The fish I catch can be upgraded

Chapter 292 The Game Begins

The time soon came to night, and Chu Mingcheng set up a barbecue grill on the back deck.

Of course, because the competition is about to start tomorrow, the port tonight is bustling with contestants coming and going.

There are about [-] boats at the pier alone, of which fishing boats and fishing boats seem to account for about half, and fishing boats can also be divided into trawler and ordinary fishing boats, etc., which shows that there are many fishermen participating in the competition.

Calculated based on five people per boat, at least 500 people, the vast area is like a middle school morning meeting.

When he first came to the meeting in the afternoon, Chu Mingcheng hadn't noticed any problems, but he found something a little wrong in this meeting.

So he said to Chen Yang, who was helping beside him: "There are so many people, the 50 prize money is so attractive? Are there so many people participating?"

"You don't know?" Chen Yang was surprised.

"What should I know?" Chu Mingcheng also showed a puzzled expression.

"No, don't you even go online?" Chen Yang took off his disposable gloves helplessly, took out his phone and opened a page for him to read.

"This fishing competition has been trending all over the place, and the organizers didn't expect it to be so lively, with so many participants."

"So some of the original competition rules and bonuses are invalidated. The new rules and bonuses will be announced tomorrow."

"Ah, I've been laying flat for the past few days, and I didn't pay attention to these at all. It seems that the fishing competition is popular, and the organizer has made a lot of money!"

Chu Mingcheng didn't expect so many things to happen when he didn't pay attention to this game for more than ten days.

He also wondered, there are many fishing competitions, when did they become so lively.

Depending on the situation, the organizers probably didn't expect it. After all, it was the first tuna fishing competition held in China, and they didn't think it would attract many people.

That's why the person in charge at the time saw that Chu Mingcheng and Jiang Luoluo were handsome and the other was beautiful, and they also specialized in tuna fishing, so they specifically mentioned it.

Under normal circumstances, who would be troublesome!
But everyone in the organizer underestimated the original attraction of 50 yuan and the fishing guys' enthusiasm for fishing.

In addition, the organizers took the initiative to announce the change of the competition rules and the bonus increase, which made more people excited.

Therefore, during the following period, the number of fishing boats increased rapidly.There are both large and small boats, as long as they can go to the far sea, and those near the magic capital are here.

Don't look at the ships going to the high seas to make money, but the cost is high, and there are many people who share it.

Retail fishermen have worked hard for a year, and it is estimated that there are more than 10,000+20.

If you are lucky enough to get No.5, even if five people share it together, it will be worth their average income of three or four months.

After all, only a lucky few can encounter such a situation where the net explodes. Most of the boats that go to the far sea to cast the net can't catch much valuable seafood with a single net. This is the situation of most fishermen.

Of course, fishermen who go out to sea all the year round know very well that pure tuna fishing and not net fishing, the chance of losing money for a month at sea is definitely greater than making money.

There are only a few places where you can catch tuna in the East China Sea. One is the northeast side of the East China Sea near Xiaotian, which is the fishing ground that Chu Mingcheng took Chen Yang and the others to and the surrounding area.

There are no other places, but basically the tuna encountered are passing by and will not stay for a long time, and the chance of encountering them is far less than that of a few specific areas.

The second is to go to Dongsha or the southern part of Baodao, but the fuel consumption of going to the southern part of Baodao in Shanghai is too horrible, so no one goes back.

Of course, the organizers are not allowed to run that far. There are many patrol boats and drones tracking and shooting this fishing competition. How can they take pictures if they run far?

There are few places and many boats, and only fishing is allowed, and there are also fish weight requirements in the rules.

In this case, they still come to participate in the competition, but if they really can't do it, they can withdraw from the competition at any time and go back to continue fishing.

Time is too long to waste, but a week is perfectly fine.

Of course, in addition to the vast majority of fishermen and anglers who participated in the competition, among the people at the port tonight, there were also many Internet celebrities who took selfies with their mobile phones or were accompanied by photographers.

Both men and women, most of whom are women.

Where did this group of people come to fish?
It's all because of the excitement of the fishing competition, the hot search, the high attention, and the traffic.

The traffic from the self-media catching sea fishing has always been good, let alone the first tuna fishing competition in China.

Their boats must all be rented. After going out to sea for a few days, they will withdraw from the competition. Showing their faces and hanging out with famous fishermen can increase a wave of traffic.

