222. The climb begins! "Plum God" arrived at the scene, I was born to shine! (Ask for a commuter pass)

Flory moved quickly, only finished the call the day before, and the next day Red Bull officially announced the news.

Mr. Chen Fei, the general spokesperson of Red Bull Asia, an extreme athlete, a famous director, actor and screenwriter, recently announced that he will start from the north face of Mount Everest to challenge the unseasonal anaerobic summit of Mount Everest, and challenge the extreme skydive at the summit. 】

As soon as the news was released, it instantly set off an uproar on the Internet!

There are actually many routes to the summit of Mount Everest, but geographically it can be roughly divided into the south and north slopes.

The southern slope is located in Nepal, while the northern slope is located in the territory of China.

On the whole, the summit route on the north slope is much more complicated and dangerous than the south slope.

Due to the control of the plateau climate, the weather in the north can be described as extreme and changeable, and many extreme weather factors such as storms, heavy rains, and heavy snowfall may occur in just three minutes.

On the south side, because of the monsoon control, the weather is very stable at first.

Therefore, in the world, all the challengers start from the south slope, and the north slope has so far rarely been challenged.

Not to mention what is out of season, anaerobic, extreme skydiving.

This is pure play!

Just as Chen Fei began to make preliminary preparations and discussed with Flory how to prepare the equipment, the incident began to ferment rapidly!

The first is the extranet.

Because Chen Fei has a good reputation abroad, coupled with the successful completion of the wingsuit flight challenge before, it has attracted great attention for him.

So when Red Bull officially released this news, many followers and extreme sports enthusiasts received the news immediately.

All of a sudden, major portals, media, sports newspapers, etc. began to hype!

Immediately after, many social platforms that have cooperated with Red Bull began to push to users, which instantly sparked huge discussions and attention.

“Oh my god? Climbing Mount Everest out of season? Also skydiving at 8,000 meters? Is this God's second coming? ”

"Mount Everest? The roof of the world? 8848.48? Are you kidding? ”

“Oh fuck! How many lives does this director have? ”

"It's exciting to think about, there's a broadcast, right? I'll be following him all the way. ”

"This is probably the most awesome extreme challenger Red Bull has hired in recent years, right? This 100 million dollars is really worth it! ”

“……”

The popularity continued to rise, and Red Bull began to spread globally.

Chen Fei was discussing the situation of the equipment with Flory.

Because it is an anaerobic challenge, it is necessary to take into account the weight problem, even if he is very physical, but for safety, it is necessary to reduce the weight as much as possible.

"In terms of backpacks, I specially customized them for you to strive for the maximum capacity and lightest weight."

Chen Fei nodded in response, and at the same time said: "Insulated clothes should be close to the body, hiking boots, ice drafts, windproof goggles, helmets, climbing ropes, tents, sleeping bags...... These should be of the best quality and most suitable. ”

"Don't worry, Red Bull's equipment is top-notch." Florey swore his promises.

Chen Fei believes this, as the world's top extreme sports sponsor, Red Bull has never been stingy in terms of equipment.

Because every time you complete a challenge, Red Bull will get several times more than you paid!

"When will it be ready?"

"Tomorrow there will be a staff member who will come in advance to install the broadcast equipment, and I and the equipment will arrive in three days."

"Okay, as soon as possible."

The two were chatting here, and the news from abroad soon appeared on the sports channel and the three major portals.

"Sina.com report: The famous director Chen Fei officially announced through Red Bull that he will set off from the north slope of Mount Everest in a few days to challenge the out-of-season summit!"

Sohu reported: Red Bull! Challenge the impossible! Chen Fei, the spokesperson of 100 million US dollars, once again launched the challenge plan, climbed to the top of Mount Everest on the north slope of the anti-seasonal season, and opened the umbrella in the wind and snow zone! ”

"Netease Sports and Entertainment Channel joint report: Recently, Chen Fei, the well-known director, actor and screenwriter who is filming "2012" in Hollywood's Class A production, officially announced that he will bravely enter Mount Everest without oxygen!"

