Zhou Wei, a freelance photographer, writes a composition about celebrities.

Dark skin, wearing a camouflage hat on his head, and a pair of unbreakable black-rimmed glasses on his nose. At first glance, you can know that he is a person who works outdoors all the year round. Looking obliquely at the top can make people realize his wisdom, ego and stubbornness. He is a famous freelance photographer? Zhou Wei.

Zhou Wei started his career as a pastry chef. At noon and at night, when others are resting, he goes outside to take some beautiful pictures. Cover the doors and windows with waste cloth at night and develop the film in the darkroom. After that, Zhou Wei became the host and editor in chief. These occupations that looked good at that time didn't satisfy Zhou Wei. He always felt that he didn't want that life. At this time, a freelance photographer friend took Zhou Wei to take photos in southern Anhui. After returning, Zhou Wei finally found a job that satisfied him? Freelance photographer.

Zhou Wei quit his well-paid job and started his photographic journey, but he met many objections from his family and society, but Zhou Wei was very stubborn, and he overcame them one by one. Not only that, Zhou Wei is an introvert, but he tries his best to overcome his psychological obstacles and bravely deal with strangers. Zhou Wei's shooting location is mostly the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. In that snow-covered no man's land, there may be avalanches and mudslides, or you may accidentally freeze your hands when shooting too seriously. Zhou Wei frequented the plateau for countless times. The cost of going in and out of the plateau is also very expensive, so he went to some commercial organizations to advertise and let them make money.

For the first time, Zhou Wei walked between the two rivers on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau for 19 days. It is in this cold and desolate place that he is fighting loneliness, he is fighting danger, and he is using his life to complete his work. In a speech, he simply said that he felt the limits of his body and will, but I could feel his difficulties in The Source of Two Rivers.

Not only that, Zhou Wei also served as a special photographer for chinese national geography, and also made the documentary Blue River, which won international awards and published many books, benefiting a lot. His tireless spirit is worth learning.
