"Mr. Wei, what you mean is that the Gambling King Competition wants me to be an assistant?"!
Qin Feng did not appear as angry as Henry Wei imagined, and said in a calm tone: "What's going on with this gambling king competition? Mr. Wei, can you tell me first?"
Qin Feng was really curious. Although gambling was not prohibited in China in ancient times, casinos had disappeared in the country after liberation. He really didn't know about the Gambling King Competition abroad.
"Mr. Qin, you...are you agreeing?" Henry Wei secretly glanced at Qin Feng.
"Don't ask, I didn't agree. I just want to hear what you say about the situation."
Qin Feng shook his head and said: "Isn't this gambling king competition just about the winner taking it all? I want to know what role the assistant can play in it? Mr. Wei will never ask me to help you with your basic necessities, right? Qin
I don’t know how to serve others.”
"No, that's not what I meant."
Henry Wei waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Mr. Qin, it's like this. The Gambling King Competition in Las Vegas has been around since the 1980s. Every year, there is a ranking of gambling masters in various casinos around the world...···
There are many competitions in the Gambling King Competition, ranging from Chinese mahjong to foreign cards. The intensity is very high, and sometimes even gambling lasts for days and nights..."
"So that's what happened?" After hearing Henry Wei's explanation, Qin Feng understood the ins and outs of this gambling king competition.
In the mid-1980s, in order to attract business, a casino in Las Vegas teamed up with two other casinos to jointly hold the first Gambling King Competition.
This first Gambling King Competition was only held in a few casinos in Las Vegas. In order to interact with tourists who came to gamble, the casinos even invited many tourists as contestants.
But even so, there were only more than a hundred contestants in the first Gambling King Competition, and the scene was tepid. In the eyes of casino owners and tourists, it was just a game.
Since it is a competition, of course there must be a bonus. The wealthy casino offered a reward of US$100,000 to the current gambling king, and he was also crowned the World Gambling King.
Although one hundred thousand US dollars is not too small, in the eyes of professional gamblers from all over the world, they are more interested in the title of World Gambling King.
So in the second year, more and more people came to participate in the Gambling King Competition, and they were all masters from famous casinos around the world. A total of more than 500 people participated in the second Gambling King Competition.
The successful holding of the second Gambling King Competition not only brought fame to the contestants, but more importantly, it also brought them huge benefits.
After the competition, the world's gambling king was invited to work as a technical director in a casino with an annual salary of five million US dollars. You know, the five million in the 1980s is not comparable to the fifty million today.
.
It is famous and profitable, and the World Gambling King Competition held in Las Vegas has become completely popular. At least in the world of gambling, it is known to everyone. Many people who consider themselves to be good at gambling have attended at their own expense.
After more than ten years, this competition has become a traditional event in Las Vegas. The details are becoming more and more standardized, and the number of competition events has become more and more.
In the Gambling King Competition five years ago, more than 50,000 professional gamblers and tourists signed up. This not only brought huge popularity to the organizers, it was also a great test of their organizational capabilities.
In the end, this gambling king competition with the largest number of participants was not very successful.
So the organizers made some adjustments, requiring each player to participate in the competition to bring 50,000 US dollars, which can be exchanged for chips in the gambling game to pay for their wins and losses.
According to the regulations of the conference, all the money won by the players during the gambling competition will not only belong to themselves, but the organizer has also prepared extremely generous bonuses for the players who get the top and NO place in the gambling king competition.
As soon as the regulation that fifty thousand yuan is neither too much nor too little is introduced, the first thing to be excluded are those tourists who focus on participation, and the second is those professional gamblers who have average gambling skills but dream of getting ahead.
But even so, in the second year after the new regulations were introduced, more than a thousand professional players still participated in the Gambling King Competition, involving as much as 50 million yuan.
The person who finally won the title of Gambling King not only made 30 million U.S. dollars in bets, but also received a 10 million U.S. dollar bonus from the organizer.
It can be said that that person made more money this year than any other gambling industry.
Since they are gambling with their own money, most people will be very cautious during the gambling game and will think twice about every card they play.
As a result, the gambling game progressed very slowly, and some people with good gambling skills even fainted in the casino due to physical reasons.
After some coordination, three years ago the organization introduced another method, that is, each player participating in the main gambling competition is allowed to bring an assistant to participate in the gambling competition.
The assistants brought by the prospective gambling kings do not need to take care of the lives of the official players, but they need to temporarily take over the gambling game so that the official contestants can get a
Will take a rest.
