King of the Wilderness

Chapter 652: Chapter 318: Realm of the Three Extremes Mountain (Part 3)

These three commitments are all significant, clearly demonstrating the terrifying power of ”national strength”: providing unmatched, overwhelming support within the framework allowed by the rules to any commercial company in the world.

Zhang Chengzhi’s expression became extremely serious, and he changed his tone: ”However, with support comes red lines. I hope you and all the business partners present understand that these three red lines absolutely cannot be crossed.”

”The first is the legal red line. Any national first or second-level protected plants and animals not on the white list in the Wildlife Protection Law are strictly forbidden to be touched.”

”Particularly hunting activities, which must be strictly limited to trapping non-protected list animals like hares, bamboo rats, and small animals, and within fishing ranges.”

”The hunting of any large animals is prohibited unless it complies with our forestry department’s population control plans and is a documented volunteer activity.”

”The second is the safety red line. Your personal safety is the premise of all our guarantees. You must wear the military-grade Beidou satellite emergency rescue beacon we provide at all times.”

”If the security team in the rear assesses your vital signs show extreme abnormalities, or if you proactively send a distress signal, we have the right to unconditionally terminate the challenge and immediately intervene in the rescue. This is not a suggestion; it is an order.”

”The third, and also the most important, is the cultural and ideological red line.”

Zhang Chengzhi’s gaze swept over everyone present, including CAA and David Cohen, ”In this program, we hope to showcase to the world a beautiful, confident, and open China, an Oriental philosophy of harmonious coexistence between humans and nature.”

”We welcome real challenges and difficulties, but absolutely do not allow any deliberate uglification of the environment, distortion of facts, or sensational footage to appear for the sake of creating a buzz.”

”For the final editing of content, we hope there will be a fact-checking process to ensure all scientific and cultural background expressions are accurate.”

After saying this, the entire conference room fell silent. Zhang Chengzhi not only provided reassurance but also set clear constraints, which was both an escort for the project and a kind warning.

Lin Yu’an nodded solemnly: ”Director Zhang, please rest assured, as well as the other leaders. The core of Wilderness Mountain Realm is precisely a reverence for nature and respect for rules. We fully accept and will strictly adhere to all your requirements.”

”Good!” Zhang Chengzhi finally showed a truly satisfied smile, ”The strategic and policy support at the macro level is now officially settled.”

”Next, it’s down to the details of commercial implementation, which is the domain of you professionals.”

He smiled and extended his hand to CAA’s producer David Cohen and the heads of Penguin Video and TikTok, ”We, the service personnel, will not take up your valuable commercial negotiation time.”

The tense atmosphere was completely ignited by these words, turning into a consensus and expectation shared by everyone.

After warmly shaking hands with Lin Yu’an and various business giants, Director Zhang Chengzhi, Vice Director Li of Jilin, and Director Yang of Sichuan, left first accompanied by staff.

Their task was completed, paving the most critical road for this epic-level project.

As the heavy conference room door slowly closed, the composition of the people in the room also underwent a subtle change.

The departure of the official personnel meant the atmosphere in the venue instantly shifted from the patriotic strategic height just now to a more purely direct business negotiation filled with interest games.

David Cohen glanced at his watch and smiled at the remaining people: ”Well, ladies and gentlemen. The first half is over, now let’s move to the small conference room next door, have a cup of coffee, and start our second half.”

In the more private and exquisite small conference room next door, everyone adopted a more relaxed posture, but the keen sense of business in the air grew stronger.

CAA’s senior producer, David Cohen, was the first to break the silence. He didn’t rush to discuss the distribution but first laid down a significant cornerstone for the negotiation.

”Ladies and gentlemen,” he sipped his coffee gracefully, ”before discussing the largest slice of the pie, the distribution rights, I want to share a piece of good news, which can set a more relaxed foundation for our upcoming discussion.”

He pressed a remote control in his hand, and on the display screen on the side wall, a silver three-pointed star logo slowly lit up.

David’s voice was powerful, ”Mercedes-Benz has officially signed a chief strategic cooperation agreement with us.”

”They will provide an exclusive naming sponsorship totaling 3 million dollars for the first season of Wilderness Mountain Realm and provide our ground support team with the latest G-level off-road vehicles as full-time support vehicles. This funding will be our project’s production budget.”

This news was like a reassurance pill, causing General Manager Li of Penguin Video and General Manager Wang of TikTok to show approving expressions.

With the strong support of an international top brand, the program’s quality and commercial prospects have the most solid guarantee, meaning their upcoming bidding may be exceptionally fierce.

”Since the production budget has been settled,” David Cohen smiled at General Manager Li and General Manager Wang, ”let’s talk about the real focus of today — the exclusive distribution rights in the Greater China Region.”

General Manager Li was the first to make an offer, displaying the composure of the long video leader: ”We at Penguin Video are willing to offer 3.5 million dollars to buy out the exclusive online broadcasting rights of the first season of Wilderness Mountain Realm in the Greater China Region. We will provide S+ level internal resources and coordinate the entire Tencent ecosystem to ensure the program peaks upon launch.”

This is a very sincere price and aligns with the market trends of top-tier content.

The atmosphere in the conference room instantly became subtle.
