"How about this, I'll let the bros help out with another wave of follows and likes, and you put in some more effort, what do you think!"

Little Meng, being so clever, immediately understood Zhang Yang's intent to quit while ahead, turned his head, grinned, and nodded: "Alright, everyone who hasn't followed yet, please follow, and hit those likes again. I'll perform a high-difficulty fish maneuver demonstration. Let's try to get the fish up faster, shall we!"

No one opposed this suggestion, and the public chat was filled with compliments.

Zhang Yang glanced at the backend, and the number of fans surged by another fifteen hundred. These are all new fans who stayed during the fish maneuver segment.

"Thanks for the support from new followers! Thanks to the old fans for the likes! Xiao Meng, show your talent!"

Zhang Yang called out loudly, his tone suddenly rising an octave.

Meng Fan anchored the rod in the crook of his arms, exaggeratedly spat a little saliva into his palms: "Everyone, watch closely! I'm going to perform a move called 'The Sage Ascends'!"

The next second, everyone saw Meng Fan stride forward with his long legs and stood atop the fishing box in the livestream.

The 29-liter fishing box was about 40 to 50 centimeters high. In terms of height, it wasn't very high, but standing on it did have quite an impact on maneuvering the fish.

The fishing rod was already in a bent, tensioned state, and now the overall focus of force was suddenly elevated by 40 to 50 centimeters, a concept that greatly increased the pressure on the big fish underwater.

The elevation shift in the force center was one thing, but Meng Fan already knew the fish underwater was about to run out of stamina, plus the fishing line was strong enough, so he made his moves even more recklessly.

He grabbed the rod tightly with both hands and lifted the handle over his head in a slanted, forward direction.

Including the height of his arms, this was another increase of at least several dozen centimeters, and the pressure on the big fish underwater surged again.

After two very coordinated moves, the big fish underwater was instantly bewildered!

Without even a decent struggle, it was directly and roughly forced out of the water!

Trying to quickly flip the fish over for weighing, Meng Fan wasn't about to let it dive back down, firmly holding the arc of the rod to keep the fish at the surface.

Seizing the chance as the big fish struggled with its tail, Meng Fan expertly choked the fish with a few gulps of water.

Well, after a set of combo moves, the big fish's last bit of stamina was depleted, completely surrendering, and soon flipped belly up.

[Wow! Meng's move is so smooth!]

[Standing on the fishing box to maneuver the fish, you've got skills!]

[Be careful though, even if the box isn't high, you're still by the water!]

[I've also seen local anglers standing on a fishing box to maneuver a fish, but that was because the rod was too soft. In this case, it's a pure dimensional reduction blow! I'll try it myself next time I encounter a big fish!]

Meng Fan grabbed the rod with one hand, turned his head, and struck a cool pose for the camera: "Boss, tell me, was that move cool or what? The big fish's belly is up, fight over!"

"Not bad, standing up there still isn't safe, come down! I'll help you net the fish, everyone in the livestream, don't go away, it's time for the prize draw!"

Zhang Yang, carrying a giant landing net, approached Meng Fan and quickly aided in scooping up the fish.

The carp, weighing just under twenty pounds, was easily lifted with one hand by an adult. Zhang Yang, like a magician, pulled out a large Fish Controller and locked it onto the fish's jawbone.

Under the livestream camera, Zhang Yang removed his left hand from the fish, suspending the whole fish, and the number on the Fish Controller's scale quickly stabilized.

17.31

Zhang Yang specially brought this figure close to the camera for everyone to see, then announced: "The final result of this guess is 17.31 kilos! Did anyone get it right?

Seeing that everyone is enthusiastic about guessing, I'm adding another layer here. In five minutes, predict the weight of the next fish ahead of time!

All those who participated in the first guess and have a screenshot can continue to participate! If you guess right in the second round, you'll get double the reward according to the screenshot rule!"

Man, Zhang Yang really is a master of streaming rhythm. Before this wave of expectation could completely die down, he's already thrown out the next round of interactive benefits guessing game!

This operation is like a Russian nesting doll, seamlessly connecting one after another, firmly holding the rhythm of the livestream in hand.

At this moment, the public chat of the livestream was instantly cleared, and a set of flashy animation effects covered the screen. A convoy of eight Lamborghini sports cars roared past in the public chat!

[GaoDaBearBaby sent a Lamborghini convoy, saying: I guessed the weight of 17.31 perfectly, thanks in advance for Brother Yang's prize!]

As can be seen, this guy isn't short of money. A single virtual Lamborghini gift costs ninety-nine yuan, and this convoy of eight cars cost eight hundred yuan, while two cases of old marinated corn with forty bags in total and ten yuan per bag only costs four hundred yuan in retail value, essentially reimbursing the prize money completely!

Seeing the gifts in the public chat, Zhang Yang immediately made a bowing gesture: "Thanks to Brother GaoDaBearBaby for the super sports car convoy! Thanks for supporting us, brother!

Come, the highest etiquette in the livestream, everyone @ the name of the gift-giving big brother in the public chat!

Taking advantage of the big brother's tip, I'll say a few more words!

All prizes from today's live guess will be verified and issued after the stream, please keep an eye on your private mailbox and keep your screenshot! There'll be someone to contact you!

A special reminder, all benefits and gameplay in our livestream will not charge any fees, including shipping, nor will we demand payment upon delivery or pre-charge personal income tax! Please stay vigilant, and beware of scams!"

@GaoDaBearBaby

@GaoDaBearBaby

@GaoDaBearBaby

All at once, over a thousand @GaoDaBearBaby messages quickly filled the screen, and the livestream atmosphere elevated another level!

In Su City, a villa district for the super-wealthy, a man in his thirties is happily holding his Apple phone.

As for the prize, it's not important to someone of his wealth level, but the thrill of winning and the ambiance Zhang Yang carefully crafted made him feel not an ounce of regret for the money spent on gifts.

He nonchalantly opened WeChat, recharged, and added ten thousand RMB.

Soon, the hundred-yuan virtual luxury car gifts began a screen-filling spree in the livestream!

Eight cars make up one convoy, but what about a hundred cars?

Hard to describe, but even a seasoned veteran like Zhang Yang, who has witnessed many battles of rich patrons, was dumbfounded in that moment!

For a full minute, the public chat with over seven thousand people online was filled with special effect gift animations.

GaoDaBearBaby's personal account level skyrocketed from level one to level 15 with this wave of spending, the speed's incredible!

"Uh, thanks to big boss GaoDaBearBaby for the grand convoy spree!

Xiao Meng, a big boss has sent a series of one hundred luxury car convoys in the livestream, how should we respond?"

Zhang Yang didn't directly give orders but took the chance to interact with Meng Fan on camera.

With a boss capable of throwing around ten thousand in tips so easily, Meng Fan naturally wouldn't fail to respond smartly. With a quick turn of his eyes, he had an idea.

Meng Fan picked up the fish he hadn't yet released and displayed it again, speaking fluently: "Since big brother is so generous, how about we release a fish for good luck!

Taking advantage of the joyful spirit of releasing the fish, I wish big brother: Swift as wind on a propitious day, Prosperous year and month like wind arise, Increase in fortune, status, and longevity, Longevity like mountains and rivers eternal, Good fortune, prosperity, and noble descendants, Descendants and grandchildren bringing continuous glory year after year, May you always have talent, influence, and bright prospects."

Man, it turns out Meng Fan is not only clever, but he's got some serious verbal skills too, throwing in a Northeast folk saying on the spot.

This isn't something you can improvise, it's obvious he prepared beforehand. When he finished his recitation, the public chat blew up again!
