显微镜下的雾霾颗粒 It has been two years since China Daily last interviewed 31-year-old Zhang Chao. The Beijing-based micrograph enthusiast still wears the same hair style, even the same coat. 如今，这个北京显微摄影的狂热爱好者依然留着同样的发型，甚至穿着同样的衣服。 A picture of smog particles under the microscope taken by Zhang Chao But one thing is very different: He's become a celebrity in cyberspace almost overnight, after his pictures, which depict what the rampant（蔓延的） smog in Beijing looks like under his microscope, spread like a virus on China's major micro-blogging site Sina Weibo, since he posted them last Friday. Now the media is hounding him for interviews. "Why do I become famous when I took pictures of the smog?" he asks with a wry smile. "I have taken numerous pictures of beautiful nature whenever I have spare time, but there are no more than 10 interview requests for me every year before. Now, I have to answer dozens of phone calls from media every day. "But I only gained 2,000 more followers over the weekend. I guess the micro blog is not as popular as before," he says, jokingly. On Monday morning, a camera crew from a TV station based in southern Hunan province even took a flight to Beijing just to record how Zhang takes pictures of the Beijing's most-talked about feature: the floating enemies in the air. |
