Of course, there's another way.

But at the end of the day, these are just temporary solutions.
To achieve long-term and stable growth in followers and views, the most reliable method is to enhance the aesthetics of your throwing techniques while improving filming and editing skills, making the videos increasingly interesting and enjoyable to watch.
There's no shortcut besides that.
As the saying goes, a person can never earn beyond their knowledge and ability.
Even if they manage to earn it, they'll quickly squander these assets due to their foolishness and incompetence.
...
Time passed swiftly.
Around one in the afternoon.
Father drove mother to Wang Ye's place downstairs.
Wang Ye didn't hesitate and immediately went downstairs, took the car to the nearest affiliated hospital of a medical school.
Entering the hospital, Wang Ye first found an on-duty nurse in the lobby to inquire.
The type of check-up required by the marathon organizing committee involves printing a template of a pre-race check-up form for road athletes online and filling in personal information, family medical history, and various check-up data, then submitting it to a doctor in a second-level or higher comprehensive hospital for stamping to take effect.
But it's Wang Ye's first time participating in a marathon, so he's somewhat confused by these procedures. Fortunately, the on-duty nurse happened to know about this matter and patiently explained the whole process of the check-up to Wang Ye and his parents, like how to register, fill out the check-up form, and find a doctor for stamping, etc.
Wang Ye repeatedly thanked the on-duty nurse and then went to the registration window, spent a dozen bucks, registered at the cardiology department, followed the doctor's arranged procedure to pay, and did two simple check-up items.
Electrocardiogram and blood pressure.
An electrocardiogram involves lying on a bed while the doctor attaches some monitoring instruments to your body to track heart rate fluctuations. Measuring blood pressure involves inserting your arm into a cuff to test blood pressure.
These two check-up items took no more than three minutes each.
In less than half an hour, the three completed their check-up.
The total cost of registration plus check-up fees for the three was just over 100 bucks, extremely low.
Wang Ye held three electrocardiogram reports, returned to the clinic where he initially registered, and handed the three reports to Dr. Li, who is said to have been a research supervisor.
Dr. Li, approximately in his fifties or sixties, has baldness on half of his head, wears square reading glasses, with the glasses perched low, almost peering downwards. He sat in front of a computer, holding the three electrocardiogram reports, and gave them a quick glance.
There were no problems with the parents' electrocardiograms; their heart rates ranged from 60-70, quite healthy.
But when Dr. Li flipped to Wang Ye's electrocardiogram, his expression suddenly became somewhat solemn.
[Heart Rate: 38/min]
[Diagnosis: Sinus Bradycardia]
"You're an athlete, aren't you?" Dr. Li looked up and asked.
"Pretty much, I often practice running," Wang Ye nodded.
"People with running habits often have sinus bradycardia, but yours is a bit too bradycardic," Dr. Li frowned as he looked at Wang Ye's electrocardiogram.
Sinus bradycardia means the frequency of heartbeats per minute is too low.
A normal person's heart might beat around 60-70 times per minute, whereas bradycardia would see less than 50 beats per minute.
Wang Ye's is even more extraordinary.
His heart rate has reached as low as 38 beats per minute.
Actually, bradycardia isn't necessarily a bad thing. Apart from the possibility of heart disease, it might also mean his heart is trained to be much stronger than the average person's, pumping three times the blood volume with each beat, satisfying the body's blood requirement, thus the resting heart rate slows down to 30-plus beats per minute.
For someone like Wang Ye, who came for a check-up to participate in a marathon, bradycardia is most likely due to this reason. But most athletes' heart rates are usually around 50 times per minute, with only a handful of top athletes having around 40 beats per minute.
Yet Wang Ye's heart rate reached 38 beats per minute…
Of course, there are people whose heart rates reach the 30s but are extremely rare; if not cardiac patients, then they're top athletes who have been trained to the human limit.
Arguably, the ultimate sprinter in today's world, Bolt, has a heart rate of 33 times per minute.
Could Wang Ye have a heart capability similar to Bolt?
It doesn't make sense.
Dr. Li pondered for a long time and said:
"To be on the safe side, I suggest you undergo further testing, make a payment afterward, and do a cardiac ultrasound next door to see if there's any problem with your heart function."
"Alright," Wang Ye could only nod in agreement.
He couldn't simply tell the doctor that his bradycardia was due to evolved physiology, being overly fit.
Without solid test data, saying anything is futile. This is a hospital; the results from medical instruments are authoritative. In the end, whether the marathon check-up form can be stamped depends on the doctor's discretion.
Wang Ye took a payment slip from the doctor and went downstairs to pay over 200 bucks.
"Painful," he murmured.
As Wang Ye looked at the successful payment slip, his heart seemed to be bleeding.
His mother, who accompanied him, expressed concern: "Xiao Ye, don't feel bad about the money, health is most important. If the doctor says it needs rechecking, perhaps it's a sequel from your last illness."
His father chimed in: "Yeah, better be cautious. If there's a heart problem, we won't join the marathon. Get well first, then think about their county."
"Ugh... you all misunderstood."
Feeling amused yet helpless, Wang Ye shook his head.
He didn't elaborate further, holding the payment slip, went to the ultrasound room for a cardiac ultrasound, the whole process involved the doctor pressing the diagnostic instrument around on him.
This method allows direct observation of the atrial movements through a screen, being more accurate and intuitive than an electrocardiogram.
Soon after, Wang Ye put in another effort to obtain the ultrasound test report, ultimately presenting it to Dr. Li, which showed his heart function is completely normal. Apart from exceedingly high ejection power, all parameters are incredibly healthy, reflecting a top athlete's robust cardio-pulmonary system.
Dr. Li even supplemented with a remark:
"Worked in medicine for 30 years, never seen such a healthy heart."
Hearing this outcome, his initially worried parents also felt relieved. Though they don't understand the obscure functions of the heart, the assurance that their son is healthy was sufficient from the doctor's mouth.
And Wang Ye successfully obtained the stamped marathon check-up form.
Though the process was tumultuous, the outcome was delightful.
