This time, there were no requirements for fishing spots in the fan fishing competition; the entire uninhabited island was a fishing area.
As long as you don't disturb other fishermen or cheat during the fishing process, that's fine.
Although there were only 104 contestants in this competition, the number of staff was twice that of the contestants, which was enough to handle everything that happened afterward.
If you were to ask Bai Yu for his assessment of this island, he would say it's barren. The island is extremely barren; there's nothing on it at all.
This island is more accurately described as a reef than a small island. The entire island is brownish-red and made entirely of rocks, with not a single shred of vegetation (excluding seaweed and kelp).
There aren't many fishing areas around the island; it's all rocky terrain, and there's very little space for anglers to put their feet down, especially flat areas.
However, Bai Yu and his three companions each had their own way of dealing with this situation, which was to build a fishing platform!
As the organizers of this competition, Bai Yu and his three companions were quite familiar with the competition environment, since they needed to assess whether the five small islands were suitable for fishing.
So they made very comprehensive preparations in terms of equipment, even preparing fishing platforms.
Of course, this wasn't something just the four of them prepared. They had also talked to the other contestants before the competition started, but whether they prepared it or not, or listened to their advice, was none of their business.
Soon, Bai Yu and his three companions chose their fishing spots; they planned to fish in the southeast corner of the island.
This location is excellent. Although it is in the southeast corner, it is not directly exposed to the sun. The sun is located slightly to the north, making this area a shaded region.
The four of them were about six or seven meters apart, and then they set up the fishing platform.
After finishing all that, all that's left is to wait for nine o'clock to arrive so that their match can begin.
It was at this moment that Li Shuang and Bai Yu started chatting.
"Brother Yu, we've taken a stroll around the island, and we were really surprised by what we found!"
I really didn't expect that there would be so much trash on this deserted island, so far away from humans. Where did all this trash come from?
"Where did the trash come from? It must have been brought over by the ocean. Look at that bottle of iced tea over there, isn't that a domestic brand? There are also some foreign brands over there, they have all kinds."
Alas! Everyone says that we humans are the masters of the Earth, and that we should cherish our planet, but looking at the current situation, what we've done is far from enough.
Bai Yu and the others had mixed feelings about the environment on the island.
This island was extremely dirty; it was truly filthy, and that word is not an exaggeration at all.
This contains not only the plastic bottles Bai Yu mentioned, but also a lot of plastic products, such as plastic bags, plastic shells, clothes, and fragments of certain equipment.
Although we humans have discovered many resources from the ocean, we have also caused a great deal of damage to it, resulting in a huge amount of garbage in the ocean.
The marine life is the most severely affected by this garbage.
In recent years, there have been frequent reports of marine life being found with trash in their stomachs, and subsequently losing their lives because of this trash.
The reason Bai Yu and his team set the competition on these uninhabited islands was to expose the environment of these islands and, incidentally, give them a thorough cleaning.
As the saying goes, the poor should only try to maintain their own integrity.
Bai Yu and his group have made some money now, so it's not really appropriate to apply the idea of "minding one's own business" to them.
Since that's the case, they'll take advantage of this competition to clean up the islands and remove the trash.
The reason for showing these scenes now is to make viewers who watch the live stream pay a little more attention to environmental issues.
Our family's environmental protection approach is unlike that of those radical groups abroad. We just need to put our trash where it should be and not litter.
As expected, when Zhang Yuxin arrived on the island with her camera crew, the moment the island's environment was revealed, it immediately caused a huge uproar in the live broadcast room.
The first reaction of netizens to the environment on the island was disbelief, as if what appeared before them was not an island, but a garbage disposal plant.
They found it hard to understand why Bai Yu and his team had chosen this environment as the competition venue.
However, after Zhang Yuxin explained things clearly, they went from not understanding to understanding, and then they began to reflect.
However, some people have raised a different opinion, arguing that this garbage is not entirely our fault, given that we are not the only country bordering the South China Sea.
We know our own family's situation well. We can't say that everyone is civilized, but it's definitely much better than before.
However, the situation is quite different for the countries surrounding the South China Sea. Many of them are poor and underdeveloped, and some even rely on receiving foreign waste for sustenance.
Zhang Yuxin's only response to these comments was that we can't control what happens in other people's countries, but the South China Sea is our country's, and we have to take care of our own environment.
The first thing we need to do is stop throwing garbage ourselves, and then we can worry about others and prevent them from throwing trash into our homes. If anyone dares to do so, we should chop off their hand.
To be fair, even though Zhang Yuxin is a girl, as a woman from Sichuan and Chongqing, she spoke with considerable force.
Especially when he said that if anyone dared to extend their claws, he would chop off their claws, it sent a chill down the spines of many henpecked viewers in the live stream.
As time passed, more and more contestants arrived on the island and saw its environment.
They only made a few minor complaints before starting to look for a place to go fishing.
This kind of thing happens to all the contestants, whether they are internet celebrities or ordinary people. Basically, they just give a couple of comments, make a couple of harmless complaints, and then leave.
For these athletes, this island is just a passing phase, a place that will only stay for a day in their lives. Once today is over, they may never come back here again.
Therefore, the environment of this small island is not too important to them. Whether it is clean or dirty and chaotic, it doesn't matter, they can tolerate it.
Actually, there's nothing wrong with their idea; most people would probably react the same way if they saw this situation.
However, for Bai Yu and his group, this matter cannot be left unresolved. At least for the next five small islands, they can clean them up.
They had already planned out the costs of cleaning up the island. All the revenue from the five days of live streaming during the competition would be used to clean up the island, including the video revenue from the competition itself.
Of course, Bai Yu and the others did not publicize this matter; they let it happen naturally.
