I'm talking about teenagers going crazy!

Life, an eternal topic, has not been fully understood so far. Different ages have different feelings. If your pursuit of life remains unchanged for 20 years, you may be different in the eyes of others. If you can persist for 30 years, you will become admirable, even admirable. With the fermentation of time, in the eyes of others, people who persist in pursuing their own lives are great people.

There are few great men, and Zong Tongchang is indeed one of them. I am great because I have lived in the old age for 35 years and have been persistently pursuing the perfection of life, but this perfection is only a very common thing. This year, Zong Lao and Haval H9 set off again on the road of pursuing a perfect life and headed for the holy land in their hearts-Ali.

The first surprise of life is Ali, a remote, mysterious and unknown land, whose rich cultural relics and peculiar natural landscape have always attracted explorers and archaeological teams all over the world. As early as the beginning of last century, Swedish explorer Sven? He Ding entered Ali from Xinjiang. Since then, Ali has become famous in Europe. Ali's civilization, Ali's humanity, and Ali's landform have made countless European explorers who yearn for oriental civilization come to inspect, and at this time, China people may know nothing about Ali. A century later, Ali area is still strange to many people. The encounter between Zong Lao and Ali was in the 1980s, 1979, when Zong Lao was transferred from an art magazine to the Palace Museum to take photos of cultural relics, which prompted Zong Lao to participate in the Tibetan Ali cultural relics exploration organized by National Cultural Heritage Administration for the first time on 1985 and go to work in Tibet. It is because of Zong Tongchang's trip to Tibet that he and Ali formed an indissoluble bond.

Zong Lao still remembers his first trip to Tibet. When he recalled his first trip to Tibet, the great liberation car made in China trudged on the frozen soil on the plateau. The wheels tread on the snow and run over the mud, and the wheels and axles are inharmonious and twisted, which makes people worry that they will stop because of vehicle problems all the time. "The scientific investigation at that time was undoubtedly an adventure", which was Zong Lao's deepest impression on the scientific investigation in the 1980s. No matter how difficult the conditions are, the exploration of Zong Lao never stops. The first time I visited the Cizancourt site, I was surrounded by dangers. At that time, the materials were very tight, and the research team had to rely on limited resources to complete the work to the maximum extent. Everyone hasn't fully adapted to the high rebellion, and Zong Lao's filming work is in full swing, but the huge load still makes him ill. He had a high fever for three days in a row and survived on mung bean porridge in a state of lack of medical care and medicine. This may be another manifestation of Zong Lao's tough character.

Different scenery

Without that insistence, the discovery of Guge site would not have made great progress. It has achieved a milestone miracle in China's scientific research. Although this is the joint efforts of the older generation of researchers, Guge civilization has indeed become clear and concrete because of the images taken by Zong Lao, and it is world-famous.

"The value of Guge civilization is not commensurate with its current popularity. In fact, regardless of the scale and momentum of the site or the aesthetic shock of the murals, Guge civilization is no less than Loulan. Some of Guge's murals can also be compared with Dunhuang murals. But Guge is not as famous as Loulan and Dunhuang. One of the reasons for this situation is that it is not at the crossroads of cultural exchanges between the East and the West like Loulan and Dunhuang. Second, culturally, Guge is strange to us who are used to the civilization of the Central Plains. " Fortunately, since 1985, Zong Lao has visited the most mysterious kingdom in western China again and again. He used words and pictures to reveal the secrets of Guge, an ancient civilization. It's been 35 years now. (photography? Zong Tongchang) In Zong Lao's view, many archaeologists are good at academic research and many explorers are good at overcoming difficulties and obstacles, and he has one more skill than the first two, that is, photography. In the eyes of a photographer, beauty is everywhere, and there are different life scenery everywhere. In his view, the camera should not record the magnificence of Tibet, but should record the civilization, humanity and feelings of Tibet. Therefore, when you open Baidu Encyclopedia and appreciate Zong Lao's photographic works, you will find that his works are all-encompassing, and the geographical customs and cultural features of Tibet are three-dimensional Tibet under his lens, which is a fascinating Tibet.

"Every time I go to Tibet, I will appreciate different scenery, so I have been to Tibet for more than 30 years and have more than a dozen scientific examinations, just to discover different Tibet and let people who don't know Tibet know Tibet through me." This is a footnote that Zong Lao inadvertently pursued all his life. After being engaged in scientific research in Tibet for more than 35 years, Zong Lao has changed from an excellent young man to an old man with a joint hair. Recalling the changes of the times, the old man lamented that 35 years ago, we could only use 2 12 jeeps to liberate large trucks. By the 20th century, conditions had been greatly improved. At that time, when I entered Tibet for scientific research, I began to have the protection of imported cars. At that time, Japanese off-road vehicles were still the main reliable vehicles, but five or six vehicles had to go hand in hand to enter such a difficult environment, otherwise we could not guarantee complete safety and smoothness. Now with the progress of science and technology and the rapid development of automobile industry, our own brand cars can conquer Tibet, so Zong Lao began to talk about the Haval H9 he just bought. In Zong Lao's view, this car is specially produced for his needs. L2 automatic driving, car massage/ventilation/heating, excellent NVH and so on all have strong comfort, which can greatly reduce the fatigue caused by long-distance travel, which many hard-core off-road vehicles do not have. The "three locks" equipped for off-road function are even more necessary for going deep into danger. The most important thing is the crawling mode and the "tank turning" function. Since it is a scientific investigation, it will definitely go to places that are difficult for human beings to reach. The terrain in Tibet is very complicated, including mountains, glaciers, Gobi, deserts and swamps. And there are dangers and difficulties everywhere. These cross-country functions can reduce the difficulty of cross-country, better conquer obstacles and bring more convenience to Zong Lao's scientific research trip. From Zong Lao's description, we can hear Zong Lao's love and trust in this car.

With this Haval H9, Zonglao yearns for a life over 70 years old, and his belief in exploring the unknown becomes more and more firm. Needless to say, it can be seen from Zong Lao's eyes that what he wants is "endless life and exploration!" , is "the expedition! Go where you yearn for, for the ideal in your heart, for the perfect life! " .

Zong Lao's motto "Many people have nothing to do and many important things have not been done" is not only a portrayal of his own life, but also describes for us what a teenager should look like. This is also the reason why the Zonglao Association chose Haval H9 as the "post-00 generation" in the next year. It is difficult, but it must be beautiful to be able to walk out of a road that no one else has walked together in their respective fields. In this expedition, Zong Lao chose a car and four people to face the severe test of Tibet, once again appreciate the different scenery in life and practice his life creed of endless exploration. What gave him strong confidence was his life experience of conquering Tibet for 35 years, and Haval H9 behind him, simple and tenacious, which can conquer everything.

Last year, Zong Lao and three friends who are both ancient and rare old people gathered on the snowy mountain and held a "hot spring party", which was a miracle. We expect Zong Lao and his white Haval H9 to bring us more surprises in life this year! ?
