Who taught you to be a celebrity like this?

As the tide receded, Li Ye quickly surfaced again, blowing his nose and spitting out the mud and sand in his mouth.

The waves of the Qiantang River are indeed powerful.

He became increasingly excited.

The current momentum is already quite good; it will be even more spectacular on the day of the exhibition match.

He absolutely has to get a spot in the exhibition match!

Li Ye climbed back onto the jet ski full of energy, ready to have Zhang Hai take him to chase the next wave, when he noticed another jet ski approaching.

"Yay! Good good!"

The foreign evaluator gave Li Ye a thumbs up and kept talking.

What is that foreigner mumbling about...? Li Ye's English is only so-so, and the foreigner speaks extremely fast, with loud running water, making it very difficult for him to understand.

I can only barely tell that what the other person said was nice.

Fortunately, Zhang Hai, who used to surf abroad frequently, understood: "He said your basic skills are very solid. It's already quite good that you can do this well on your first time in the Qiantang River. He reminded you that you will be hit by the impact the moment you take off, so you should lower your posture immediately..."

Li Ye nodded in realization and gave the foreign evaluator a thumbs-up.

Then, Zhang Hai twisted the accelerator and took Li Ye to chase the next wave.

......

On the shore, Luo Jiashu and his group had not yet left, observing Li Ye's situation through binoculars.

Every time Li Ye fell into the water, his heart sank a little more.

He even hoped that Li Ye could participate in the exhibition match, more than Li Ye himself did.

Luo Jiashu put down his binoculars and his eyes met those of a passerby not far away.

Suddenly remembering something, he didn't immediately turn his gaze away, but instead smiled and nodded to the other person.

These passersby are college students who don't have classes today.

They all got into surfing because of Li Ye, and when they learned that a master was training on the Qiantang River today, they came all the way here to watch.

The college students had only been there a short time when they noticed Li Ye being followed and filmed by two motorboats, and the more they looked at him, the more familiar he seemed.

Being handsome is not just a feeling, but also an impression.

Whether surfing or skiing, Li Ye's movements possess a unique aesthetic beauty.

In addition, these college students often watched his surfing videos, so even though they couldn't see him clearly from two or three hundred meters away, they still recognized him immediately, but they couldn't confirm it.

"That person even nodded at me; they seemed easy to talk to. Should we go over and ask them?"

After saying this, the college student who had made eye contact with Luo Jiashu immediately walked over and pointed in Li Ye's direction: "Excuse me, is that person Li Ye?"

Finally, he came to ask. Not bad, college students these days are quite outgoing... Luo Jiashu raised his index finger and put it to his lips: "Shh, that's right, he is Li Ye."

Several college students were visibly excited, looking at the binoculars in Luo Jiashu's and the others' hands.

Luo Jiashu noticed this scene, but didn't say anything.

Li Ye seems to be a little unaccustomed to the water conditions at the moment.

Suddenly, a college student pointed excitedly at the water and shouted, "Look, look!"

Luo Jiashu quickly raised his binoculars to look and found that Li Ye was already standing on the crest of the wave.

Suddenly, he rushed to the bottom and made another turn, as if drawing a perfect U on the wave wall.

"Ouch!"

Seeing Li Ye fall into the water while making continuous S-shaped movements again, everyone expressed their regret.

"Will Li Ye also participate in this surfing exhibition competition?" a college student asked excitedly.

Luo Jiashu shook his head and said, "It's not confirmed yet."

"So that means it's possible?"

When pressed for answers, Luo Jiashu simply gave a mysterious smile.

When Li Ye returned to shore, the college students were still there.

Noticing several bright eyes, Li Ye stopped picking the sand out of his hair and asked, "Want to take a picture together?"

"May I?"

"Don't you dislike taking photos and signing autographs with fans?"

Hearing one of them say that, Li Ye smiled and asked, "So we're not filming anymore?"

People always change, and he had long realized that he didn't need to be so extreme, especially since it was a chance encounter in private.

It was during the time when Li Ye was taking photos with the university students.

Luo Jiashu whispered a few words to the foreign evaluator, then his eyes lit up instantly. After the college students waved goodbye and left, he immediately walked towards Li Ye.

Li Ye was still picking at the sand hidden in his hair.

Suddenly, Luo Jiashu said happily, "Aye, the evaluator said you can participate in the exhibition match."

"what?"

Li Ye thought he was hallucinating because sand had gotten into his ear.

Seeing Luo Jiashu nod again, he was certain he hadn't misheard.

Li Ye thought back and realized that his initial performance was okay, but the wave patterns here were really unpredictable, and his performance on the waves was not stable.

He noticed that most of the other people were performing no worse than him.

"This..." Li Ye hesitated, unsure of what to say.

He certainly wanted to participate in the exhibition match, even without CCTV's live broadcast or a large audience.

Because the tide that day was the biggest of the year, the sheer joy of surfing itself was enough to attract him.

However, deciding on this so hastily seems somewhat unfair to the other contestants.

Luo Jiashu immediately understood what he meant, waved to the evaluator, and mumbled something in his speech.

Then, with a smile on his face, the evaluator gave Li Ye a thumbs-up and started talking to him.

This time, without the sound of flowing water, and with him listening attentively, Li Ye, though struggling a bit, no longer needed Zhang Hai to translate.

"Ah Ye, you really don't need to overthink it. Even if you don't meet the requirements, there are still only five spots available, excluding special guests."

Luo Jiashu then said quite earnestly, "Moreover, everyone in our country who works in surfing-related fields is very grateful to you. You have provided so much help in promoting surfing culture."

"You flatter me, Mr. Luo."

Li Ye stopped worrying about the quota.

After resting for half an hour, Zhang Hai and I went back into the water and practiced diligently.

The evaluator didn't go into the water with Li Ye this time. He smiled and said to Luo Jiashu, "He and Hai are fully capable of winning a spot, so he seems a little unhappy. Well, to be precise, he's not satisfied with his performance."

Luo Jiashu also realized this and couldn't help but think of other celebrities.

They also invited other celebrities who surf to this carnival.

Some people were quite interested, but as soon as they heard that there would be a selection process, they all refused.

Of course, it's not entirely due to a lack of confidence in his own abilities; after all, not everyone has as much time as Li Ye.

Luo Jiashu put aside these thoughts and didn't rush to leave. He would occasionally greet curious passersby, asking, "Are you here to see Li Ye too?"

Passerby:? ? ?

......

With deliberate promotion, the Qiantang River Surfing Carnival quickly gained popularity.

The Qiantang River tidal bore is renowned far and wide.

But many people don't know that you can surf in the Qiantang River.

That's a place where you can surf?

Moreover, Li Ye is actually good enough to participate in that surfing competition?
