Chapter 752 A game with at least hundreds of millions of people
I heard that William planned to eat three potatoes a day from now on, and even eating one more would be considered a snack.
Many of the viewers watching the live broadcast happily took out various snacks and ate them with a smile on their faces and a sense of superiority.
Then I saw William watering each flower pot carefully and by weight, sighing at the preciousness of water resources while watering.
The audience took out drinks again, took a sip of snacks and a drink, and after taking a sip, they raised the bottle and paid respect to William who was distressed about the water on the TV.
Unfortunately, when these people were feeling triumphant, they heard William, who had sent the message back on Sunday,
He rolled his eyes and said to the live broadcast ball with a smile, what he wants to drink most now is the precious red wine from the cellars of his own Chateau Latour and Margaux.
And when it comes to Macallan Treasures vintage whiskey from London Manor Cellars.
The audience who were drinking drinks were stunned, and then looked at the drink bottles in their hands with a depressed look, thinking that they were drinking wine worth tens of thousands of dollars a bottle.
I couldn't help but throw the bottle away in despair, and angrily raised my middle finger at the TV.
He cursed and wished William to stay on Mars forever and gnaw potatoes, and even directly wished William to drink his own urine one day.
But then I heard William complaining that since he couldn’t drink the new wines from the two wineries this year, instead of hiding them, he might as well take them out and play a game with everyone and share the happiness.
Those who had blessed William immediately changed their tune and began to really praise him.
"Let's bet on the final harvest weight of these forty potatoes."
Stopping talking, William thought quietly for a while and then said, "There are now more than one billion people watching my live broadcast.
So it is expected that the number of people participating may reach more than 100 million. In this case, I have to give the weight accurately to grams.
For example, if two hundred potatoes are weighed at 10,01 grams when harvested, everyone who guesses correctly will receive a random bottle of this year's new wine from two wineries.
And I guarantee that it is the genuine red wine from Chateau Latour and Margaux, and it is definitely not the second-class brand or second-label wine of the winery.
And the quantity is 10,000 bottles, which means there are 5,000 bottles of Latour and 5,000 bottles of Margaux respectively, genuine wines worth at least 2,000 US dollars.
If only one person guesses correctly, then congratulations, the moment the results are announced, you will be a rich man worth 20 million US dollars.
If he keeps it in a cellar, his wealth should increase by one level every year.
If 100 people guess correctly, then these 100 people will share 10,000 bottles of wine equally.
But if the number of people who guess correctly exceeds 10,000, then maybe you can choose a gold coin with my face printed on it, weighing one hundred grams and worth two thousand US dollars.
In short, there are only 10,000 bottles of red wine, but for gold coins, I believe that even if 100,000 people guess it correctly, I won’t need to transport gold back from Mars.
The gold currently in the Devonshire family's vault is enough for me to play dozens more times."
Dozens of times? As soon as these words came out, the hosts and guests from major TV stations around the world,
After just a little calculation, I was so shocked that I repeatedly called God.
"One hundred thousand 100-gram gold coins is equivalent to ten tons of gold, and dozens of times means that there are at least two hundred tons of gold stored in the Devonshire family vault.
The gold reserves of just two hundred tons are 23 tons more than Belgium, which ranks 21st in gold reserves in the world.
God, William Devonshire is truly wealthy."
For a time, people all over the world were curious about how much hidden wealth William had.
How on earth could such a huge amount of gold be obtained in more than two years?
What makes people all over the world even more curious is where is the Devonshire family treasury?
There must be more than just gold hidden inside, there must be other jewelry and antiques.
As soon as this speculation came out, many people began to be dissatisfied that the live broadcast could only be watched but could not communicate. They had too many things to communicate with William.
One after another, they began to call the TV station or the London Space Center, asking to activate the conversation function.
William was talking to the audience about setting up a website that would allow anyone who wants to participate in the weight-guessing game to enter their weight and their ID number.
After hearing Sunday's report, I couldn't help but be stunned for a few seconds.
The live broadcast is launched every day. On the one hand, the live broadcast can let the outside world know his situation on Mars.
To appease those who are interested in him but have been hesitant to take action, it can also enhance the reputation of the Devonshire family.
On the other hand, it is not impossible to use the attention of ordinary people around the world to gain certain chips.
Although he was absolutely confident that he could handle this matter, it would make his opponent even more worried about why he didn't do it.
The stronger your strength is, the weaker your opponent is.
The most important thing is that as time goes by, the remaining supplies are getting less and less, and he has to convey his miserable situation to deceive those with evil intentions.
He spent half an hour on his own, explaining the settings of the website, so as not to let Blue Star's people know that he was still watching Blue Star's every move at this moment.
Then he pretended to have received the news and said to the live broadcast with a smile, "If you want to talk to me directly, you can.
But if I want to keep in communication at all times, this involves many of my unique cross-planet communication technologies.
I am reluctant to share these technologies. After all, if you really want to calculate it, even if the asking price is 10 billion pounds, there are still many buyers. There is no problem in selling for 50 billion pounds.
But if we really do this, the English officials would be eager to send the court summons to Mars and hand it over to me."
"If the signal is transferred to a TV station in England through the London Space Center for limited call relay, there should be no problem."
William lowered his head and thought for a while and then said, "Okay, today's live broadcast ends here. I have to communicate with the staff of the England Space Center to avoid leaks."
After turning off the live broadcast, William soon appeared on the big screen in the command hall of the space center.
But his attitude towards the space center was not as polite and scrupulous as he said during the live broadcast.
Not even caring about their opinions, they directly designated a TV station that was most friendly to China as a partner.
Several English TV stations from the outside world, after learning that William would choose a company to cooperate with, are working hard to discuss countermeasures, but they don't know that everything they have done is in vain.
Regarding William's attitude, Thomas Berry, the head of the space center, was not surprised at all.
If anyone is trapped on Mars and can still be calm to everyone, then it’s no surprise that there are no ghosts here.
There had been leaks at their space center before. Although the leaks were what William expected, he couldn't pretend to be generous and give them a good look.
"What you said about cooperating with the TV station and making limited-time calls, we can do it today, but,,",
Thomas stopped talking and looked at William's face. When he saw William smiling, he continued to ask,
"Richard first asked me to ask you when exactly you were going to find the alien corpse you mentioned."
