Chapter 1037: A New Plan—The Indoor Black Pit Fishing Tournament



After greeting everyone, Yue Feng straightforwardly refused further requests for photos, holding a large fish with one arm, and diligently helping it maintain a normal swimming posture on the water.

Once it was quiet again, the Big Qing gradually stabilized. Yue Feng kept splashing water over its gills to increase the dissolved oxygen in the water, waiting for the fish to regain its strength.

This process was quite lengthy. After all, it took several hours of struggle to subdue the fish, but Yue Feng was very focused while oxygenating the fish — he looked so meticulous that he left many spectators watching in awe.

"Isn't that enough? Why so serious?" Brother Wen couldn't stand watching anymore and whispered to Yue Feng from the side.

Yue Feng was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, and when he looked at Brother Wen again, his eyes carried a complex emotion.

Under the strange gaze, Brother Wen hurriedly corrected himself: "I mean, if you're tired, I can lend you a hand!"

"No need, the fish's fins are starting to move. It should regain part of its strength soon!

It's not easy for a wild fish to grow this big. We are anglers, not cold-blooded killers! The thrill of the fishing battle is enough; we shouldn't take the fish's life!

Coincidentally, I'll take this rare opportunity to play the part of a big shot and say a few words from the heart. I hope this part won't be cut from the footage!

The freshwater fish resources in our country have shown an obvious decline in recent years. Various malicious acts like netting and electric fishing are devouring the already scarce fish resources, making it increasingly difficult to fish in our rivers!

For the sake of our descendants having fish to catch in the future, so we won't be confined to fishing only in Black Pits, I make this appeal here!

If you're lucky enough to encounter a good fishing scene and don't plan to eat the fish you've caught, please, after enjoying the fun of fishing, spare them! Release them back to their natural habitat to breed and thrive!"

The crowd, which was originally a lively scene with people laughing and chatting, fell silent after Yue Feng publicly made these remarks!

No one knew who started it, but soon the crowd erupted into thunderous applause.

"Well said! This is the true consciousness of a fisherman! We enjoy the process, and shouldn't solely pursue the final catch!"

"Learn from Teacher Yue Feng! From now on, I'll release all the fish I catch unconditionally!"

"I'll release them too!"

Because of Yue Feng's words, a seed of protecting fish resources started to germinate in the hearts of many fishermen and gradually grew into a towering tree over time!

...

About ten minutes later, the Big Qing, which had been held in arms all along, finally recovered, gently wagging its tail.

Sensing this, Yue Feng let go of his arm and allowed the fish to swim away from his embrace. Under the gaze of everyone present, this fish, over one and a half meters long with an unknown weight, quickly swam towards the distance and disappeared from the surface of the water.

"Oh! Mission accomplished! Going ashore!" Yue Feng watched the Big Qing leave and took a deep breath, quickly heading ashore!

When reeling in and holding onto the fish, he didn't feel tired, but as soon as he relaxed, Yue Feng instantly felt sore all over, discomfort spreading throughout.

Once ashore, he went to the car to change out of his wet clothes into a spare set, and exhaustion thoroughly hit him, causing him to shiver.

After putting on his clothes and warming up his hands and feet through some activity, the crowd that had been watching mostly dispersed.

At this time, Wa Wa came over to Yue Feng with his hands clasped behind his back.

"Fengfeng, I found something good!"

"What? A wallet?" Yue Feng asked casually.

"Look! A fish scale; it was washed ashore by the water just now. It's probably from that fish we just saw!" Wa Wa revealed a treasure with a hand, showing off a large scale over ten centimeters in diameter.

"Wow, it really is a scale from the fish just now! We spared its life, and it gives us a scale in return; that's reasonable. Since you found it, keep it well. Next time someone boasts about catching a big fish, you can take this scale out and say your husband caught it at Old Turtle Lake!"

...

The landing of this hundred-pound giant fish brought Yue Feng's originally planned at least a week-long fishing session, to an early end. But the influence it generated set off a new wave in the fishing community.

That afternoon, the news that Special Level Competitive Fishing Master, Fishing King champion Yue Feng had caught a Big Qing over one and a half meters long and weighing over a hundred pounds at Old Turtle Lake, exploded in the fishing community.

Countless fishing enthusiasts either recorded on-the-spot or shared others' videos, uploading the process of hooking, reeling, and releasing the fish online.

Especially the words Yue Feng said during the release; only those with a bit of decency didn't cut it out, making it another memorable moment full of discussion for Yue Feng.

After a night of fervor, the next day, not only did it spread online, but traditional media also sensed its popularity and began to contact and find Yue Feng in various ways.

This was free publicity, and Yue Feng embraced it. He received interviews from many media outlets throughout the day, and several regional news programs aired stories of the hundred-pound fish catch and its release.

On the third day, Yue Feng, upon awakening, realized he was trending!

News spread nationwide that a renowned angler, Fishing King Yue Feng, had caught and released a hundred-pound Big Qing at Old Turtle Lake, making a public call to protect fishing resources so future generations can continue to fish, content eagerly covered and shared by numerous media outlets.

Back to looking at Yue Feng, after completing the mission of catching the Big Qing, the filming crew finished some supplementary shots at the fishing site, while Yue Feng and Wa Wa indulged in eating, drinking, and having fun in this unfamiliar city.

A few days later, everything job-related was thoroughly settled, Yue Feng took leave of Brother Wen and returned with many team members to W City!

This big fish-catching trip seemed like it only rode the trend and grabbed some big traffic for footage, but for Yue Feng himself, it made him realize the path he should take next.

Since he has reached this position in the circle, he must undertake the responsibilities that come with it. On a smaller scale, it means growing and strengthening his brand, and on a larger scale, promoting the development of the domestic fishing sport became something Yue Feng began to contemplate.

Monday, Yuefeng Fishing Tackle Company meeting room!

Yue Feng sat in the prime spot, dressed in formal attire, looking very sharp and capable.

"As the temperature decreases, the company's business is soon transitioning from the gold season to off-season. Here, I have a new idea that requires everyone to start preparing for in the coming days and come up with a plan in a short time!

After discussing with Mr. Liu, the first thing is, we've decided to start preparing to hold a National Indoor Black Pit Competition this winter!

Aiming to utilize the off-season to elevate the brand's visibility to a higher level! Since there's no existing event to reference, the new competition rules, venues, various emergency plans, all require collective effort and insight!

The second thing, starting from next March, the company will sponsor an outdoor Zhonghua Fishing Competition! All relevant connection work and preparations also need to be ready during the relatively leisure winter season! Does everyone understand?"
