Livestreaming the Hunt

It seems to be the stage lighting of the program group!

We finally arrived in New Orleans. In front of us is Lake Pontchartrain, where the ESCI and Discovery Channel program teams are located!

Suddenly, the audience finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Oda Nagama also slowly slowed down the boat. When he reached the entrance of the lake, a light swept over and illuminated the fishing boat brightly. There were already seven or eight fishing boats parked in the lake, surrounding the temporary steel frame stage. On the stage stood the host, commentator, and contestants who had arrived early. There was a crane hanging next to them, on which they fished various river monsters, some two meters long, some three meters long. The helpers on the side also poured water on the live fish from time to time. Catch water to keep them alive.

There was a large circle of passers-by on the shore who came to join in the fun. They all had mobile phones in their hands and were filming videos.

In the sky, the photographer on the helicopter was holding a video recorder to focus on the fishing boat.

I saw Wang Kui wearing a gray waterproof sweatshirt and a peaked cap, standing on the front deck. His dark figure was stretched thin by the stage searchlight, and hidden under this black shadow was an orange parachute rope. Tied giant!

Wow!

On the big screen on the stage, the passers-by who saw this scene exclaimed in fright.

Even the fishermen in the lake opened their mouths with shocked expressions. How did he get such a big crocodile?

"Welcome our 9th runner to the finish line!"

On the stage, a blond host wearing a short-sleeved shirt said a welcome message while looking at the inscription board and introducing Wang Kui's group of contestants.

Arrive inside the lake.

A dozen people immediately gathered around, most of them were staff members in black clothes who came to help. This was the largest number of people the onlookers had ever seen. There was nothing they could do, just the four-meter-long crocodile. It has already scared many people.

But Wang Kui still saw Zhao Zhongheng, Rahman and Tifa at a glance.

Mainly because they were too conspicuous. After being eliminated, Rahman returned to his white robe outfit with a black woolen collar on his head. It made people feel noble at first glance, just like Tifa. Wearing a black gauze skirt and her face half-covered, only a pair of beautiful eyes are exposed, making it difficult for people not to notice.

"Awesome! I should be number one this time!"

Zhao Zhongheng smiled and took the recorder equipment hanging on Wang Kui's body.

"I don't know, the current player data has not been updated yet..."

He glanced at the representative trophies next to the contestants above and the poundage figures displayed on the crane behind him. It was indeed not as big as his alligator, but the largest did not mean everything. Many people caught too much. There is no way to show them one by one.

"That's amazing, my friend! Your collaboration with Oda Nagama is more exciting than an American blockbuster!!"

"The main reason is that Oda is so brave. When she pounced on me, I was also shocked!"

Wang Kui hugged Rahman who came over, and at the same time looked at Tifa with a look in his eyes.

"Hello, Mr. Wang Kui, please prepare with your deputy to go on stage to weigh in. The competition results will be announced soon!"

At this time, a staff member came over to remind me.

After hearing this, Wang Kui said goodbye to the three of them, and led Oda Nagama to the stage from the side. The front of the stage was a large screen, and the floor was covered with blue and white leather, with the North American ESCI logo and the partner's LOGO printed on it. Several groups of The contestants stood half a meter apart, with their trophies hanging from a wire next to them, pulled down from a crane hanging from the top of the stage.

For a moment, the spotlight was all on the two of them, but what really caught the attention of the onlookers was what was behind them.

Eight strong men, four on each side, carried the four-meter-long alligator on a stretcher like a coffin. As they walked up the steps, the crocodile swayed from time to time, making them unsteady. You can see its weight.

Is it alive? !

Many contestants on the stage had their eyes open and motionless, as if their acupoints had been tapped.

Before, they couldn't see clearly because they were too far away, and they couldn't watch the live broadcast on the Internet, so they didn't know the whole process. Furthermore, some people caught crocodiles on the stage, but without exception, they were all killed in advance. Those who boarded the boat now saw this 4-meter-long crocodile. They subconsciously thought that it was being hunted, but they did not expect that it would move when it was lifted up!

"This is the biggest alligator I've ever seen!"

The contestants were arranged in order of reaching the finish line. The host took the two to the position next to the ninth crane. The staff struggled to hang the straps on the crocodile's head on the crane.

Buzz buzz.

