28: Chapter 28 No Experience 28: Chapter 28 No Experience As Yue Feng’s fishing equipment store became more and more famous, Liu Mingyuan’s shop began to lose many of its regular customers.
The other shop had reliable and magical bait that increased the catch rate, while old Liu’s store only had the common commercial bait available on the market; the outcome of the competition was as one might expect.
A few days ago, Liu Mingyuan had Black Tiger scope out the situation, but he didn’t obtain any valuable information.
However, before long, he was given a good lesson by Yue Feng by the riverbank.
Afterward, he got a bag through someone’s help and was surprised by how effective it was at attracting fish.
Only then did he begin to take it seriously.
He figured out why the bait worked so well, but it still wasn’t any use; it looked ordinary, yet it performed way better.
Liu Mingyuan couldn’t procure the same product and had to let his wife discount the goods in the shop to at least regain some of the customers.
Rice Wine Liu Mingyuan himself couldn’t produce nor had the supply channels for it, but it did reveal a benefit to him—using Yue Feng’s bait for laying a bait bed and then live-streaming the fishing.
What’s the biggest fear of live-streaming fishing?
Of course, it’s not catching any fish during the stream.
No matter how eloquently you speak, not catching fish is just blabber,
No matter which kind of fish you’re aiming for, as long as they bite and you can keep catching without interruption, there will be viewers who like watching,
Exaggerating protection or the Air Force preaching logic; the audience has long been tired of such approaches.
Through two live-streaming sessions, Liu Mingyuan tasted quite some sweetness and managed to showcase some products in his live room due to the increased catch.
This pleasantly surprised him, as if he had found a way to solve his current problems.
That’s why recently, he’s been live-streaming more frequently.
The next afternoon, Yue Feng arrived at the Wangjiazhuang river section as usual, but as soon as he parked his car, he found that the fishing spot he used yesterday was already taken by someone who was also live-streaming.
As Yue Feng walked up to take a look, he saw that it was the well-known internet star Liu Mingyuan.
“Yo, Brother Liu, what time did you get here?” Yue Feng asked with a slight smile, greeting him.
Liu Mingyuan was interacting with friends in the live room and gave Yue Feng a nod as a greeting when he looked back at him.
Yue Feng didn’t know him well and just considered it a polite nod to an acquaintance.
Since the other party was busy with the live stream and didn’t have time to pay attention to him, Yue Feng didn’t make a fuss and started looking for a fishing spot to set up and start his own live stream.
As Yue Feng was assessing potential spots, he noticed a significant change in the scenery in front of the regular fishing positions; much of the area appeared grey.
The spot where Liu Mingyuan was currently situated didn’t have any color in front, similar to the area directly in front of the plow tip, but that place was already taken.
Could this be the effect of Basic Fishing Position Selection?
Yue Feng didn’t rush to choose a fishing spot but instead started to observe and reflect.
The description in the Basic Fishing Position Selection skill allowed anglers to identify primary zones with few or no fish.
The grey area in front of the fishing spot he saw must correspond to the few or no fish zones mentioned in the skill.
Yue Feng glanced at the fishing spot he randomly chose beneath his feet, which also appeared grey.
He shook his head immediately and walked over towards the plow tip.
The three best fishing spots at the plow tip location were already taken, but there was an available spot on the left side towards the river bend close to the plow tip’s front end.
This spot didn’t appear grey, indicating it was a fish-active area.
No, come join me, the spot over there is a bit shallow!” At that moment, a fellow angler he recognized called out to Yue Feng.
Yue Feng grinned and replied, “Thank you, but there’s no trouble.
I’m starting a live stream, and being too close will disturb your fishing.
I’ll just pick a random spot to have some fun!”
“Oh, I see, you’re doing a live stream now?
I’ll drop by when I have time!”
“Seafood Live, I just started one.
I’m new to this!” Yue Feng replied as he began to prepare for fishing with swift and skilled movements.
The fellow angler mentioned that the water was shallow, so Yue Feng set up his fishing platform, mixed the bait, prepared the groundbait, and adjusted his line.
He was ready to go before long.
Everything was ready, and Yue Feng started the livestream at 12:10 PM.
Drone livestream fishing, Yue Feng takes you to witness explosive protection!
Currently in the novice stage, his popularity was quite low, so Yue Feng had to play up the selling points in the title of his livestream room.
No sooner had the livestream started than people began to join in.
The first few were IDs he somewhat remembered from the day before.
Maybe they had set a reminder for when the livestream starts.
“Hahaha, first one here!”
Yue Feng slightly adjusted the drone camera angle and began his opening remarks, “Thanks, everyone, for watching my livestream!
Today’s the second show, continuing with the fishing livestream for you all!”
“How long since you cast the line?
Have you started fishing yet?”
“When’s the draw today?”
“Damn it, I set an alarm for this.
Watching your live fish catching at noon yesterday made me late for work in the afternoon!”
“The draw will be held after the livestream room gets more popular.
I’ve just arrived at the fishing spot not too long ago.
If it’s your first time in my livestream, please follow me, and for those familiar faces, please help share as usual!
Thank you, everyone!”
Yue Feng organized his opening remarks with still quite an enthusiastic voice, but since there were so few people in the room, there weren’t many responses.
After an awkward chat with a few familiar anglers from the day before, the room gradually fell silent.
Although the atmosphere in yesterday’s livestream was quite good, after today’s start, it didn’t continue yesterday’s brilliance.
It was as if a passionate crowd had suddenly calmed down.
Yue Feng was just a newbie host and didn’t know where the problem lay.
He only instinctively felt that today’s vibe was a bit off.
However, he had just set up his bait, and the area around it was eerily quiet, with no sign of fish activity.
About five minutes later, the audience that remained in the room started to become impatient.
“No bites here, I’m out!”
“Boring, better to watch Liu Mingyuan fish.
He’s getting constant bites!”
After ten minutes since the livestream started, Yue Feng was frustrated to discover that the audience of more than fifty people from yesterday’s room had dwindled to a sparse ten or so, and the number was still decreasing.
“Host, this isn’t working.
If there are no bites in a fishing livestream, then what’s there to watch?
People are gonna leave soon!” an ID named Cockroach888 left a message in the room.
“Hehe, it’s my lack of experience in hosting.
Thanks for the reminder, bro.
But since I’ve already started the livestream, it doesn’t make sense to stop and start over.
Just wait a little longer, the bait has been laid down, the baiting will happen soon!”
After this reminder from the viewer, Yue Feng quickly realized where his problem lay.
Although yesterday’s start was somewhat successful, it didn’t mean he had the right formula for starting a livestream.
It was only because he utilized a drone to broadcast and encountered a generous viewer who gifted him that they made it through the awkward period before the fish started biting.
Yue Feng started thinking rapidly in his head.
