Upon hearing the beautiful host call out his name, Zhang Yang confidently walked out from the crowd and stepped onto the podium.
As soon as he appeared, the audience erupted into noise.
Young, so young! No one expected the champion of a competition with over a thousand participants to be this young.
Being young is fine, but he's quite handsome too. How can anyone argue with that?
Lin Nianwei also noticed the commotion in the audience, but she maintained her composure on stage and didn't immediately react; she paused for a few moments instead.
Once the discussion quieted down a bit, Lin Nianwei jokingly said, "Is everyone excited because our champion is handsome?"
"In this regard, we all see eye to eye! I think so too!"
It was just a harmless little joke, and the audience burst into laughter immediately.
"Alright, may I ask everyone to be quiet for a moment! Let's get to know today's champion angler!"
Thanks to the earlier setup, the audience was very cooperative and quickly quieted down.
Seeing this, Lin Nianwei transitioned into her engagement with Zhang Yang smoothly!
"Hello again, Young Zhang! Maybe calling you this is a bit too forward, I hope you don't mind!"
Zhang Yang seemed quite unaffected by the novel title, responding with a steady smile: "It's fine, I think it's a nice name! It's just that back when I was in school, we didn't have classmates who were as pretty as the host!"
Lin Nianwei was taken aback!
Amazing, Zhang Yang started taking charge of the conversation just a few sentences into his appearance!
Lin Nianwei nodded slightly, smiling: "You're sweet, thank you for the compliment! Everyone doesn't know, but Zhang's first match score was weighed by Teacher Chen and me, a hundred pounds of fish, it was so heavy we couldn't move it, it was quite embarrassing!"
Zhang Yang: "The fishing conditions were thrilling indeed! Faster than what we usually have in competitive pools, deeper water, the fish were stronger as well!"
Seeing the rhythm of the conversation settle, Lin Nianwei continued to ask: "You're so young, perhaps the anglers in the audience don't know you well.
Seizing the opportunity of receiving an award on stage, could you introduce yourself to everyone and tell us about your fishing experience?
Winning with four perfect scores, your fishing skills must be top-notch! I'm sure everyone is interested in getting to know you!"
Hearing this question, Zhang Yang laughed.
It's like being handed a pillow when you want to sleep; bantering with a beauty can only gain a few verbal advantages, but using this chance to promote the brand and products is the real deal.
Unexpectedly, without any prior communication, the question asked was right up Zhang Yang's alley.
Zhang Yang nodded: "Of course, speaking on such an important occasion is a rare opportunity, so I'll take a bit of your time to chat casually!
My name is Zhang Yang, I'm from W City, Dongshan Province, 22 years old, and I've loved fishing since I was young, mostly enjoying wild fishing or black pit fishing.
A year and a half ago, fueled by passion, I opened a fishing tackle shop in my local town.
Later last year, I registered Mingyang Fishing Tackle Company, mainly producing exclusive patent product Xiaohuangmian, alongside Mingyang Tianxia series additives for black pit and competitive fishing!
This time, entering the grand river fishing competition, I specifically registered with my team; currently, our team of four is competing, and our scores are quite good.
Besides personally winning the championship, the fourth, ninth, and fourteenth places were won by anglers from our team!"
The initial words from Zhang Yang were typical and within Lin Nianwei's expectations, but afterward, Zhang Yang started deviating from the script.
Zhang Yang relied on his super thick skin to switch from personal introductions to hardcore advertising.
He wasn't just shamelessly promoting his company; he also backed it up with undeniably impressive results.
Winning could involve some luck, but having four people in the top fifteen is kind of terrifying as team performance.
The anglers participating in the grand competition, apart from some local hobbyists joining for fun, were mostly a group with relatively high fishing skills, who also were the main consumers of new products and fishing gear, many even working in related industries.
Suddenly, like a small bomb was tossed, the audience erupted into fierce discussion.
The anglers fiercely discussed below, and Lin Nianwei on stage was exceptionally surprised too.
Since the first match when Lin Nianwei first met Zhang Yang, she always thought he was a highly skilled lone wolf.
Who would have thought Zhang Yang not only excels in fishing but also opened a tackle shop, formed a tackle company, and joined the competition with a team!
In his early twenties, even younger than Lin Nianwei by a year, he already has his foundational career, while Lin Nianwei, as an outstanding girl, just graduated from university, this disparity made Lin Nianwei, despite her strong hosting skills, briefly disoriented.
"Wow, didn't expect you to register as a team participating! Four anglers all in the top fifteen, that's an impressive score!" Lin Nianwei quickly adjusted her mindset, agreeing with a sentence.
Zhang Yang nodded with a slightly modest tone: "Not too bad, when it comes to fishing farmed fish stocked for these events, I have some insights.
The bait and additives we use are particularly targeted for this kind of competition fish !
The stocking density in the river fishing contest was quite high, coupled with a little technique and luck, achieving such results comes from multiple factors!"
Zhang Yang cunningly added another soft advertisement, perfectly showcasing the benefit of having a thick skin.
