this period Zhao Xuecai age: after 80's hobby: a bright spot: Ji'nan's earliest batch of people who have organized various forms of violence.
Zhao Xuecai, net name wood shadow, after 80, life with sex, like where to go, where to write, and then shoot where. In 2006, shortly after graduation, he began to launch various urban runaway activities in Ji'nan. The great team, through the dark tiger spring, through the bustle of the ten roads, saw the beauty of the "one city and a half city lake" in Ji'nan, and personally felt the helplessness of the "fog and haze." He felt that the storm could feel the corner and fall of the city, and at the same time, it was a way of looking at life.

[b] for the first time to let more people see the real Ji'nan [/b]
a pair of black rim round frame glasses, white T - shirt printed on "play mud legs", first see wood shadow, I feel a literary model, but also with a local flavor of Ji'nan.
2006, the bean flap and other community websites quietly rose, and Mu Ying joined a lot of young people around them. "At that time, I had just graduated from the mountain, and I was eager to have a group of people to communicate, and the storm represented a green way of travel."
the slogan of the first runaway, "I am, I love". Mu Ying grew up in the southern mountain area of Ji'nan, a beautiful village. Later, he studied at Shandong University and almost never left Ji'nan.
the first storm of wood shadow organization, because of the city of Ji'nan, "in ordinary people's remarks about the city of Ji'nan is a little disappointed, muggy weather, not a developed economy, there is a feeling of not loving. If you want to take a walk in the streets of the city and see the real Ji'nan, if we want the city to be good, the city will be better.
for the first time, 50 people took part in the first storm. The route was from botanical garden to Grand View Garden. "The ten way represents modern times, and the Grand View Garden is a kind of past." Wood shadow said, when walking and chatting, while walking to see, tired but very happy.
[b] is in a variety of ways to experience urban culture [/b]
during the first run, and Mu Ying is also seeing Ji'nan differently for the first time. Subsequently, it launched a number of activities, and it has its own characteristics. But in his view, the storm is no longer a simple way of walking, but also with a humanistic color. "A few latitudes of the storm" selected the old lanes similar to the two weft seven, with tall French trees on the roadside and ancient brick buildings. Now, the location of the wooden shadow has moved to the ancient house of two latitude and seven, a wooden gate. "The urban development is lagging behind, but the humanistic atmosphere is thicker, and the neighborhood is more Ji'nan." A "dating rash" is a way to go away in an indefinite time. "Everyone's work is becoming more and more busy, and there is not much time in their spare time, so we think of such a way of running away. "Ji'nan, wait and see", in 2012, a haze attacked Ji'nan, wood shadow launched a storm to declare war on PM2.5. Starting from Qianfo Hill, through the tourist road, we finally arrived at Shan Jian Da, and more than 30 people took part in the 28 km journey. "It was a bold attempt and the only one. At that time, it was deliberately chosen on a haze day, which was the worst air passage in Ji'nan. It had a feeling of chest tightness and felt Ji'nan after pollution.
[b] rob a feeling of an all the way to the mentality of [/b]
in the wood shadow blog, he used words and photographs to record the story of the storm, from his home in Huang Chao, to the streets of Ji'nan, the simple villager, and a rush worker. From the first storm to the present, in 7 years, he has transformed from a college student into a professional man. "The violence has become a way of seeing life," he said. "Although sooner or later, it will not be young, but because of the violence, there is a state of mind that is always on the way." Today, Mu Ying is a creative director in an advertising company. In the storm, Mu Ying records many people and scenery. In the Wangfu pond, an old man, "he is a very fond person, can remember all the names of all springs in Ji'nan." In the black tiger spring, in the early morning, people take a stroll in the water. "Here is a kettle for water. Anyone can use it. It is called a Lei Feng pot. In Ji'nan, the industrious people drink the spring water. "
Mu Ying says that he likes to go somewhere in Ji'nan to be demolished, such as Wei Jia Zhuang, the building can be demolished, but the memory can not be removed.
[b] has become accustomed to using violence to understand strange cities [/b]
in the memory of Mu Ying, each time she has a different experience. In a hot summer day, a black night is a good night's experience. "One time, in the early morning, a man broke into Qianfo Hill. It had just rained, and his shoes were wet through the water. They took off their shoes and went up the hill. On the stone board, there is rain down the flow down, the summer stone is still hot, but the stone plate is very smooth, there is a natural feeling, the afternoon down the mountain, Qianfo Hill is illuminated by the lights, very beautiful, "Mu Ying said, many people will yearn for the distant scenery, but the scenery under the foot is also not bad.
now, the storm has become a way for wood to understand a city. In Kaifeng, Xi'an, Chongqing... Every strange city, he will go on a storm, "choose a point in the city, and then go where to calculate, the last time in Nanjing, the storm, the city of sweet scented osmanthus, became the most beautiful memory of the city."