As the crane slowly rose, the giant crocodile continued to shake and struggle, scaring the contestants next to it and running away. Fortunately, the stage was an all-steel structure and the steel wires were solid. Otherwise, I would have been afraid of wandering around like this for a few times. The stage will collapse.

Until it is fully raised until the crocodile's tail is off the ground.

On the entire stage, Wang Kui's crane hook was the highest. At this time, the big screen behind him also displayed his data representing the spoils:

American alligator: length: 4.23 meters, weight: 1072.4 pounds.

The points will be calculated as 2.5 times the points for the competition exceeding 3 meters.

The red number at the bottom began to beat crazily until it became: 2681 pounds!

As soon as this number appeared, the atmosphere of the audience was once again ignited.

【Fuck! It is indeed an exaggeration! 】

[Sure enough, it’s close to half a ton, more than a thousand pounds, almost 480 kilograms! 】

[Lao Kui caught seven or eight crocodiles this morning, only weighing 3,000 pounds. This one is almost as big as seven! 】

[Unfortunately, the competition did not set bonuses of 3.5 meters and 4 meters. After all calculations, Lao Kui still lost! 】

[When I saw the numbers, I knew I was sure! 】

…

The audience in the live broadcast room felt excited when they saw the numbers skyrocketing. You must know that the numbers behind the other contestants were basically three digits, with only two starting with "1". The entire stage was uniform, with all foreign faces except Lao Kui. Two Asians like Oda Nagama, no doubt think they are very long-faced.

This is just like the sports field. Most competitive and physical sports have been dominated by blacks and whites for a long time. People like Liu Xiang, Su Bingtian, and Zou Shiming are rare.

Outdoor fishing can at least be regarded as a kind of sport. Wang Kui stood on the stage, and with this number, he represented the ESCI branch of China and brought glory to the country.

"Oh! As expected of you, Wang Kui! I have you!"

A few players away, Mayor whistled and clapped his hands to congratulate him. This kid's trophy was also a crocodile, a three-meter-long one. Compared with Wang Kui's, it was much inferior.

certainly.

When it comes to catching predators, luck cannot be ignored.

After waiting for another five minutes, as of 6 pm North American time, the host announced that the ranking competition was officially over. Except for Robertson who retired due to an accident midway, one player failed to reach the finish line.

[Hey guys, there are people who run out of gas halfway! 】

[I guess this player is anxious to death, right? If you catch too much again, hurry up! 】

[It looks like me in the exam room when I didn’t finish answering the papers! 】

…

Then, the red numbers on the big screen disappeared and were replaced by the points ranking list on the ESCI event page.

But what is different from what the audience saw at noon is that the points behind everyone are "0", which should be re-entered into the calculation from the first fish starting from the ranking competition. Of course, the heads of the two bottom players were Marked with a red cross, it proves that the result is invalid.

"The weigh-in begins!"

Following the host's order, the poundage points numbers behind all the contestants' avatars were jumping crazily, and the rankings among the contestants moved back and forth rapidly. Suddenly, Ambrolin's points soared by a large amount, and she instantly jumped to the third place. one and took an absolute lead.

Viewers know that this should be her advantage in hunting down a large number of crocodiles yesterday.

Three seconds passed, and one player's number suddenly stopped moving, stopping at the ninth position. The player next to Wang Kui who had just been scared to avoid it suddenly shook his head and sighed.

As time passed, the eighth, seventh, and sixth were all confirmed.

Only the top five numerical rankings are still in fierce competition.

Finally, fifth place appeared, Mayor.

The fourth place is a player from Canada.

After the remaining three players, the jump in points began to slow down gradually, but the jump numbers were very scary. Basically, they were hundreds and hundreds of jumps, which proved that the creatures they caught in the later period were not small.

At this time, Wang Kui's numbers began to skyrocket, surpassing Ambroli and taking first place. It should be the seven or eight crocodiles he hunted in the morning!

But the gap between the three parties was not big, and by the time the twenty-odd barracudas were recorded, the European player had already surpassed Ambrolin, and seemed to be about to surpass Lao Kui.

But in the blink of an eye, the points of the three of them skyrocketed at the same time.

Wang Kui's number suddenly increased by more than 3,000. When everyone else was still starting with "1", his total pound points suddenly exceeded the 20,000 mark, directly crushing the European players who wanted to catch up!

finally.

Statistics end!

