809 Jack Ma touches the elephant
Jack Ma attended the award ceremony in Cameroon last year and came and went in a hurry.
Arriving in Sudan early this year, he wanted to get a feel for the real life of some rangers.
Because Maria is one of the few female rangers on the grassland, Ma Yun deliberately discussed with the organizers and Sudanese officials and decided to visit the rangers at the checkpoint where Maria is located.
Liu Wei's performance was recognized by the black leader, who once again opened the arsenal at the checkpoint and said to Liu Wei, "Pick a weapon that fits!"
Liu Wei did not hesitate and chose an M16, compared to ak47 and SKS, the recoil and sound of this weapon are the most comfortable for Liu Wei.
To avoid accidents.
The black team leader also found Liu Wei a body armor.
"Thank you!" Liu Wei put on and thanked him, "Don't you need it?"
The leader shook his head, "I can finish off the poacher before he shoots!"
With a faint smile on his face.
The tone is extremely confident.
"OK! Liu, let's go!"
The leader assembles the team.
Five of the rangers were each holding a patrol dog, all Labradoodles.
According to Maria, the patrol dogs are trained and provided by the South African Wildlife Conservation Foundation.
They have a keen sense of smell and a lot of patrol experience.
The oldest patrol dog has participated in more than 1,000 patrol missions and has been on patrol many times.
"Mother Han, you hand over your patrol dog to Liu Wei!" said the team leader.
Liu Wei smiled: "I also have a good dog!"
"Chubby!"
shouted.
Chubby and Flathead jumped off Hunter's SUV at the same time.
When Brother Pingtou saw so many dogs, he was a little nervous and a little fierce.
Liu Wei squatted down and patted Brother Pingtou's back, "We are all friends!"
The patrol team saw Liu Wei's partner and smiled.
The leader gave the order: "Let's go!"
The ranger standing at the front had just taken a few steps when the roar of car engines could be heard in the distance, and there were more than one.
It's like a convoy.
The team leader looked back: "Wait a minute!"
Ten minutes later, several off-road vehicles drove over, and in the middle of the convoy was an armored car.
Maria first recognized the identity of the convoy, "It's the police force's car!"
"What are they doing here?"
This question popped up in everyone's minds.
Is there a big move?
Liu Wei guessed.
Based on the number of vehicles, it is possible to roughly guess the armed forces.
He looked at the black leader of the ranger, and the leader also had a puzzled look on his face.
That's not right!
If there is a large poacher gang or local armed activity in the area, the checkpoint should be the first to know.
The off-road vehicles drove into the checkpoint and stopped one after another.
The team leader first greeted them, shook hands with them, and saluted each other.
Liu Wei's attention was on the armored car in the middle.
The armored vehicles turned on.
Several heavily armed Sudanese policemen stepped down and stood around the car door, and then a familiar face came out with a smile, followed by two muscular men in suits, who looked like security guards.
"Jack Ma!"
Liu Wei's eyes widened.
The Sudanese police leader in charge of Ma Yun's security explained his intention to the patrol leader.
The ranger leader responded: "I know, I'll arrange it!"
The team leader walked back to the team and said, "Mr. Ma Yun came to visit our rangers, everyone is warmly welcome!"
Applause rang out.
Jack Ma's fame in Africa is indeed quite high.
In addition to investment, we also do a lot of charity activities.
In the hearts of the Prairie Ranger, he is a very great entrepreneur.
The annual Prairie Ranger Award Ceremony carries a very heavy weight in their hearts.
Seeing Jack Ma, the most excited thing is Maria, who has been shortlisted for this year's list.
Maria rubbed her hands, expecting Jack Ma to walk in front of her.
Ma Yun walked up to the rangers, said a few words of condolence, and then shook hands with the rangers one by one.
"Good work!"
"Thank you, Mr. Jack Ma!"
The black friends of the patrol team expressed their sincere gratitude.
Ma Yun walked up to Liu Wei, his neck shrunk, and his face showed a look of surprise, and he could see at a glance that Liu Wei was a Chinese.
"Are there any of our Chinese compatriots in the patrol?" asked Ma Yun, looking at Liu Wei and the black team leader.
Liu Wei took the initiative to reply: "I just joined today, I want to feel the life of a ranger!"
Ma Yun smiled and patted Liu Wei's shoulder, and said with concern, "Young man, do you live in Africa?"
Hi~!
You don't know me!
It seems that the reputation of the country needs to be improved!
"Mr. Ma, my name is Liu Wei, I came to Africa to engage in scientific research activities, and I happened to pass by the checkpoint yesterday!" Liu Wei said.
"Liu Wei!", Ma Yun thought for a while, "What a familiar name!"
"I remember! Did you shoot that documentary in China not long ago?" Ma Yun is still very serious about paying attention to ecological issues.
Liu Wei smiled: "Yes!"
"The shooting was very good, and when I watched the documentary, I couldn't believe that it was shot by a domestic team!"
Liu Wei said: "Mr. Ma, let's be honest, this documentary is co-produced by my studio and Tencent!"
Ma Yun smiled: "Ma Huateng's consciousness has improved a lot in recent years, and he knows how to do something with connotation!"
Liu Wei smiled accordingly.
Ma Yun asked, "Are you ready to go?"
The black leader nodded and led the team into the SUV.
Jack Ma is still sitting in an armored car.
Soon after the convoy drove out, it encountered an adult male steppe elephant.
The steppe elephant looked at the convoy, stopped, and stood at the front of the convoy.
The convoy also stopped.
Ma Yun got off the armored car, walked up, and said excitedly: "I saw a steppe elephant for the first time on the African grassland!"
The black team leader said: "This grassland elephant has a lifespan of 40 years, and has been targeted by poachers many times, and under our protection, it has survived safely until now!"
"You've worked hard!", Ma Yun looked up at the grassland elephant and asked, "Will it attack people?"
Liu Wei continued: "Yes when you are angry, but this grassland elephant is very familiar with the rangers, and it has no sense of attack.
In its current state, it seems that it is only very curious, and the grassland elephant itself is an extremely curious animal!"
Ma Yun smiled: "Liu Wei, how did you understand the idea of the grassland elephant?"
Liu Wei said with a smile: "Teacher Ma, there is a specialization in the art industry, this belongs to my professional field, and the long-term experience and rich professional knowledge can allow you to judge the behavior of the beast more accurately!"
"Hahaha!", Ma Yun smiled, "Liu Wei, I want to touch it!"
Liu Wei proposed Ma Yun's idea to the ranger leader, and the black team leader smiled and nodded, "Of course you can, it's our friend, Mr. Ma Yun, it won't hurt you!"
Ma Yun followed Liu Wei to the grassland elephant.
The steppe elephant suddenly raised its head and curled its nose and let out a long roar.
Jack Ma took a few steps back.
"Teacher Ma, it's very excited, and it doesn't have any resistance, you don't have to be afraid!" Liu Wei said.
Ma Yun wanted to believe Liu Wei's judgment, walked to the edge of the grassland elephant's ear, raised his head and sighed, "It's too big!"
The ranger leader stroked the ears of the steppe elephant, "Yoni, we haven't seen each other in days!"
After calming the mood of the grassland elephant, the team leader said to Ma Yun: "Mr. Ma Yun, you can try it!"