"CCTV Sports Channel Report: Challenge the limits of human beings! Brave the forbidden zone of life! Out of season, the north slope climbs Mount Everest without oxygen! 8848.48 Wind and snow with extreme parachute! The sports channel will broadcast the whole thing! ”

The three major portals took the lead in speaking out, followed by major print media, newspapers, blogs, forums, etc.

For a while, the entire internal entertainment exploded!

"? Chen Fei wants to climb Mount Everest? Really? ”

"Didn't you see the announcement on the official website? How can this be fake? ”

"Impossible! Can this be done? That horse is Mount Everest! It's not my hill bag! ”

"Everyone, pay attention, they mark that they are out of season anaerobic, and then they have to complete the skydive on it."

"Made! Looking for death, right? I'm still waiting to see what he will do! Don't do that, right? ”

One phone call after another, Chen Fei would choose to listen at first, but in the end he simply turned off the phone.

Most people tried to persuade him, but it didn't work for him.

It's just that what surprised him a little was that according to the news sent by Liu Yifei, the sports network reacted very quickly and won the broadcast permission!

It's just that this broadcast may not go too smoothly!

In the wind and snow zone, the signal interference is extremely strong, who dares to follow the whole process of broadcasting?

Even a helicopter would not dare to fly up to Mount Everest in such extreme weather!

The staff in charge of installing the equipment was at an impasse for a while, and finally Chen Fei put forward his opinion, "Why don't you find a way to install that camera for me, so that I can broadcast it from the first perspective?" ”

"That's a good idea!"

The staff's eyes lit up, but then they said with some concern, "But this will cause the weight to increase exponentially."

And to keep the signal stable, you'll have to install source adapters along the way, which means you'll have to bring a separate backpack.

Anaerobic is already a huge test of physical strength, and if you still carry so many things on your back, it will inevitably increase the difficulty of reaching the top exponentially. ”

Hearing this, Chen Fei was silent for a moment, his consciousness sank into the system interface, and he glanced at his current reputation value.

429951。

"It's okay, I can do it."

"Are you sure?"

"I'm pretty sure!"

After getting Chen Fei's affirmative answer, the next process was much simpler.

Simple head-mounted broadcast equipment, 200 signal sticks, walkie-talkies...... Everything was very well prepared!

Three days later, Flory arrived with the equipment.

He was accompanied by two others.

One of them is Sam Hardy, who came to see him complete the wingsuit flight challenge last time, while the other is the world's most famous extreme mountaineer!

"Reinhold Messner, the creator of the first aspiration of Mount Everest without oxygen. ”

"Hello, Mr. Messner, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Chen Fei solemnly stretched out his hands towards the other party.

This person in front of him is not an ordinary person, he is known as the "plum god" in the industry, and in 1978, he completed the oxygen-free ascent on the northeast ridge to the north wall of the Norton rock gully.

This is the first anaerobic ascent in human history!

It's just that there was no one to witness at the time, so there were many people who questioned his "anaerobic".

The old man is 62 years old this year.

Hailed as the greatest mountaineer of all time, he was the first person to summit all 14 8,000-meter mountains in the world, and the first to climb the highest peaks on all seven continents.

Chen Fei never expected that Florey would invite such a great god!

"Fei, I admire your courage, I watched the previous wingsuit flight challenge with a surprised expression, I believe you will be able to complete this summit of Mount Everest."

"Thank you for your encouragement."

Florey added: "Messner will be in charge of explaining your ascent to the summit and, based on his experience, will be able to help you through the walkie-talkie. ”

"Okay, thanks."

After communicating with a few people, Chen Fei began to check the equipment brought by Flory and made various preparations before climbing.

What he didn't expect was that in the afternoon, a group of people from the National Sports Bureau also came!

The leader was Wang Yongfeng, vice chairman of the Chinese Mountaineering Association and captain of the national mountaineering team, and in the team he led, Chen Fei also met an acquaintance.

