Livestreaming the Hunt

Why is he here?

Then Wang Kui changed his mind and realized that Pavimo was a hunter in the ESCI North America division and had seen him on the peak hunting points list before.

This Pavimo seems to be doing well in the United States, and he is always surrounded by many sycophants.

But a considerable number of hunters sneered at him. Not to mention Pavimo's illegal and indiscriminate killing of protected animals. Even the lions and Mongolian argali he killed were all with the help of hunting guides who paid for them, not on his own. strength.

【It turns out to be this guy! 】

[Did he also come to compete? 】

[Can such a scum who violates the law participate in the competition? 】

[Lao Kui, you must beat him in the competition! 】

…

When Wang Kui said the name "Pavimo" to the audience, the live broadcast room immediately exploded. Many people have long been concerned about this kind of behavior of killing rare animals indiscriminately in order to satisfy selfish desires due to their own wealth. I feel disgusted. If this kind of people hadn't been providing money behind the scenes, there wouldn't have been so many poachers, and many precious animals would probably not have become extinct.

"I have heard of this man before. This kind of indiscriminate killing of protected animals will be severely punished by law in Japan. I really don't know what method he used to escape the conviction of the crime!"

There are fewer wild animals in Japan, and the protection and hunting models are relatively mature, and poaching is relatively rare, so Oda Nagama does not understand Midorino's tricks.

While the two were chatting about Pavimo.

When he was raising the ground, the other party suddenly turned around and glanced at Wang Kui. Someone around him should have reminded him.

Wang Kui was slightly surprised when he saw the other party, and then he looked at him with some hostility and teasing. He couldn't help but feel a shiver in his heart. Does he know me?

And...it seems to be hostile to me!

Has this guy watched my live broadcast? Although he did say bad things about Pavimo on the live broadcast.

Probably because of different stances.

The outside world has always believed that Wang Kui is on the opposite side of poachers. It is normal for people like Pavimo who engage in illegal poaching to be hostile to him.

After a while, accompanied by the exciting electronic music, the crowd around the lake gathered more and more. You could see many young American men and women swaying to the music. All of them had good figures and good looks, and many people were lifting up around them at the same time. There was a super large transparent bathtub with all kinds of fish for everyone to play with. Some people even took off their clothes and jumped into the bathtub wearing swimsuits to catch fish with their bare hands. They had a great time and it felt like a beach party on a yacht.

These people are probably here for the ESCI North American Fishing King Competition. Outdoor fishing is a very popular sport in North America, and there are many fans who follow such events. For example, the FLW World Outdoor Fishing Competition, the champion of each competition He may even become a household name as an outdoor star.

However, FLW only focuses on bass fishing, and big fish tournaments like this freshwater monster level are very rare.

However, this competition is only open to ESCI club members, so no matter how good some professional fishermen are, they cannot sign up to participate. To a certain extent, this is considered protection.

After all, they are professional fishing all year round, unlike general hunters like them.

With the Discovery Channel host taking the stage, the opening ceremony of the competition finally began.

The first person invited was the North American Division President of ESCI. After a series of pleasantries, he began to talk about the background of this game. It was the same as Wang Kui’s previous analysis and search. It was mainly the fight between big fish caused by species invasion that destroyed the Mississippi. Water system ecology in the lower reaches of the river.

Therefore, this North American Fishing King Competition is a very special one.

In the past, this kind of big fish was protected by the American Zoological Association and fishing was prohibited. Now it can be used as a competition target and everyone can enjoy fishing at once. It is very rare. It is estimated that it will be difficult to have such a grand event with government participation in the future. , which is also the main reason why many professional fishermen who are not ESCI members are greedy.

There is no angler who will not be tempted by catching big fish!

Subsequently, several more guest judges came on stage, including the forum management of ESCI and experts from the International Fishing Association, who introduced the competition rules of this competition.

1. Equipment restrictions: Special means such as large trawls, chemical poisoning, explosions, and sonic shocks are not allowed for fishing. Only conventional bait is allowed. All equipment is brought at one time and cannot be replenished midway. The size of fishing boats is limited to 10 meters, and Replenishing fuel is limited to one time.

