Meanwhile, Wu also pointed out the difficulty for its prevalence in China. "Despite its promising development expectation, the difficulty to promote it can never be underestimated," he said, indicating the lack of government support as well as misunderstanding among people, who regards hot air balloon as "dangerous", "explosive" and privileged. "Only time can erase such fear. Undeniably right now a balloon costs as high as tens of thousands RMB, but it does not mean that ordinary people can not participate in the game. With the promotion of various sport events, many government departments have joined us, which forms a firm base for its further expansion."
