Liu Xingyun is focused on making the company's foundation healthier and its growth stronger.

As for Wang Henan, the founder? He doesn't think the same way.

Wang Henan is a pure businessman. In his eyes, the company is just a money-making business.

As for future development, it's not important.

Taking advantage of the current trend, as long as he keeps selling big dreams to investors to attract investment and expand the company, he can choose the right time to cash out and leave completely once it goes public!

How the company will make a profit in the future or how its business model will monetize is not a concern for Wang Henan. He just needs to ride the trend and cash in his entrepreneurial achievements to consider himself successful!

Liu Xingyun's words made Wang Henan feel subtly apprehensive.

If this material was handed to someone else instead of him, particularly any of the major investors, the follow-up investments would surely be thoroughly re-evaluated and scrutinized!

He needs to thoroughly investigate Liu Xingyun. Approaching him this way is very suspicious. Only by understanding his true situation and what's up his sleeve can Wang Henan take targeted steps for his next move.

...

While Liu Xingyun and Wang Henan had their own agendas, Zhang Yang's second live stream began!

The day after the first showcase, the new batch of large fish species ordered by Zhang Yang was delivered to the reservoir right on schedule.

The previous fish release wasn't live-streamed, but this time Zhang Yang took the opportunity to do a short live stream.

"Hello, hello! Friends in the live stream room, hello everyone, I'm the fishing streamer Zhang Yang!

This spontaneous broadcast is to bring you something different!

Today we're not fishing; instead, we're live-streaming the release of fish!

After our last broadcast, our team reviewed the live stream's situation and unanimously decided to stock the reservoir with large fish species to better provide everyone with an impressive live stream experience!

The fish truck just called me; they've exited the highway and will arrive shortly! While we wait for the fish, if you have anything you'd like to know, feel free to ask in the public chat!"

[Releasing big fish? How big? How many pounds?]

[Didn't the last stream mention they released some 20-30 pound black carp and grass carp? Why are we releasing more fish?]

[How big are the individual fish being released this time? What species?]

[What's the total number of fish? I hope this isn't a ploy to overstock the reservoir. If it's like the last stream, real fishing relies on skill and technique for good catches. Stocking is fine, but if it becomes like catching fish in a barrel, it won't be much different from fishing in a pay-to-fish pond!]

Zhang Yang scanned through the public chat and said with a smile, "It seems you all have quite a few questions about the fish release, so let me answer them one by one!

First, regarding the species and density, the main species are black carp and grass carp.

The grass carp are over 25 pounds, the largest is 50 pounds, and the total weight is about 1,500 pounds.

The black carp range from 30 to 80 pounds, and their total weight is also 1,500 pounds!

It sounds like a lot, but in terms of the number of fish, we might have less than a hundred fish per 3,000 pounds!

Considering the size of the reservoir, this increase in density hardly affects the fish's feeding patterns!"

[Oh my gosh! Such big fish! Is the host planning to break records in the next live stream?]

[Here in the northeast, we have big sturgeon farms. Bring in a hundred-pound sturgeon to try out!]

[A hundred or so fish are acceptable! Even doubling that number, you wouldn't see much difference in such a large reservoir!]

[When's the next live stream? After the last one, I dreamt about bobber bites all night and got woken up by my wife for jumping out of bed in excitement!]

Zhang Yang continued with a smile, "The next live stream is tomorrow. After the fish release, we'll do a live broadcast of baiting, starting at 7 AM sharp. Don't miss it, brothers!"

As they were chatting, the roar of the fish transportation truck's engine resounded at the edge of the village. Zhang Yang glanced back, took a few quick steps, and said, "Our fish have arrived! Let's go and meet them halfway!"

Soon, the fish truck pulled into the reservoir's yard, and a middle-aged man wearing a leather apron stepped out of the driver's cabin.

"Brother Old Li, was the journey smooth?" Zhang Yang swiftly took out a cigarette to greet him.

"Everything went smoothly, given that you trust me with this. I'm obliged to handle it properly for you!

Knowing you like big fish, I specifically coordinated with the local fish economy and drove the truck right to the pond to pick for you! These are all strong and healthy big fish! The smallest is at least 30 pounds!

Shall we release the fish now or wait a bit longer?"

Master Li, the fish transporter, subtly signaled to Zhang Yang while speaking, clearly indicating the ongoing live stream and whether releasing the fish now was convenient.

Zhang Yang lit his lighter to light the other's cigarette and said, "Now is fine. The live stream is to show the fish release to our viewers! You mentioned there are big ones, which makes me all the more excited!"

"I guarantee you'll be satisfied after watching, two big fellows are alone in compartment three. The boss refused to sell them as bulk, hoping for a high price individually. I bartered them down, got them at the same price as the others! Didn't cost extra!"

Old Li spoke proudly, deeply puffing his cigarette.

"Big fellows? How big?" Zhang Yang asked with interest.

The third small compartment in the truck is relatively small but can still hold 500 pounds of carp. Giving two fish a separate space is quite a high treatment.

"Curious? If you're curious, I'll hold the live stream tripod, and you can climb up for a look!

Such big fish must be sedated before release, or they'll injure themselves, and won't survive in the pond!"

Old Li said as he climbed onto the top of the fish compartment using the handrails nearby with swift movements.

"Alright, let's take a look! Thanks for giving me a hand!" Zhang Yang willingly handed up the live stream phone stand!

Quickly, Zhang Yang followed Old Li's posture, climbing to the top of the fish compartment.

Old Li opened the top hatch, revealing the inside of the fish compartment!

Despite having mentally prepared himself, Zhang Yang was still stunned at the sight of the fish.

My goodness, two big fellows, one slightly longer by seven or eight centimeters, the other slightly shorter, but judging by their girth and body shape, they're basically in the same league.

The position of these two fish in the fish compartment was amusing, staying at the middle of the diagonal of the rectangular fish compartment, leaving only about twenty centimeters of space outside their heads and tails.

Zhang Yang aimed the camera at the fish compartment for a panoramic view: "How about it, folks? The big fellows we're releasing this time have decent sizes, right?"

[Gosh! Such big fish!]

[Is this black carp? This thing must weigh a ton, right? Over 100 pounds?]

[They say black carp have a stone in their throats; how big would that stone be in such a massive fish?]

[At least 100 pounds it seems! This size, what a thrill! If someone caught it, they'd be dragged into the water!]

Zhang Yang barely contained his excitement and awe as he asked, "Was it weighed when you brought it? How big are these two fish?"

Old Li proudly responded, "The smaller one is 97 pounds, and the bigger one is 106 pounds! They had to be sedated, then lifted by two people on a stretcher! We'll have to release them the same way later!"

After Old Li announced the weights, the live stream audience collectively gasped.

Two nearly hundred-pound black carp, they're the undeniable treasures of the reservoir now!

"Perfect, fantastic! If we catch such big fish on the live stream, it might even go viral!" Zhang Yang couldn't help but exclaim.

"Let's see the fish in the other two compartments! Handling big fish isn't easy, so I loaded them separately as much as possible! So we'll add sedatives now and release them one by one!"

As they spoke, the covers of the other two compartments were opened again!

The fish compartments were full of large fish, easily seventy to eighty centimeters long or even longer!

However, after seeing the two massive ones, the impression of the rest of the fish was less impactful. Anyone catching one of these on a normal fishing day would have enough bragging rights to last a lifetime.
