Zhang Yang touched his nose with a modest look on his face and said, "You can't really bla for this! I definitely gave him all the face I should've. He insisted on playing tricks on —well, I'm not so parent who spoils their kid."
"On our own turf, you think I'm gonna let him walk all over ?"
That line was really domineering. In this mont, Zhang Yang's aura as the real helmsman finally started to show.
"Fine, you're the most badass! You handled this beautifully!
Right, about the donation—how are we doing it later? Announce it on the spot? Or wait until the carnival is over?"
Liu Xingyun kept asking about the donation of the prize money.
With the carnival run to this point today, aside from the small issue of Liu Wenjun landing in the hospital, you really couldn't pick out any other flaws. Zhang Yang and Old Zhao, leading the company team, had put together an event that was downright high-end and grand.
Zhang Yang answered without hesitation, "I'll announce it on stage when I go up to get the award! The longer the night drags on, the more dreams you get!
After all, I also promised our platform this beforehand. Put our personal relationship aside—whatever we decided for business, we carry out exactly that!"
Hearing this, Liu Xingyun gave Zhang Yang a big thumbs-up.
What's called real friendship? This is real friendship.
Where do you get your judgnt of whether soone's reliable?
Not from nice-sounding words, but from actual interaction and working together, that's how you can judge accurately.
Without a doubt, in Liu Xingyun's eyes, Zhang Yang, who does what he says, was the most reliable one. Their personal friendship, thanks to this experience of planning the carnival together, leveled up again.
...
While Zhang Yang and Liu Xingyun were killing ti chatting in the office, waiting for the results to be announced, sowhere else, Third-level Competitive Fishing Master Li Jun, who had been invited to compete, was hiding in his car taking a phone call.
"Hello, bro! You were looking for ?" Li Jun picked up, sounding very respectful.
"Where are you now? Find sowhere convenient to talk, I need to remind you about a couple things!"
"I saw your number and ca to my own car. Just say it, I'm listening!"
"Xiao Jun, my friend over here just told the consolidated results!
Putting all the scores together, the champion of this carnival is Zhang Yang. He's got both titles in his hands right now. One is the overall champion with a one-million prize, and the other is the single biggest-fish-weight champion with a hundred-thousand prize!
Next, I need you to step out and take the lead on sothing for ..."
After the man on the phone finished going over the tallied results, he started explaining in detail what he wanted Li Jun to do, nagging on for quite a while before the two finally hung up.
"Got it, bro! I understand everything. I'll go set it up right away! I'll handle this!" Li Jun agreed solemnly.
After getting out of the car, Li Jun quickly found a few friends he knew well and trusted, and they huddled together, whispering.
...
Very soon, the scoring was finished. The detailed results, printed on A4 paper, were posted on the bulletin board.
A bunch of strears and anglers had been waiting. As soon as they saw the list go up, they sward over in a rush.
"Holy shit, badass! Zhang Yang got one penalty point in both rounds, first in total number of fish, first in total weight, and he also took the record for the heaviest single fish! That's a full-on Grand Slam!"
"He really is badass. A while back, at the Fishing King Cup qualifiers in Dongshan Province, this guy pulled off a miracle of one penalty point across eight rounds. Everyone in our local circle was talking about it!"
"A million in prize money, man, that's drool-worthy! That's basically a whole apartnt!"
"The kids on their team fished pretty damn well too!
Look at the top of the rankings: third place, ng Fan; eighth place, Wang Dazhi—they're all anglers from Zhang Yang Company!
Oh, and fifth place, Han Mocheng. This guy used to be the main spearhead of Northwestern Wolves, and now he's signed with Mingyang Tianxia Company too!"
...
The circle is only so big, and Zhang Yang's brothers on the team perford so well, it was impossible for people not to notice.
Sure enough, once the results ca out, so knowledgeable anglers imdiately started explaining things to the others. And to be fair, their comnts were pretty objective—they knew Zhang Yang's team very well.
A bunch of people chatted around the results list for a while, and soon the athletes' march music started playing from the main stage.
A few minutes later, the two beauties, Xiao Wei and YOYO, ca out side by side in formal dresses.
"Attention, all competing athletes. Next, we will hold the closing ceremony and the award ceremony for this Kuaishou Fishing Carnival. All anglers, please assemble in the viewing area in front of the main stage!!"
YOYO used her standard announcer voice to call twice, and the anglers below the stage quickly walked over to the viewing area.
This viewing area was the sa spot where they had the bonfire party last night. All the tables and chairs were still set up. The anglers could sit wherever they wanted, sit under the sun umbrellas and in the deck chairs to watch the ceremony, with all kinds of drinks available freely. This level of hospitality beat the usual local national tournants by a long shot.
Seeing that the athletes had basically all gathered, YOYO gave Xiao Wei a look.
Xiao Wei took a step forward with the microphone and started speaking, "Thank you very much to all the athletes and accompanying staff down there for your strong cooperation!
Two days of carnival isn't long, but everyone showed their style and their skills! On behalf of the organizers of this event, I'd like to extend our sincerest thanks and highest respect to all of you!
Next, please welco Mr. Wen Zhaojun, the Executive Deputy Mayor of W City in charge of culture and sports, to deliver the closing speech!!"
