Let's go back to 2008, starting with a recreational fishing park.

At Qingshan Fishing Park, the storm was still raging.

At this moment, because of the emcee's words, almost all the contestants sat seriously in their fishing spots, their eyes fixed straight ahead.

Seeing this, Jiang Xia told Jiang Xiaobo to go back inside and bring the video camera.

He felt that such moments should be recorded.

But the next second, someone in the previously quiet audience suddenly shouted:

"A fish's on the hook! Look over there, isn't one of the contestants hooking a fish?"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked in the direction the spectator was pointing.

Jiang Xia was startled; it was contestant number 56, and he had actually caught a fish.

Originally, Jiang Xia was simply impressed by the other party's calm demeanor.

But seeing the opponent catch the fish, he couldn't help but sigh, "Sometimes, heaven really does reward a hard-working player!"

"Damn, that's awesome!"

"With such heavy rain, this guy still managed to catch fish!"

“…………”

Many people in the audience were exclaiming in amazement.

However, some people noticed something was amiss:

"Hey buddy, why haven't you gotten the net and scooped the fish up yet?"

"Yeah, with this heavy rain, do the fish in the water become stronger?"

“…………”

At this moment, an experienced angler who couldn't participate due to limited spots said:

"Wait a minute! What this guy caught is something special. Look at the curve of his fishing rod!"

"It's a big bluefish!"

"Damn, if this guy can be pulled out of the water, in this kind of weather, he's probably a shoo-in for first place!"

As the owner of the fishing spot, Jiang Xia didn't need the other party to remind him; based on his own experience, he knew that the man at number 56 had caught a big grass carp!

Upon hearing that the other person had caught a large grass carp, the audience excitedly gathered around fishing spot number 56.

Just then, perhaps due to the force of the large creature in the water, coupled with the heavy rain, contestant number 56 suddenly stumbled and almost fell to the ground.

"Ouch..." This scene startled the audience on the dam.

"Hold on, buddy. If it really comes down to it, just let go. Don't fight the fish head-on!"

Someone in the audience shouted at the eldest brother.

However, after a short while, the older brother gradually regained his grip on the fishing rod.

It's unclear who in the audience first shouted, but then everyone started chanting towards number 56:

"Keep it up!"

"Keep it up!"

“…………”

At that moment, contestant number 56, who was wrestling with the big fish, heard the sound coming from above and glanced up.

Then, taking advantage of the moment when the big fish slightly lost its strength, he stretched out a hand and gave a slight OK sign to the audience.

This scene was witnessed by many viewers who were closely watching his movements.

Meanwhile, many viewers burst into laughter upon seeing this.

"Haha, buddy, stop making those OK signs and focus on fishing!"

"Haha, this guy is quite interesting!"

“…………”

Jiang Xia couldn't help but burst out laughing when he saw this.

He initially thought his older brother was a meticulous person because of his focused demeanor in the pouring rain, but he never expected him to be such an interesting soul.

……

Finally, after about ten minutes, the older brother managed to scoop the fish into the net with one hand while supporting the fishing rod with the other.

"Dude, you're awesome!"

"Dude, you're awesome!"

Upon seeing this, the audience on stage erupted in excited cheers.

Because they were worried that it would rain and that fish number 56 might be accidentally dragged into the water by the fish, the referee, who was already standing behind them, threw the fish umbrella he was holding toward the shore as soon as the big fish came ashore.

Once the fish is on land, the referee can immediately take over and weigh it.

Because the fish was too big, number 56 didn't just ignore it after the referee came over, but tried to help the other side complete the weighing.

However, the referee knew better. This was a competition, so how could he let the contestant put down his fishing rod to help him?

He immediately told No. 56 to go back to fishing, and then waved to his colleague who was in charge of the other ten contestants not far away.

The referee had already noticed the situation and, seeing someone waving at him, jogged over with an umbrella.

Soon, the two referees worked together to place the large bluefish onto the scales specifically used for weighing in this competition.

When the two of them saw the numbers displayed above, they couldn't help but gasp.

Then, the referee who had come to help returned to his position.

The judge in charge of number 56 picked up the umbrella he had just thrown to the ground and jogged towards the judges' table.

"How many kilograms?"

"Yes, how much did that fish weigh?"

"They're not even going to announce it. It's making us so curious."

In the audience, many people watched as the large bluefish was put into the fish basket, and the judges went to the judges' table, and they all spoke with curiosity.

Upon seeing this scene, Jiang Xia, who was on the grandstand of the dam, immediately walked curiously toward the judges' table.

He also wanted to know as soon as possible how many kilograms the fish weighed.

Some viewers noticed Jiang Xia leaving and said directly:

"Don't worry, everyone. Boss Jiang has gone there too, so the announcement should be coming soon!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaobo, who was holding the video camera, immediately shouted:

"Yes, yes, everyone, don't worry, we'll announce the weight in a bit!"

……

While the audience was buzzing with discussion, Jiang Xia also arrived at the judges' table.

At this moment, the referee was giving Qin Songnian a detailed report.

Jiang Xia leaned closer and listened intently.

When they heard "29 jin 8 liang", he and Qin Songnian were both startled.

"Little guy, where did you get such a big fish from this reservoir?" Qin Songnian asked in surprise.

"I've forgotten too, but I did put in a few fish that weighed nearly 30 pounds when I bought them, but so much time has passed that I've forgotten the exact weight."

"Besides, fish do grow!"

Jiang Xia thought for a moment and realized that this fish was probably the largest one he had bought from Huang Dafa.

Upon hearing this, Qin Songnian couldn't help but exclaim in admiration:

"You little rascal, where did you find this fish? In this heavy rain, you still managed to pull up such a big fish."

Hearing this, Jiang Xia smiled and explained, "Old Qin, this contestant is not that simple. You should have heard the announcement from the reservoir back then, that was..."

Soon, Jiang Xia gave Qin Songnian a brief description of the scene he would see.

After listening, Qin Songnian stroked his beard and exclaimed, "What? This contestant is amazing!"

"Haha, of course!" Jiang Xia said with a smile.

…………

Soon, the entire fishing area was filled with the powerful bass voice again:

"A strong wind rises, and the clouds fly high!"

"Congratulations to contestant number 56 for successfully winning the giant prize!"

"The single fish weighed 29.8 jin (approximately 14.9 catties)!"
