Chinese entertainment starts with Hong Shixian

Chapter 453 Ladies and gentlemen, times have changed!
Two cars were speeding across the lush green grassland.

In the passenger seat, Jing Tian held a map in one hand and her phone in the other, scrolling through the map app.
These days, map software isn't as accurate or precise as it is now.
Especially in this sparsely populated grassland, some hills, ponds, and other features are not marked on the phone map.
I only realized it when I was almost there.
Qi Hui suddenly remembered the online reviews of Gaode Maps before his transmigration, which had been dubbed "the map of shamelessness."
However, Qi Hui and his group were looking for river fishing.

The course of such major rivers can still be seen on a map.

Relatively speaking, it's much easier...right?

"Huh? Have we arrived?" Jing Tian looked up and noticed that Qi Hui had parked the car.
"We've arrived, but not quite." Qi Hui pointed to the front of the car.
Jing Tian turned her head and saw that there was indeed a river about twenty or thirty meters away in the distance.
But between the river and them, there was a sizable pond, with plenty of reeds and green duckweed floating on the surface.
"Ugh... this map is so hard to use!" Jing Tian said angrily, and immediately turned off her phone.

"What do we do?" Jing Tian asked. The pond was quite large and didn't look shallow.
We can't exactly wade across, can we?

"Hmm... let's fish here first," Qi Hui said. "Let's try some fishing for black fish first, and play here for a while."

"Then, by following the river upstream or downstream, you'll always find a suitable fishing spot."

"Fishing for blackfish...is that fishing for blackfish?" Jing Tian asked curiously, a little excited. She had heard Qi Hui say that fishing for blackfish was the most exciting thing!
"Okay." Qi Hui turned off the engine and got out of the car: "Let's get the shovel pole and put on our wading pants!"

As he spoke, he got out of the car and organized his equipment.

Seeing this, Jing Tian quickly followed.

……

Huang Bo, Guo Fan, and Xia Yu also got out of the car behind them.

Like Qi Hui, they also decided to fish for snakehead fish.
Of course, Qi Hui and Jing Tian are a sweet duo.
They followed, but did not get close.
After putting on her gear, Jing Tian swung her lure rod, looked at the frog bait tied to the line, and asked excitedly:
How do you fish for snakehead fish?

She was like a player who had just downloaded a game—excited, expectant, and unable to contain herself.

Whether you can catch fish isn't the point; the point is how you play.

"It's very simple!" Qi Huihe said confidently, waving his fishing rod. "Just three steps!"

"First, cast the frog out; second, wait for the blackfish to bite; third, reel the fish in."

"Oh, oh!" Jing Tian nodded repeatedly, understanding!

Guo Fan and the other two had dark faces. Even if he was trying to coax his girlfriend, he was just talking nonsense.

Is it really that easy?
……

Qi Hui flicked his wrist, and the water droplet wheel emitted a pleasant humming sound.

The distant thunder frog flew towards the reeds diagonally in front of the pond.

That place has many larvae and many adults.
Where there are insects, there are small fish to prey on; where there are small fish, there are snakehead fish to hunt.
A confident first impression guarantees a catch!

"Whoa!" Guo Fan and his two companions exclaimed in surprise from afar, looking at Qi Hui with astonishment.
The technique, strength, and accuracy with which he tossed the frog were truly impressive; it was a pleasure to watch!
Qi Hui smiled smugly. He was an expert fisherman; casting bait was a piece of cake for him.
Seeing Qi Hui move, Jing Tian also shook her fishing rod and swung it forcefully, sending the frog out.
The movements were a bit clumsy, and the force was too great; I almost lost my balance.
It's understandable, considering it's the first time.
Qi Hui gave her a spinning reel, which, when paired with a strong pole, didn't look very good, but was more suitable for beginners.
If you've never used a baitcasting reel before, it's very easy for the line to break.
That would really ruin my mood.

Compared to baitcasting reels, spinning reels are more beginner-friendly.
Qi Hui glanced at her, and after confirming that she was alright, he shook his hand and put the Thunder Frog back.
Sometimes he stops, sometimes he starts, and occasionally he shakes the pole.

Guo Fan and his two companions stared at the arrogant and flamboyant Thunder Frog in the pond, feeling a surge of surprise.
Qi Hui's fishing skills are just too good!

"Huh... Ah! The fish's on!" Jing Tian suddenly exclaimed, pulling hard with both hands and shaking the handle repeatedly.
Her face flushed with excitement, and she frantically shook the handle while simultaneously using her waist to pull the fish over.
No skill required, just brute force!

Before long, a large black fish was pulled back.
Qi Hui picked up the net hanging behind him and scooped it up.

This big black fish was quite large, about the length of Jing Tian's calf, and weighed at least five or six pounds.

"Wow wow wow..." Jing Tian couldn't contain her joy, and her hand holding the fishing rod trembled slightly.
So excited!

