Chapter 370 - 370 359 Fishing Rod Production Workshop

370: Chapter 359: Fishing Rod Production Workshop 370: Chapter 359: Fishing Rod Production Workshop “Instructor Yang, what do you consider good enough when you talk about ‘talent’?

How do we know if we’ve made the cut?” Just then, Qin Hu, who had been quiet, took the initiative to ask.

Qin Hu’s question wasn’t just idle chit-chat; he really had something on his mind.

Having battled his way through the Taiwan fishing competitive scene for over two years, he’d achieved various successes, but whenever he had the chance to compete against teams from other major groups, he invariably found himself hopelessly outmatched.

Attending this training camp, he wasn’t without the notion of seeking shelter under a bigger tree to enjoy the shade.

Yang Wenjian glanced at Qin Hu but didn’t answer directly.

Instead, he vaguely replied, “Each person’s situation is different, and the standard isn’t fixed.

However, generally speaking, there are two overall aspects: a highly self-disciplined attitude is necessary, as well as an extremely flexible and adaptable mind!

In the coming phases of the training camp, there will be performance scores for each stage.

If you’re interested, excel in all the assessment-related tasks, and you’ll qualify!”

No sooner had he finished speaking than a system notification once again popped up in Yue Feng’s mind!

Ding!

The following plot mission [Stand Out from the Crowd] has been automatically triggered.

[Stand Out from the Crowd]: In the various assessments during the rest of the training camp, each task will be scored based on final performance.

The system will deem the mission complete when the total score exceeds a certain value.

The overall evaluation score is the main criterion.

The higher the score, the better the mission reward!

Mission Reward: Unknown.

Failure Penalty: Randomly decrease one level of the host’s learned Taiwan Fishing Skill!

Well, here comes the next plot mission – it’s automatically triggered without Yue Feng having to accept it.

What’s more terrifying is the penalty for failing the mission: a random decrease in skill level, and if a skill like Master Level Hook Binding were to be downgraded, Yue Feng would be crying in the bathroom.

“All right, students, our visit to the Hall of Honor ends here.

Next stop, we’re heading to the fishing rod production workshop, a place of interest for many of you!”

Seeing that everyone had almost finished their tour, Yang Wenjian called out and led everyone out of the hall, heading straight to the second-floor fishing rod production workshop.

Yue Feng was still following at the back of the group, but on his phone’s public channel, a new discussion had started.

“Wow!

The conditions Instructor Yang mentioned don’t seem too hard!

Our Brother Feng will surely meet them!”

“I think there’s a chance too.

I glanced over the upcoming training camp’s itinerary, and many things Brother Feng has shared in the live stream room.

He should have no problem getting high marks in the assessments!”

“Brother Feng is awesome; he’s definitely going to nail it!”

Although the viewers’ comments contained a bit of blind worship for Yue Feng, it was more about absolute trust in Yue Feng’s abilities.

For example, from the training camp’s next sessions that were distributed last night – basics like hook tying, line attaching, bait matching, introductory medications, fundamental casting, and so on – Yue Feng indeed had the skills to score full marks.

Yue Feng didn’t directly respond to this issue, but instead gave a grin: “Alright, guys, let’s not blindly speculate with optimism.

These are top fishermen from all across the country we’re dealing with.

There’s always someone better out there, so let’s just focus on doing our part!

Next, we’re heading to the Hua Clan’s second-floor fishing rod production workshop, where I’ll show everyone how a fishing rod is made from start to finish!”

The expansion of social media networks has brought many behind-the-scenes aspects into the limelight.

For instance, the production process of a fishing rod has been shared on various operating accounts.

However, the production of Hua Clan’s fishing rods is a first for the whole network.

“Isn’t it common knowledge that Hua Clan’s fishing rods are OEM produced in Weihai?

There’s even a detailed description of the subcontracting factory.

Could it be they have their own production workshop just for show, only for visits?”

“The thing mentioned upstairs, I’ve also heard many people talking about it, but since Instructor Yang dares to openly take people on a tour, they probably wouldn’t deceive us, right?

We’re not stupid!”

Yue Feng couldn’t respond to this kind of skepticism, so he remained silent for the moment and followed the main group up to the second floor.

When the door to the workshop was pushed open, the doubts aired on the public channel in the first few seconds were automatically resolved.

Huge!

It was incredibly large!

The entire second-floor production workshop was open without any partitions except for necessary supporting structures, with different process workers and dozens of machines operating in order.

At a glance, just this one workshop covered an area of at least a thousand square meters.

At this point, Yang Wenjian continued, “Before 2010, our Hua Clan was only responsible for the research and development of the fishing rods, and indeed we had our brother factories help with OEM production.

However, our company has very high quality control requirements for the details of the fishing rods, and the quality control is very strict.

Back then, many complications arose from these minor issues.”

Seeing this, the old master made a sweeping decision and immediately set up the current Taiwan Fishing carbon fishing rod production line.”

Now, all the fishing rods from Hua Clan are made 100% in this industrial park factory, passing through at least 35 procedural inspections before they enter the secondary market of our distributors!

Next, let’s start from the very beginning and see how a fishing rod is made, beginning with the cutting of carbon cloth!”

Under Yang Wenjian’s guidance, everyone soon arrived at the cloth-cutting stage.

In front of a machine similar to a weaving loom, workers laid out carbon fiber paper evenly and then cut it into sections of carbon cloth according to a fixed design.

The cut carbon cloth, one side attached to a paper backing, moved onto the next process where different sections of carbon cloth were pieced together in a set pattern and attached to pre-made stainless steel molds.

With a gentle roll in front of the rolling machine, the molds were transformed into black carbon fiber tubes, and then workers placed molds of the same size into the oven, set the temperature and other parameters, and began the baking and shaping process.

The subsequent processes included wrapping tape, painting, coating, affixing various patterned logos, applying exterior varnish, and after a series of steps, a finished section of a fishing rod was constructed.

“Damn, it’s my first time seeing how fishing rods are actually made; no wonder they’re so expensive, the process looks so complicated!”

“Complicated might not be the word for it, but have you guys seen the carbon cloth that Hua Clan uses for their fishing rods?

The printed text reads SVF-grade Toray carbon cloth, and it seems like the workers just brought it out from the cold storage!”

“I saw that too.

No wonder the fishing rods are pricey.

Toray’s imported SVF-grade carbon cloth is actually used by brands for their rods!”

“Could the boss upstairs explain what this code means?

Or Yue Feng, you could tell us, right?”

“I’m completely confused, same question here.

Yue Feng, please explain to us!”

Yue Feng knew about this kind of basic knowledge regarding fishing rod materials, so he began to explain, “I happen to know a bit about this, so let me share what I know!”