Li Hongwei, a reporter for the sports channel.

The two are also old acquaintances, and they have met several times, and the last Iron Triathlon World Championship was the one in charge of the interview.

At the same time, there are two "cows" in the team!

Jiang Xiuzhen once climbed Mount Everest on the aerobic north slope in 1995.

Wang Shi, 03 years aerobic north slope to the summit of Mount Everest.

The purpose of this group of people coming over is very simple, that is, to witness Chen Fei's challenge.

If it was just a simple ascent to the top, the sensation would definitely not be so big, but he is now climbing the north slope of the anaerobic slope out of season, and he is also going to do extreme skydiving in the wind and snow zone at the summit!

That's a little too scary!

People all over the world are watching this challenge, how can the National Sports Agency let it go?

If it can be successful this time, it will be a world-class glory, and the entire mountaineering community will burst into a huge sensation for it!

"Hello, Captain Wang." Chen Fei greeted the other party politely.

Wang Yongfeng was a little excited, "Actually, I wanted to meet you a long time ago, but unfortunately I didn't have time, and I finally met today."

This will be a great challenge, and if it can be successful, it will be a historic victory for China and the whole world!

If you need help, please be sure to tell me in time, and the Huaxia Mountaineering Team will help you unconditionally in this challenge! ”

Mount Everest is already in China, and it is also the highest peak in the world, and it is no exaggeration to say that Chen Fei's move is even related to national honor!

"Okay, I will."

Chen Fei smiled and nodded.

After the sports bureau and the official Red Bull people left the room, the crew of "2012" walked in again.

Roland Emmericht and Walker Engel came in in a state of bewilderment.

"Fei, we just need a shot, there's no need to risk our lives for this."

Chen Fei smiled and shook his head, "Don't worry, challenging Mount Everest is my goal, but the camera is just a casual shot." ”

As soon as these words came out, the two of them were speechless.

"Red Bull Asia General Endorsement".

These seven words seem to give Chen Fei a suitable reason for all his behavior.

"Brother Fei, I read the Internet and said, this seems to be difficult, you must pay attention to safety."

"Yawen is right, you must be careful, if you can't go up, remember to come back quickly, and you must protect your life."

Zhu Yawen and Luo Jin chattered.

Even Yang Mi, Liu Shishi, Jing Tian, and Zhao Liying all opened their mouths to persuade him, and their words were full of concern for him.

"Don't worry, I'm ready for everything, just wait and watch the live broadcast."

After sending the group away, Chen Fei checked the equipment again.

Placing everything in place, he picked up the binoculars on the table and looked at Mount Everest in the distance.

Today happens to be a sunny day.

As dusk approached, the afterglow of the setting sun fell on the unattainable peak, as if to bring it a crown of honor.

"Whew..."

With a sigh of relief, Chen Fei carried the backpack containing all the items behind him and walked out of the room.

Flory, Sam Hardy, Messner and a few others were already waiting outside the door.

Even Wang Yongfeng, Li Hongwei, Jiang Xiuzhen, Wang Shi and others were all fully armed, as if they were ready to go to the "battlefield".

Flory took the initiative to speak: "Fei, let's send you to the base camp first." ”

"OK, thanks."

Chen Fei nodded and threw the car keys to him.

Wang Yongfeng also shouted, "We will also follow, and there will be a response on the road." ”

"Okay, then I'll trouble you."

The convoy began to depart.

The 4990-meter Gombala Snow Mountain has become the first difficulty, Chen Fei is still a little worried that he will not be able to pass, but he never thought that the power of this Toyota car is quite strong.

Along the Yangzhuo Yongco all the way to the west, through the Karora Glacier at an altitude of more than 5,000 meters, Rike comes into view.

The convoy continued to move forward until it was dark, and the group arrived at the Everest base camp.

Far from the prosperity of later generations, there is nothing to be seen except for a clearing buried in snow.

