"Hey~ hello~ This gentleman wearing a crow mask.∽↗," just as the man in the suit was getting money from Brother Jue, the man wearing a white opera mask who had said something to the organizer before walked out.
He came over and said to him, "One hundred thousand dollars is not a small amount, right? I borrowed the maximum amount without even thinking about it. Is this really good?"
"Ha..." Feng Bujue laughed immediately after hearing this, "Is this a question of 'is it good or not'?"
The other party was stunned by his question and didn't know how to respond.
Seeing this, Brother Jue chuckled again and continued: "Although I still don't know what the specific content of the next game will be, one thing is beyond doubt... the 'chip' game is equivalent to the 'chip' in the game.
Life'ah."
His metaphor instantly enlightened many people around him.
"Since the organizer is very 'kind' in providing us with this kind of interest-free loan." Feng Bujue paused for two seconds and then said, "Then why should I be timid and limit myself?"
He is right...the amount of the loan this time directly determines the degree of freedom that players can obtain in subsequent games. Now, naturally, they can borrow as much as they can.
"This..." The man in the opera mask stood there and thought for a few seconds, then continued, "Huh... you say this because you chose to accept the organizer's protection after failure, right? So you don't care about this extra
A debt of 100,000 yuan."
"No, I chose to disembark." When Feng Bujue said this, the man in the suit had already prepared cash. Brother Jue took the plastic bag filled with US dollars and said, "Choose."
If you accept the protection, it is equivalent to betting the rest of your life here; in contrast... if you choose to disembark, you will have at least a month to think of a solution."
After saying that, he took the money bag and walked to a sofa beside the wall of the main hall.
"Of course... all of the above are just my personal understanding." Before Feng Bujue walked away, he specifically left a message to the man wearing the opera mask, "You can do it in a game that may involve the rest of your life."
Borrowing the minimum amount in life's gamble may be the right thing to do."
His tone was full of sarcasm, and even if he couldn't see his face, the other party could feel the strong power of ridicule...
"Tch..." Although the man in the opera mask felt a little unhappy, he also understood that the guy in the crow mask was actually helping him, so he didn't say anything more, just walked up and took the
A contract was signed to "get off the ship after failure". He filled in the amount of 100,000 yuan and signed his name.
…………
Long story short…
In less than fifteen minutes, all the guests in the main hall had filled out their contracts.
Due to Feng Bujue's previous performance, more than 60% of people ended up borrowing $100,000, which was the upper limit of the loan amount.
However, there are still many people who choose a more moderate amount; among them, the most are 70,000 and 80,000, but the least is no less than 50,000.
After all... everyone has their own ideas; whether they are irrationally stubborn or rationally analyzed, not everyone will agree with Brother Jue's opinions based on those few words.
In addition to the amount of money, there are even fewer people who agree with Feng Bujue on the choice of "where to go after failure"...
Obviously, these desperate and desperate guests today are more inclined to the "lucky" and "hope" given by the organizer, rather than the so-called "spend another month to think of a solution".
This is normal, because...if there was a way, they would have figured it out long ago.
Another ten minutes passed.
After confirming that all magnetic cards and contracts had been recovered, the men in suits and sunglasses pushed the cart together and left the main hall.
About two minutes later, the organizer appeared again at the railing on the second floor.
This time, he didn't even say hello. He got straight to the point and went straight to the point: "Since everyone has completed the loan, then... let's get to the point quickly."
Feng Bujue could feel that the organizer couldn't wait any longer.
And Brother Jue himself... is essentially looking forward to what is about to happen.
"Except for those who have lost their qualifications before boarding the ship... there are a total of 237 guests in this main hall at this moment." After the organizer paused for a second, he began to explain, "I have prepared something for you.
The 'first game' is guessing numbers."
…………
Number guessing, also known as bulls_and_os, is an ancient code-breaking game.
Usually suitable for two or more people to play together.
Take a two-player game as an example: one party sets a number first, and the other party guesses it.
The person who sets the number must think of a four-digit decimal number (i.e. four digits, ten digits, excluding repeated digits) without repeated digits, and cannot let the guesser know. Then, the guesser can start "
Guess the number”.
Every time the guessing party guesses a number, the guesser must give a response of "how many a and how many b" based on the number guessed by the other party; among them, the number before a indicates the number of numbers in the correct position, and the number before b
Indicates the number of numbers with correct numbers but incorrect positions.
For example, if the correct answer set by the guesser is 58, and the guesser guesses 2485, the situation at this time is 1a2b; among them, the number and position of the first 2 are already correct, and it is recorded as 1a, and
The two numbers 5 and 8 are correct, but their positions are not correct, so they are recorded as 2b.
In the same way, if the correct answer set by the guesser is 14, and the guesser guesses 4321, the result will be 0a4b, all the numbers are correct, but the positions are all wrong.
And so on...
After a round of guessing, the guesser can continue reasoning based on the "how many a's and how many b's" obtained in the last guess until the correct answer is guessed (i.e. 4a0b).
…………
This is not a particularly complicated game, but it involves many factors such as memory, reasoning, calculation, and luck. Playing it... is not that simple.
Therefore, when the organizer said the three words "guess the number", the people below also made their own calculations in their minds.
And their reactions were naturally expected by the organizers...
The organizer did not pause for too long, and then continued: "Of course, it cannot be an ordinary guessing number, because it is too easy... Whether it is using standard rules (four digits, ten digits, excluding repeated numbers), or
Master's puzzle rules (four digits, six digits, including repeated numbers), as long as you master the correct solution. You will be able to guess it about seven times, and if you are lucky, it will be within five times..." He paused, "So...
