"Looks like I really need to buy a fishing boat, he can't really be a champion, damn Paul, he cheated on me!" After listening to Daniels's words, the host's face immediately collapsed, and he pulled his hair with remorse.

The next day's race ended on time, but a TV footage was shown at today's tournament press conference showing Hong Tao fishing, and that fish was the last giant bass to catch. Now that it has been released, the referee weighed it carefully and sent a fishing boat to put it back into the water.

These Yankees were afraid that the fish would not adapt to other waters, so they deliberately sent it back to their hometown, and as for whether it would still live in that sad place, Hong Tao estimated that it was very likely. Because the brain of an animal like a fish is small, just like the hard disk and memory of the computer we humans use, it can't remember much. According to some scientific studies, some fish have memories of only a few seconds or tens of seconds, and most of them rely on instinct to live, rather than relying on the brain's memory.

After two days of preliminaries, Hong Tao ranked first in the professional class with a score of 52 pounds and 15 ounces, more than 15 pounds ahead of the second place. Hong Tao is now the favourite to win the tournament, as the result is calculated from the total result of the four days of competition.

Unless Hong Tao's performance is seriously out of order in the last two days or someone plays more against the sky than Hong Tao, the 15-pound lead weight alone is enough to leave all competitors helpless.

In fact, the happiest person was not Hong Tao or Erin, but the manager of the hotel restaurant where they stayed, the guy who invited them to eat lobster for free and gave them fast food at noon every day. If Hong Tao can't win 100% of the championship, he will definitely believe it, and if Hong Tao can't even get the top ten, not only he doesn't believe it. I guess no one can believe it.

Therefore, his initial investment has recovered the cost, and there is a high probability that the task will be overcompleted, so that night, Hong Tao and Erin not only did not have to spend money on dinner, but also drank a bottle of American wine for nothing.

"Surely this bottle of wine wasn't drunk for nothing, was it? You tell me what you want to do, and then I decide whether to drink it or not. Hong Tao has a long memory this time, and he resolutely doesn't dare to ask for other people's things for no reason, and he must make it clear first.

"This is a little bit of our restaurant's heart, there are no requirements......" The restaurant manager made Hong Tao a little embarrassed, rubbing his hands and said.

"And then?" Hong Tao didn't believe that a restaurant manager would be embarrassed. Keep asking.

"Well, if you and your wife can come to our hotel for a few days a year, our hotel can provide the best room and related services for both of you for free." The restaurant manager finally made his request, and this time it wasn't their restaurant's business, it was the whole hotel.

"I can't do this business, I personally like your restaurant and I like this hotel, but I'm not American, I'm here to visit my wife in New York. So I can't guarantee to come to the U.S. every year, and I can't guarantee that I'll be able to come to Florida when I come to the U.S. Hong Tao didn't even think about it, so he rejected this condition, which may be considered a poor beauty in the eyes of Americans. How nice it is to come here for a few days every year on vacation and don't have any money. But for myself, it has become a chore. I really can't get it.

"Alas...... It would be nice if he was an airline, and I wouldn't have to buy a plane ticket to come to the United States from China. After the restaurant manager left, Hong Tao said to Erin with pity.

"You reminded me of that. There are airlines in Florida as well, and when you win the championship, I'll put you in touch and maybe get that kind of sponsorship. Instead of laughing at Hong Tao's insatiable greed, Erin jumped into the test as if she had been inspired by something.

"The championship is definitely mine, you better think about going there after we win, by the way, do you think it's really appropriate to let Paul pay for us? Will he get angry or give you trouble later? Hong Tao is not interested in Lao Mei's habit of being able to advertise anything, but he is still a little unsure about the bet with Paul.

"No, it's an open bet to keep your promise whether you win or lose. Even if the losing side is 100% able to deliver on its promises, it is an honor. If Paul was an ordinary clerk, he might move away, but in his position, even if you don't ask for it, he has to chase you for it, otherwise it won't be a good thing for him and his family to get it out. Erin patted Hong Tao's face and told Hong Tao about Americans' habits of betting.

"Oh, then I'll rest assured, in this case, it is justified for me to win him, and it is only natural for him to pay for it, if I don't want it, he will be anxious with me, right?" Hong Tao finally let go of a stone in his heart, although he was not afraid of Paul, but he was afraid that Paul would hold a grudge and find trouble with Erin in the future.