2. Personnel restrictions: Each participating guest can bring at most one boat operator or co-fisherman.

3. Time limit: The entry time starts from 12:00 today, and the time limit is four days. The first two days are promotion rounds.

5. Regional restrictions: The competition area starts from Tleila Lake on the Arkansas River and ends southeastly at the Mississippi River Delta.

4.

If the single tail length exceeds 78 inches, the weight will be counted as 1.2 times, if the length exceeds 98 inches, it will be counted as 1.5 times, and if the length of the single tail exceeds 118 inches, it will be counted as 2 times. .

Event rewards:

The contestant who wins the championship will win a huge sum of US$500,000 and promotional resources worth US$200,000 from the Discovery Channel, and will also receive 800 peak competition points.

Damn it!

$500,000! More than 3 million soft girl coins!

The audience watched the machine translation in the background and couldn't help but get excited.

【Good guy! You don’t have to do anything for a year, just winning this competition is worth it! 】

【understood! I’ll start dropping out of school and learning fishing tomorrow! 】

[Wake up, there are masters here, do you think you can win? Lao Kui is probably quite choked! 】

[I feel like the design of this game is so interesting. It’s a bit like a fishing game. It’s interesting to think about more than 80 boats traveling in the river and fishing like crazy! 】

[Ubisoft, have you seen it? Why don't you hurry up and make it? 】

…

"Okay, now all contestants are asked to pass the security check, log in to the fishing racing boat, and prepare!"

After hearing the host's words, many contestants walked to the security checkpoint at the edge of the lake with their equipment.

The security check process is similar to that when boarding a plane. Even shoes need to be taken off. It is relatively strict to prevent the hiding of poisons. Although the government hates these monster fish, poisoning will also poison those freshwater creatures that are already threatened.

After some inspection.

Wang Kui and Oda Nagama successfully arrived near a fishing boat on the east side of the lake.

That's right.

It was the Italian luxury outdoor yacht brand that contacted him: Sesa!

The yacht in front of you is about 8.68 meters long and 3.3 meters wide. It weighs just over three tons. It is equipped with a 590-horsepower 440-kilowatt-hour Yamaha yacht engine. The maximum speed can reach 41 knots. It is close to the entry-level speedboat level. It is considered Very fast.

The driving position is in the middle of the boat and forward, which is convenient for front and rear fishing. The rear deck can also be opened to contain two independent huge oxygen chambers for convenient storage of fish.

The main body of the entire boat is gunmetal gray, like carbon fiber, with various lemon yellow letters and patterns painted on it, giving it a sporty look.

[Lao Kui’s boat is so handsome! 】

[But it doesn’t seem to be as luxurious as Lao Kui’s own yacht! 】

[This is a professional competitive fishing boat, not for your enjoyment. The old Quina boat is a business yacht! 】

[The limit is 10 meters, probably because some lakes and swamps are shallow and can easily get stranded! 】

…

After Wang Kui got on the boat, he threw the equipment on the deck. Oda Nagama also cooperated very well. The two quickly checked the boat and confirmed that there were no problems before notifying the competition staff.

After seeing that all the participating guests are ready.

The host then roared with a passionate voice: "Okay! All contestants are ready! Next, the 2022 ESCI National Fishing King Competition! Now - start!!"

Buzz!

As soon as he finished speaking, the next second, all the yachts around the lake were set on fire, and the roar of various diesel and gasoline engines could be heard. For a moment, the blood of the surrounding audience was boiling with excitement!

Wow!

At this time, as the first yacht moved away from the shore, the other contestants were afraid that they would fall behind and be occupied by others in the favorable fishing area, so they pulled the throttle lever full and followed.

Ta-ta-ta-ta!

At this time, there was a sound of helicopter propellers in the sky. It turned out to be a helicopter. The door was open. A photographer was driving a huge video camera to take aerial shots.

compare to.

The drone controlled by Zhao Zhongheng was slightly inferior, but after all, it was a TV station. It not only had to broadcast live broadcasts, but also produced programs. Wang Kui could use hundreds of thousands of movie-level eight-axis drones, which was already considered very impressive. Awesome.

From a high-altitude bird's-eye view, the audience saw colorful yachts, like big fish, drawing triangular currents and driving on the lake. With the exciting stage music and the shouts of the surrounding audience, they couldn't help but People's blood boils!