Moreover, the cost of renting a boat for five people is not high.

It's only been two or three years. If it had been a few years earlier, the organizer would have held a tuna contest that would definitely not be as popular as it is now. There are always some monsters and monsters who can see every bit of it.

After Chu Mingcheng understood the situation, he continued to work on the barbecue in his hand.

After a full night of eating and drinking, the next day, the port was full of excitement.

The red flags fluttering, crowds of people, and the sound of gongs and drums are quite spectacular.

On the stage that had been set up a long time ago, five or six middle-aged people with potbellies and a figure comparable to that of tuna appeared one after another, and none of them was skinny.

The host made a grand introduction, and then several middle-aged people took turns to give a few speeches. The contestants sitting in front of the stage gave a lot of face, and the leaders went down and applauded once.

In addition to talking nonsense, several middle-aged people also explained some of the rules changed this time.

There are not many changes to the rules. The main reason is that many reporters will go out to sea for random interviews and reports this time.

Secondly, the competition was originally won based on weight, but now it has been changed to the total value of the fish.

It's the same as the tuna competition in foreign countries. The more valuable the fish caught, the higher the probability of winning the ranking, and the quantity has become the second.

It's right to think about it, no matter how heavy the weight is, it's just a fisherman's bullshit.

But the total value of fish caught by No.1 exceeds millions or even millions, so the next time the competition is held, won't it be more lively than this time?
At that time, the tuna fishing competition may become a landmark event in Shanghai.

As for whether some will buy boats and go to sea one after another because they see how profitable fishing is, what does this have to do with the organizers and the shipyards that pay for advertising?
Chu Mingcheng and Jiang Luoluo looked at each other, and immediately saw the business opportunity inside.

"Acheng, if we can get a good ranking this time, why don't we build a fishing tackle brand and open a factory?"

Chu Mingcheng raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect Jiang Luoluo to think about fishing tackle. He thought she would directly start a shipyard!

Of course, setting up a shipyard is not smart, but a fool.

"The idea is good, but we don't have the energy to do this at night!"

It takes hours to build a brand. The only trouble is to open a factory or find an OEM. The technology and quality in this area must meet the standards.

Even if it's not as good as Shimano or Dayiwa, it can't be far behind.

"Of course we don't have time, but my dad does! Although he still has a small business now, it's far from before, and he's also free."

"We just need to make our name known, and we don't need to worry about anything else. Let him do the production. Of course, if uncles and aunts are interested, we can come together."

Chu Mingcheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard the words: "You're just cheating Dad. Uncle was supposed to be able to retire in a few years and enjoy the blessings, but you tricked him, and he has to work for us for the rest of his life."

"Also, what can my dad do, manage the canteen in the factory?"

They are all only children, and no matter how busy their parents are, their income will eventually be theirs. If they open a factory for decades, it will be like working for them.

Jiang Luoluo also reacted, covering her mouth and chuckling: "What a great opportunity to make money, at worst they will do it for another 30 years, and we will take over when our children grow up."

Chu Mingcheng gave a thumbs up, good guy, the kid has figured it out.

Cooperate with the two of them in the Mesozoic and lie flat?
The speech on the stage was still going on, and the two also temporarily focused their attention on the stage.

Now for the real-time leaderboards.

Every time a boat comes back, the staff at the wharf will weigh and evaluate it on the spot, and the ranking will be updated immediately after the value of all catches on the boat that meet the specifications is calculated.

The fish with the highest selling price will be the champion of this tuna competition.

For this reason, the organizer also specially set up a large screen at the port, so that contestants or passers-by can know the ranking at any time.

In addition, the race APP downloaded by the contestants can check the simple information and ranking list of each boat after logging in.

Ships like Chuming City have small mobile base stations, and they can check their rankings at any time on the sea.

After several leaders finished their speeches, the host also announced new competition rewards.

Originally, there were only the top three places in the grand prize, but this time, seven places have been directly added, that is, anyone from one to ten can win the award.

The prize money for the top three has changed, No.1 has changed from 50 to 100 million, No.260 million, No.330 million, and the others remain unchanged.

Then the fourth No.5, a bonus of 20 yuan, no additional rewards.

No. 10 to No. 10, a unified [-] yuan, the above rankings have certificates and trophies, and there are no additional rewards.

There are also some small rewards for the next eleven to fifty, such as a few thousand dollars, or there may be discounts for buying and selling in the trading market, etc.

