◇ 文 |本刊記者圖 |

早上7∶30 ，李開文準時起床，簡單洗漱，然后吃早餐。早餐是他自己做的酸奶和面包片。吃完早飯，出門走上十分鐘，就到了重慶大學。8∶30他已經(jīng)坐在了學校圖書館的座位上，開始了一天的學習。

李開文并不姓李，其實是重慶大學的一名土耳其留學生，土耳其名字叫aYkUt。因為發(fā)音困難，來重慶后，他便取了個英文名字kevin，中文為開文。后來，他的中文老師又給他取了一個“李”姓。

今年夏天，他就要畢業(yè)了。為了趕畢業(yè)論文，方便查找資料，他專門將觀音橋的出租房退掉，搬到學校附近。

32歲的李開文在學生中顯得有些年長。他實際上在重慶已經(jīng)八九年了，在這里工作、讀書，他說“重慶已經(jīng)成為了我的第一故鄉(xiāng)”。

Li Kaiwen got up at 7∶30 am on time, quickly washed his face, brushed teeth and then had breakfast. He prepared yogurt and bread for his breakfast. After having breakfast,he walked ten minutes to Chongqing University. At 8∶30 he was already in his seat in the university's library and started to study for all day long.

Li Kaiwen's surname is not Li. In fact, he is a Turkish student at Chongqing University with a Turkish name called aYkUt. Because of the difficult pronunciation, he chose the English name Kevin, which was Kaiwen in Chinese, for himself after coming to Chongqing. Later on,his Chinese teacher gave him the surname Li.

He is about to graduate this summer. In order to finish his thesis and search for information more easily, he moved out of the house he rented in Guanyinqiao and rented a house near the university.

32-year-old Li Kaiwen looks older among other students. In fact, he has stayed in Chongqing for eight or nine years, working and studying here. "Chongqing has become my first hometown" he said.

愛上重慶的“熱鬧”

Falling in Love with Chongqing’s Bustling City Life

李開文與重慶的緣分，要從2011年說起。那時李開文由于外貿(mào)工作的關(guān)系，來到了重慶。

“來到重慶，好像時間變長了?！彼?jīng)常一個人站在街頭，觀察重慶人的夜生活。他發(fā)現(xiàn)在觀音橋，即使到了半夜十二點，街上還有來來往往的的人群，廣場上還有人在跳舞……

但同時，李開文又覺得在重慶的時間也變快了?！霸谥貞c生活不會覺得無聊。在嘈雜的火鍋店里，街邊的燒烤攤上，總是熱熱鬧鬧的?！崩铋_文說。

重慶的熱鬧吸引著他，想要深入了解這座城市。他萌生了在重慶讀書、留在這座城市生活的想法。2015年夏天，李開文回到土耳其，向家里人宣布了一個決定：他準備辭去外貿(mào)工作，到中國重慶大學學習中文，以后就留在當?shù)匕l(fā)展。

對于李開文的這個決定，家里人并不意外。因為這些年，李開文的生活重心已經(jīng)放在了重慶。于是這一年的秋天，他辦理好重慶大學的入學手續(xù)，成為了一名重慶大學漢語國際教育學院的學生。

Li Kaiwen's particular connections with Chongqing can be traced back to nine years ago. In 2011, because of his work in foreign trade, Li Kaiwen came to Chongqing.

"It seems that the day gets longer after I came to Chongqing. "He often stood alone on the street,observing the nightlife of Chongqing people. He found that in the Guanyinqiao, even at midnight, there were still people walking in the street or dancing in the square...

But at the same time, Li Kaiwen felt that the day got shorter in Chongqing. "Life in Chongqing is not boring. You can always find people in noisy hot pot restaurants or at street barbecue stalls. Yet in Turkey,this is insane." Li Kaiwen said,"Nobody can be found on the street around 10 pm in my hometown. ”

As he was drawn to the hustle and bustle of Chongqing, he wanted to know more about this city. Then he came up with an idea of studying in Chongqing and stay in this city. In the summer of 2015, Li returned to Turkey and announced his decision to his family∶ he was going to quit his job in foreign trade and study Chinese at Chongqing University in China.

His family was not surprised at his decision as his work priority was already in Chongqing in recent years. So in the autumn of that year, he went through the admission formalities of Chongqing University and became a student of the school of Chinese International Education of Chongqing University.

重慶話的“俠氣”

The “Chivalry” of Chongqing Dialect

剛來重慶，李開文的生活并不是那么順利，需要適應(yīng)一種新的生活方式。其中一個就是飲食。

他還記得第一次吃火鍋時，辣得眼淚直掉，于是吃了四個月的麥當勞、肯德基。然而，一直吃快餐也不是辦法，于是他開始嘗試吃重慶菜。如今，他不僅學會了吃辣，而且還學會了做一手地道的重慶菜，最拿手的就是辣子雞和酸辣土豆絲。

不過，偶爾他也會開發(fā)“新菜譜”：兩根朝天椒再配上奶酪和面包，這種混搭常常成為他的餐桌常態(tài)。

來重慶九年后，李開文發(fā)現(xiàn)，他原來喜歡重慶的熱鬧，是因為這座城市的“俠氣”和重慶人的性格。有一次在北京聽到兩個人在說重慶話，感覺到非常親切。李開文開心得像老鄉(xiāng)一樣，直接上前和他們打招呼，說他也來自重慶。

現(xiàn)在，他也會說一些簡單的重慶話。比如“我曉得”“要得”。

李開文認識一個叫李黑帥的美國網(wǎng)紅，他想像那人一樣，用一口流利的重慶話劃拳?！霸卩须s的火鍋店點幾份鴨腸和毛血旺，火鍋的熱氣，伴著紅油熱辣地下肚，兩個喝得滿臉通紅的人，兄弟般勾著肩搖搖晃晃回家?！崩铋_文接著說，“在這里，人與人之間的相處特別真誠。我喜歡這種簡單直接的相處方式?！?/p>

When he first came to Chongqing, Li Kaiwen's life was not that smooth as he needed to adapt to a new lifestyle. One thing he needed to adapt to was the food.

