Chapter 350 - 350 339 Dinner Invitation

350: Chapter 339: Dinner Invitation 350: Chapter 339: Dinner Invitation Compared to the high tension during the competition, the post-competition award ceremony was much more relaxed, with many people gathering in small groups, whispering, and chatting while waiting for the ceremony to begin, as more competitors steadily arrived.

“Over here, hey!!

Yue Feng, over here!!” From a distance, Yue Feng saw Zhao Zheng waving to him, with a few familiar faces nearby.

Yue Feng walked over with the child.

“Congratulations!

Double champion, I guessed right, you really took it this time!” Zhao Zheng excitedly said.

Yue Feng scratched his head, “Hehe, just lucky!

You deserve half of the medal!”

“Regardless of luck or skill, as long as you win, it’s worth celebrating.

Later tonight, I’ll introduce you to a few buddies, we can all have a drink together, right?” Zhao Zheng, not disheartened at all by his own disqualified result, once again brought up the invitation to Yue Feng.

“Sure, no problem!

I’ll treat tonight since I won the prize!” Yue Feng glanced at the child and agreed without hesitation.

The rest of the award ceremony was rather dull, with the event committee’s leaders briefly speaking before the top ten winners received their prizes in reverse order.

Earlier, Yue Feng had specifically checked Zhao Zheng’s score, knowing that if it hadn’t been for standing up for him, Zhao Zheng’s result would likely have been around the eighth or ninth place.

However, his result was marked as disqualified, which meant he lost at least five hundred dollars in prize money and any certificates.

Soon, the award ceremony was drawing to a close, with only the champion left to be announced.

The host, looking at a simple script, said, “Next, please welcome the champion of this river fishing competition, the young angler Yue Feng, to the stage to receive his prize!”

Hearing his name, Yue Feng looked up and walked briskly towards the stage.

“Wow, our champion is quite the handsome young man!

How about you wave to everyone in the audience?” The host feigned surprise as he exclaimed when Yue Feng reached the stage.

“Hello everyone, I’m Yue Feng!

The hostess flatters me, I don’t deserve such praise!” Yue Feng humbly said, standing neither too high nor too low.

“With the heaviest total weight and the heaviest single catch securing the double championship, it’s surely not just luck.

Our new champion is also quite modest!

How about a few words for your victory speech?”

Yue Feng nodded, “Alright!

First, I’d like to thank the event planners and organizers for arranging such a wonderful competition!

The fishing conditions were excellent both days, making it a memorable and enjoyable contest!

Next, thank you to the staff who worked quietly behind the scenes to ensure the competition ran smoothly, enduring temperatures above thirty degrees to maintain order, you all worked hard!

Lastly, thanks to all the participating anglers.

During the two days of the competition, I learned a lot, which greatly helped in honing and improving my fishing skills.

Anglers around the world are like one big family, and I hope you will all take the opportunity to visit us in W city!”

After a bit of live broadcasting, this impromptu victory speech posed no difficulty for Yue Feng, who delivered clichés effortlessly, with clear and well-organized thoughts, something even professional hosts could barely match.

“Well spoken, now let’s have Director Liu from the Dongyang City Government Office present our champion with the prize money and trophy!”

Shortly after, a portly middle-aged man in a suit came onto the stage, accompanied by two workers carrying a check model.

Yue Feng respectfully shook hands with the other party and then received the prize money and trophy!

At such a significant moment, a kid in the audience took out his phone and shot a short video, then snapped several more photos of the award presentation before stopping.

The rewards for this river fishing competition were very generous, with the champion receiving a hundred thousand yuan, and an additional twenty thousand for the big fish list, totaling 120,000 yuan.

After deducting a twenty percent tax, it amounted to just under a hundred thousand yuan in hand.

With the award ceremony concluded, this competition was considered perfectly finished.

Aside from some minor incidents, Yue Feng made a very lucrative gain.

In addition to cash rewards and trophies, winning the championship also gained him an extra 320 points of CAA competition Points; not long ago still a novice, Yue Feng, after two championships, had his Total Points rise to 640, getting even closer to the 4500 points rating threshold.

After stepping down, Yue Feng had a brief interaction with the staff and then left with the kid.

“Where are we going next, you big meanie?” the kid asked curiously, holding Yue Feng’s hand tightly.

Yue Feng frowned slightly, “First back to the hotel to rest for a while, then we’ll have dinner with Zhao Zheng this evening.

Tomorrow morning we’ll head home, and I’ll take you to see my little nesting place at my shop!”

“Okay!

You’re not mad at me for losing my temper during the live stream, are you?” the kid’s voice got quieter as he spoke, like a child who had caused trouble.

Yue Feng pursed his lips, recalling the faces of two lechers Zhao Zhe and Chen Chen in his mind, “You did the right thing, I’m not mad at you!

What’s done is done.

If that fatso dares to mess with you again, I’ll make sure he regrets it!”

“I knew you wouldn’t be mad at me!

Let’s go, let’s go, we won so much prize money, I want to eat ice cream.

We’ve got money now, let’s get the most expensive one from the snack bar, the Yili with four rings!”

Yue Feng smiled and naturally rubbed the kid’s nose, “Alright, I’ll take you to buy some.

Don’t worry about eating too much and getting a stomachache, I’ll make sure you’re well-fed!”

Back in the car, Yue Feng hurried back to the hotel they were staying at.

On the way, he also called Zhao Zheng to arrange a meeting at six in the evening, to find a place to gather!

Yue Feng, having won the championship, was extremely elated, but Zhao Zhe and Chen Chen were feeling very uncomfortable, especially Zhao Zhe, who had been slapped twice on the face, causing one side of his face to swell up.

He sat in the passenger seat, silent and visibly dejected, during the ride back to the hotel.

“Damn it, the guy who hit me is named Zhao Zheng.

I’ve memorized his name.

I’ll get him if he ever steps on our turf, and I’ll see how I’ll deal with him then.

This grudge is settled!” Zhao Zhe harbored a deep resentment towards Zhao Zheng, who shared his surname.

Chen Chen glanced at Zhao Zhe out of the corner of his eye and reassured him, “Chill, we’ll get our chance to hit back!

Let me tell you something.

That Yue Feng who won the championship today accidentally shared a fishing bait recipe with me, using goat feces and young boy’s urine mixed with bile.

You wouldn’t believe how strong the scent is, but it’s great for attracting fish!

I plan to get some and try it out when we get back!

Are we packing up and heading back now, or first thing tomorrow morning?”

Zhao Zhe, examining his swollen face in the rearview mirror, said, “Let’s leave tomorrow.

My face is severely swollen; it might go down by tomorrow.

It’s embarrassing enough, and if people at home see this, I wouldn’t be able to explain it!”

“Alright!

Let’s head back to the hotel to rest for now, and go out for dinner tonight.

Tomorrow we’ll head back.

I heard the whole lamb here in Dongyang City is excellent.

Let’s try it tonight; my treat, I’ll make it up to you!”

“Deal!”
