, The fastest update to Hollywood’s latest chapters starting from animation!
London, England.
A residential building in the Corina community.
This is not a rich area, but an ordinary middle-class community.
"Sarah, don't worry, I will let you live a good life. This is my promise."
At home, the 26-year-old Bell Grylls made an affectionate promise to his new wife.
"I believe in you!" Sarah believed her husband very much.
However, the young Bell's firm eyes flashed a looming sense of melancholy.
Family!
He had just gotten married not long ago, and he already felt the pressure from his family deeply.
"But what I like the most is not a plain life, but an exciting career of adventure ~ challenging myself time and time again!"
Bell thought about it.
From 1994 to 1997, he served in the 21st British Airborne Special Service Regiment and was selected by the British Special Forces to become a pioneer. He is good at hand-to-hand combat, desert and cold combat, and he has many advantages that ordinary people can hardly match with survival skills, medical treatment, parachuting, signaling, evasive driving, climbing and explosions.
In 1997, injured and retired;
In 1998, when he was only 24 years old, he successfully climbed Mount Everest and reached the top, becoming the youngest man in the world to reach the top of Mount Everest.
In 2006, he cooperated with the American Discovery Channel to film the "Survival in the Wild" program.
Carrying thin equipment, Bell went deep into the most inaccessible areas in the world. Show people how to survive. Places visited include: Costa Rica jungle, Utah desert, Pacific Islands, Sierra Nevada, Alps...
All the bugs
All plants
Snakes, insects, rats and ants, etc., are his prey.
"Crack and crisp, chicken flavor!"
"Its fat energy is 3~6 times that of beef!"
Long as they can see something, even if it is a carrier of the deadly toxin animals, can only become his food, especially when he was bitten by insects burst mouth, broke a green slurry, so many people terrified of, and therefore be Many people call it "Pei Ye", "the man at the top of the food chain".
In a word, he is a man who is not willing to be constrained by ordinary life. He likes adventures and challenges!
but......
He sometimes has to face the cruel reality!
It takes money to survive.
"Life has never been smooth sailing!"-Pushkin (Russian).
So far, Bell has not had a permanent job. The livelihood that can make a living is to publish and sell one's own adventures, such as the experience of climbing Mount Everest.
"Boom boom boom!"
"Mr. Bell Grylls, I'm the landlord, Mrs. Belon!"
The voice coming from outside the house immediately made the Bell and Sarah couple inside the house feel tight.
"Bell, we are in arrears of two months' rent. She must have come to ask for money." Sarah worried.
"Don't worry, everything has me." Bell comforted.
Real men dare to face all suffering, but...sometimes you have to learn to bow to reality!
Contradictory?
However, this is reality!
After Mrs. Veron came in, she sighed and said, "Bell, Sarah, I know you don’t have a lot of money, and you just got married, but you also need to know that my family will have to eat, and you haven’t paid the rent for these two months. Have I urged it? I have no choice but to come today."
It can be said that the attitude of the landlord’s wife is really good.
If you encounter a landlord with a bad attitude and a very bad personality, let alone arrears of 2 months rent, even if you delay for a few days, they will chatter, or even blast you away very rudely, and your things will be too. Was thrown out in a brainstorm.
"Mrs. Veron, you know, my book will be finished soon. As long as it is published, I can make money. Then...well, Sarah and I will move out as soon as possible. , Please give us three days, and at the same time, the money owed to you, I will definitely pay it back soon!" Bell gritted his teeth.
A penny stumps a hero.
"Hey~"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Veron sighed: "I don't want to urge you, but this is the reality. I know that you are not rich for the time being. You don't have to rush to pay back the rent. Well, as long as you remember to pay it back."
"Thank you! Thank you very much!"
Bell has nothing but thanks at the moment.
Mrs. Veron's house can't be rented to him, he can't resent, after all, others also need to survive.
.......
The next day.
Bell's wife Sarah left home early and went to the nearest housing center to find new and cheap housing as soon as possible.
They really don't have much money!
At the same time, although the Bells have no money, they do not want to continue to owe Mrs. Veron's rent. Therefore, while his wife Sarah is looking for a new house today, she also shoulders a mission, which is to sell her necklaces that she has just married. Drop.
In the words of his wife Sarah: "Mrs. Veron takes care of us very much. She continues to spend money. We can't continue to owe her two months' rent even if we move out of her house."
Bell was very pleased with Sarah's generosity, but at the same time he resented herself quite a bit.
A man who can't support his family, is he still a man? !
"adventure?"
"Shit!"
"I like adventures, challenges, traversing deserts with scorching sun, hiking on glaciers that are inaccessible for millions of years, enjoying sky diving, and crossing the ocean in kayaks..."
"But what's the point of all this?"
"It can't let me support my family!"
Obviously, the burden of life and the pressure of family make Bell, who likes to take risks, jumps, and restless in his bones, has the idea of quieting down completely.
Ding Ding Ding~
At this moment, the phone in the room rang.
-Moza Bach.
He is an editor at the University of London Press.
"Bell, I have to tell you a piece of news. The book "Face" written by your experience on the summit of Mount Everest was rejected by the editor in chief." Editor Moza Bach said solemnly.
boom!
This news is undoubtedly a bolt from the blue and worse for Bell, who has fallen into a trough in his life.
"Mr. Bach, can you tell me where the editor-in-chief White is dissatisfied with "Face"? You tell me, I will revise it immediately!" Bell said anxiously, he could not give up this opportunity~www.wuxiaspot.com~silence~
After a long time, the editor Moza Bach said: "Bell, to be honest, I like the book "Face" very much, and I like the adventures you describe in the book, especially your spirit of not being discouraged. The blood boiled over again and again, but... you know, the editor-in-chief White is not optimistic about it."
After speaking, editor Moza Bach immediately hung up the phone regardless of Bell's attitude.
5 times!
This is the fifth time that Bell has rejected it!
