Chapter Twenty-Five: The Champion Who Got His Wish
Finally rushed to the final stage, and the excited three rushed to the competition venue the next day in good spirits after a good night's sleep.
After some inspection and preparation as usual, they smoothly entered the contestant preparation area, talking and laughing and waiting for the start time to come.
After the host read the speech in a rambling speech, he finally began to let the referees start to prepare, and accompanied the staff to lead the teams that reached the top 16 to enter the pre-drawn fishing positions.
The basic process of the knockout round that started today is similar to that of the sub-station competition, except that the time has been extended a little, becoming a 45-minute game, and each player will fish for 15 minutes.
Seeing that a total of eight opponents were ready for succession, the referee signaled the first player in each group to walk to the fishing position and blew the whistle to signal the start of the game.
Yang Zi, who was the first to appear, heard this, skillfully sat on the fishing chair, picked up the rod, and quickly drew a few rod nests, and then looked at the fish in the water, quietly waiting for the first fish to be hooked today.
It didn't take too long, and as the fish float shook slightly, it immediately picked up a big black drift. Seeing this, Yang Zi, who was guarding the signal, hurriedly lifted the fishing rod is stab, and the fish that hurt in the water was pulled directly to the shore by him before he had time to struggle a few times.
This is a crucian carp weighing nearly half a catty, although no matter how big it is, it can only be counted as a tail, but it is also very gratifying. Yang Zi happily took off the fish and put it in the fish guard, and continued to look forward to the next harvest.
Due to the addition of a shopping mall bait to the male bait, he was obviously much more frequent than his opponent on the side today. By the fifteen minutes of the first stage, the catch was twice as fast as the opponent's.
The grinning Yang Zi also ignored the opponent who looked at him with a dark face on the side, and just after exchanging a few words with the money that came up to exchange for fishing, he sat back on the side of the preparation table.
With his preheated fish nest and fishing position, the difficulty of Qian Gang's fishing was naturally greatly reduced, and he carefully maintained an unhurried rhythm to maintain the advantage all the way to Uncle Cui's hands.
As the oldest veteran among them, Uncle Cui did not disappoint the two, and his steady performance did not give their opponents a chance to turn the tables, and maintained their advantages all the way to the next semi-finals.
Having won the first race without incident, the confident trio celebrated and then returned to the preparation area for a short rest.
Their fishing sequence has proven to work, so it's just a matter of waiting for everyone to draw a new round and continue to prepare for the tournament. A few people laughed relaxedly, and there was no solemnity at all.
The next semi-finals and semi-finals are basically a remake of the previous one, and their opponents have tried their best to stop the progress of the three.
Especially Yang Zi, every time he played, he suppressed the opponent's momentum with a huge advantage. So that they who are eager to overtake can't calm down and fish, and can only be eliminated with regrets.
Although this made Yang Zi feel a little invincible, after all, he won the game under the condition of cheating with the system, but for the sake of a happy life in the future, this little bit of shame can only be put aside with the festival.
After taking a rest, he and Qian Gang had a happy Chinese meal, and then quietly waited for the final in the preparation area.
The first match of the afternoon was the battle for third place, and the two teams that lost in the semi-finals saw that they had no hope of winning the championship and runner-up, and then shifted their goals to the prize money and reputation of third place.
The two sides who had no other worries competed very much, and the excitement was much better than the previous games.
In the end, the victorious side cheered, and the losing side did not secretly feel sad. Because the fourth place also has a certain reward, it's just the number of them.
With the end of the third-place match, the last two teams also entered the preparation area next to the fishing spot and began to compete for the top honor of the competition.
This not only represents a generous bonus, but also a lot of fame and interest.
For Yang Zi, only if they win this game smoothly, the goals and itinerary they have set will not be disrupted and restarted.
And the gold content of the championship of this kind of large-scale national competition is not low, and what those merchants are willing to pay for this title will be very exciting.
The three of them walked to the fishing spot and said hello to the players on the opposite side, and the atmosphere that had just cooled down began to gradually become tense again.
After the referee finished the final inspection, he signaled the first player on the field on both sides to walk to the fishing spot to prepare, and then looked at the chronograph in his hand and blew the whistle for the start of the game.
Although the rules of the finals have changed from the previous ones, they generally did not have a great impact on Yang Zi and them.