He remembered the first time when he had the hot pot, it was so spicy that his tears kept rolling down his cheeks, so he had McDonald's and KFC food for four months. Yet as having snacks was not an ideal option,he started to try Chongqing dishes. Now, not only has he learned to eat spicy food, but also learned to cook authentic Chongqing dishes. He is now good at cooking the Spicy Chicken and Stir-fried Shredded Potato.

Occasionally, though, he came up with a "new recipe"∶ two Facing Heaven Peppers with cheese and bread, a mix that often becomes the norm at his table.

After spending nine years in Chongqing, Li Kaiwen came to realize that what drew him to this bustling city life was his love for its chivalry and characters of Chongqing people.

On one occasion, he heard two people talking in Chongqing dialect in Beijing, he felt very cordial. Li was so happy that he greeted them directly, saying that he was also from Chongqing.

Now, he can speak some simple Chongqing dialects. For example,"I know" and "OK".

Li Kaiwen knows an American called Li Heishuai,who can speak fluent Chongqing dialect while playing finger-guessing game. He wants to be like that person."In the noisy hot pot restaurant, ordering a few dishes of duck intestines and duck blood in chili sauce. After enjoying spicy hot food and beer, people with red face swagger towards home together with their arms around each other's shoulders. " Li Kaiwen continued,"People get along with each very well here. I like this straightforward way of making friends. ”

李開文強烈推薦他的家鄉(xiāng)美食

日新月異的城市

Fast-changing City

在重慶的時間越久，李開文越強烈感受到重慶的變化。三年前，南濱路彈子石附近還冷冷清清，如今，這里無論是購物，還是休閑，都很方便。同時，他也見證了千廝門大橋和東水門大橋從修建到通車的變化。

“如此龐大的工程，如此短時間，這在我的國家，是非常少見的?！崩铋_文笑著說。

九街是李開文經(jīng)常去的地方，他還記得幾年前剛到九街時，“凌晨的九街街頭，是馬路夜市的天下，近百號路邊攤簇擁在此，販賣美食夜宵。主城四面八方的‘夜貓子’到此覓食。”但同時，馬路夜市也有個別占道經(jīng)營、破壞城市環(huán)境衛(wèi)生的現(xiàn)象出現(xiàn)。

去年，九街開始打造花園夜市。一排排紅色和黃色的餐車出現(xiàn)在街道，點綴著重慶九街，豐富了重慶的夜生活。同時，中外美食都在這里匯聚。李開文看來，九街不再是“酒街”， 更是夜市文化一條街。

于是李開文也和朋友一起在九街開了一家土耳其餐館，聘請了一個土耳其廚師做土耳其燒烤。當然，這只是他的副業(yè)。今年畢業(yè)后，他想成為一名老師，“教外國人中文，告訴他們重慶的生活。”

在李開文看來，重慶越來越國際化，他記得最初來重慶的時候，只有他一個土耳其人，現(xiàn)在有15個土耳其人。接下來，他還想在重慶找一個女朋友，結(jié)婚，生子。

As he stayed longer in Chongqing, he noticed that changes are taking place quietly. Three years ago,the area around Danzishi in South Binhe Road was deserted. Today, it is convenient for both shopping and leisure. At the same time, he also witnessed the changes of Qianshimen bridge and Dongshuimen bridge from their construction to the opening.

"It is rare to see how a project with such huge scale can be finished in such a short period of time in my country. " Li Kaiwen said with a smile.

Jiujie Street is the place that Li Kaiwen often goes to and he still remembered the time when just arrived Jiujie Street a few years ago, "The street in the early morning is the world of night market, nearly 100 roadside stalls clustered around here, selling food and snacks. The 'late sleepers' from all parts of the main city came here to find food. But at the same time,some vendors in the street night market occupied other people's places to run their own business or polluting the urban environment.

Last year, the street began creating the garden night market. The Chongqing's Jiujie was spiced up with a dash of rows of red and yellow food trucks in the street. The nightlife of Chongqing has therefore become even more colorful. Meanwhile, you can find both Chinese and foreign cuisines here. For Likaiwen,Jiujie Street is no longer a street of wine, it is a street of night market culture.

So Li opened a Turkish restaurant on Jiujie Street with friends and hired a Turkish chef to cook the Turkish barbecue. Of course, this is his sideline.After graduating this year, he wants to be a teacher,"teaching foreigners Chinese and telling them about life in Chongqing. ”

Li Kaiwen thinks that Chongqing is becoming increasingly international. He remembered that when he first came to Chongqing, there was the only Turkish people, himself. Now there are 15. Next, he wants to find a girlfriend in Chongqing, get married and have children.
