Third point, the broken expanded particles, some of them exhibit a dynamic effect of floating up and down once they enter the water. When more fish gather around the spot, this dynamic effect will stimulate the fish to scramble for food.

In actual fishing, you'll find that the snowball effect of a closed-mouth strike will be very serious. Once suppressed in the early stage, it may easily lead to a complete stop in bites, and the main angler will quickly turn into a spectator!

And one last point, if fishing in a pond that hasn't been cleaned for years and has a silt layer underwater, the advantage of being lightweight will be greatly manifested. The bait ball can float above the silt layer, and the biting action of the fish will be more solid!"

"Damn, when you put it that way, it really makes sense!"

With a face full of curiosity, Wang Yan, after Zhang Yang gave him a lesson, nodded in agreement, and the group gained a deeper understanding of the Yellow Storm bait.

After unraveling the mystery of Yellow Storm's effectiveness, the guys noticeably relaxed, gorged on food and drink, consuming four and a half crates of beer, eating from evening until past eleven at night, finally settling the bill and calling a designated driver to take them back home.

In the following days, Zhang Yang and Wang Yan purposefully or accidentally tried the new bait for a few days. Being smart people, after several practical tests with the bait, they gradually mastered the essence of using the Yellow Storm bait, greatly improving their fishing results.

While Zhang Yang's team was conducting the final practical test and small-scale trial of the Yellow Storm bait formula, on the other side, a new fishing bait brand called Baoding Little Yellow Bait suddenly rose to prominence, developing very rapidly in recent times.

The main product of this new fishing bait brand is the Little Yellow Powder, with a very high degree of restoration, and while the effects are excellent, the price is only a little more than half of the famous genuine Little Yellow Powder.

Yes, you didn't mishear, it's only a little more than half. Zhang Yang's side, the retail price of a one-pound pack of yellow powder bait is about 15 yuan, but Baoding Little Yellow Bait, with almost the same formula, retails for only eight yuan a pound.

It was Baoding Little Yellow Bait company that officially reduced the price of Little Yellow Powder from more than ten yuan to single digits for the first time.

A big five-pound pack sells for only forty yuan, paired with a set of three bottles of basic small medicine, retailing for 220 yuan in total.

At first glance, the price, sixty yuan for a bottle of medicine, and over two hundred for a set with yellow powder, isn't too cheap.

But compared to the same product pricing on Zhang Yang's side, it's much cheaper.

To put it this way, the product positioning of Baoding Little Yellow Bait is like a civilian version of the black pond bait small medicine set. Compared to a set price of over three hundred on Zhang Yang's side, it's extremely cost-effective.

At any time, ordinary customers are the most sensitive to price differences.

If there's a significant difference in effectiveness, they'll be willing to spend more. But if the effect is about the same, and the price is a third or even more cheaper?

No need to ask, of course, they'll go for the more cost-effective option.

If it were only like this, using a similar formula of yellow powder plus cost-effective small medicine to share a piece of the pie, Zhang Yang wouldn't be too concerned.

After all, he's not an original creator, just riding the advantage of a rebirth cheat, standing on the shoulders of giants.

However, this Baoding Little Yellow Bait, not sure what they were thinking, even released news on fishing forums and personal live streaming accounts, organizing a sponsorship contest event.

A battle on the pinnacle of the black pond, Baoding Little Yellow Bait Cup Jinghai Garden Black Pond Grand Prix!

As soon as the news came out, Wang Yan, who had been mingling in the circle, received the first-hand information from friends.

Wang Yan, clear-headed at a crucial moment, didn't do anything else and immediately registered by paying the four thousand yuan entry fee in his personal capacity. Just to secure the slots first.

Having secured the slots beforehand, Wang Yan then leisurely called Zhang Yang.

That day, Zhang Yang was training with the club of the competition team brothers when the phone rang.

"Hey, Brother Yan, any instructions?"

"Boss, Baoding Little Yellow Bait challenged us, the one selling the same formula yellow powder and similar taste medicine!

They are holding a battle on the pinnacle of the black pond, Baoding Little Yellow Bait Cup Black Pond Grand Prix at Jinghai Garden, run by Old Ma over there!

The competition date is this Saturday and Sunday, two rounds! The first prize is a hundred thousand yuan!

As soon as I got the news, I registered immediately and secured four slots! What do you say, wanna go play together?"

"Baoding Little Yellow Bait?" Hearing this name, Zhang Yang felt a momentary unease.

In the previous life, this miraculous black pond bait, Little Yellow Bait, was made by anglers from Baoding, Hebei, and it was also named Baoding Little Yellow Bait.

This lifetime, the concept and product of Little Yellow Powder were preempted by Zhang Yang, a rebirth person, so naturally, the other party lost the opportunity.

Unexpectedly, this company was unwilling to give up and produced a high cost-effective version, competing with Zhang Yang Company for the market.

Anytime a fishing tackle company spends money to sponsor a big competition, it's a very clear signal. It indicates they are using commercial promotion to enhance their brand recognition and influence.

If the key regions of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, the main consumer strongholds for Zhang Yang Company's black pond products, are completely occupied by others, the company's performance development will definitely be affected noticeably.

As the saying goes, how can you allow others to snore on your side of the bed?

With the trump card in hand, Zhang Yang can't possibly let this competitor develop robustly and capture his market share unchallenged.

Wang Yan did the right thing; facing such provocation, there's only one response: relying on strength, prove in the competition who is the true king.

Just because they developed an almost identical Little Yellow Powder, are they getting cocky? The upgraded version of the Yellow Storm will teach the imitators a solid lesson.

Wang Yan nodded: "Yes, that's the name! They are spending money to sponsor and organize a competition, so we'll go and fish a few rounds, let everyone know how many eyes Lord Ma really has!"

"Okay! That's settled! Four slots are a bit few, better register two more. Let's have YOYO and Xiaowei bring the streaming team as well!

We need to secure the competition results and not miss the public opinion flow. We need to do well on both fronts!"

"Otherwise, let Xiaofan and Han Dahu join too, it will be more lively with more people!" Wang Yan continued to suggest.

Zhang Yang shook his head: "Han Mocheng and the others are leaving on Friday, going to Yuncheng to catch the Category Four match, they can't make it in time! Just us few are enough, after Pikachu went fishing there last year, we haven't been to that side, it's a good opportunity to go play around!"

"Alright then, I'll register two more!"

"Okay!"

...

After hanging up, Zhang Yang took out a pack of White General, lit one up, and took a deep breath.

"Brother Yang, there's a competition at Jinghai Garden?" asked Xiaobao, sitting beside him, catching some information from Zhang Yang's conversation, and his black shiny eyes lit up with excitement.

When it comes to competitive platform fishing, Xiaobao's foundation is relatively weak, still in the learning and experience accumulation stage.

But when it comes to black pond fishing, especially in familiar spots like Jinghai Garden, Xiaobao still has quite a bit of confidence.

Zhang Yang nodded: "There are two days of competition this weekend at Jinghai Garden! I, Brother Yan, and the others have agreed to fish for two days, participate in the competition and incidentally shoot some video material!

You guys don't go, just follow the original plan, Old Han will lead the Category Four match!"

"Alright! Is there anyone to receive you? If not, I can call my uncle to meet you!" Xiaobao nodded, slightly disappointed.

"No need, all the main forces of the black pond community are involved, even your sister-in-law will bring people over! There are plenty of people, so let's not trouble your uncle!

Besides, this trip is to establish authority! The purpose is simple, seize this opportunity to make a big impact with the new Yellow Storm bait!"
