Extend a hanging beam? Possible?

Hello,
during my complete makeover of the hosue, I am moving a wall. The old hanging beam 1 was resting on the old wall. This wall is getting moveed by appr. 1 m. The old hanging beam 2, will be supported by the new wall, but the beam 1 won't. Can they be somehow joined together? Bolted/nailed?

Or will I reall have to replace the beam 1 with a longer beam so it reaches the new wall?
thanks!
