Upon hearing this, the two school leaders gave him a disapproving look and said in unison, "If anyone's going to fish, it'll be us who catches it."
Tang Dahai immediately fell silent.
After all, Zhang Weiguo and Ma Jiang held much higher positions than him; he was just a counselor and wasn't even considered a school leader.
However, due to the circumstances of this period, and because Tang Dahai himself performed well and was very proactive in his work, he was highly regarded by Zhang Weiguo and Ma Jiang.
I basically take it with me for everything important.
Soon, several school leaders excitedly carried all their tools to the location they had chosen.
In their words, a good location is one of a kind.
We need to get there early to secure a good spot.
To be honest, although these seasoned veterans seem unreliable most of the time, they can be quite shrewd when it really matters.
When it comes to cooking, they may not be good at it, but when it comes to other things, there are probably not many people here who can compete with them.
They are, after all, the president and vice-president of one of the top universities in the country. In terms of intelligence, emotional intelligence, and other aspects, they are outstanding individuals.
It's just that people are easily deceived by their appearance.
If you didn't know better, you'd think he was just a greasy, useless middle-aged man.
Xu Fei also left Lu Rong and the others, leaving only Lu Rong and Su Tingyun in the same spot.
Since everyone is part of a team, Lu Rong had previously created a group chat.
As per Lu Rong's instructions, everyone should take a picture of what they catch and upload it to the group chat. If he sees suitable ingredients, he will reply to everyone.
Seeing that everyone had left, Su Tingyun suddenly felt a little embarrassed, but also a little excited.
Although it wasn't the first time the two of them had been alone together, they were happy to see that everyone was giving them space and allowing them to enjoy some time alone together.
Su Tingyun blushed instantly at the thought.
Lu Rong picked up his and Su Tingyun's fishing gear and then chose a spot on a rocky outcrop about three or four hundred meters away.
“Let’s go over there. There’s a coconut tree nearby, which is quite shady, and there’s also a big rock where we can stand and fish.” Lu Rong instantly found a spot he liked.
The island is quite large, so there are many places to choose from. Even with 13 contestants and their team members, which probably number in the dozens, they still seem very few on this island.
At this moment, Lu Rong and Su Tingyun even forgot that they came here to compete.
All I could think about was enjoying the moment and savoring this wonderful day.
At this moment, Su Tingyun was more like a shy little girl, following closely beside Lu Rong, wanting to be closer to her but too embarrassed to do so.
So close yet so distant.
The other competitors also scattered in all directions, all excited and hoping they would catch a big fish.
Not only the competitors, but also the viewers in front of their screens were incredibly excited.
The contestants had barely started preparing to go fishing when an online poll was launched to determine who would be the first to catch a big fish.
When it comes to fishing, many people are actually quite excited, since that excitement comes from the unknown future.
Nobody knows what will happen next, whether a big fish will take the bait or a tiny fish the size of a thumb.
Even a clump of seaweed drifting with the current could be caught by fishing.
"There are basically no people around this island, so I reckon there must be a lot of fish around here. The organizers really know how to choose a location."
“I often go fishing, and I’m so envious of this scene. If I could go fishing there, I would be willing to pay 1,000 yuan a day for the rental.”
"No, if you catch a few rare ones, you can recoup your investment in no time. I would do the same."
"That place is an island in the middle of a lake, surrounded by sea that is relatively far from the mainland. So the fish around the island are completely different from what we usually see at the seaside. You may encounter a lot of rare fish."
"Stop talking upstairs, the more you talk, the more excited I get. I'm so envious! Why do they have such a great fishing environment? I'm so jealous!"
"I just want to know if anyone will catch a big fish weighing tens or hundreds of kilograms."
"I used to watch those foreign variety shows, and they caught some strange fish weighing over 100 pounds when they went fishing in the middle of the sea. It was so exciting to watch."
"I estimate that even if we do manage to catch one, we won't be able to pull it up. Those fish are very strong in the water; we can't fight them off with our own strength."
"That depends on who it is. I don't believe a few people can't pull them up."
"I think Lu Rong has a high chance of getting a big fish this time, because his team has a total of six people including him, while other teams only have two or three, or even just one person."
"Not necessarily. Fishing requires not only skill, but also a lot of luck. If you're lucky, you can catch enough to eat."
"Speaking of which, Tang Haohan is really pitiful. He's all alone and doesn't even have an assistant."
"I don't think it's pitiful, I guess he's too narcissistic, thinking he can handle everything on his own."
"I think the most difficult part of today's competition is not fishing, but that you have no idea what you will catch. Only when you catch something can you decide what dish to make next."
"The person upstairs is right. This is the key point of today's competition rules. Many people focus on fishing and what kind of fish they catch, but in essence, this is a cooking competition. So I think this rule is very good. On the one hand, it is entertaining for both the contestants and the audience. On the other hand, it is a great test for the contestants because even the contestants do not know what they will catch next. The dishes will be determined based on their catch. It tests their ability to adapt to changing circumstances."
