S.H.I.E.L.D. Team!

The terrain that must be traversed in the race is much more complex and difficult than that of a regular rally, and the participating vehicles are all real off-road vehicles, rather than the modified sedans used in regular rallies.

Most stages of a rally are in remote, uninhabited areas with complex and treacherous terrain, requiring drivers to traverse sand dunes, mud, grass, rocks, and deserts. The distance a vehicle travels each day can range from a few kilometers to hundreds of kilometers. The entire race is extremely arduous and dangerous, and nearly half of the drivers have to withdraw from the race each year, either due to vehicle malfunctions or for safety reasons.

The entire race lasted for more than ten days, all on complex and treacherous road conditions. In addition to requiring drivers to have strong physical strength, endurance and mental qualities, the requirements for the cars were extremely stringent. Almost all the cars encountered various malfunctions and problems during the race.

Behind every participating vehicle is a large logistics and maintenance team to ensure timely repairs in case of malfunctions or damage.

Champion the Dakar Rally, an incredibly tough competition, is a huge affirmation for any participating vehicle.

This is also why Chen Mo chose Dakar.

Moreover, the vehicles that participated in the Dakar Rally in the past were basically heavily modified off-road vehicles. Although this could demonstrate the strength of the car company and increase the popularity and influence of the model to a certain extent, it was not the original mass-produced car after all, so its effect on promoting the sales of the model was limited.

Chen Mo, however, did not intend to make any performance modifications to the Knight and would instead use a regular mass-produced car to participate in the competition.

The Knight itself has a high chassis height, which can be adjusted automatically or manually according to road conditions, making its off-road capability no less than that of heavily modified off-road vehicles.

If the unmodified production model wins the Champion in this most rigorous off-road challenge, the publicity effect on "Knight" will be much stronger than Chen Mo spending hundreds of millions on publicity.

"Mr. Sains, I am now formally inviting you to join our S.H.I.E.L.D. team and drive the 'Knight' in the Dakar Rally next month."

Chen Mo looked at Carlos Sains seriously and said solemnly.

"Of course, I have no reason to refuse. It's an honor to join S.H.I.E.L.D. team., my boss!"

Upon hearing Chen Mo's earnest invitation, Carlos Sains couldn't help but smile, standing up as he spoke.

Chen Mo also stood up from his chair and smiled as he extended his right hand to Carlos Sains, the first driver of the S.H.I.E.L.D. team, a veteran of the racing circuit, the "The Matador".

"Welcome to the team, Carlos!"

Their hands clasped tightly together.

Since Su Wan was busy with the construction of the industrial park and advertising, Chen Mo planned to entrust the task of forming the S.H.I.E.L.D. team to Anna. Before her arrival, Chen Mo asked Carlos Sains to use his connections to contact some excellent engineers and maintenance technicians, as well as core personnel of the team's logistics team in medical, communications, and information technology fields.

Carlos Sains originally intended to form his own team to compete in this year's Dakar.

Having been a prominent figure in the racing world for many years and having competed in the Dakar for ten consecutive years, Carlos Sains naturally has many acquaintances, many of whom are among the best in the industry. He already has a list of the strongest lineup in his mind, but it is not easy to gather them all together.

The top talents naturally command the highest prices. Even if Carlos Sains could persuade them to switch teams and join his team, he wouldn't have enough money to pay them the compensation they deserve. Therefore, Carlos Sains initially planned to implement a different "best value list".

However, with the support of the super-rich Chen Mo, Carlos Sains no longer needs to worry about money. All personnel can be arranged according to his optimal plan, assembling the best and most experienced people to form a top team that is no weaker than any established powerhouse!

After discussing the team's formation in detail with Chen Mo in the office and receiving Chen Mo's promise that he didn't need to worry about money, Carlos Sains left the company with excitement and high hopes, and began contacting relevant personnel.

Of course, he was only responsible for recruiting relevant personnel in the early stages of the team's formation. Once Anna arrived, she would be in charge of these recruitment and team administration work. Carlos Sains would only need to provide a list of recommendations and his own needs, and Anna would handle everything else. He could then focus all his energy on preparing for the upcoming Dakar Rally.

The "Knight" advertisement was completed. With thorough pre-production and a huge advertising budget, it began to be broadcast on a large scale that very night on television, the internet, and LED screens on buildings in major cities across the United States.

The three-minute-long advertisement can be considered extravagant, making countless people exclaim "rich man!" The content of the advertisement is even more amazing, with realistic gunfights, intense wilderness chases, and savage collisions at high speeds. Almost everyone who saw the advertisement for the first time thought it was a movie trailer, and they were all attracted by the intense, exciting, and incredibly explosive scenes.

"Holy crap! Is that a Vulcan cannon? It's so powerful, they're using heavy firepower right from the start! The vehicles in front will be blown to bits in no time!"

"Waiting to watch the fireworks!"

"Huh? The car window can even pop out a flap, this car must be something special!"

"After being hit by so many bullets, it only lost some paint. Is this car a tank?"

"This chase scene in the wilderness was so exciting!"

"This driver's skills are amazing! Please tell me it's Schumacher driving!"

"Is there a new sequel to Fast & Furious?"

"Wait, I think this must be a new 007 movie. Bond has a new car again!"

"They must be the Transporter! Didn't you see the car in front of them trying to escape? And their driving skills were amazing!"

"This car looks so familiar!"

"Now that you put it that way, it's a bit..."

"Isn't that the five-million-dollar super armored car?!"

"What? You're saying this car actually exists in real life?"

As people watched, besides marveling at the thrill of the scene and the car's powerful performance, some gradually noticed something amiss.

"The camera seems to follow this car the whole time, without switching shots; the entire scene is captured in one continuous take!"

"Which director is so awesome and dares to film like this! How many takes would that take? And how much would such a long special effects cost! Is it really necessary to do this?"
