Daily Evolution from Mastering Tai Chi-Chapter 169: Personal Promo Video

However, Anta has left a very good impression on Wang Ye these days.

Besides the high endorsement fees and excellent benefits,

the attitude of General Manager Li Weimin also made him feel like a spring breeze.

After much deliberation, Wang Ye decided to talk to Li Weimin again the next day.

Once he made the decision, he focused on honing his body with sandpaper and a carving knife.

Occasionally, he would even use a grinder to cut his fascia and bones to improve his training efficiency.

A grinder is also known as a grinder mill, a portable electric tool used for cutting and grinding fiberglass, primarily used for cutting, grinding, and brushing metal and stone.

The use of a grinder is similar to that of sandpaper and carving knives, but the grinder is a reinforced electric version, capable of effortlessly cutting through steel, and during cutting, it emits numerous shocking sparks, showing how terrifying the cutting strength is.

Even Wang Ye dared to cut his fascia and bones for only two seconds.

If the time was any longer, he would feel intense pain and tearing sensations.

After tormenting his body to be riddled with scars,

Wang Ye returned to the bathroom, entering the scarlet medicinal bath in the bathtub.

The temperature of the medicinal bath was deliberately heated by Wang Ye to around 70 degrees Celsius.

Such a high water temperature could already bring a noticeable stinging sensation to Wang Ye’s damaged skin and flesh.

He soaked in the 70-degree medicinal bath for about three minutes, then immediately plunged into cold water at around 5 degrees.

This alternating hot and cold sensation made him feel goosebumps all over, and the flow of blood in his body accelerated significantly.

Wang Ye immediately looked down at his injuries. With his microscopic focus vision, he could clearly see his recovery speed was nearly 1.5 times faster, the gory, fragmented flesh cut by the grinder rapidly turned black with metabolism and fell off with a "plop", and a layer of new white skin immediately grew on the original injury site.

Wang Ye looked back at the panel in front of him.

He found out that this kind of medicine bath brought double the skill level compared to usual.

"Sure enough, it works! At this pace, I should break through to lv5 by next week!"

After his injuries healed, Wang Ye went downstairs for dinner to supplement the nutritious energy needed for recovery, then went back upstairs to diligently practice the Golden Bell Shield.

The next day

June 3rd.

After Wang Ye woke up, he went straight to the Anta Group subsidiary.

He found General Manager Li Weimin and discussed the details in the conference room for two hours, reducing the duration of the endorsement contract from ten years to five years.

Finally, the endorsement contract was signed.

After the four copies of the contract were signed and sealed, Li Weimin immediately instructed his employees to bring in the filming team to start making a personal promotional short film for Wang Ye.

The content of the short film was inspirational, fitting well with the grassroots rise image Wang Ye currently presented. The storyline of the short film generally depicted Wang Ye persistently practicing martial arts, cycling, running, and other various activities in Anta’s sports hall.

The story of Wang Ye’s rapid rise from an unknown to an internationally acclaimed athlete breaking world records was no longer a secret, so the short film also included lines resonating with such themes.

Lines like "Let the world’s injustice bow before me," "Adversity will not defeat me, it will only make me," "If you don’t strive, heaven will gradually take back your talent," reflect this kind of motivational self-help philosophy.

Although it was just a short film less than 30 seconds long,

the filming team and director, in pursuit of excellence, needed certain scenes to be shot repeatedly countless times for better viewing quality, such as the quality of running and cycling movements, and the aesthetic appeal of Tai Chi martial arts actions, etc.

Most people might not know, but Tai Chi is also an official Olympic event. Therefore, masters in the field of Tai Chi can also be referred to as athletes, acquiring athlete certificates or joining the national team.

Thus, incorporating Tai Chi martial arts movements in these kinds of sports promotional short films is not over the top.

Wang Ye found the shooting process terribly troublesome, yet fortunately, the repeated filming process could also enhance certain skills on his panel, which gave him a bit of comfort, so he had to endure his impatience and continue filming.

··························

··························

By the time Wang Ye finished the filming affairs, it was already five days later.

Which was June 8th.

The Lanzhou Marathon, starting on June 15th,

was merely a week away.

To save travel time, Wang Ye directly declined Li Weimin’s following collaboration proposals,

intending to set off for Lanzhou immediately.

With his wealth reaching tens of millions, rather than leaving Wei Sea first, he bought a batch of expensive hiking equipment at a physical store to replace his worn-out shoes after walking two thousand kilometers.

Not to mention how the hiking shoes he prepared before leaving Shenzhen truly had excellent quality.

They really endured two thousand kilometers of harsh hiking.

But ever since reaching Wei Sea, those hiking shoes were declared officially retired.

The last shoes’ upper, enduring prolonged exercise, had three big holes the size of toes, and the sole worn thin like a piece of paper by the ground, with mud and stains deeply ingrained, became a semi-permanent imprint, impossible to clean off, truly resembling damaged shoes from war-torn Syria.

If he continued traveling at such intensity, those shoes would be thoroughly scrapped before fifty kilometers.

So Wang Ye planned to spend another 2000 yuan for a pair of high-quality hiking shoes.

To improve his hiking experience in every possible way and reduce the frequency of shoe replacements.

Although he could run barefoot now, he was still, after all, a human being living in society, better not to walk barefoot unless necessary.

Wang Ye spent the morning of June 8th packing food and tools into his backpack.

Meanwhile, he discarded his casual clothes into a used clothes recycling bin.

Leaving only a set of cycling clothes and a jacket.

Once everything was packed up,

Wang Ye opened Gaode Maps and roughly planned his route for this journey.

If his previous journey was a walk from the southern part of China to the northern part,

then this journey was from the eastern part of China to the western part.

Both were walking from one end to the other, naturally having similar levels of difficulty.
