invited the second generation of Chinese climbers on the program "First Lesson of School". Teacher Xia Boyu talked about the indissoluble relationship between an ordinary climbing ladder on the north slope of Mount Everest and two generations of Chinese climbers. This story is also the prototype of the movie "The Climber".
Before the Chinese mountaineering team reached the northern slope, there were rumors in the mountaineering community that no human could conquer Mount Everest from the northern slope. This is a mountain that even birds cannot cross. There is a 90 degree on the north slope of Mount Everest at 8,600 meters. The cliff is the only way to reach the summit of Mount Everest. In 1975, the second-generation mountaineering team successfully installed this climbing ladder on the cliff for the first time, but this short distance of 30 meters has gone through two generations. Climber.
The four first-generation Chinese climbers who first assaulted Mount Everest in 1960 used the human ladder tactics to climb this cliff. The player Liu Lianman was willing to use flesh and blood into the human ladder for the players to move forward. He could not climb the summit and he had to use his teammates. Sent to Mount Everest, the remaining three team members left the only remaining oxygen to him in the extreme cold, lack of oxygen, and no material. The three supported each other and successfully climbed from the north slope of Mount Everest.
This is the first time that mankind has conquered Mount Everest from the most difficult northern slope. In this era when material is extremely scarce, their hearts are full of enthusiasm. With super perseverance, they let the five-star red flag flutter in the wind on Mount Everest. Overhead.
The "Chinese Ladder" installed by the second generation of climbers on the cliff in 1975 laid the foundation for more than 1,300 Chinese and foreign climbers. In 2018, the Peking University climbing team once again climbed to the top of Mount Everest from the northern slope. They once again took over the spirit of solidarity and cooperation to climb Mount Everest from the older generation of climbers, which made many viewers cry.
After reading this story, I know why Wu Jing chose to shoot "The Climber", a mountaineering story that separated two generations. It not only filmed the story of the Chinese mountaineering team, but also told us the story of a Chinese man who is determined and united to rejuvenate China. , Chinese climbers used their own flesh and blood to forge an impossible myth.