It's purely a consolation prize, and most people don't care about it.

After Chu Mingcheng listened to it, he felt that such competitions should be held more in China.

Not only limited to tuna fishing competitions, but also some island survival competitions, fishing and hunting competitions, etc.

Chu Mingcheng is not interested in surviving on an isolated island. He has no self-torture mentality. Isn't it uncomfortable to hold his sweet and soft wife every night?

But if there is also a competition in fishing and hunting, he is fully confident of winning No.1.

In fact, there are domestic mermaid competitions, but it’s just that they don’t get much attention at all. It’s a pity that the fishing and hunting competition can only go abroad for the time being.

After the host finished speaking, there was actually a performance by the girl group, which was the opening ceremony.

The pissing here in the magic capital, you know everything, and you can invite celebrities to perform on stage for anything.

As for the customs of going to sea to worship Mazu in the past, it is really not suitable for so many TV media to film.

Feudalism and superstition cannot be practiced!

After the performance, the contestants began to board the boat one after another under the leadership of the staff.

There were also some reporters who took the opportunity to interview, and the interviewees were naturally the more famous Master Deng and others.

It's nothing more than some views on the game, and whether you have the confidence to win the championship and so on.

This kind of news media is not likely to ask some tricky questions like the entertainment media.

So some internet celebrities are eager to be interviewed, but others are too lazy to answer.

Chu Mingcheng pulled Jiang Luoluo, and quickly came to the exclusive channel with Chen Yang and others, and then came to the pier to board the boat, ready for battle.

At this time, a lot of staff came and began to board the ship for inspection.

There are only three kinds of fishing rods that can be used for tuna fishing this time: boat rods, iron rods and dragging rods.

Of course, these three kinds of poles are used for normal tuna fishing.

Secondly, the electric winch cannot be used, even if it is a hand-held electric winch.

Needless to say, the large electric reel can easily catch two hundred catties of tuna.

The power of the hand-held electric winch is not so large, and it is used to assist fishermen to catch big fish.

But even so, it is much easier than a purely manual fishing reel.

Originally, two people needed to take turns to catch a fish. With a hand-held electric winch, one person could catch it, but it was still very laborious.

There was no problem on board Chu Mingcheng, and the speargun had been stored in the storage cabinet of the organizer, so the staff disembarked after the inspection and went to the next door to continue.

The inspection lasted for more than half an hour, and indeed some fishing boats found longline fishing nets and various electric winches, obviously the inspection was very strict.

Maybe there are still inspection leaks, but it doesn't matter.

Then there are patrol boats and drones. If they are checked out, they will temporarily confiscate their tools. When they are found at sea, they will be eliminated directly and banned from participating in the next fishing competition.

At exactly ten o'clock in the morning, there was a series of sharp whistles from the port. It was caused by more than 300 ships sounding their whistles almost at the same time, and it spread far away.

The tourists who came to join in the fun today covered their ears one after another, and almost lost their tinnitus.

The port staff began to dispatch, holding the walkie-talkie and shouting continuously, arranging the departure of the fishing boat.

The outermost ones set off first, and then the fishing boats obeyed the command and followed behind.

Chuming City's Poseidon was in the center, and the engine had already started to warm up. After waiting for more than ten minutes, it was his turn.

Start the Poseidon, follow the fishing boat in front, and slowly leave the port, followed by Chen Yang's Bailong.

More than 300 ships, facing the scorching sun at noon like a fleet, headed for the vast blue sea.

Tourists standing on the shore picked up mobile phones or cameras to take pictures, not to mention the fishing boats, just the 100 or so fishing boats worth millions, how could they see so many at one time in previous years.

Among them, there are more than a dozen fishing boats like Chu Mingcheng, which are larger and more gorgeous in appearance, and have attracted more attention.

Several sisters among the tourists jumped excitedly after discovering the Poseidon.

"Look, look, it's the Poseidon, and Lolo is on this ship."

"Oh, what a pity, there are too many people and I didn't see her just now, and God Chu, woo~"

"Don't mention that Chu, just kidnap our Luoluo. Luoluo often releases our pigeons because of him, and now she even comes to participate in fishing competitions without doing business. She is obviously a beautiful dancing fairy. What kind of fish!"

"After marrying Dong Yong, the seven fairies also have to weave and do housework!"

"Uh, if you can't speak, don't say it, I'm so torn!"

