Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    From New York to Oslo, Norway, from Oslo to Tromso, and from Tromso to Svalbard.

    After three flights, Ye Wei arrived at the end of the world. It was already around two o'clock in the afternoon on August 16.

    Longyearbyen on the island is one of the northernmost permanent human settlements in the world. It has a population of less than 2,000. They are basically scientific researchers and tourism employees. They usually stay there for a few years and then leave with their school-age children.  The living and educational conditions on the island are too rudimentary.

    From mid-April to mid-to-late August is the daylight period in the archipelago, that is, it is daytime 24 hours a day.

    I have two sighting wishes when I go to the North Pole. One is the Northern Lights, and the other is polar bears. You have to be lucky to see them.  Of course, it was impossible to see the aurora during the day. He planned to stay until the afternoon of the 18th to go back to the prosperous Tromso to try his luck. He didn't see it last night; he would set out for Kenya in Africa on the afternoon of the 20th.

    After checking into the Radisson Blu Polar Hotel in the center of the town, Ye Wei went out alone and walked towards the city center not far away, where the only post office in the town was.

    Although the exhalation is foggy, the weather in summer is not cold, it can be about 6 degrees Celsius, but the strong wind makes the face a little painful.  He wore normally thick clothes, a windbreaker and thickened jeans, without wearing a fur hat or gloves. He carried a dark brown canvas travel bag on one shoulder.

    The town is not big. It is built against the mountains. The low-rise houses are in the Nordic style with triangular roofs. The whole house is painted in simple and bright colors, red, blue, yellow  ¡­Colorful, it¡¯s like walking into a fairy tale kingdom.

    But he felt that he came in the wrong season or made the wrong travel plan.  The sky is bright, not to mention the ice and snow, there is no snow at all, and there are beautiful vegetation and flowers growing in many places.  If it weren't for those houses, it would really feel like I'm in Salt Lake City.

    He didn¡¯t see a sled in front of the residential house, but he saw a few sled dogs tied up, but none of them barked at him, a foreign traveler.  Although there are the most Norwegians on the island, there are residents and tourists from all countries. No one is curious about him, and no one seems to know him.

    Soon, Ye Wei walked into the post office and began to send postcards, to family members and close friends, all with reindeer stamps on them.

    The last one belonged to the girl. He wanted to write a letter to her, so he sat at the small round wooden table and started writing with the letter paper he bought.  As he wrote, he picked up the densely written letter paper and crumpled it into a ball. He wrote several times and finally it became a ball of paper.

    He took a breath and decided to just send a postcard, writing only one sentence: "August 16, sincere greetings from the North Pole."

    After leaving the post office, Ye Wei walked south because he saw a small skatepark not far away.  Three children wearing helmets and ordinary shoes were running around, while two middle-aged mothers were laughing and chatting beside them.  He looked at the children and wondered what it was like to spend his childhood in extreme day and night.

    The two mothers noticed him, and one of them, a blonde woman, said hello: "Hello."

    "Hello." Ye Wei smiled at them, indicating that he had no ill intentions.  In a place like this, if Liz, who is of Norwegian descent, comes and speaks English, she won't be able to speak Norwegian, and neither will he.  He smiled and said: "My name is Wei Geye, a tourist from the United States. My sister Dorothy is about the same age as them. They are so cute."

    The blond woman suddenly said in surprise: "Oh, you are the movie genius, viy!" When she saw the tattoo on his finger, she was immediately convinced, "utrolig! Unbelievable!"

    This is not an isolated glacier. There is TV and the Internet. Those who often pay attention to Hollywood movies and entertainment will recognize viy 90% of the time.

    "Yes, I am." Ye Wei smiled. In fact, he didn't want to be recognized. He had already arrived at the North Pole, but it felt like he hadn't left Los Angeles yet.