Except for Qian Gang, who needs to refuel, the other two can maintain an advantage in front of each other, after all, they have more than 20% more chance of being hit.
As Yang Zi hung up the bait and quickly finished pumping the nest, he began to fish for the last ten fish that belonged to him in this competition.
The fish in this fish pond seems to be a lot worse than the ones they have caught before, and it may be that the organizers feel that as the last and most important game, since they have chosen this method of calculating the results of the mantissa win, in order to avoid ending the game too quickly, they have changed to a fish pond with less fish density.
However, this can be said to be an advantage for Yang Zi and them, as a small crucian carp was brought ashore, Yang Zi caught the first catch of the competition.
And the next two and three are basically pulled into the fish guard by him in the rhythm of the rod, and the players next door have not yet opened.
It wasn't until the ten fish on his side were full that the other party pulled up his third catch, and the huge gap made people speechless.
Fortunately, he was also an old angler over there, and although he was led by a huge margin, he was not disturbed by his rhythm. Still unhurried, it seems that the outcome of victory and defeat is not so important to him.
After catching his ten fish, Yang Zi made a player exchange with Qian Gang, told him not to be too nervous, and then sat down next to him and began to quietly watch the other party's performance.
Seeing that he had so many advantages on his side, Qian Gang was not too anxious. Although the results were slowly caught up by the other party, he still completed his task relatively smoothly after making a few mistakes with normal performance.
Qian Gang, who returned to his seat after swapping places with Uncle Cui, had a lot of sweat on his forehead, and it seemed that the process just now was not as calm as he seemed on the surface.
At this time, their results were still about two ahead of each other, and Uncle Cui, who had raised his spirit, seemed to have sufficient momentum under the temptation of the upcoming championship, and he caught three crucian carp one after another in a short time after the opening, and instantly expanded his advantage a lot.
Seeing that his side was getting farther and farther away from the championship, the last player on the other side simply didn't pay attention to Yang Zi and them. He watched the fish float in front of him intently, hoping that he could create a miracle.
It's a pity that the result of the game was finally a foregone conclusion after Uncle Cui brought up his tenth fish, and Yang Zi and the three of them got their wish to defeat their opponents and win the championship of this game.
The happy crowd clapped and hugged each other in celebration, and then walked to the side and shook hands with their opponents.
Yang Zi, who was in a good mood, was left behind by several sponsor representatives after dealing with a group of reporters, but he didn't have the heart to talk about this, so he had to make an appointment with them, and then packed up his things with Qian Gang and returned to the rest area to prepare for the next award ceremony.
To win the championship of this game, the happiest person is Uncle Cui.
Not only did he get a lot of bonuses, but he also won such a high honor for himself and the association, and now he walks happily, and his eyes are smiling all the time and he can't open them.
As the organizer prepared a little backstage, the host stood on the podium and began to make a speech before the award, and Yang Zi also pulled Qian Gang, who was talking to Lao Wang and them on the phone, aside to calm him down.
After winning the championship, this product was so proud that he called a few of his old friends one by one and kept chattering, or he didn't know how long he would have to show off.
The three of them waited for a small meeting and then were called to the podium, and the leader in charge of awarding them smiled and handed over the prize money and trophy in his hand to them, and then everyone got together and let the reporters take a few group photos.
Everyone happily received the reward in the cheers and celebrations, and then took a lot of group photos before returning to the stage and happily waiting for the final curtain call of the game.
Yang Zi saw that there was nothing to do, and he also made a phone call to Qiaoqiao, who was filming another game in Sichuan, and after the two chatted happily, he began to think about the signing and negotiation of the meeting.
In fact, there is not much to talk about, he has already given his intentions to those in charge in general, and then it depends on their respective sincerity.
After signing the contract, they will shoot a few sets of advertisements for each other, and then participate in a few competitions on behalf of their manufacturers every year, so they don't have to be bound by anything.
Of course, if you need to go abroad in the future, you can also negotiate with the other party, and by the way, it is also okay to record a documentary, and they will not refuse this kind of win-win thing.
Imagining the picture of himself and Qiaoqiao playing freely around the world in the future, Yang Zi's face couldn't help but show full of happiness, and this championship made him a small step closer to his ideal life.
