这哥们儿又有动静了,刚刚有人转了个文档给我。谁知道里面提到的“去年有2汉族/4藏族中国登山者参加”的活动具体是怎么回事儿?
China Summiteers project by Thomas Bubendorfer 2012
Thomas Bubendorfer
Thomas Bubendorfer is one of the most successful European climbers who has excelled in adapting a very reduced climbing style to mountain climbing. Among his major achievements are the first free solo climbs of the 3.000 meter south face of Aconcagua, 6.956 m, in the Andes, Argentina, and the first free solo climb of the Eiger north face in the Alps, when he was only 21 years young. He holds about 90 first free solo climbing records and first ascents.
To this day he climbs about 120 days years and trains at least 15 hours per week on average to enhance his strength and endurance. In the last years he has become a specialist on frozen waterfalls and winter climbs – in teams. His most recent success was a technical unclimbed mountain, Bi-Tsi, 6.228 m, in Tibet in September of 2011.
Thomas has written seven books. His first in Chinese, On Life and Mountain Climbing, was published in Beijing in July 2011. He is giving speeches on his achievement, risk-management, quality and goal-setting philosophy to major corporations around the world and he is consulting select business executives on the same issues and on the balance of body and mind.
Why
One of his clients is German chemical giant Lanxess AG, which operates six plants in China (12% of turnover Euros 5 billion). Lanxess sponsors the Young European Classics orchestra consisting of top Chinese and European musicians. The goal is to further the understanding between different cultures and to promote Lanxess’ philosophy of highest technical standards which Lanxess is famous for in their industry.
To extend their sponsorship activities about the topics of culture exchange and top achievement Lanxess has become Thomas Bubendorfer’s partner in his “Summiteers in China” project:
The program
A team of six Chinese climbers will be invited to spend two weeks in February to climb hard routes in the Montblanc region, France, in February.
In the spring of 2012, the same team we will try to climb the unclimbed Quowoyi, 7.230 m, in Tibet.
All costs of travel (flights to Europe, to Lhasa, transportation, gear, permits, food, accommodation) will be paid by Lanxess.
A two-man filming team (climbing specialists) will be present each time we climb and a 42-minute documentary will be produced and distributed around the world, with special focus on China TV.
Additional members of the expedition will be two of Thomas’ best climbing partners and friends, both leading mountain guides and safety experts and extreme climbers. One of the two cameramen is also a mountain guide and one of the Alps most highly experienced mountain safety experts.
This year’s program (2012) is preceded by a similar program which has taken place in 2011 when six climbers from China have been to Austria to climb frozen waterfalls and when the same team successfully climbed two new mountains in Tibet in September.
This team consisted of two Han Chinese and four Tibetan Chinese climbers. In 2012 the four Tibetan climbers will be replaced by Han Chinese climbers.
In the fall of 2012 a book about the joint climbs of both years will be published and a lecture tour in China, and probably Korea, Japan and Singapor, will follow.
The reason why Lanxess supports this project which they will invest in about € 2 million is to use the aspects of technology transfer and the understanding and (non-political!) cooperation between two peoples in their public relations. |
