Did the royal photographer in Wong Kar-wai capture the most ambiguous and sexy side of the pattern men and women?

Xia Yongkang was born in Hongkong and graduated from emily carr University of Art and Design. He held an art exhibition and worked as a graphic designer for a while. Entrusted by his later friends, he began to help his friends shoot album covers, which also helped him find a way to make money. However, Xia Yongkang, who is keen on expressing himself, always tries to incorporate more ideas into the cover characters he shoots, without considering too many commercial factors.

It is precisely because Xia Yongkang's photographic works retained too many "self" factors and his photographic style was a bit avant-garde, so it was not recognized by the society at that time. His semi-nude art photos are still avant-garde, but the record sales are not ideal.

But what Xia Yongkang himself didn't expect was that it was this kind of "innocence" in his bones, his persistence in art, not being immersed in too much commercial atmosphere, and Wong Kar-wai, who is also avant-garde and loves to try new things, took a fancy to it.

Later, I went to Spring Break to shoot Leslie Cheung, and my brother was very angry at the scene and felt that it affected his shooting. Later, Xia Yongkang said that Wong Kar-wai came to me to shoot, and I had to shoot. After listening to the explanation, Leslie Cheung was very moved and thought: "I have reprimanded you, and it is very rare for you to insist on filming me." They became good friends because of this. Leslie Cheung also said to Xia Yongkang: "From today on, you can take pictures of me later."

The classic poster of "Spring is bursting" is set in the sky of Argentina, showing the scene of two leading men "rolling" together. Xia Yongkang said: "When taking this photo, Tony Leung Chiu Wai and Leslie Cheung were very relaxed. Leslie Cheung always encourages me and gives me room to keep trying. " Because of this filming, Xia Yongkang and a friendship were realized.

Even if today's business society is so impetuous, he always has his own garden in his heart. "Now what I shoot is getting simpler and simpler, and it is more and more suitable for me. This is not in the reputation. This is a very real thing. "

Brilliant.
