Daily Evolution from Mastering Tai Chi-Chapter 191: The Butterfly Effect and Star Effect Triggered by Breaking Records

After finishing 10 jumps.

Lü Jinyi naturally allowed Wang Ye to don the wingsuit and begin learning the posture for wingsuit flying.

The theoretical knowledge of wingsuit flying is far more complicated and tedious than high-altitude parachuting. Wang Ye spent about three days training on the ground with Lü Jinyi before barely mastering the theoretical knowledge of wingsuit flying.

Fortunately, during these three days of wind tunnel training, Wang Ye's Wind Manipulation Skill is about to break through to lv5.

In the course of improving his Skill Level, he can clearly feel that the skills in his mind have become quite proficient. Even in his eyes, Lü Jinyi's parachuting posture, as a top high-altitude parachuting coach, seemed a bit clumsy.

Honestly, this should be the fastest Skill Wang Ye has ever learned.

In the past half month, he hardly had a day of rest, either training parachute jumps on fixed-wing aircraft or undergoing expensive wind tunnel training at the base, or supplementing parachuting-related theoretical knowledge with Lü Jinyi.

Just as Wang Ye was wearing complete parachuting gear and a helmet with an altimeter.

Preparing to board the plane for parachuting practical training.

Anta Group's general manager, Li Weimin, came over.

He first carefully helped Wang Ye fasten the zipper and straps on his back, then opened his mouth and said:

"Wang Ye, regarding the Mount Everest guide you asked me about a few days ago, I have already checked it for you. I found you an experienced local Sherpa who has climbed Mount Everest many times and is a reputable expert guide. Additionally, I have arranged for my subordinates to handle all the permit insurance things for climbing Mount Everest. Along with the guide's commission, the total cost is five hundred thousand US Dollars, and Anta Group will pay fifty percent of the expense according to the contract. You only need to pay two hundred and fifty thousand US Dollars. Is that acceptable?"

Li Weimin was very respectful, his demeanor like that of a subordinate facing a leader.

Throughout, whether speaking or helping tie the ropes, his posture was almost bowing.

This shows how low his stance is now.

The dignified general manager of the group, at this moment, seems more like a steward before Wang Ye.

This is because since Anta signed with Wang Ye and helped him break the world record a second time.

The sales of Anta's products have started to soar crazily. Almost all online channels and offline stores are overcrowded, usually out of stock, which shows how amazing Wang Ye's celebrity effect is.

It's similar to when Li Ning soared to light the torch in the 2008 Olympics, and Li Ning's brand sales increased more than tenfold, the company's stocks surged against the trend, and his personal wealth increased by 30 million US Dollars on the same day.

Recently, Wang Ye broke the marathon world record for the second time, pulling the world record that was absolutely impossible for the Yellow race to break up by more than twenty minutes. The impact and shock it brings are definitely as significant as Li Ning lighting the torch back then. The key is how Anta will market the matter.

Because of this, Li Weimin, who initially mined and invited Wang Ye to endorse Anta, now has his status in Anta Group rising steeply.

This directly led to Li Weimin clearly being much more servile to Wang Ye recently.

He often came to the parachuting base to chat and care for Wang Ye.

Li Weimin can assume the general manager position in a subsidiary of an international sports brand like Anta, naturally because he's smart. He also knows the power, status, and money he obtained mostly come from Wang Ye, as long as Wang Ye continues to create records, the money and power he earns will continually rise. So making Wang Ye happy is only beneficial to him.

Thus, over time, Li Weimin's demeanor and posture have visibly lowered quite a bit. Wang Ye wasn't particularly surprised by this, since he is now a top athlete breaking world records. To the country, he is like a treasure, so it's not unusual for others to be respectful to him.

"Hmm... five hundred thousand US Dollars, which is 3.5 million RMB, and this doesn't even include clothing and other small expenses. Climbing the entire Mount Everest with expenses for fixed-point parachuting surely exceeds 5 million RMB..."

Wang Ye's eyes flashed, knowing that climbing Mount Everest is very expensive but didn't expect it to be this costly. It almost consumes half of his personal assets now. Fortunately, Anta will pay fifty percent of the expense, otherwise, his assets would likely only afford him a few months of splurging.

Despite this, the budget cannot be lowered.

Especially when hiring a guide to climb the world's highest peak, Mount Everest, one must not hire a cheap guide. These climbing guides are primarily Sherpas, but they're divided into certified and non-certified, experienced and inexperienced ones.

The higher the expense, the more oxygen tanks guides carry, tents will be more comfortable, and they may even bring local warm food to enjoy during the camp, they're treated like presidents. The climbing process will receive meticulous care from guides.

But most importantly, expensive guides have much lower danger levels compared to cheaper ones.

This has even formed an extremely professional industrial chain locally in Nepal, charging high fees from climbing enthusiasts, responsible for arranging guides, flights, permits, tents, oxygen tanks, equipment, etc.

They can charge such high rates because climbing Mount Everest is extremely difficult, requiring long-distance climbing in low oxygen environments, posing a significant challenge to one's physical and mental state, and encountering multiple natural disaster risks midway, like blizzards, avalanches, and storms, which are enough to obliterate entire teams. Therefore, climbing Everest and reaching the summit is no ease for Sherpas themselves, with most preparing months or even years ahead, engaging in professional physical training and climbing-specific training, before daring to climb Everest.

Hence, in climbing Mount Everest, the more money spent, the higher the safety.

Although Wang Ye is confident in his strength and speed.

He isn't confident in maintaining his life facing large-scale disasters like avalanches.

After brief pondering, Wang Ye continued to say: "No problem, you just arrange everything. According to the course schedule, I should be ready to prepare for Everest by early August."

"Early August? So soon?" Li Weimin showed surprise and said: "Have you passed the parachuting test yet?"