    The blonde woman happily introduced her, her name was Marianne, the little girl in the pink helmet was her daughter Frieda, and the little boy in the blue helmet was her son Thor, a Norwegian.  The red-haired woman is called Karen, and the little girl wearing a white helmet is her daughter Vera, who is Russian.

    The three children were all curious because they heard that this person was a "Hollywood superstar". There are many Asians on the island, and they are familiar with oriental faces.  But Frieda's childlike joke "You're so beautiful" made the adults laugh. Vera said "Yeah", and Thor was most interested in his tattoo and held his hand to see it.

    Ye Wei let the children pull him around, his laughter contained self-mockery. He didn¡¯t like Hollywood, but wherever he went, people would say he was a member of Hollywood.

    "I'm just a filmmaker." He said what he wanted to say, "It doesn't matter. Do you like watching movies?"

    "I like it!" The children all nodded, and Thor said first: "I like "Shrek"!" Frieda liked "Antarctic Adventure" and Vera liked "The Little Mermaid". Thor asked: "?What movies have you acted in?  "The two mothers smiled and looked at them without speaking.

    "I have acted in several movies, the most famous one is called "Wedding Day is Coming"." Ye Wei replied with a smile, suddenly feeling really good, even at the end of the world, movies are bringing people spiritual enjoyment.

    The children shook their heads and had not seen it.  He added: "I am mainly a director." The children asked one after another: "What is a director?"

    Ye Wei was about to answer but paused. Looking at their innocent little faces, he said sincerely: "The director puts his thoughts, imaginations, feelings, emotions, bright and dark sides, good and bad all these thoughts on the world and things  Cognition, pursuit and dreams, use movies to express, create, change and explore, and you can also make some money.¡±

    He said and smiled, wow, it turns out I am doing such a great thing!  I don¡¯t know if I have forgotten something, or if I suddenly understand it more deeply.

    Naturally, the three children could not understand, and the two mothers looked emotional. He continued: "Directors make movies. Making movies is an interesting thing. You can never say, 'I have done it all.' So it is also cool."  , of course not as cool as here.¡±

    The adults laughed, but the children didn¡¯t. The children seemed to think he was talking nonsense and wanted to go back and skateboard.

    "Ladies, I want to take some photos of the customs and customs of Longyearbyen. Can I ask you kids to take some photos?" Ye Wei sincerely asked an idea and went back to show it to Duoduo to let her know that there are still many things in the world.  There is such a place and such a group of children.

    "Of course!" Marianne and Karen were very happy and felt it was an honor.

    Ye Wei took out a SLR camera and other photographic equipment from his rucksack. While setting the parameters of the lens, he smiled and said, "Everyone, just play as usual."

    The three children were happily walking around the skate park, looking at the camera from time to time, causing Frieda to fall down on the slope.

    "Very good, very good." Ye Wei pressed the shutter of the camera, capturing each beautiful moment, and his heart gradually became filled with warmth and became more and more peaceful.

    Another thought emerged from the silence.

    He stopped taking pictures and asked with a smile: "Can you make origami origami flowers?" Neither adults nor children can.  He took out a stack of white paper from his backpack that he had already prepared, and gave everyone a piece of paper. "I only learned it recently. I'll teach you how to fold it."

    With his demonstration and step-by-step assistance, the three children all folded a beautiful origami lily, laughing and laughing with great interest.

    After Ye Wei took some more photos of children holding paper lilies, he switched to a digital camera and said mysteriously: "I'm making a travel video. Are you willing to appear?" Both adults and children were interested, but there were only three of them.  Children can be featured.

    He taught them their only line, made arrangements, turned on the camera, and shouted with a smile: "fire."

    Three children stood side by side next to the skate park, naturally holding paper lilies. Following the director's command, Thor on the left raised the paper flowers, Vera in the middle held it with both hands, and Frieda on the right waved it gently.  They all stood up with bright smiles and shouted in unison:

    ¡°The whole world is filled with lilies!¡±
