Chapter 296 Controversy



After Uncle Sun arrived on the fishing boat, and after seeing the good stuff that Bai Yu had mentioned, he immediately placed an order with Bai Yu for 1,000 catties of large yellow croaker and 1,000 catties of pomfret.

It wasn't that he didn't want to enjoy all these good things, but rather that his abilities were limited, and he was simply powerless to do so.

Even with just a thousand catties of large yellow croaker and a thousand catties of pomfret, this catch of only one ton of fish cost Uncle Sun more than two million yuan.

The largest portion was definitely the large yellow croaker. Uncle Sun calculated the price of 1,000 jin of large yellow croaker at 2,500 yuan per jin, which cost him a total of 2.5 million yuan. The other 1,000 jin of pomfret cost 100 yuan per jin, which cost him 100,000 yuan. Together, they cost 2.6 million yuan.

After writing a check to Bai Yu, Uncle Sun immediately left the dock, making a phone call as he departed.

The reason Uncle Sun left in such a hurry was to find sales channels for Bai Yu. The person he contacted by phone was also in the hotel business, and a relatively large one at that, and someone with a good relationship with their hotel.

Since Uncle Sun couldn't possibly consume such a large batch of goods himself, these items would naturally end up in the market. So, before the news about these large yellow croakers spread, he decided to take advantage of the situation and notify a few bosses he was on good terms with, so that they could also come and pick out a batch of goods.

In this way, Bai Yu benefited, Uncle Sun gained the friendship of the other bosses, and the other bosses got the goods. It was a win-win-win situation.

Seeing how much Uncle Sun cared about his affairs, Bai Yu naturally wanted to reciprocate by giving Uncle Sun some tangible benefits.

For example, regarding the size of the large yellow croaker, he told Brother Li that Uncle Sun only gave him the larger ones, such as single ones weighing six to eight jin. He said that they should first gather a thousand jin of these sizes and send them to Uncle Sun.

Then pick out a few of the larger ones, like the kind that weigh eleven or twelve pounds, and give them separately to Uncle Sun. These are for Uncle Sun, not for the hotel; they are different.

The same applies to pomfret; for single-tailed pomfret, those weighing three or four jin are selected, and the larger ones are given to Uncle Sun.

As for the largest yellow croaker, Uncle Sun told Bai Yu not to worry. He would help contact a few bosses and have them come to the boat for a bidding process. He guaranteed that the price of this large yellow croaker would definitely not be less than 450,000.

With Uncle Sun's help, the other fishermen didn't dare to think too much. As long as Uncle Sun could help them sell a quarter of the large yellow croakers they brought back this time, and sell the larger ones, they would be content.

Large yellow croakers are quite valuable, and it's better to trade them offline. They're not easy to sell online; one can easily cost several thousand or even ten thousand yuan. Who would be willing to spend that much money?

After inspecting the fish they had brought back, they left the dock and returned to the company with the filming footage from the fishing boat.

Since Li Shuang wants to create some buzz for live-streaming e-commerce, then the fishing process is definitely indispensable.

The Yuxue fishing boat is now equipped with many cameras inside and outside the ship, and even several video recorders. When the crew is working at sea, there are people specifically filming videos next to them.

After all, their boss is the most followed individual blogger on Douyin, and their company also has its own live streaming account, so they naturally need some video material.

It didn't take long for Bai Yu and the others to arrive at the company, where they then reviewed the videos they had filmed over the past few days.

Although they had already heard Brother Li explain the fishing process on the fishing boat, they were still completely engrossed in watching the entire process on the video.

Especially when catching large yellow croaker, the sight of a net full of bright yellow croaker is dazzling and mesmerizing.

"Xiao Liu, cut out this part today. After you're done, send two copies of the video. Send one to my account and send it using my account, and send the other using the company account."

I refuse to believe that with over 70 million followers across our two accounts combined, we can't create a sensation online!"

After watching the process of catching large yellow croaker, Bai Yu greeted the employee in charge of editing at his company and asked them to edit the video as soon as possible.

This time, he plans to post a video using his own account, but it won't be an advertisement video; it will simply be a video of fishing, with no caption.

These videos may not appear to be advertisements, but they actually contain subtle advertising, albeit not very obvious.

The real advertising is done by the company account, which aims to generate some traffic for the company's next live stream.

Around noon, Bai Yu's account and the company's account posted the same video at the same time. The content of the video was the same, except that Bai Yu's video did not have a caption, while the company's video had a caption and explanation.

Moreover, this copy and description are not aimed at general consumers, but rather at hotel, restaurant, and upscale restaurant owners, or purchasing agents.

During that morning, Uncle Sun also brought six clients to Bai Yu and his group. These clients were all in the same industry: hotels.

Some are about the same size as Uncle Sun's hotels, while others are even larger.

These six customers ordered a total of 12,000 catties of large yellow croaker from them, with an average price of 2,500 yuan per catty.

In just one morning, they earned more than 30 million yuan from selling 13,000 catties of large yellow croaker.

This shows that wild large yellow croakers are really valuable, extremely valuable.

The video they released immediately sparked heated discussions online, and its popularity continues to rise.

After such a long period of development, Bai Yu's fan base is approaching 70 million, while Yu Xue Shipping Company's account has already gained more than 4 million fans in just one month.

Although a large portion of these fans overlap with Bai Yu's fans, the combined number of fans exceeds 70 million.

The video they posted quickly attracted attention, and people noticed the large number of yellow croakers in it, sparking a discussion.

However, this discussion wasn't all positive; it was controversial, and quite controversial at that.

With so many large yellow croakers, some people praised them while others criticized them, and the two sides argued back and forth in the comments section, neither willing to give in.

When the argument started in the comments section, some staff members noticed the scene and reported it to Bai Yu and others.