"Well, if you don't want to, he'll think you're deliberately humiliating him, so you're welcome, help me think of a fun place, I really can't think of it, why don't you go to Europe?" Erin rubbed her temples as if she were squeezing out of her head.

"No, it's not as good as the United States, it's expensive, and the scenery is just like that, it's just a little more museums and art galleries, but I'm bothered by what stuff, and besides, it's going to be winter now, and we have to go to the tropics or the southern hemisphere." Hong Tao shook his head quickly when he heard Erin's proposal.

"You want me to go hunting in Africa again?" Erin squeezed out another plan.

"It's too expensive, Paul only promised to give us air tickets and accommodation, he definitely won't give us money to ask for prey, and that money is too much, even if he does, I'm embarrassed to accept it." Hong Tao agreed with Erin's suggestion, but after thinking about going to fight for a long time, he couldn't get anything back, so he didn't want to be stimulated by that.

"That's right, if only he had all the money out, we could go shopping in Paris......" Erin followed Hong Tao's words and began to extend again.

"Why don't we go to Australia, have you been?" Hong Tao scanned the world map in his mind and found that he seemed to be the only one he hadn't been to yet, and he had played all over the other continents.

"I haven't been there, so let's go to Australia, you can see kangaroos!" Erin didn't actually have a predetermined goal, and when she heard Hong Tao say this, she agreed, so the two of them immediately left the restaurant, ran back to the room, and began to look up travel programs about Australia on the Internet.

Compared with the first two days, there was a big change in the third day of the game, of course, only for Hong Tao. Due to the lack of results on the first day, Erin did not finish in the top 10 of the amateur category even though she won first place on the second day.

In this way, she will not be able to go with the boat to compete with Hong Tao. The competition in the amateur category is only 3 days, and today is the final of the amateur category. The Pro competition lasts for four days, with the third and fourth days qualifying, and only the top 10 professional anglers who have caught their catches in the first two days can participate.

There are 10 anglers in the amateur group and 10 anglers in the professional group, and these 20 people are divided into 10 pairs by lottery, and each professional angler is paired with an amateur angler, and on the last day of the competition, there is only one professional player left on each fishing boat.

Among the 20 people, Hong Tao estimated that he was the youngest, and his companion was the oldest. This old grandfather's surname is Cage, and his single name is one word, Dan. According to his self-introduction, he is from a place called Salver Springs, Texas, which seems to be not far from Dallas.

This time he came to the competition with his two sons and a grandson, but the family was an amateur. His two sons and a grandson have been eliminated, and only this grandfather made it to the final with a fourth-place finish in the amateur category, and the grandfather's fishing fan said that his biggest wish in life is to advance to the professional category and become a professional player.

Danyi said that he was from Texas, and he still brought his son and grandson to participate in the competition, Hong Tao suddenly remembered a person, oh, no, it should be said that it was a family, that is, the Mota family on the fishing position next door when they participated in the fishing competition in Europe, aren't they also the second and third generations of people who came out to fish together? It's basically the same situation with this Dan.

Thinking of Mota's family, Hu Fei suddenly felt a little embarrassed, because they got along well when they were fishing in Europe, and they left each other's phone calls before leaving, agreeing that they would say hello when they went to China or Hong Tao came to the United States. But before he left Europe, he had already forgotten about this matter, and if it weren't for the appearance of this Grandpa Dan, he probably wouldn't have remembered the Mota family for a long time.

In fact, I can't remember it, but it is not appropriate to come to the United States to participate in a fishing tournament without telling the Mota family, who regards him as friends. People are also fishing fans, and Hong Tao believes that as long as they are still in the United States, they will definitely watch this show, after all, this is the most influential fishing competition in the United States.

"Hey, is this the Mota family?" Hong Tao pondered for a long time, but still took out his mobile phone and dialed the phone number recorded on it according to the number recorded on it.

"I'm Motta III, who are you?" A familiar voice came from the phone, and Hong Tao was 100% sure that the young man was watching the live broadcast of the FLW game, because there was a burst of engine sounds on the phone, which should be the sound of the motor on the camera boat.
