A Trip to Chongqing Changed the Life Track
瀟瀟來(lái)自摩爾多瓦,年紀(jì)不大,卻已在重慶呆了足足四年。
2014年9月,瀟瀟和幾個(gè)同學(xué)隨舞蹈老師到重慶旅游,呆了一個(gè)月時(shí)間。 在這期間,重慶讓她印象深刻。
“晚上,我們開(kāi)車行駛在千廝門大橋上,嘉陵江兩岸燈火璀璨,天空都被照亮了。”瀟瀟至今還記得第一次看到重慶夜景時(shí)的場(chǎng)景,“我覺(jué)得重慶最漂亮的夜景,還是晚上沿江的建筑物和街燈在水面形成倒影的畫面,五彩斑斕,感覺(jué)是岸上水下各有一個(gè)城市,非常震撼?!?/p>
令瀟瀟沒(méi)有想到的是,這趟重慶旅行改變了她的人生軌跡。
瀟瀟性格爽朗,曾在摩爾多瓦國(guó)家舞蹈學(xué)院學(xué)習(xí)芭蕾舞和民族舞,“如果沒(méi)有來(lái)中國(guó),我可能會(huì)是一名舞蹈演員,或者是一名老師?!睘t瀟停頓了一下,不忘幽默地調(diào)侃自己,“也許是一名警察,因?yàn)檫@是我從小的夢(mèng)想。但我現(xiàn)在在重慶,拍抖音,當(dāng)‘網(wǎng)紅’?!?/p>
瀟瀟的母語(yǔ)是羅馬尼亞語(yǔ),在學(xué)校時(shí)學(xué)過(guò)俄語(yǔ)。不會(huì)中文,也不會(huì)英文,但是她發(fā)現(xiàn),在重慶,就算不會(huì)中文,也能生活得很好。“語(yǔ)言不通,啥子問(wèn)題都沒(méi)得。重慶人非常熱情,我找不到路,用手機(jī)軟件翻譯,他們都會(huì)告訴我啷個(gè)走,有時(shí)候還會(huì)帶我走到目的地?!彼玫氐赖闹貞c話告訴我們。
摩爾多瓦距重慶七千多公里,加上轉(zhuǎn)機(jī)時(shí)間,坐飛機(jī)需要兩天。在那趟旅行后不到一個(gè)月,18歲的瀟瀟就再次登上了飛往重慶的航班。
Xiaoxiao is from Moldova and has been in Chongqing for four years though she is quite young.
In September 2014, Xiaoxiao and several students spent a month in Chongqing with her dance teacher. During that period, Chongqing impressed her very much.
“We drove on the Qiansimen Bridge at night.The lights on both sides of the Jialing River were lit up and the sky was illuminated.”Xiaoxiao still remembered the scene when she saw the night scene in Chongqing for the first time.“I think the most beautiful night scene in Chongqing is the reflection of the buildings and street lights along the river at night. It is very colorful. It seems that there is another underwater city opposite to the real city on the shore. That's very shocking. ”
What Xiaoxiao didn’t expect was that the trip to Chongqing changed her life path.
Xiaoxiao has a good personality and studied ballet and folk dance at the National Dance Academy of Moldova.“If I didn't come to China, I might be a dancer or a teacher.”Xiaoxiao paused for a moment and did not forget to ridicule herself humorously.“Maybe I'll be a policewoman, because this is my dream from childhood.”But I am now in Chongqing, shoot videos on Douyin, and is an ‘online celebrity’. ”
Xiaoxiao’s mother tongue is Romanian and she also studied Russian at school. She speaks no Chinese or English, but she finds that she can live very well in Chongqing even if she couldn’t speak Chinese.“Even if I have difficulties in language, all problems can be properly solved. Chongqing people are very enthusiastic. When I can’t find a way, I use mobile phone software to translate my questions,and they will tell me the direction and sometimes take me to the destination.”She told us in authentic Chongqing dialect.
Moldova is more than 7,000 kilometers away from Chongqing. It will take two days on the plane including the transiting. Less than a month after the trip, the 18-year-old Xiaoxiao once again boarded a flight to Chongqing.