Wang Kui, total poundage points: 20856.4 pounds!

When converted, it weighs more than 18,000 kilograms, nearly 9 tons!

Although the audience knew that this number was extremely high, because it included many multiplier rewards, and the half-ton crocodile alone accounted for more than 1.5 tons, they still couldn't help but say: The heifer is doing a handstand. So awesome!

"Let us congratulate Wang Kui and his deputy from the ESCI China Club for winning the first place in the 2022 ESCI North American Fishing King Competition!!"

With the impassioned voice of the host, all the spotlight was focused on the two people, and the surrounding crowd cheered. Many of them were fans who had watched the live broadcast and wanted to see Wang Kui's true face.

Yes, they are fans.

Since the scene of the two catching the crocodile with bare hands was seen by netizens on the Discovery Channel in the afternoon, what Wang Kui didn't know was that the entire YouTube video about him had been reposted like crazy.

Compared with traditional North American hunters, who either specialize in guns or bows, Wang Kui is like an all-around king, proficient in swords, guns and sticks, and is different from other hunters who upload hunting videos on YouTube. , Wang Kui will encounter poachers from time to time during his live broadcast.

Fist against fist, knife against knife, bullet against fire, it’s so exciting to watch.

If it weren't for the comments from Chinese netizens accompanying the live broadcast, they would have thought they were watching a novel or movie!

After the championship rankings are announced.

The head of the ESCI North American branch began to come on stage to present the awards. He was a slightly stout, bald, middle-aged man. However, when Wang Kui shook hands with him, he discovered that his mouth and index finger were covered with calluses, obviously from playing guns for many years. .

It seems that this person, like Chen Ang, was a hunter in the past, but now his focus is on management.

Later, Charles and Walton, who were the judges' commentators, came up to interview several outstanding contestants, especially Wang Kui.

He then shared some of his fishing techniques and ideas with everyone. Much of the knowledge was impressive to even former professional champions like Walton. This also proved that Wang Kui was indeed a well-deserved winner of the Fishing King Competition. champion.

After the awards and interviews were over, the competition was completely concluded. ESCI and the Discovery Channel program team began to organize the more than 80 contestants and deputy contestants to celebrate together.

"Congratulations, Lao Kui, 500,000 U.S. dollars! It's been distributed this time!"

After stepping off the stage, Zhao Zhongheng ran over excitedly with a recorder, "Look, Lao Kui, everyone in the live broadcast is congratulating you!"

"I saw it on my watch. Fortunately, I didn't disappoint my family. I got first place again. Cheers!"

Wang Kui "pretended" to face the camera and bowed to the water friends with fists in his hands.

【No, no! I can't bear it! 】

[Congratulations on this pussy! 】

[What am I saying? Once the 4-meter crocodile comes out, it will definitely be stable! 】

[Lao Kui: Oh, why did you get first place all the time? You are just pretending, hahaha! 】

[To be honest, I really want to see Lao Kui eating Oli during the live broadcast! 】

…

Seeing Wang Kui's "too serious" look, Tifa couldn't help but laugh, "Compared with the 500,000, the points are more important, right?"

"integral?"

Zhao Zhongheng only remembered the 500,000 US dollars, but not the points.

"800 Hunter Peak Tournament points is indeed a lot!"

Mentioning this, even rich people like Rahman showed a "covetous" look.

Wang Kui thought for a while.

Among the rewards for this game, there are indeed 800 peak competition points, and these 800 points are extra. In other words, the fish he caught are counted separately.

Don't underestimate these 800 points. Think about it, Wang Kui hunted so many animals before and only had a total of more than 2,000 points.

He took out his mobile phone and entered the peak ranking page.

The rewarded points have not yet arrived. Since the season is about to end, everyone is working hard to increase the points. He has been busy with Big Wolf Dog Island and Tiger Fish Annual Festival this month and has not done many tasks, so the points have not risen very fast. Even Ito Ryoichi, who was suppressed by him before, is almost catching up.

But the audience found out.

If Lao Kui gets this point, he will have a huge advantage, surpassing Japan's No. 1 Matamon hunter Shinzo Watanabe, who is ahead of him, and Liu Xian of Domestic Green Field!

That is to say.

Wang Kui now.

As if firmly ranked first in China, top three in Asia, and top 20 in the world!

2 in 1, please vote for me!
