"But won’t it delay the recording of Wilderness Survival Alone?"
Chen Wen asked.
He felt that Wilderness Survival Alone should be starting soon, given that so many slots had been confird.
"It’s still early."
Hua Yun said, scrolling through her phone, "Wilderness Survival Alone will probably start around this ti next year."
"That long?"
Chen Wen was shocked, his mouth wide open.
"What did you think? This traditional wilderness survival show requires a long ti for preparation."
"For Wilderness Survival Alone, to ensure its authority, the preparation ti is even longer."
Hua Yun explained helplessly.
She only now realized that although Chen Wen was very proficient in wilderness survival,
he really lacked common knowledge about survival shows!
However, Hua Yun wasn’t impatient; after all, she needed Chen Wen’s help.
So, Hua Yun began to educate Chen Wen: "Let’s put it this way, even if you were to prepare a show yourself, from start to finish, it would take at least three years, and that’s considered fast."
"First, you need to secure investnts and gather a team; this task alone takes several months. Then, you have to choose a survival location and negotiate with the locals. If the process goes smoothly, it might take over a month, and if not, it can delay you by half a year easily."
"And that’s just the preliminary work. Once that’s done, if it’s a self-fild project, you can start preparation. If it’s a group survival, you’ll need to recruit participants, which takes even longer."
"Once the actual filming begins, how long will you survive? At least several days, maybe a dozen at the minimum. Then there’s the post-production: re-shooting, editing, which is quite tedious and can take one or two months to complete."
"After it’s edited into a complete film, you’ll need to negotiate licensing, upload to online or TV platforms, and go through reviews. Whether dostically or internationally, the process is quite tedious."
By this point, Chen Wen was holding his head.
He thought that after this survival experience, he could directly find investors and shoot a series within one or two years.
But after hearing this, he feared that a year or two might only get one episode done.
In this world, the tiline for survival shows is generally quite lengthy.
"I guess it’s still better to participate in existing programs."
Chen Wen remarked thoughtfully.
He knew himself well; in terms of survival, he was top-notch.
But when it ca to all the miscellaneous tasks, he could only surrender.
The topic returned to Wilderness Survival: Two Together.
"The show is very well-funded; they offer a lot of money. Just by participating, we get three hundred thousand, thirty thousand US dollars each!"
Hua Yun said, "If we win the championship, each of us gets fifty thousand! All in US dollars."
"Damn."
Chen Wen couldn’t help but let out a curse, "So before even starting, they’ve spent over three million US dollars?"
"Not really, organized and famous figures like us definitely get more. Since you’ve won the championship, you’ll likely get that amount, but for ordinary people, it’s much less."
It really depends on the person, he thought it was Middle Eastern tycoon investnts.
Chen Wen nodded, "Then there’s no issue on my part, I can participate, given they agree."
Hua Yun, hearing this, felt quite moved.
Chen Wen was really helping out significantly this ti, and he was taking such a big risk.
"Alright, I’ll have the association communicate with them. Your reputation is already significant, plus with the Desert Death Battle championship title, they’re sure to offer a good price."
"But this ti, you need to pay special attention. The Yukon area is different from deserts and islands; it’s at a high latitude, near the polar region, very cold. It’s your first ti surviving in a high-latitude area, so be prepared."
Chen Wen nodded, "Don’t worry, I’m very adaptable; wherever I go, it’s my ho ground!"
The words sounded familiar.
Hua Yun nodded, "I hope you can create another miracle. Let’s join hands and enter Wilderness Survival Alone!"
"Count in!"
...
The discussion on Hua Yun’s side ended.
A week later, Chen Wen received notification from Liu Yu.
The matter of the two small animals was resolved.
The solution opened Chen Wen’s eyes.
This ti, Chen Wen’s survival location was in Arizona.
And a city in Arizona had ford a friendship city relation with a city in Hua Country in the last century.
Through his connections, Liu Yu contacted the leaders of these two cities.
In Hua Country, upon learning that Chen Wen was bringing glory to the country by winning a championship abroad, they were instantly interested.
The tourism industry in that city developed well but always struggled with promotional issues, hindering further growth.
And Chen Wen himself ca with his own following, quite popular dostically.
Though this survival couldn’t be broadcast within the country, the powerful netizens shouldn’t be underestimated.
This news and videos would definitely make their way back to the country.
Thus, after an internal discussion.
Hua Country decided to reach out to Arizona, using Chen Wen’s help in tourism promotion as leverage.
They decided to arrange to import a batch of animals to enrich the local zoo.
Arizona was more than happy to accept.
After all, the tourism and spending power of the people from Hua Country is famously high.
The other side had similar thoughts.
Both parties quickly found common ground, benefiting each other.
Chen Wen’s case beca an added bonus to this arrangent.
Arizona allowed Chen Wen to take the little owlet and the sharp-shinned hawk, and among the wild animals sent out, these two species were included.
Hua Country, in principle, allowed Chen Wen to keep these two animals but required relevant departnts to test them to ensure they wouldn’t bring any harm.
All in all, after a series of operations.
Chen Wen beca the legal owner of the little owlet and the sharp-shinned hawk and could keep them lawfully in Hua Country.
The only thing that left Chen Wen a bit bumd was that until he had a suitable place to settle the two animals,
they needed to stay at a zoo for so ti.
But Chen Wen wasn’t bumd for long.
Liu Yu soon brought more good news.
A friend of his had a private zoo, and if Chen Wen had no place to keep them, they could stay with his friend.
Liu Yu assured him that the person’s character was reliable and that he cherished animals and was happy to accept the little owlet and sharp-shinned hawk.
The most important thing was that he was wealthy, using only top-quality supplies.
If needed, the little owlet and sharp-shinned hawk could temporarily stay there.
After getting the consent of the little owlet, Chen Wen readily agreed to Liu Yu’s proposal.
The little owlet and sharp-shinned hawk would return to the country ahead of Chen Wen and await him at the private zoo.
After all, where he was headed next was definitely not a place for the little owlet and sharp-shinned hawk.
Overall, the matter was resolved satisfactorily.
And this set a good precedent for Chen Wen’s future acquisition of special animals.
...
After completing a dical checkup to ensure no health issues,
Chen Wen concluded his collaboration with the Desert Death Battle show’s crew.
In the end, he took a group photo with ten contestants and the crew, and exchanged a few words.

As for Wilderness Survival Alone, he knew well that with his skills, participation was the goal.
Black Charlie reportedly got hooked on a ga called PUBG, planning to transition into a PUBG strear.
He was very grateful to Chen Wen for pointing this path to him.
His sharp tongue in the ga lobby gained him a large fan base.
Everyone had their own things to do.
Except for Gina.
This failure left Gina completely down and out.
The company backing her planned to abandon Gina and support a younger female wilderness strear.
As for what happened to Gina, aside from a few remaining fans, no one cared.
On Chen Wen’s side, Jiang Chang and Lin Jiawei didn’t leave him.
Instead, they chose to accompany Chen Wen, heading north to Canada, traveling together to the Yukon area.
As association staff mbers, they were officially assigned to Chen Wen, becoming his work and personal assistants.
Lin Jiawei, also a workaholic, greatly appreciated Chen Wen’s work intensity.
Upon arrival, he had Chen Wen’s schedule all set.
And Jiang Chang thoughtfully prepared clothing and personal necessities for Chen Wen.
Feeling the increasingly cool Yukon area, Chen Wen knew well that a new challenge had arrived!
