Li Zhiwei started at 10:15 this morning and officially climbed. The goal was to climb the 320-meter-high Tsuen Wan such as a square.

[10:15 AM] Li ​​Zhiwei descended along the rope to a position about 9 meters above the ground, preparing for the challenge of climbing.

After the trumpet on the ground, Li Zhiwei began to climb the 320-meter-high Ruxin Square with his hands and in a wheelchair.

[10:10 in the morning] Li Zhiwei seems to have arrived at the starting position. He raised his phone and waved his hand to take a selfie with the crowd on the ground.

[9:35 in the morning] Li Zhiwei got out to the support of the fire barrier, and then slowly descended along the rope.

[9:15 in the morning] Li Zhiwei left the ground and took the lift on the 31st floor of Nina Plaza to prepare for the challenge.

Li Zhiwei also hopes to take advantage of the challenge of "Climbing 300+ City Buildings" to raise funds for the Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology of the University of Hong Kong to purchase rehabilitation equipment such as "mechanical feet" to help patients with spinal cord injury and patients with mobility impairments.

Lai Zhiwei was once an elite athlete in Hong Kong. He won the Asian Rock Climbing Championship 4 times, and also won the Cheung Chau Bun Mountain Championship and was nicknamed "Bao Mountain King".

However, Li Zhiwei was in a car accident in 2011 and his lower body was paralyzed.

He climbed to the Lion Rock in a wheelchair in 2016, and his story was later adapted into the movie "On the Lion Rock".
