[Explanation] The scenery of the northern country, the beauty of Jilin; the poetry and painting of the south of the Yangtze River, the mountains and rivers of Zhejiang... A young group from Chongqing used a variety of Chinese characters to show the beauty of China's region.

  Recently, in an office building in Chongqing, the reporter saw Niu Nan who was polishing the three-dimensional place names that had just been printed.

  Niu Nan, 38, told reporters that he is engaged in 3D printing design work.

In his work, he tried to 3D print city place names.

  This Chinese character is used frequently by each of us.

I just want to use this method to make the Chinese characters more dynamic and help the global spread of Chinese characters.

  [Explanation] The reporter saw that these city place names are roughly divided into 5 types: including two characters displayed from different sides; three characters displayed from three sides; combined and split with extended meaning; mortise and tenon structure displayed ; There is also a time element added, which can represent a type of 4 words.

  [Explanation] After the introduction of three-dimensional place names, it was also loved by netizens.

The number of views of these works on short video platforms has exceeded 10 million.

  [Explanation] Niu Nan said that the production of 3D Chinese characters requires steps such as grinding, removing redundant supports, and painting.

Among them, the design is the most important. For example, in Chongqing, "Qianli" and "Guangguang" are used to combine and split and display with tenon-and-mortise structure.

"Thousands of miles are the most important, and the vastness is celebrated." The word "Chongqing" is divided into "thousands of miles" and "grand", which not only reflects the place name, but also includes the meaning of "travel a thousand miles to the vastness".

  The production of this 3D Chinese character is not complicated, the most difficult thing is its creativity.

Because a source of creativity needs an inspiration, and sometimes it takes over and over again to make a satisfactory work.

  [Explanation] Niu Nan has set new goals for himself. At present, he has completed the design of place names for 300 prefecture-level administrative districts across the country, and then prepares to complete the place name series for 2,800 county-level administrative districts across the country.
