Shaw War: Logged into Korea for the Love of a City "City of Wonders" As an artist with international reach, it's no surprise that Shaw's film and TV work has been broadcast in many countries. But recently, he was involved in the recording of City of Wonders, a slow variety documentary presented by a Korean television station, so I have to say it was great. City of Miracles is an urban documentary exploration program produced by Youku that takes as its starting point craftsmen, foodies and artists living in the city and introduces the stories of people with inner-city spirit. The program invites six famous artists, including Xiao Zhan, to six cities, including Chongqing, to explore the cultural core of these six cities and the inner spirit of their people from the personal perspective of the celebrities. For the first time, the artists in the program are "transformed" to show their real, grounded side, which is different from the one in the spotlight. Through their perspective, they conveyed their love for their hometown and their cultural confidence. At that time, Xiao Zhan returned to Chongqing as the city's tourism ambassador for the documentary "City of Miracles", which caused a sensation. It is said that a private student followed Xiao's car, but Xiao, with his knowledge of Chongqing, drove through its streets and managed to lose all the stalkers. 2020, I have seen the ups and downs of the world and Xiao, and watching the show again, I have a feeling of "so you are still here". In "City of Miracles," Xiao talks about his relationship with the city of Chongqing, saying, "The public perception of me may be that I look quiet, but I'm actually a very Chongqing character at heart, especially fierce." Fans have also compiled a list of places he has visited on the show, which include the cozy Edge Noodle Village and Jun's Book House. These are the same places that many Xiao War fans are now hitting. They have even attracted some fans from many foreign countries to hit Chongqing. The City of Miracles impresses not only with Xiao's stardom, but also with his genuine love for Chongqing. There is an interview at the end of the show. He summed it up by saying, "Chongqing is a complex city. It has a futuristic punk feel, you can see tall buildings built in the mountains, which is amazing, but around the corner you see people talking, playing mahjong, playing cards, kids laughing, it's very simple." The director said afterwards that the interview was impromptu and that Shaw had not prepared. But Shaw uses precise and brilliant language to express the character of the city and his love for Chongqing. That's the profound charm of Shaw's cultural heritage, which encapsulates the documentary's content. In the documentary, one can see a strong and fiery Xiao War. He carries the charisma of a big star and enjoys the dull happiness of his family in his hometown, just like you and me. He is afraid of the rats in the bomb shelter and is ashamed to say he has a popular face when others praise him. He ate too much spicy food, developed diarrhea, and made no secret of the fact that he had diarrhea, wild diarrhea, and still has it. Chungking's ears were mentioned. He says it's a very cute word, not a derogatory one. A man is a man I'm out in the wind and rain, face to face, back to the sky, back home to you all the love. Through Xiao Zhan, we get to know Chongqing and learn about Chongqing people. We immediately understand what kind of harmonious and loving family has created such a warm and healing Xiao Zhan. At this point, you see him as an ordinary kid living all around us. He is very kind and very warm! He is a very nice person. Carries fireworks, but shines like a superstar! That's him. Bright and healing, but sensitive and subtle, warm and affectionate, but calm and detached! This is what we do. Because a man fell in love with a city. Because of Xiao Zhaoge, many people have fallen in love with Chongqing, the charming capital. Because I like you, I want to know your educational background. Because I like you, I want to know about your country and everything about it. There are many ways to export your culture, and the celebrity effect is one of the most direct ways. He is an opportunity and an entry point. People often extend their love for their favorite celebrity to the many aspects associated with him, and this cultural exportation is not passive, but full of fervor and a desire to get people actively exploring. Many of these people bring foreign fans who love Xiao to Chongqing, or make it their top destination to aspire to see for themselves the place where Xiao grew up. Chongqing's Xiao Zhan, the world's star. I hope our big star Xiao Zhan will take our beautiful Chongqing with him. I hope our star Xiao Zhan can take our beautiful Chongqing and the great country of our country away. We hope our star Xiao Zhan can take our beautiful Chongqing with him. |