“I Learn Chinese in Order to Live in China All My Life”
來(lái)到重慶,瀟瀟在左手手臂內(nèi)側(cè)刺了一道紋身,她舉起白皙的左臂給我們看,一排“學(xué)中文:為了一輩子在中國(guó)!”的繁體漢字格外顯眼。
通過(guò)自學(xué),瀟瀟如今能說(shuō)一口流利的普通話和重慶話。但她學(xué)中文的方式很特別,靠看電視劇和聽(tīng)中文歌。
或許是因?yàn)閺男W(xué)舞蹈的緣故,瀟瀟對(duì)肢體語(yǔ)言特別敏感,“看到電視劇里的人拿杯子喝水,我就會(huì)猜測(cè)他是不是在說(shuō)喝水的意思?!?/p>
為學(xué)好中文,瀟瀟花了很多心思琢磨中國(guó)人如何說(shuō)話,“中國(guó)人和外國(guó)人說(shuō)話時(shí),表情有很大的區(qū)別,外國(guó)人表情很夸張,很容易知道他是否生氣了,或者是開(kāi)心。而中國(guó)人的表情就比較難猜,因?yàn)橹袊?guó)人生氣了可能會(huì)皺一皺眉頭,或者不說(shuō)話,有的人也不會(huì)發(fā)火,就很難知道他們的內(nèi)心想法?!?/p>
說(shuō)著說(shuō)著,瀟瀟掏出手機(jī),打開(kāi)抖音APP,要我們看她最近發(fā)的短視頻。視頻里,瀟瀟模仿外國(guó)人和中國(guó)人不同的喝酒方式,其中還有她模仿重慶人喝酒劃拳的段子,特別有趣。
“語(yǔ)言很有魅力,不管是我的母語(yǔ)羅馬尼亞語(yǔ),還是俄語(yǔ)、英語(yǔ)和漢語(yǔ),它是一個(gè)國(guó)家或地區(qū)文化最直觀的表現(xiàn)?!闭f(shuō)話間,瀟瀟不忘插科打諢,“我不是就靠重慶話成了‘網(wǎng)紅’嗎?”
現(xiàn)在,瀟瀟的重慶話和普通話已經(jīng)能夠自如切換,她的普通話甚至比不少重慶人說(shuō)得還標(biāo)準(zhǔn),她就常常糾正給她拍抖音視頻的攝影老師,要區(qū)分平舌和翹舌。
When she came to Chongqing, Xiaoxiao stabbed a tattoo inside of her left arm. She lifted her white arm to show us a row of Chinese“I learn Chinese in order to live in China all my life,”which was stabbed with particularly conspicuous traditional Chinese characters.
Through self-study, Xiaoxiao can now speak fluent Mandarin and Chongqing dialect. But her way of learning Chinese is very special, she learn Chinese by watching TV dramas and listening to Chinese songs.
Perhaps because Xiaoxiao learned dancing from her elementary school, she is particularly sensitive to body language.“When I see people in the TV series taking a cup of water, I will guess if he is talking about drinking water. ”
In order to master Chinese as far as possible,Xiaoxiao spent a lot of time on considering how Chinese people talk.“When the Chinese speak with a foreigner, their expressions are very different.The expression on the foreigner's face is very exaggerated, so it is easy to know if he is angry or happy. The expression of the Chinese is more difficult to guess, because the Chinese may frown or may not speak when they are angry. Some Chinese will not get angry, so it is difficult to know their true feelings. ”
While talking, Xiaoxiao takes out her phone,opens the Douyin APP, and asks us to watch her recent short videos. In the video, Xiaoxiao used to imitate the different ways of drinking by foreigners and Chinese people. In addition, she also imitated the way that Chongqing people drink and fingerguessing game (a drinking game at feasts), which are especially interesting.
“The language is very attractive. Whether my native is Romanian, Russian, English or Chinese,the language is the most intuitive expression of a country or region.”When speaking, Xiaoxiao said,“It was Chongqing dialect that made me become an‘online celebrity.’ ”
Now, Xiaoxiao has been able to switch between Chongqing dialect and Mandarin freely,and her Mandarin is even more standard than many Chongqing people. She often corrects her photography teacher who shoots videos for her to distinguish between Blade-alveolars and Retroflexes.
