The fact that the staff are able to know the information about each boat is intentional on the part of the race organizers.
The competition has now entered its final day, and the champion will be decided in this round.
To make the competition more intense, the organizers will announce all the big catches caught by the contestants on this day and conduct an evaluation of them.
For example, Bai Yu had just returned to his fishing spot, ready to tackle the croaker he'd been eyeing with his machete, after catching the bluefin tuna.
The loudspeaker on the fishing boat blared, announcing information about the bluefin tuna that Bai Yu had just caught, especially emphasizing that this tuna had become the new king of fish and was currently valued at 180,000 RMB.
Bai Yu felt an overwhelming sense of familiarity upon hearing the broadcast; he seemed to have heard it many times before while fishing.
However, he was focused on fishing at the time and didn't notice what was being said on the radio. Now he realizes that it was announcing the catches of other players.
It was Bai Yu's tuna that directly provoked the contestants on the entire fishing boat.
That's 180,000! And that's just an estimated price; the final transaction price could very well exceed that.
For the contestants competing on fishing boats, excluding Bai Yu, the remaining 16 contestants might not even earn 180,000 yuan a year.
Now that a single tuna from Baiyu has reached this price, how could they not be excited?
After all, if the white fish can catch them, there's no reason why they can't. Even if they can't catch a tuna weighing four or five hundred pounds, catching one or two hundred pounds is fine too. They're not that picky.
For the other players, any fish that has value and can be sold at a high price is a good catch.
Most of the contestants have already given up on competing for the championship. After all, there are 17 contestants on a fishing boat. While they may not know the exact catch of the other contestants, they have a general idea of how many of them have caught more than them.
In this situation, many players have already changed their mindset. They no longer aim for the championship, but instead focus on the value of their catch.
They want to rely on the quantity of fish to obtain enough value and bring themselves higher profits.
Making money is the most basic, realistic, and ultimate goal!
The atmosphere on Bai Yu's boat was just as intense as that on the other fishing boats; all of them were spurred on by Bai Yu's tuna, pushing the competition to its peak.
At the beginning of the competition, many contestants were still hesitant to try to catch the giant fish, thinking they should focus on catching small fish to make money.
But the appearance of this 180,000-dollar fish made them realize a reality: no matter how many small fish they catch, they are not as valuable as a giant one!
Then they all changed their fishing strategies and began to target the giant fish.
This is definitely good news for the competition and the live broadcast.
After all, the atmosphere of the competition has changed. Everyone has become more motivated, and the competition has become more intense, making the live broadcast more interesting.
If the competition becomes more interesting, the number of viewers will definitely increase, which will also benefit Bai Yu's company.
After all, their company is a live-streaming sales platform, so even during the competition, there are always shopping carts available in the live stream.
The livestream hosts would occasionally show off various products.
Well, they just wave their hands briefly and don't explain the product information. They're just reminding the viewers in the live stream that there are various products in the yellow shopping cart, and viewers can buy what they need.
Even though they didn't sell any products, the sales volume in the live broadcast room has been very good over the past few days, with daily sales exceeding 100 million yuan.
Sometimes, when you have a large enough audience, selling products becomes a very easy thing, not to mention that Yu Xue Company's live streaming room broadcasts for 18 hours a day.
Compared to the excitement of the other contestants, Bai Yu seemed much calmer, after all, the 180,000 yuan tuna was his own.
Bai Yu cut a croaker weighing over ten kilograms into three parts. He first hooked the head part with a little bit of the body onto the hook. This part alone weighed about four or five kilograms.
He then cast the hook and bait out. With this kind of bait, if a fish bites the hook, it will definitely be a big fish.
Moreover, the croaker used by Baiyu is very fresh; after it thaws, the residual blood flows out.
And in the ocean, the creature most sensitive to blood—I think it doesn't need to be explained too clearly; everyone should know what that creature is.
That must be a shark!
Bai Yu's goal this time was to catch sharks, but not the kind that weighs four or five hundred pounds, or even over a thousand pounds—great white sharks.
Instead, it's the kind of great white shark that weighs 100-200 pounds, which is relatively easier to catch.
Catching a great white shark of this size is practically a guaranteed win. Although it has no economic value, catching just one adds 500 jin to your score, which is much easier than simply catching a 500 jin fish.
If we could catch a few more, we might even be able to compete for the championship.
Of course, if you're unlucky and end up catching a great white shark weighing over 500 pounds, or even over 1,000 pounds, then you can only say that you were really unlucky.
Fishing for more than 500 but less than 1,000 is a loss, since great white sharks have no economic value and are extremely troublesome to catch, consuming a lot of the angler's physical strength.
Needless to say, anything over 1,000 pounds is even more difficult to catch. It's a waste of time, and you might even lose a set of fishing line in the end.
However, given the current situation, it's clear that this behemoth is something we have no choice but to fish for.
You can't be the only one fishing for something different while everyone else is fishing for big fish.
If you can't catch a big fish, and you don't take a chance, how can you compete for the championship in this competition?
Besides, the atmosphere has already been built up to this point, so we're definitely going to catch this big fish today!