The scene switches to the recorder on Wang Kui.

At this time, Oda Nagama was already in the driving position. She was wearing a light blue outdoor long-sleeved T-shirt, a pair of black nylon sports trousers, and a white sunshade hat. She was fiddling with the rudder with one hand and lying on her stomach with the other. Throttle lever, don't tell me it's really like that!

"drop!"

At this time, a beep sounded on Wang Kui's ship.

I turned around and saw that it was coming from a device mounted on the railing of the boat. This device was a camera. It was supposed to be used by the Discovery Channel to film each contestant individually. It was also used to prevent cheating. A prompt sounded. It should mean that you are being photographed at this time.

It is estimated that by this time, Wang Kui's live broadcast has appeared on the Discovery Channel's media website.

Although Discovery Channel does not force contestants to interact with the camera, Wang Kui still said hello to the camera in order to show respect.

Subsequently.

He took out his mobile phone and logged into the ESCI software. There was an activity area for the North American Fishing King Competition. After he entered, the system showed him as a participating guest and was matching him with opponents.

A few seconds later, an avatar appeared, that of a black player named Ruiz.

"It seems that our first opponent is him."

Wang Kui looked at the players. No matter their names or appearance, he had no impression of them. They were probably not powerful people, so he took back his phone and continued to play with the equipment.

In order to participate in this competition, he bought four fishing rods, two thick rods and two thin rods, one set for main fishing and one set for backup.

Among them, thick rods are used to catch big fish, and thin rods are used to catch small fish.

[I don’t understand, why don’t they all use thin poles? 】

[Yes, if a thin rod catches a big fish, isn’t it easy to break? 】

[It is forbidden to replenish equipment midway through the competition. Lao Kui, you should bring a few more! 】

…

Looking at the questions in the live broadcast room, Wang Kui smiled and waved his hands: "River fishing is different from sea fishing. There are big fish and small fish, which must be matched with special fishing rods. The skills here are very high."

"Because sea fishing boats are large and marine life is generally large, thick sea rods can be used. However, this thick rod has a disadvantage, that is, the rod is heavy and hard, and the overall sensitivity and accuracy are very low, making it difficult to sense whether the fish is Fishing for long periods of time is very physically demanding if you bite the hook.”

As he spoke, he opened his thin black rod and shook it a few times before the rod began to shake. This also meant that Wang Kui would be the first to notice any slight movement under the water. Time is perceived through the bending and vibration of the rod body!

“Because of this, there is also a chain of contempt in the fishing circle. Sea fishing despises freshwater fishing because it is difficult for the latter to catch big fish, but freshwater hand poles also despise sea fishing because the latter has no skills and only needs to be moved to the stern of the boat. Just put it and keep throwing bait!"

The audience thought about it and realized that it was indeed the case.

The last time Lao Kui went fishing in Somalia with Jiang Chen, he put the sea pole at the stern of the boat and only waited for the fish to take the bait before taking action.

Some experienced players in the live broadcast room also proved that freshwater fishing skills are more operable, so many fishing competitions are basically freshwater fishing, which is more enjoyable to watch.

Especially in competitive fishing, fishermen have a very high hook rate. Unlike sea fishing, they often fail to catch a big fish for half a day, or even for several consecutive days.

After explaining to the audience, Wang Kui began to assemble the fishing rod.

He said: "Our strategy is very simple, first use bait to catch small fish, and then use small fish as bait to catch big fish, because now is the period when big fish are flooding, and the big fish underwater do not know that there are a large number of humans ready to catch them. , so I call this period the bonus period. Basically, as long as you are not in the wrong water area, you can catch big fish.”

Only then did the audience realize that these artificial baits were not prepared for big fish, but for small fish.

According to Lao Kui's explanation, because big fish are used to swallowing live animals, especially top predators such as crocodile gar and sharks, which are basically very ferocious aquatic creatures that like to fight, it is difficult for them to be sensitive to artificial bait. Of interest, only local aquatic fish are their main targets.

and.

Most of these big fish live in rapids and relatively deep water levels, and the bait is easily washed away in these environments.
