Chapter 524: Chapter 237: Murderous Intent_2

"I have a suggestion, why not have them come to the site and see what the situation is like in the battle? Signing such an angler as your company’s brand ambassador, are you sure that’s a good choice?"

Yoshino did not speak, but the current state of the competition, coupled with Saito’s instigation, still sparked some thoughts in his mind.

Saito’s words seemed to make sense; after all, an image ambassador is the face of the brand. If the ability does not match the fame, it is the Dawa Company that pays the price and suffers humiliation.

"Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Saito. You are perhaps exaggerating a bit, but since it’s an internal company competition, inviting higher-level executives to watch is a good suggestion. I’ll call the leadership right now. Mr. Lin Yang, you don’t mind, do you?"

Hearing this, Lin Yang simply shook his head and said indifferently, "Do as you please, I don’t mind."

Soon, Yoshino took out his phone, dialed a number, and stepped aside to speak briefly before returning to continue his role as the judge.

About 5 minutes later, the half basin of dry bait beside Lin Yang was used up.

As he turned to take the other half of the wet bait from the food box, Tang Ze Yixiong, the president of Dawa Corporation who had just discussed a potential contract with Lin Yang, appeared walking towards Heila Pond with two corpulent subordinates.

Seeing his boss arrive, Yoshino immediately went up to him with obsequious nods and bows to relay the situation.

Tang Ze Yixiong glanced at the two competitors but didn’t rush to speak. Instead, he smiled and nodded at Lin Yang, as if to greet him.

At this moment, Saito Shunichi caught another fish, making it seven in total.

"Haha, Mr. Tang Ze Yixiong, it seems that the Chinese angler you found isn’t very skilled!" Saito Shunichi said, laughing again.

"I have confidence in Mr. Lin Yang’s skills. It’s just an ordinary competition, Mr. Saito, you might be overreacting a bit," Tang Ze Yixiong replied without any sign of worry, seemingly indifferent to the outcome of the match as expected of someone who could head a renowned fishing gear brand.

Lin Yang looked at Saito and with a slight lift of the corners of his mouth, said, "Mr. Saito, we have a saying in China, ’The early plumpness doesn’t count; it’s the later plumpness that breaks the bed.’ The ones who plump up first are just fattening up. Have you heard of that? The real competition is just beginning, and I’m about to chase the score. You better watch closely!"

The next second, Lin Yang stood up and switched the 3.6-meter rod he used for baiting with a super stiff rod that was more than sufficient for hauling in carp.

At the same time, he took a thick line needle from the toolbox at his back and screwed it tight onto the fishhook’s end.

Seeing this scene, Saito Shunichi was puzzled and didn’t know what was happening, while the live streaming audience went wild.

"Haha, the host is about to start performing."

"Seeing Master Lin set up the line needle, I can already visualize it: Fly-hooking big Crucian Carp, and the foreigner gaping in disbelief."

"This Saito knows how to play, online public humiliation, spiraling to the heavens, I salute you as the grandmaster of showboating and crashing!"

In the midst of everyone’s anticipation, Lin Yang for the first time pulled up on the double hooks two fuzzy, ball-shaped bait, extended his arm, flicked his wrist and cast the rod, go!

The fish at the baiting spot underwater had long been bombarded by heaps of bait to a mid-water position. As soon as the two excellent-condition baits hit the water, they were immediately met with frenetic biting.

Just as the float turned and started to submerge, there were two decisive and forceful bites.

With a quick reaction, Lin Yang lifted the rod to set the hook!

The force from underwater wasn’t small, and as the first rod came up, it was a double catch.

He skillfully used his upper arm to direct his forearm’s force, utilizing the rod’s strong backbone to pop the fish out of the water.

Go!

Two high-back crucians of about a pound each were effortlessly flipped out of the water and flew towards Lin Yang.

With a gentle motion of the tiger’s mouth of his left hand to dissipate the force and his right hand holding the rod with the ring finger hooking onto the main line, the two fish were deftly blocked one after the other on the needle and plopped into the keepnet.

With the perfect execution of the fly-hooking technique, the judge, Yoshino, was instantly stunned.

In Japan, when fishing for small fish, there are those who use a line needle tool for unhooking, but in Heila, the majority would use a landing net.

But this angler from China showed no intention of netting the fish.

Directly using the line needle for the one-pound fish, and after making a double catch, it took him no longer than 10 seconds to go from lifting the fish to placing them in the keepnet.

The sheer skill of this technique left Yoshino dumbfounded!

"Just seven fish. With one rod catching two, it would take only four casts to overtake. I don’t think it’s difficult," said Lin Yang with a smile.

Quickly, he cast his second rod out.

Again, an exaggerated scramble for the bait was met with two decisive bites, and Lin Yang once more lifted the rod to set the hook—a double catch on the second cast!

Repeating the classic technique of the previous fly-hooking, two more fish were secured.

Yoshino, a bit flustered, stammered, "Mr. Lin Yang, you currently have....four valid catches!"

Hearing this, Saito finally came to his senses. His eyes, grim with a tinge of darkness, were fixed on Lin Yang’s actions.

Maintaining a calm demeanor, Lin Yang leisurely cast his third rod into the water, but this time he intentionally pinched a bit of wet bait at the spot where the hook’s shank met the line.

The subtle change in the weight of the bait made the float turn slightly faster than before, but Lin Yang paid it no mind.

Deliberately giving the fish a bit more line, he lifted the rod again.

Yet another double catch emerged from the water!

Three casts, six fish. After Lin Yang steadily unhooked the fish from the line needle and placed them in the keepnet, he looked up and smiled at Saito: "Six fish now. It seems Mr. Saito is about to be overtaken, doesn’t it?"