"Whew!"

The wind outside the car was loud, and the sky was filled with dense snowflakes, and there was no direction to be seen at all, only extreme depth and the loneliness as if abandoned.

The driver was a staff member who came to debug the broadcast equipment, and at this time he seemed to be a little frightened, and subconsciously twisted the warm air gear up a few gears.

But Messner was a little excited, "It's so beautiful! It's been a long time since I've been to Everest. ”

"Beautiful? It's dark, can you see it? Flory muttered quietly.

Sam Hardy laughed and said, "Maybe this is the Chinese idiom "touching the scene." ”

Pouting, Flory turned his head to look at the back seat, "Fei, when are you going to climb the mountain?" We'll go back with you until dawn. ”

"Okay, I'm ready to start climbing to the top tomorrow."

As the minutes passed, all the cars were fully fueled, and they were also equipped with energy storage, so they didn't turn off the engine.

Several people in the car were silent and did not say a word, giving Chen Fei ample time to rest.

The set alarm clock goes off at five o'clock sharp.

Chen Fei opened his eyes violently, exhaled a breath of depression that was stuffed in his heart, and began to do the final equipment check.

The alarm clock also wakes up the other people in the car.

The blizzard outside the window had stopped, and there was a white expanse everywhere, and the feeling of being disoriented made my heart tremble unconsciously.

Opening the door and getting out of the car, shackling his backpack tightly behind him, Chen Fei took a deep breath.

The cold air poured into the lungs and began to stir back and forth in the chest, completely washing away the mental fatigue.

The thin oxygen made him a little uncomfortable, but it was only a little bit and it didn't affect the climb.

Several people in the car got out of the car one after another after taking precautions against the cold.

The staff began to debug the equipment, connect the satellite signal, and start the broadcast.

Although it is still early, the sky has already revealed the white of the fish belly, shining brightly on the entire Mount Everest!

Li Hongwei held the camera and couldn't help but shoot wildly around.

At this time, the staff member finally completed the adjustment of the equipment and turned on the broadcast permission.

Domestic sports channels, foreign platforms such as Google and YouTube received broadcast signals almost at the same time.

The time in China is more than five o'clock in the morning, when many people are still asleep, except for some people who have set alarm clocks in advance and wait to watch the broadcast, most of them are still asleep.

But abroad is different.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, it was the end of work, and many people were waiting in front of the computer or TV, waiting for the broadcast to begin.

The picture flashed, and Chen Fei's face appeared on the screen.

Cheers rang out from all over the globe!

"Mom, come on, the broadcast is on."

In the Sony Records Department, Liu Yifei rushed into Liu Xiaoli's room and pushed her up.

"It's only five o'clock, huh?"

Liu Xiaoli muttered, hid her delicate figure under her pajamas, and followed Liu Yifei to the living room.

I saw that Chen Fei was making the final adjustments at this time.

The camera does not freeze on him all the time, but rotates back and forth in all directions, including the entire Mount Everest in the picture.

The mountains are undulating, and the heights seem to be connected to the sky, which is daunting!

"He's really bold." Liu Xiaoli looked emotional.

Liu Yifei nodded in agreement, "He is really brave, he dares to climb up at such a high altitude?" It's just too strong. ”

Seeing that her daughter's eyes seemed to be about to burst into stars, Liu Xiaoli shook her head helplessly.

With this humble appearance, maybe one day it will be eaten and wiped clean.

The same images appear in various places.

On the side of the crew of "2012", under the leadership of Zhu Yawen, a group of domestic actors gathered in his room.

Everyone found a place to sit down, and everyone didn't see the slightest bit of sleepiness on their faces, and they all looked energetic.

"When will you start climbing to the top?" Liu Shishi asked with some curiosity.

"I don't know." Jing Tian shook his head, looking at Chen Fei with a tough face in the camera, and a different kind of emotion unconsciously appeared in his eyes.

This is the real man!

Talented! Capable! Radiant!