A Foreign City Will Become the Hometown When One Lives Here for a Long Time
瀟瀟身材瘦挑,皮膚白皙,一頭淺棕色的頭發(fā)下,五官精致立體,特別是那雙典型的東歐大雙眼,深邃有神。
去年三月,瀟瀟回摩爾多瓦呆了兩周?;氐郊亦l(xiāng)后,她卻感到有些不適應(yīng),“我發(fā)現(xiàn)自己特別想念重慶小面,想回重慶,尤其是在街上走路時(shí),特別想聽(tīng)到重慶話,而不是我們羅馬尼亞語(yǔ)?!?/p>
從那時(shí)起,瀟瀟才發(fā)現(xiàn)自己已經(jīng)真正愛(ài)上了重慶。
“在重慶生活,什么都很方便,我居住的樓下,有24小時(shí)超市,隨時(shí)都可以去買菜。還有一間24小時(shí)健身房,晚上11點(diǎn)吃完燒烤后,半夜三點(diǎn)再去健身房燃燒一下卡路里。但摩爾多瓦不一樣,晚上八點(diǎn)后,街上就沒(méi)什么人了?!痹谥貞c生活了四年,瀟瀟逐漸融入了重慶的生活。
2017年,在重慶好友的鼓勵(lì)下,瀟瀟開(kāi)始接觸短視頻拍攝。今年初,瀟瀟玩起了抖音,搞怪的風(fēng)格加上一口流利的重慶話,受到很多人的喜愛(ài)。
“因?yàn)槎兑?,越?lái)越多的人認(rèn)識(shí)了我。在街上,常會(huì)有人和我打招呼。”瀟瀟笑得很甜美,“美拍APP上,我有50萬(wàn)粉絲,在抖音上有100萬(wàn)粉絲?!?/p>
隨著粉絲量的增多,瀟瀟還收到了不少影視劇拍攝的橄欖枝,其中就有《惡魔少爺別吻我》。今年9月,一部愛(ài)奇藝自制的電影也在邀請(qǐng)瀟瀟去拍攝,“我很滿意現(xiàn)在的生活,感謝重慶帶給我的幸運(yùn)?!?/p>
Xiaoxiao is thin and tall, with the fair skin,and light brown hair, five exquisite sense organs.Especially, her typical Eastern European eyes are brimming with radiating vigor.
In March last year, Xiaoxiao returned to Moldova and stayed there for two weeks. After returning her hometown, she felt a little uncomfortable.“I found myself particularly missing Chongqing spicy noodles and wanted to go back to Chongqing. Especially when walking on the street, I especially wanted to hear Chongqing dialect, not Romanian. ”
Since then, Xiaoxiao have found that she have really fallen in love with Chongqing.
“Living in Chongqing, I find that everything is very convenient. There is a 24-hour supermarket downstairs where I live and I can go shopping at any time. There is also a 24-hour gym. After enjoying the barbecue at 11:00 pm, I can go to the gym to burn calories at three o’clock in the middle of the night. But everything in Moldova is rather different.After 20:00 pm, there is no one on the street.”After living in Chongqing for four years, Xiaoxiao gradually integrates into Chongqing’s life.
In 2017, with the encouragement of her friends in Chongqing, Xiaoxiao started to contacted short video shooting. At the beginning of this year, Xiaoxiao contacted Douyin APP. A funny style and the fluent Chongqing dialect made her be loved by many people.
“Because of Douyin APP, more and more people have learned about me. People often say hello to me on the street.”Xiaoxiao laughed very sweetly.“On the Meipai APP, I have 500,000 fans, and there are 1 million fans on the Douyin APP. ”
With the increase in the number of fans,Xiaoxiao has also been invited by many film and TV play shooting teams, including The Devil Master, Don’t Kiss Me. In September of this year, an iQiyi-made movie also invited Xiaoxiao to take part in the shooting.“I am very satisfied with the present life, thanks for the luck that Chongqing has brought me.”
