Chapter 901: Boiling a Frog Slowly, Seizing the First Victory



Once the thinking shifted, a series of chain reactions immediately flashed through the mind.

Old Zhou thought of the terrible consequences that might follow, and his mind went blank. His hand trembled involuntarily as he cast the line.

Only one thought in his mind—it's over, the pot is broken!

At this critical juncture, what to do? What to do? Must stay calm!

Yes, stay calm! Absolutely can't panic!

An experienced angler is able to prioritize the crucial moments.

He immediately slowed down the frequency, eased the pace, then opened the fishing box as well, contemplating adding additives to the doughball pellets.

But after staring at over a dozen additives in the fishing box for a long time, Old Zhou didn't dare to take one out and boldly mix it in.

Medicinal wine and flavor-type small additives are not the same concept. If you can't be sure of the effect and add them recklessly, it could lead to big problems.

Having already made a mistake, he could not continue down this path. If another blunder was made, there would be no need to play the fifth segment.

Offstage, Yue Feng clearly understood Old Zhou's concerns through the camera, smiled, and shook his head, then turned to Wang Xiaomin and Xue Kai.

"Xiaomin, did you understand Zhou Qigang's series of reactions on stage?"

Wang Xiaomin nodded and then shook his head: "The neighboring one seems to realize he's in a trap, wanting to follow suit and add additives to the opening-feed pellets, but hesitates! We added medicinal wine; he probably doesn't have a similar reliable product, right?"

Yue Feng nodded: "Do you two think his current thinking is correct?"

Wang Xiaomin said nothing, instead turning to look at Xue Kai, signaling him to express his opinion.

Xue Kai was quite active around the brothers and talked a lot, but he became much more reserved in front of Yue Feng and Zhao Zheng Zhao Ran. Wang Xiaomin's gesture was to give his brother a chance to speak.

Xue Kai understood Xiaomin's intention and said, "I think it's correct! If you make a mistake, you should stop immediately; otherwise, it'll only get worse! Given the current fishing situation, the use of flavored additives needs to be cautious. If the taste direction and concentration are wrong, the fish won't go for it!"

Upon hearing this, Yue Feng nodded and asked, "Xiaomin, what do you say?"

Wang Xiaomin: "My opinion is basically the same as Brother Kai's! If it were me up there now, I'd also choose to be conservative, let the nest settle, find a steady rhythm, and wait for the opening feed underwater to disperse a bit, maybe the fish bites will improve!"

At this, Yue Feng shook his head again, smiling: "If you two really play it safe like that, you'd be wrong, terribly wrong!"

"Huh?"

"What?"

The brothers both showed a puzzled look, like discovering a glaring red cross on a test where they calculated 1+1=2, completely unexpected.

Yue Feng, smiling, continued, "Do you remember the earlier example of choosing to guard big fish or continue fishing small fish? At this critical point now, the core of the strategy is actually the same.

It's already beyond salvage, so do you take a gamble for a vague chance, or do you let it simmer, waiting for a slow death? If I were handling this endgame, I would choose to take a gamble! Otherwise, it would be like surrendering in advance!"

After Yue Feng's analysis, the two brightened up and immediately caught on.

"Right, I was taking it for granted!"

"Understood, the strategic choice in tactics!"

Yue Feng: "Continue to watch and see if there's any turning point! I think it's already reached the point that decides the ensuing victory or defeat. If you don't seize the last chance now, by the fifth segment, it'll be completely over!"

The rest of the fourth segment indeed unfolded exactly as Yue Feng predicted. Zhou Qigang adjusted his rhythm, but there was still no improvement. Although he caught some fish, the overall score gap widened.

In the fifth segment, Zhao Zheng took the stage, and Fish Hunter switched to their last fishing spot, Qian Bo.

Old Zhou didn't improvise on stage, but offstage, captain Yu Wensheng and the team members had a clearer view and made some considerations,

When Qian Bo took the stage, he added a substantial amount of barley paste flavor to the doughball pellets to try to rely on the effect of small additives and gamble on some luck.

Barley paste is a basic type of grain fragrance additive with a mild flavor, not prone to kill the nest, and bears quite a similarity to medicinal wine,

but the fish situation's turning point had passed. Now in the final segment, adjusting the bait, the density of opening fish was too low, nearly fished out, and even after busying for a while, there wasn't any breakthrough.

Under Zhao Zheng's extremely stable performance, he neatly and swiftly won the fifth segment again.

"Competitors and staff on stage, please note, there are five seconds remaining in this match. Stop fishing when you hear the whistle, 54321! The match is over!"

As the whistle blew, the four anglers simultaneously put down their fishing rods.

Zhao Zheng fished very steadily and easily this match, feeling just like basic training.

After standing up and stretching lazily, he didn't rush to pack up, casually pouring the handwashing water in the basin behind him.

Soon, staff lifted the fish guards and weighed them with the electronic scale.

After five segments, Fish Hunter's total weight was 21.3kg.

On Yuefeng Fishing Tackle's side, they caught much more, with a total weight of 26.9kg,

Yue Feng's side firmly took the first match, accumulating a total of three points.

On the other side, the match between Hua Clan and Tianyuan Youth Training Team also had results. The weight difference between the two teams wasn't that big; Hua Clan weighed 24.7kg, Tianyuan weighed 22.8kg, allowing Hua Clan to win the first match by a margin of 1.9kg.

During the break before drawing lots for the second match, Coach Ma received the technical statistics for the first match of Yuefeng Fishing Tackle.

Ma Yuhua: "Little Han, here, take a look at Yuefeng's technical statistics and their tactical play for the previous match! After reading, what are your thoughts?"

Although Han Luofeng won this match, it wasn't without difficulty. Seeing Yuefeng's huge catch difference of 5.6kg made him frown, carefully studying the technical statistics with full concentration.

They opened with the doughballs fishing method, each segment's catch numbers, and the nest fish condition, along with the opponent's situation next door.

After roughly going through it, a clear picture of the match scene emerged in his mind. Particularly, the position of several match nodes, which were extremely crucial.

After reading, Han Luofeng frowned even deeper! The gap was just too vast!

Though Hua Clan pk'd Tianyuan and won, the fish condition remained quite tense, whereas Yue Feng's side was in an absolute leading position from the first segment, dominating from start to finish, especially the decline of Fish Hunter's catch in the fourth segment, that gap was too obvious.

Although Fish Hunter's comprehensive strength is slightly inferior to Tianyuan Youth Training Team, the gap shouldn't be this huge!!