Everyone was chatting and chatting, and they saw that the camera that was swinging around suddenly fixed on Chen Fei's face.

A very magnetic voice sounded in the television:

"Good morning everyone, this is the base camp of Mount Everest, 5159 meters above sea level, the direction I am about to climb to the top is the north slope, now all my equipment has been checked, and the summit is about to begin.

Due to environmental and geographical factors, the videographer could not follow me up the mountain, so I will take the broadcast equipment myself and bring you a novel experience from the first perspective!

So good, now let's go! ”

As soon as the words fell, as the picture shook for a while, the device was installed on the helmet and successfully put on the top of Chen Fei's head.

"Have a safe journey."

"Make sure you come back safely!"

“……”

There were some concerned voices at the scene, and the picture shook, encapsulating everyone's faces in the camera.

"Oh my god, Mei Shen is also there!"

“WTF? Why did this old man run over there? Did he want to witness the climb? ”

"Haha! I saw the Kings! ”

"Oh, I'm a good girl, Jiang Xiuzhen and Wang Shi are actually on the scene!"

"Good guys, they are all extreme athletes, and sure enough, people gather like and things gather in groups."

People abroad are amazed by the appearance of Messner, and some domestic mountaineering enthusiasts are surprised by the appearance of Wang Yongfeng and others.

So many bigwigs appeared in the Everest base camp, which shows the importance of Chen Fei's challenge!

"See you tomorrow."

Waving his hand at everyone, Chen Fei resolutely turned around and walked away towards the thick snow.

As he walked, he also commented, "In the next few years, I will continue to follow this route to the north."

After about seven kilometers, I will arrive at an ice tower, which is the first destination of my trip.

Crossing the Ice Tower will lead you to Rongbu Glacier, the second stage of the climb.

This section of the journey is about 10 kilometers, because it is not the window to reach the summit, so the original gravel valley road has already been buried by snow, this section of the road will be very long, please be patient......"

"Crunch! Crunch! ”

Hiking boots made a slightly harsh grinding sound as they stepped on the thick snow.

Everest in the summer is like a big aunt's girlfriend, if you ask her to drink more hot water, she will be angry, but if you don't pour her a cup of hot water, she will still be angry.

Before he had walked 100 meters, the originally clear sky was overcast.

The wind began to howl, and snowflakes fell on the screen, making the picture begin to blur.

If it weren't for Chen Fei's constant wiping, I'm afraid the picture at this time would have been interrupted.

The nerve-wracking half hour flew by.

Suddenly, the storm stopped, and the torrential rain between heaven and earth also came to an end at the same time.

Reaching out to wipe the lens again, Chen Fei took out a signal stick from behind him and inserted it into a relatively thick snow area.

The signal stick can transmit satellite signals, so that the broadcast screen will not stutter, although it is a bit expensive, but for Red Bull it is completely sprinkled.

After the wind and rain calmed down, Chen Fei's voice also sounded.

"If it were during the window, the blizzard scene just now would be very rare, but the summer season would cause the blizzard to occur non-stop.

I only had the necessary ice climbing equipment, first aid supplies, and some compressed biscuits in my backpack, so I didn't have any auxiliary equipment.

I didn't have a spare oxygen cylinder with me, and I wouldn't have any rescue team behind me.

The only one who can help me is myself, and once I encounter a crisis, I can only rely on myself to save me.

Therefore! If the broadcast signal is lost! Or maybe it's an avalanche! Then I will be completely resting here with an indomitable momentum!

Please don't come looking for me, and please don't cry, I was born to shine! ”

Call! Call! Call!

The wind is blowing suddenly, and a new round of blizzards is coming again.

Chen Fei's voice disappeared, the camera began to become blurry, and the white world couldn't help but feel frightened!

Everyone in front of the screen subconsciously held their breath, staring at the screen without blinking.

Only every time Chen Fei reached out to wipe it, they could have time to breathe a sigh of relief.

Because it means he's alive!