Obviously, these few talking were Jiang Luoluo's fans. They happened to be in Shanghai, so they organized a group to see the idol, but unfortunately they didn't meet.

at this time
"buzz buzz"

A sudden movement came, which attracted the attention of many people.

It turned out that hundreds of drones carried cameras into the sky at the same time, arranged in a neat triangular formation, followed the sailing ship all the way, and then dispersed.

Several aerial images appeared on the huge screen in the port, and they switched from time to time.

However, the shooting was only a few hundred meters away from the port, and the ones farther away were not followed. It should be because of signal problems that they could not go further.

On the other side, after driving for half an hour, but only two or three nautical miles away, Chuming City saw that it was almost noon, so they simply stopped the boat.

Seeing this, Chen Yang, who was following behind, also stopped, and called him a certain letter.

As for the radio, neither of them was turned on, it was so loud that they couldn't hear what they were saying.

If you go to a channel alone, there is a risk of being overheard when two people talk.

It's okay now, if they go to the far sea to tell each other where there are fish, if people hear it, wouldn't it be that many ships came to grab the fish?
So the two of them had agreed at dinner last night that there were mobile base stations on the ship with signals anyway, so they would contact them directly by mobile phone.

"Ah Cheng, why did you stop?"

"There are too many boats to get up to speed, let's have lunch first and set off!"

"Row"

At present, Chen Yang will follow Chu Mingcheng first, and the two sides will leave a certain distance after going to the far sea. If anyone finds tuna and there are a lot of them, he will notify the other side.

Of course, if there are few fish, you can catch them yourself.

It's going to be very loud on the public radio channel.

Many people have started to form groups, and some well-known Internet celebrities have found several fishing champions.

But more small Internet celebrities can't get to them, so they can only take the second place and find some bigwigs in the sea fishing world, who are the strong contenders for the championship of this fishing competition.

These people also received a lot of attention, which was considered to be the second echelon among the contestants.

Xiaowanghong will ask for contact information in a serious manner in the public channel. After adding the number, the tone changes suddenly.

"Brother Hai, I'm a novice, can you guide me~"

"That's right, Brother Hai, our Yoyo is very good at crafting, and we will definitely show it to you when the time comes."

How can this group of old men withstand the delicate voice of a group of female Internet celebrities?
Their economic conditions in the sea fishing industry are good, and occasionally there will be girls who have sex, but they can't stand the temptation of this group of coquettish little Internet celebrities.

Don't look at the yachts following on the sea, all of them are radio reporters.

But at night, when the lights of the fishing boat are turned off, who knows if they secretly board another boat.

The radio reporter also went up to interview when he saw someone fishing. A boat with no one fishing, interviewed a snake!
In a short period of time, these contestants formed small groups.

If you have aerial photography, you can find that there are a few Internet celebrity boats full of girls, and each of them has found a group with relatively high attention.

As for the unknown people like Yao Xin, they have long been forgotten in the corner.

Of course, she also wanted to get in touch with Chu Mingcheng and have a hug.

Just thinking of being given a big meal by someone, I silently put down the phone.

This incident was indeed Chu Mingcheng's fault, because he was so comfortable lying flat that he completely forgot about his dinner treat.

Even when he went to sea, he didn't think of Yao Xin.

In addition, compared to them who are unknown to the public, Chu Mingcheng and Jiang Luoluo actually have a good amount of attention on the Internet, belonging to the echelon below the big names in the sea fishing industry.

Fans know the news of their participation and look forward to their performance, which is why some fans at the dock talk about them.

And Jiang Luoluo is a popular UP master in the dance area, and a certain music has more fans.

But she followed her boyfriend to participate in the fishing competition without doing business. At that time, she was complained by fans and went to Xiaopozhan and the hot search of Mouyin, so the attention was still very high.

There are also small Internet celebrities in the public channel who want to catch their popularity, but they didn't turn on the radio at all, and then they were labeled as cold and arrogant.

They don't know this, and they don't care.

After Chu Mingcheng and the others had lunch, they continued to set off.

There are also a dozen or so boats scattered around, and they don't want to be crowded with others just like them.

The boat trip was very boring, but chatting and playing games, the time came to the evening quickly, and the fishing boats that had gathered together had already dispersed.

During this period of time, the first batch of fishing boats first came to fishing areas with a large number of tuna.

The small team that originally gathered began to disperse, preparing to rely on the fish finder to look for tuna or marlin, and notify nearby teammates if they found a school of fish.

