A few days later.

Bell Griers, a future well-known explorer, officially signed a contract for "Single-player Crossing the Atlantic Ocean" with Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group and Causal ITV Broadcasting Corporation.

At the signing site, dozens of media reporters who arrived were also quite shocked.

Crossing the Atlantic Ocean alone?

"Really or not?"

"God, this is impossible!"

"It's hard to say, single person, kayaking, carrying only a small amount of food and water, but sailing more than 10,000 miles of Atlantic Ocean, storms along the way, are enough to collapse any warriors."

"The most important thing is that this guy named Bell will sail on the sea for more than 3 months!"

"Oh my god, this is simply challenging the limits of humanity!"

“Not only that!”

"Although Bell Grylls was once an excellent special forces soldier and did not lack courage, if he wanted to cross the Atlantic Ocean, he would definitely need a huge amount of knowledge reserves in climatology, oceanography, physiology and medicine, etc. Otherwise, he would be just seeking death!"

Dozens of media reporters on the scene could not hide their shock.

Crossing the Atlantic alone is definitely an extremely difficult and even impossible challenge!

“Huh?”

"Calm down! Who do you see?"

At this moment, someone suddenly shouted in the crowd of reporters.

"It's Zucker, it's Mr. Zucker Wald!"

That's right, Zhu Ke was at the signing site.

Not only that, there were two heavyweights who came with Zhuke.

Greg Clark!

He is the CEO of the FA Executive Department. His local football circle in the UK is the European football field and has great popularity. In 2016, he will also be promoted to the top leader of the FA;

"You ask me why I'm here?"

Greg Clark laughed: "As we all know, football is a team sport, and it takes collective victory as the benchmark, but there is never a lack of heroes on the football field, single-handedly rushing to the front and turning the tide."

"We were deeply shocked by Mr. Bell Griers, who was going to cross the Atlantic alone and challenge a near-impossible project."

"So, this time I came here to serve the FA and 217 professional football teams in the UK, and tell Bale - God is with you!"

After the words came to an end, warm applause suddenly came to mind.

Many people couldn't help but nod.

However...it's actually nonsense!

If Zucker is not the owner of Manchester City, and if Manchester City did not succeed in returning to the Premier League with the first place in the 199-00 season in the past 1st season, Greg Clark would not have come to stand up and endorse him.

(Note: The English Champions League was established in 2004, and the English League One was still the second-level league in 2000.)

Speaking of Manchester City's investment, Zucker undoubtedly made another profit.

In 1998, Zucker successfully took over Manchester City club in the English League Two at the time with a price of 52 million pounds;

In the 1998-1999 season, with the full support of Zucker, and with the coaching of the future "famous coach" Munionho, Manchester City club successfully brought back to the League One;

In the just-passed season from 1999 to 2000, Manchester City club jumped again and returned to the Premier League.

Market value has surged!

In just over two years, the Manchester City club that Zucker bought for £52 million is now worth more than £80 million.

And, there is good news.

Sky Sports is negotiating with the Premier League club league. In the near future, it is very likely that the live broadcast and broadcast costs will be greatly increased. If the negotiations go smoothly, the market value of Manchester City clubs will definitely rise again after the start of the new season!

Of course, even if the market value of Manchester City clubs doubles, it still has a tiny existence in Zucker's various industries.

However, there is one thing that is undeniable.

When Zucker acquires Manchester City Club, he is not interested in how much it is worth, but how famous it can bring to Zucker and how powerful it is, which can make Zucker's other industries refresh the popularity and influence of famous brands. This is the main purpose.

The other person also appeared!

——Michael Pratt!

He is the chairman of the Royal National Lifeboat Association (charity) of the UK, and he is also the chairman of Languan Capital, one of the well-known hedge funds in the UK.

Languan Capital is a well-known hedge fund in the UK and is the third largest hedge fund in Europe.

Many major banks such as Hang Seng Bank, Citibank and Morgan Bank all hope to cooperate with it. Under the leadership of Pratt, Languan Capital has performed remarkable, and the transaction commissions and other service fees paid to banks every year alone are as high as tens of millions of dollars.

"My purpose is very simple. Mr. Juke Wald and I are friends with each other. We have a common topic in the field of financial investment."

"Mr. Bell Griers, crossing the Atlantic alone is definitely a risky challenge!"

“Look at venture capital?”

"It's also full of treacherous clouds, which is exactly the same as Bell's spirit of adventure, so I'm here, and I'm happy to come!"

Michael Pratt shouted loudly in front of the camera.

In the following time, the media reporters at the scene focused their attention on Zhuke.

After all, Zhuke is not only a world-renowned super rich man and a film company owner, but also one of the initiators of this "single-person crossing the Atlantic Ocean", which naturally attracts much attention.

Zhuke stood on the rostrum, faced a group of media reporters and began to speak.

"adventure?"

"No, I hope to say it is an adventure! An adventure that challenges humanity's limits!"

"The earth, we humans have conquered!"

"Sky, we humans have conquered!"

"Ocean, we have conquered too!"

"However, in the process of conquest, we rely on wisdom, technology and courage, among which technological factors occupy the most important position!"

"So, can we humans conquer the ocean by relying solely on wisdom and courage?"

"So, this challenge of crossing the Atlantic alone was born!"

"One person, one kayak, only carrying a small amount of food and drinking water. I think that this challenge can still be completed. Bell is the most suitable and courageous challenger!"

...........

The press conference is over.

However, this challenge of crossing the Atlantic alone was not immediately executed.

Bell needs to prepare!

Bell has all learned about the knowledge reserves in oceanography, climatology, biology, etc., but he doesn't need to strive for excellence again. After all, the difficulty of this challenge is too great.

If you start the action rashly, it will only end in failure.

In the original time and space, Bell prepared for three years before officially starting the challenge of crossing the Atlantic alone. Although the main reason was Bell's economic reasons, it was also a link for him to supplement his knowledge and preparation.

“7 months!”

"I need at least seven months to prepare, and it's August. By October and November, the Atlantic Ocean will be affected by currents and seasons, and the climate will become very cold and the difficulty will increase a lot. Therefore, if you want to complete this challenge, you can only wait for the beginning of spring next year."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Ke agreed.

The filming team jointly established by Jin Shuguang and ITV also agreed with this decision.

"This is my new plan after starting the movie's external strategy and starting the overseas strategy of TV!" Zucker clenched his fists.
Chapter completed!
