swallowed by an avalanche, what I thought was:
How worried are those who love you? "
The meaning of climbing is not to commit suicide, but to see that the end of the journey is not the end of the world, but to go home.
At that moment, Jin Guowei's heart trembled: Finally someone understands me.
From that day on, he and her started dating.
Perhaps, this is the so-called meeting at the peak, and it is evenly matched .
In 2013, the two got married.
reporter described this way:
national prestige is the towering mountains, the small firewood is the melting water of the iceberg, and one hard and one soft.
He specializes in the thrilling and reality of outdoor shooting. She is good at giving content emotions and thinking.
"This is called a perfect match." Elizabeth smiled.
The Condor Heroes, invincible.
"Meru Peak" was rated as the best adventure documentary in the past decade. "Barehanded Rock Climbing" broke $2930,000 in box office, winning the Oscar in one fell swoop.
That night, her fairy skirt was flying, his suit was straight, he hugged her, and smiled into an emoticon.
But what impressed me the most was that in the English interview, Jin Guowei replied in fluent Mandarin:
"I hope one day I can go back to China to make documentaries. We all love China."
I think he has never forgotten his father's words.
Now, Jin Guowei is 49 years old and Elizabeth is 44 years old. He has given birth to a daughter and a man.
Every Spring Festival, they will let children wear Chinese red , small cheongsam, red hair circle, lively.
They go skiing, climbing, and kissing the wind in the forest.
In the interview, someone asked Elizabeth whether her children would become outdoor explorers in the future.
She smiled bitterly and said, "It's okay, If you are as dangerous as his father, forget it..."
"You should study as crazy as I was when I was a child and be a poet."
But now, both kids fall in love with rock climbing , and it's out of control... l5 Couples often "blam" each other for this:
"Look, your dad has a great influence."
"I just like outdoors, Your mom is much more rebellious than me, and others dare to go to war."
After saying that, she looked at him and smiled sweetly.
Many years ago, the companion who climbed with Jin Guowei once described the couple like this:
"Guowei is brave and chic, but very gentle inside, Elizabeth is delicate in literature and delicate, but she is particularly firm in her heart."
"She is like the rope he climbed the mountain , the two of them side by side, crossing mountains and hills."
"She is like the rope he climbed the mountain , the two of them walked side by side, crossing mountains and hills."
"I never knew what word to use to summarize the feeling they gave me."
"Later I learned a Chinese word from them."
"xiake, knight."
meet at the peak, evenly matched, and traveled around the world.