Qi Hui is right, fishing for snakehead is so exciting!
In the distance, Guo Fan and his two companions, who had just tossed the Thunder Frog into the water, saw Jing Tian catch such a large fish and immediately rushed over.

Damn, this isn't scientific!

How could a novice, who is so clumsy at casting, catch fish so quickly?

This unscientific!

"How's my blackfish?" Jing Tian asked with a smug smile, looking at the three people who had come to admire it.
Qi Hui just helped her put the fish into the fish bag and tied it up.
"This isn't a snakehead fish, it's a loach!" Xia Yu said.

"Yes, yes, it's a loach, just a bit big," Huang Bo said sourly. "Hey? Old Huang, aren't you from Shandong Province?" Qi Hui asked curiously, "Why do you always carry vinegar with you?"

Huang Bo: "..."

hateful!

"Old Qi, your technique was pretty good just now!" Guo Fan gave a thumbs up and praised.
"Not bad," Qi Hui waved his hand and smiled faintly.

"But why aren't you catching any fish?" Guo Fan chuckled, the implication being... what's the use of good technique if you can't even beat a beginner?

Qi Hui's lips twitched; he felt a surge of urge to punch someone.

"Hahaha..." The three of them burst into laughter. If they can't compare to Jing Tian, ​​they can't compare to Qi Hui either.

"Tch... huh?" Qi Hui was just about to scoff when suddenly the fishing rod in his hand felt heavy, almost slipping out of his grasp.
He was busy helping Jing Tian collect her fish and hadn't collected his own frogs yet!
Unexpectedly, the fish arrived!
He immediately lifted the rod and pulled hard, forcefully pulling the fish away.

He understands the technology, but doesn't want to use it.
Raw extraction is the most satisfying!

Before long, Qi Hui pulled back a black fish with water plants hanging from it.
Qi Hui lifted it up and shook it, looking at the three of them with a playful smile.
"..."×3
Damn it, I can't laugh anymore!

The smile didn't disappear; it simply moved with the catch.

……

in the afternoon
Qi Hui and his companion, along with Guo Fan and his two companions, returned.
I gained a lot
There were more than ten blackfish of various sizes, the largest of which was the five or six-pound blackfish that Jing Tian brought.

Besides these blackfish, there are also some mandarin fish and wrasse.

Jing Tian once caught a small-scaled salmon, which frightened Qi Hui so much that he quickly released it.

That thing is a Class II protected animal in China; you can't touch it.

That was close... I don't know if this girl was unlucky or incredibly lucky.

"So many fish?" Chen Guofu, Liu Xiaoqing, Yang Tianbao and others came over and were surprised to see the fish thrashing around in the box.

"Old Chen, the crew is having fish tonight!" Qi Hui clapped his hands and said with a smug smile.

He and Jing Tian cut down most of the catch, which was a bit too much, so they gave it to the film crew to handle.

Of course, Qi Hui wouldn't let the biggest black fish go.
He immediately grabbed the large black fish and headed to the kitchen, intending to make a pot of sauerkraut fish himself.
ding dong~
"Huh?" Qi Hui picked up his phone and saw that it was a message from Wu Jing.
It's time to update the video again, don't forget!
Qi Hui shrugged and said, "Let's make the pickled fish first."
Nothing, no matter how big, can stop me from eating pickled fish.
……

夜晚
The crew's accommodation was filled with laughter and cheerful conversation, as people at each table ate heartily, bowls in hand.

Since filming is tomorrow, Chen Guofu and Guo Fan naturally won't serve them any alcohol.
Besides, what's the point of drinking alcohol if you're not eating sauerkraut fish?

Liu Xiaoqing picked up pieces of fish and kept putting them into his mouth, thoroughly enjoying his meal.

Looking at the joyful scene around her, she was reminded of when she acted in "The Burning of the Yuanmingyuan".

At that time, the filming crews from mainland China and Hong Kong were working together. However, those from the mainland could only eat steamed buns and pickled vegetables, while the people from Hong Kong could eat fish and meat.

She was so angry that she burst into tears, making a scene to demand equal treatment for all mainlanders and Hong Kong residents.

Unfortunately, it didn't work out; all they managed to secure was the right to eat meat themselves.

Other mainlanders still eat steamed buns with pickled vegetables, while Hong Kong Island residents still eat fish, meat, and rice.

"Sister Liu, have the fish head." Yan Zhuoling said with a smile, placing a large fish head on her plate.
She was also an actress in the production, playing the role of Yoko.

That arrogant Japanese woman, the subordinate of the character played by Liu Xiaoqing.

"Thank you..." Looking at the incredibly young Yan Zhuoling, Liu Xiaoqing nodded with a smile, a smile carrying a hint of indescribable charm.
Cherry Ngan is from Hong Kong Island; she was born on Hong Kong Island and graduated from Hong Kong Baptist University on Hong Kong Island.
Back then, the Hong Kongers in the film crew were considered superior, even their food was better than that of the unsophisticated mainlanders.

But now... everyone, times have changed!