Mutual assistance in groups can effectively improve performance quickly, which is very necessary in the early stage.

At least there is a great chance to break into the top [-] together.

Only [-] contestants are displayed on the screen at the port. As for the other [-] contestants, the contestants can go to the APP to check by themselves, and outside tourists or spectators cannot see it.

And after a large number of contestants in the middle and late stages withdraw from the competition, these temporary teams will disband and fight on their own, competing for a better ranking or even the championship.

When Chu Mingcheng sailed to the fishing area, he found that there were boats in many areas with deep water. He walked around, but he still didn't find any places with fish without boats.

And some retail fishermen's boats do not have fish finders, but they have rich experience in finding fish.

Whether there are fish can be judged according to factors such as wind direction, ocean current, tide, etc., so they all occupy a favorable position.

Without a fish finder, they cannot actively look for large fish such as tuna.

Therefore, we can only sit on the sidelines and try to attract tuna by throwing bait, and we can also use fish lure lights to attract them at night.

In this way, if you are lucky, you will not catch fewer fish than those with fish finders, and the cost will be lower.

On the other side, Chu Mingcheng, who couldn't find a suitable location after wandering around for a long time, was somewhat speechless. The sea was so vast, but it was the first time he felt the situation of the boat being crowded.

His plug-in can't take the initiative to find fish, and he really has no advantage in this regard.

After a while, he found a bay not far ahead.

This kind of place has a good terrain, and there is a great possibility of tuna appearing.

However, there are three faster boats ahead on the right, and they are about to reach the bay over there.Among them are two fishing boats and one fishing boat.

Jiang Luoluo hugged Xiao Heiye, stood beside him and sighed, "There are too many people grabbing a good place!"

"I guess I'm going to scold!" Chu Mingcheng felt a little sorry, he could only watch the fun, so he turned on the radio silently.

Sure enough, the confrontation inside began.

"We found it here first, and you can find other places."

"The board gives priority to whether you want it or not, and if you don't want it, don't beep."

"You discovered it first? I came here a week ago, and it's not your turn."

"Damn, are you finding fault?"

"wcnmlgb, don't be ashamed, you little redheads. When labor and capital go to sea, you are still separated from left and right. Parents may not know each other. Mother Throwing Lei, little bastard, let labor and capital go."

The old fishermen on the fishing boats are more violent when they take turns cursing. These old oilmen have never met anything at sea, and they often scold each other for places.

No, for the next 2 minutes, the radio is full of voices from fishing boats, men and women scolding together, without repeating a single sentence, there are languages ​​in various parts of the country, and they are novel and not old-fashioned, only a few foreign languages up.

It's hard to imagine that these words were scolded by people in their 50s, but now people in their [-]s and [-]s are also advancing with the times!

This time, not only the people on the two fishing boats were dumbfounded, but also Jiang Luoluo, who was walking the dog next to him, was dumbfounded.

After a while, after Chu Mingcheng turned off the radio, she came back to her senses: "Ah Cheng, what is the separation of left and right?"

"Maybe, at that time, half of it was in his mother's stomach, and the other half was still in his father's, right? Didn't they say that their parents didn't know each other at that time." Chu Mingcheng was a little uncertain.

"." Jiang Luoluo faltered, "Let's go, let's not join in the fun!"

After they left, Chen Yang, who had separated from them when they came to the fishing area, sent a message.

"Acheng, have you noticed that all the fish on my side are boats?"

"Me too, why not go to another fishing area!"

Chu Mingcheng had no choice but to make a new decision. It would be great if his plug-in had a search function, and it would be displayed on the map by typing in any fish.

It shows where there are tuna or marlin, and he just drives there.

But this is no different from cheating, and it will lead to no suspense in the game.

So he just thought about it, even if there is such a hook, then he will definitely use it~~
Chu Mingcheng made some observations on the navigation, and decided to go to the border of the East China Sea, which is close to the open sea.

The probability of encountering tuna there is also very high, and it is estimated that a small number of players will also choose these places.

It's a pity that the rules of the competition can't go to the high seas, which can be regarded as a restriction on fishing boats like them, and try to ensure fairness.

After all, the fish resources in the high seas are better, and the probability of winning is far higher than those who fish in the fishing area.
After choosing a place, he sent the coordinates to Chen Yang, and he turned the direction of the Poseidon and left the fishing area.
