There are indeed prawns in the Hokkaido fishing grounds, but the output is very small. Few people can catch four or five tons at once. At least Yu Jiang and his friends have never seen it, or even heard of it.
"Botan shrimp is the best choice for sashimi. It first became popular here in Xiaozhuo, and then gradually spread to China, and the price also rose accordingly." Yu Jiang began to explain.
"But even here in Hong Kong, most of the prawns we eat are imported from Canada. The prawns from Hokkaido are very rare, so they are also very expensive."
"I've seen in the market before that the purchase price of local fresh prawns can reach 170 yuan per kilogram, and the selling price is sold by the piece."
Although everyone knows that prawns are good things, after hearing the price in person, they still couldn't help but be shocked.
This net carries more than four tons, which is almost nine thousand kilograms. If calculated at one hundred and seventy yuan, that would be one and a half million!
Just this one net is enough to complete the task for the day.
"While the shrimps are still alive, let's hurry up and sort them first, and then put the nets down." Zheng Gan didn't dare to delay. If he put the nets down first like before, the number of dead shrimps would probably increase, and the price would not be that high.
Everyone present also reacted and quickly took their small stools to start sorting. Even Song Zhao came out of the cockpit to help.
This time the sorting really didn't waste any time at all. Everyone worked hard and in the end it only took more than an hour to clean up everything. There were only a few dozen kilograms of dead shrimp.
Zheng Gan was very satisfied with this, so he ordered Jia Teng to deal with the dead shrimps and keep them as a snack for everyone in the evening. The taste of the freshly dead prawns was not much worse and they were still good stuff.
"Let's continue with the second net!" The map plug-in showed that there were still some red dots of the same size as the prawns, enough for the second net.
Although it was tiring, everyone was full of enthusiasm and energy because of such good results.
…
Boss Hu really took the competition that Zheng Gan mentioned as a serious matter. After hanging up the phone, he found local government officials and some professionals to discuss and study how to organize this competition.
"Mr. Hu, our preliminary investigation and research show that this competition requires an investment of approximately 10 million yuan, of which 40% is for prize money, 40% for publicity, and the remaining 20% for miscellaneous items." The planning team that specializes in organizing various competitions gave their opinion.
Boss Hu nodded and motioned them to continue. The cost was not a large amount and he could afford it all by himself. It was only 10 million, which was nothing.
And even if they lose money, it won't be much. After all, there are still advertising revenues and seafood brought back by participating fishing boats.
Besides, it won’t be a disadvantage to make friends with Zheng Gan through this competition.
"As for the profit, just like you just mentioned, if you add up the live broadcast fees and advertising fees, the profit should be 15%, which is about 1.5 million."
The planning team has already given their investigation opinions. What remains is whether Boss Hu intends to do it himself or organize it together with the government.
"Look, this amount of money is just a drop in the bucket for me, so..." Boss Hu looked at the government officials around him.
"Mr. Hu, we are very aware of your strength, but there are also many official matters that need to be resolved. If it is inconvenient for you to come forward, you can leave it to us, right? Don't worry, we can get less profit, as long as we can maintain the reputation of co-hosting." The local government staff said flatteringly.
A little money doesn't matter to them, but the more publicity the better. The help at that time will be much greater than this small profit.
As for why they didn't hold the competition themselves, the key point was that it was Boss Hu who proposed it. Even if they left others alone and held the competition themselves, the final result would definitely be that it would not be successful.
"That's settled then. Happy cooperation." Boss Hu smiled and shook hands with the government official.
Now, both the black and white worlds have started to prepare for the fishing competition in full swing, but Zheng Gan and his companions on the boat know nothing about it.
At this time, the second net of prawns was also on the deck. In order to ensure their freshness, everyone began to sort them eagerly.
The total value of the two nets of prawns exceeded three million, which exceeded the daily target. In addition, there were no large groups of red dots nearby, so Zheng Gan simply announced that the work for the day was over.
During the sorting process, nearly 100 kilograms of prawns from the two nets died. Although these could be sold, Zheng Gan didn't mind the money, so he just had them as dinner.
In the next two days, they also cast nets and sorted the seafood in an orderly manner. Although they did not get such precious seafood as the prawns, at least the goals set for each day were completed normally.
Three days was the limit for the survival of the prawns, so on the third night, after Zheng Gan collected the nets, the boat headed towards the dock.
It was already early morning when we arrived, and Boss Hu was already waiting there.
"Brother Hu, why do you have to come here in person so late?" Zheng said with a dry smile.
"Didn't I hear that they caught two nets of prawns? That's really good stuff." Boss Hu's eyes lit up. Even though these prawns were only worth three million, the subsequent economic value they would bring was more than that.
"By the way, brother, we've already started preparing for the fishing and catching competition you told me about. Including the publicity and preliminary preparations, it's scheduled to officially begin in half a month."
Zheng Gan was overjoyed when he heard this. He had not expected that Boss Hu was so efficient. All the procedures were completed in just a few days, and the project could officially start in half a month.
"Please tell me when you can register. I want to participate and I must win the championship."
Boss Hu laughed heartily. "Don't worry, brother. Even if you didn't have time to sign up, it's okay. This is our competition, so everything will be easy."
After saying this, he winked at Zheng Gan, the meaning of which was self-evident.
"I've made it clear in advance that I will show no mercy to any of the contestants from the "Daily Life" group. If you, Brother Hu, feel it's inappropriate, I won't participate in the competition," said Zheng Gan.