Don't underestimate this assistant, he is an extremely important part of the Gambling King Competition.
Because continuous gambling consumes a lot of people's mental and physical energy, when they feel tired, they need assistants to take action.
Although the assistant does not play for a long time, the requirements are extremely high, because if the assistant loses all his chips while the official player is sleeping, the contestant will really cry without tears.
In the subsequent Gambling King Competitions, an assistant with superb gambling skills can often become an important factor in determining the title of Gambling King. Two Gambling King Conferences have proven this statement.
Therefore, some people can be said to be harsh in the selection of assistants. After being selected, they will call the assistants their partners. After the Gambling King Competition is over, those who have won the ranking and bonus will discuss with their assistants how to share the money.
"So it turns out that the benefits are all obtained by the official players, and the assistants only get the soy sauce..."
After listening to Henry Wei's explanation, Qin Feng fully understood that this assistant had contributed a lot, but the benefits gained in the end were negligible, and most of them were taken by Henry Wei.
"Mr. Qin, don't refuse in a hurry."
Seeing the disapproval look on Qin Feng's face, Henry Wei quickly said: "As long as Mr. Qin is willing to be my assistant, Mr. Qin, you will get 60% of the income from this gambling king competition, and I only need
Four achievements are complete..."
Qin Feng waved his hand, interrupted Henry Wei's words, and asked: "Mr. Wei, let's not mention this, why do you have to participate in this gambling king competition?"
There is an old saying that people are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong. Although the Gambling King Competition can gain both fame and fortune, when you become famous, you must also beware of all kinds of overt and covert attacks. Qin Feng would never want to participate in it anyway.
.
"Mr. Qin, this matter starts with Uncle Han."
Henry Wei laughed bitterly when he heard this and said: "When Uncle Han was still alive, our people were not allowed to participate in the Gambling King Competition, so in the history of the Gambling King Competition, no one from Uncle Han's lineage has ever won it.
The king of gambling..."
Ye Han was unruly and rebellious in his early years, and he was never willing to be subordinate to others. He and Fu Laorong had a fierce battle with the current gambling king of Ao Island.
However, after finishing the Princess Casino in his later years, Ye Han's temperament changed drastically and he no longer wanted to get involved in the disputes between the rivers and lakes. He just laughed at the so-called Gambling King Competition and did not allow his subordinates to participate.
When Ye Han was alive, even if he did not participate in the gambling king competition, he was still recognized as the "Gambling Saint" in the world, and his name and reputation were higher than the gambling king in the competition.
However, after Ye Han passed away, more and more voices questioned him. Many people who had once won the gambling king said that Ye Han's title of "Gambling Saint" was not worthy of the name.
The most important basis for these people is that Ye Han has never participated in the King of Gambling Competition, and his gambling skills have not been reflected in the competition, so he does not deserve the title of "Sage of Gambling" at all.
Everything is in vain after death, so Ye Han would naturally not hear these voices, but the old people who followed him felt aggrieved. Uncle Han's status in their minds was extremely high, and they would not allow others to slander him even after he died.
Among these old people, Henry Wei has the best gambling skills. After some phone calls and discussions, everyone decided to take Henry Wei as the leader to participate in this gambling king competition.
Among the people who followed Ye Han in his early years, there were also several people with good gambling skills, but they were too old and their hands, feet and eyesight were not as good as before, so finding assistants became Henry Wei's top priority.
"Those of you who followed Uncle Han back then, do you still have contact?" After hearing Henry Wei's explanation, Qin Feng's eyes lit up.
"Of course there is a connection. I just need to say hello and I can gather everyone together immediately."
Henry Wei nodded and said: "The reason why the gambling king on Ao Island can't tolerate me is because he is afraid that I will bring people together to conquer the country..."
Henry Wei's face was full of confidence, because he did have the confidence. As long as he gathered the group of people who followed Ye Han, he could support a world-class casino at any time that was no less big than the Lisboa on Macao Island.
"Then why didn't you open your own casino instead of going to a small club like this in the capital?" Qin Feng was a little confused. Why did Henry Wei still hang around here when he had such connections?
"this……"
Henry Wei hesitated for a moment and said: "Uncle Han once told me before he passed away that I have enough gambling skills, but I have too little experience in the world of gambling. If I set up another branch, I will be eaten by others and no bones will be left..."
"Are you willing to tell the truth?"
Qin Feng couldn't help laughing when he heard this. He had long seen that Henry Wei did not look like a gangster. His skills as a croupier and a casino host were good, but when it came to dealing with people in the gangster, his ability was not.