…I slightly increased the difficulty and changed it to six digits, ten digits, including repeated numbers.”
As soon as he said this, many people downstairs started to have headaches...
The interesting thing is...it's not the people who are bad at math that have headaches, it's the people who are excellent at math.
As the organizer said, both the standard rules for guessing numbers and the master puzzle rules have solutions. Even people who don’t know the solutions can definitely guess within ten times as long as they have enough reasoning ability and a little bit of luck.
Guess the answer (this is the case for Feng Bujue. He can complete it within eight times).
As for ordinary people, even those with poor reasoning ability... can basically guess it within twenty times.
However, if the number of guessing digits is increased to six, and the premise of "repeatable" is added, then... the difficulty will increase exponentially...
"Okay, I don't want to waste your time anymore..."
When the organizer said this, a large group of men in suits and sunglasses poured in from various entrances to the main hall on the first floor; this time, there were hundreds of people coming in, and each of them was pushing a relatively small cart.
.
This kind of cart is different from the one that used to hold the mountain of banknotes. The length and width of the top are only about 100*50 centimeters, so it can't hold much. However, the height of this cart is quite high, about one meter and two meters.
"What you see now is the table for your 'showdown'." As the organizer said, the men in suits pushed the carts to various places in the main hall, fixed them and set them up. "Your showdown will be held by the staff.
They will be responsible for recording and implementing the results of your duel, and supervising cheating."
"Wait a minute!" At this time, a slightly chubby woman wearing a civet cat mask on the first floor shouted to the organizer. "What if you don't understand the rules of 'guessing the number'? Isn't this unfair?
"
"Haha..." the organizer laughed at that time, "haha... hahahaha..." His laughter was full of contempt.
"What? Isn't this kind of game weird?" The woman was a little annoyed and asked again loudly.
"Haha... I'm sorry, I think you misunderstood." The organizer laughed, "What I laughed at was not the first half of your sentence, but the second half..." He shook his head, "Fair? Fair... fair!
Hahahahahaha..."
He repeated those two words in three different tones, and then laughed again.
At this moment, many people in the venue also laughed, sneered, mocked, and smiled bitterly...
Amidst those laughter, the woman's body trembled slightly, and finally...she lowered her head sadly and stopped talking.
Although the organizer did not answer her question directly, the answer to this question has been conveyed to everyone here.
"okok... let me continue." After laughing for a while, the organizer finally stopped and continued, "I have indeed considered the fact that some guests may not understand the rules of the 'guess the number' game, so
..." He raised his arm and gestured to the men in suits, "On each 'desktop', in addition to the necessary paper and pen for the game, I also printed two detailed rules for 'guessing the number' with pictures and texts.
"Whether you know the rules or not, you can pick them up and check them again."
At this point, the organizer paused for a few seconds, and then continued: "I won't explain the details one by one, but there are a few key rules, and I think it's better for me to tell everyone personally...
He cleared his throat and continued, "Uh-huh... First, everyone must have at least one number-guessing duel with four different opponents. Of course, exceptions can be made for those who are unable to duel due to running out of chips.
.
"Secondly, in a duel, the amount that the 'calling party' calls each time must not be less than 1% of its total borrowings. If during the duel, a certain party has no chips to call again in the round when it calls.
, it will be regarded as a failure. However, if the other party calls the round and cannot follow due to insufficient funds, you can still use all the current amount to complete the current round with the other party.
"Third, in order to avoid someone deliberately avoiding the duel, all players must accept the 'first two' challenges from others, no matter who the opponent is. Only those who have already had two duels,
Only then can you refuse challenges from others.
"Fourth, by the end of this game, that is, at midnight...except for the sixty-four people with the most chips, the others, whether they are penniless or not, will have tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands left.
No matter what, they will all be regarded as losers."
When he finished speaking these four items, two tall men in suits and sunglasses came behind him carrying an expensive-looking sofa chair.
The organizer turned his head and glanced back, then nodded, and then the two big men put down the sofa chair.
"Well... that's all for now. You can read the other details yourself."
The organizer said and sat down leisurely.
He leaned his back against the back of the chair, placed his hands on the two armrests, and crossed his legs in a graceful and coquettish gesture.
Not long after, the two burly men in suits and sunglasses beside him moved a small round table that looked like it was made of diamonds from nowhere (if true, it might be more expensive than the eight prizes today), and placed a few prizes on the table.
Plate of melon and fruit snacks, truffles (yes, this is not random, he uses good truffles to eat with other snacks) chicken feet.
Looking at his behavior, it is as if he is performing what is meant by "sitting back and watching the show" in a textbook way.
"Master, you want red wine-cooked sweet noodle sauce with wasabi (asa biscuit)..." After the organizer sat down, one of the two burly men in suits and sunglasses went to get another drink that looked not very good in color and put it down.
On the tray, it was handed to the former, "The chef said that this uses Lafite from 1982, Lao Gan Daddy's exquisite sauce, and Japanese..."
"Where's the umbrella?" The organizer did not let the other party finish his sentence, but interrupted the other party with a somewhat inexplicable question.
"Eh?" The big man was stunned for a moment, "Umbrella... umbrella?" It seemed that he didn't understand the meaning of the question "young master".
"Didn't I tell you?" the organizer shrugged, "After it's done, put it in a goblet, put a small umbrella on it and bring it up again."
"I...I understand!" Faced with this nonsensical request, the big man replied seriously, "I'm going to throw it away and let them start over!"
"Oh~ forget it." The organizer stopped the big man, took the strange drink, held it in his hand... and then said in a sad tone, "Regret, sometimes it is also a kind of beauty~
