Hi

I understood that, now, I have another issue. The main domain the is used in 
the zone ( zone "example.com" ) don't resolve to anything and I want it to be 
resolved from 8.8.8.8, while the sub-domains still resolve from my DNS as 
specified in the zone record file.

With a standard BIND zone, you can't.  Wildcards match multiple labels.  That 
goes to the earliest days of the DNS, 
https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc1034#section-4.3.3.

You'd need a specialized handler to do this.
