Most of Fatty Gao and other fishing friends took what Wang Jian said to be bragging. There were also a few fishing friends who also liked ice fishing to help Wang Jian prove that what he said was true. Everyone talked, laughed and drank tea, and the fishing gear shop became a
It is a small gathering place. Fishing friends who can chat with each other gradually become accustomed to coming here to sit and sit. Gradually, several small circles are formed, headed by Wang Jian, Old Man Liu and Old Man Fu.
Others still don't believe the deeds Wang Jian said, but Hong Tao knows that these are most likely true, because in his previous life, there were many teachers, experts everywhere, and countless masters in the fishing circle, but they all had them.
One thing in common is that they are all closely related to commercial competitions. Different fishing tackle manufacturers and bait manufacturers will bring out one or two teachers and masters, and then use them to launch their own products.
That situation is basically the same as what Wang Jian is currently saying. When beginners first enter the fishing circle, due to the asymmetry of information and lack of understanding of the sport of fishing, they often blindly pursue the same steps as these teachers and experts.
, they buy what they use, and they fish how they say. Little do they know that those experts and teachers don’t even buy anything with their own money. They are 100% endorsed by merchants, especially
In an environment where false advertising is everywhere in China, it is self-evident how credible these endorsements can be.
Zhuge Fei is still the same as before. After returning from the driving school, he goes to the fishing tackle shop or home to find Hong Tao. Then the two of them either cook something at home or go out to a restaurant. After eating, the two of them go to watch a movie.
, or go shopping in a shopping mall, or go home and watch TV on the sofa, just like a young couple.
Hong Tao is quite satisfied with his current living conditions. The business of the fishing gear shop is getting better and better. If it continues to develop in this way, there will be no pressure to recover costs. It is quite promising to earn hundreds of thousands a year; and personal problems are basically the same.
The relationship has been resolved. Although it is only in the love stage now, the relationship between the two parties is not bad. Zhuge Fei is not only gentle in temper, but also decent in dealing with others. Although he is a bit petty, in general he is a person who manages the household.
Desire is always accelerating as you move forward, as if you can never catch up with it. When he first came to this time and space, Hong Tao was still thinking about how to find a job so that he could live smoothly, and
After he opened the fishing gear shop, he thought that if he could run the fishing gear shop well, he would have a higher quality of life. Now that his career has improved and he has found a beautiful woman, he is beginning to feel dissatisfied again.
Hong Tao's dissatisfaction is not in business. He is already satisfied with the income of this fishing tackle shop. If it were not for those fish scales, he would still be working overtime in that building. As for expanding production and turning small businesses into
Hong Tao has really thought about turning workshop-style production into an industrialized assembly line, and then unifying the entire Chinese fishing bait market, thereby entering foreign countries, and defeating Japan's monopoly on fishing tackle and bait, etc., but he has no intention of doing it.
I was an ordinary person in my previous life, and I don’t plan to be an industry elite or the world’s richest man in this life. That thing is so tiring. I can eat, drink, play, have fun, have family and friends, and relax.
How wonderful it is to live a lifetime. When it comes to money, no one says that too much is bad, but more is too much? It all depends on everyone’s desires. As long as you let your desires go, there will be no end to this thing.
Even if you die of old age, you won't be able to fulfill your wishes.
Hong Tao's dissatisfaction is not in his love life. The kind of life in which he has dated college students and white-collar women, young models and female singers, and Chinese and foreign countries can only exist in his dreams. That kind of life would only exist in his 30s.
Hong Tao might have been a little excited before he was 40 years old, but now that he has lived forty years, he no longer has that thought.
There is a saying in Beijing that is very ugly, but very realistic. It describes the things between men and women: take X as food for the first three years, and hide from X for the next three years. The general meaning is that the human body is limited.
, and the great XX activities are unlimited. Even if you are talented, you can't help but use that sport as a living all day long. Therefore, Hong Tao's requirements for women are not high, as long as they can live a good life. Of course, if they come here every few years
Romantic encounters are more perfect, but most of them exist in literary works. You can think about them but you can't pursue them.
Hong Tao's dissatisfaction mainly lies in his hobby of fishing. He was busy making money to support his family in his last life. Although he has never given up this hobby, he has never been happy. He has rarely participated in fishing competitions.
I have never really been exposed to many fishing methods such as lures, streams, deep sea, etc., not to mention those European fishing grounds that every fishing enthusiast yearns for, Amazon River fishing, Great Lakes fishing, the Great Barrier Reef, New Zealand, Hawaii, etc.
Wait, Hong Tao has never been to any of them.
I originally thought that these paradises in dreams could only exist in dreams, but God saw that he looked pleasing to the eye and gave him another precious opportunity to choose. Therefore, Hong Tao decided not to let down God's kindness and to live in this new life.
, visit as many of these fishermen’s paradises as possible, and the beginning begins with the pond fishing competition.
Why start with a pond fishing competition? This kind of project, in which dozens of fishermen compete to catch artificially cultivated fish in an artificial pond the size of a basketball court, is closer to nature and more like fishing than what Hong Tao yearns for.
The contrast between the word sports and sports is too great. Does participating in these competitive fishing competitions have anything to do with Hong Tao's dream?
Hong Tao's answer is: It matters a lot.
If you want to go fishing in reservoirs and rivers across the country, the indispensable thing is the cost. Whether you go by car, train or plane, you have to pay for transportation. When you get to the local area, you can't just walk to the water's edge.
Usually places like this are far away from the city, and you have to rent a car, which is another expense.
Then you have to eat, drink, and live, which is another expense. Compared with these, the money actually spent on fishing gear and fishing is insignificant. This is only the cost of freshwater sport fishing in China. If you
If you want to go fishing in the sea, you have to buy a set of sea fishing equipment, and then you have to incur transportation expenses and rent a boat when you go out to sea. This cost is no cheaper than freshwater fishing.
In addition, China is a huge place. Many fishing spots are in the barren mountains and ridges, and many waters are not open to the public. If there are no familiar local people to receive them, it will be difficult to reach these places just relying on personal ability.
It is a difficult problem, let alone fishing. In addition, there are safety issues, understanding of fish conditions, obtaining information, and many other issues, which cannot be solved by Hong Tao alone.
The above are all very difficult to get around in China. If you want to go abroad and visit various continents, there will be even more problems. Language, supplies, visas, local tour guides, huge expenses, etc., this
There are so many things, let alone a small fishing gear shop like Hong Tao, it would be impossible to open two more fishing gear shops.
However, these problems that cannot be solved by Hong Tao himself can be solved in a simple and difficult way, which is to improve his reputation in the fishing world, and then use the sponsor model to complete Hong Tao's tasks one by one.
of these wishes.
What if you want to improve your reputation in the fishing world? The simplest, most authoritative and fastest way is to participate in various fishing competitions, and then get good rankings in the competitions. It doesn’t take much. After you become a significant champion, you will become
You will have those teachers and masters. At that time, you won’t have to look for them. Various sponsors will automatically come to you for endorsement. And Hong Tao can gradually complete his own career with the help of the financial resources and connections of these sponsors.
Dreamed.
In order to confirm whether his idea was out of touch with reality, after Hong Tao considered it maturely, he was the first to tell his plan to Fatty Gao and Wang Jian. These two people were the two people Hong Tao was most familiar with and trusted, and they
They have all been involved in different levels of society for many years, and it is very necessary to listen to their suggestions and understanding.
