Chapter 281: Nine Lives (G)
Lao Zhang figured out this, and hurriedly said to Wu San: "Boss Wu, you are right, it is indeed not appropriate to use this method to win money in the casino, and it will cause you trouble, so I will leave." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
Lao Zhang stood up and was about to say goodbye to Wu San, but Wu San waved his hand to Lao Zhang, "Teacher Zhang, don't worry, you don't understand what I mean, what I want to say is that my casino is not allowed to sell thousands, but other people's casinos may not have such rules, we can follow the previous cooperation method unchanged, I will gamble, but the winning money will be added to you by one percent, I will take you to other casinos in the city, how about it?"
At this time, Lao Zhang suddenly realized. Although Shijiazhuang is not big, there are many underground casinos, but the number of real high-end gamblers is not much, these people are the main source of income for the casino, and they are also the focus of competition among the underground casinos.
Wu San took himself to these casinos, on the one hand, he could make a profit by gambling, on the other hand, there will be many high-end gamblers who are anxious to lose, and if they go to other casinos, Wu San's own casinos will also benefit from it. This is really a good strategy to kill two birds with one stone, which makes Lao Zhang still admire Wu San a little.
But in his heart, Lao Zhang was still a little repulsed by Wu San's calculations, and he didn't care how much money he could make from gambling. The cooperation with Wu San made Lao Zhang very uneasy in his heart, to be honest, he didn't fully believe in Wu San, this person was full of benevolence and righteousness on the surface, but his thoughts about doing things were much more far-reaching than his own, so that Lao Zhang always had a feeling of not doing it steadily, and faintly felt that Wu San would lead him to an abyss from which he would never recover.
The two were silent for a long time, each drank a glass of whiskey, Lao Zhang made up his mind, stood up again, and said: "Boss Wu, I'm just a middle school math teacher, I'm only interested in calculation formulas and probability, and I don't want to make any money from gambling, I am very grateful for your care of me, but my vacation is almost over, I went back to school, the classes are very busy, I'm afraid I don't have much time to play, I'm sorry." ā
Wu San nodded, his expression was a little down, but his body didn't move, he didn't look at Lao Zhang, and said: "Teacher Zhang, I have a sentence that you take to heart, people, if you gamble, you will understand, if you go to the park now, you will feel that the gambling there can't be played, and it will not make you excited at all, and naturally your research effect will be greatly reduced." ā
"Gamblers use how much money they win to measure their value, I believe that Mr. Zhang, you will also have a standard to measure your performance, maybe to test and improve your calculations, maybe to improve the accuracy of your calculations, but I always think that your own hard work is important, but your opponent is equally important. Without different opponents, without strong opponents, without opponents' strategies against you, you will not have new breakthroughs. Mr. Zhang, if you want such a breakthrough, you can come to me at any time. ā
Wu San's words didn't seem to come from the mouth of an underground casino owner, a man with a scar who had experienced bloody rain, which made Lao Zhang very surprised. Lao Zhang also asked himself these questions in his heart, he originally thought that he was just because he saw the mathematical and probability problems in gambling, and hoped to answer these questions through his own personal practice. It stands to reason that he has now completely verified his guesses, found out the regularity of them, and summed up a set of effective and scientifically rigorous methods, but this method has no practical meaning for ordinary people, for people whose brains cannot achieve his ability to calculate and remember.
He doesn't have to indulge in it at all, he doesn't care how much money he wins, that kind of challenge, Wu San is right, it used to be the driving force that supported him to move forward. But at this time, he had no reason to continue, but for some reason, he still had a hidden deep expectation in his heart.
Lao Zhang shook his head self-deprecatingly, stood up, nodded to Wu San, and walked out of the gloomy warehouse.
After that, the school opened, and Lao Zhang returned to the familiar campus and returned to those simple children. But when he dragged his tired body home every night and snuggled up on the sofa, his mind would involuntarily flash through the various gambling games he encountered in the casino, and his brain seemed to receive some unknown instructions, and began to run rapidly, calculate, and then draw conclusions. Later, Zhang's brain will imagine a gambling scene by itself, imagine a skilled dealer, he will observe the dealer's movements and habits, look for patterns, to predict the final order of cards.
Lao Zhang also felt strange that the human brain is a precise storage and calculation machine, about the dealer, he thinks it should be the one he has analyzed, his habits and the cards issued should be the memory stored in the brain. But Lao Zhang soon found out that it was not a memory, and the dealer's method was very different from the memory, but the key was that the card would not be the same every time.
In this way, Lao Zhang fell into deep thought, although the human brain is sophisticated, it is not a machine after all. If the brain gives itself a question, then as the owner of the brain, his consciousness must also know the answer at the same time. How can there be a process of self-observation, memory, and judgment later? What Lao Zhang can confirm is that his brain does not know the answers before he calculates, so where do these questions come from? How does it create a dealer that does not exist?
Then there is only one possibility, your brain can be divided into two parts, one part is creating an illusory scene, and the other part is trying to solve it. Then the part that creates the scene should be your own subconscious, and the other half of the brain may not be correct when answering questions, but only meet the needs of the subconscious. This game of himself and his own should not improve his computing power.
Perhaps in the process of exploring the unknown world, the real biggest unknown is precisely the brain of our thinking about the world, Lao Zhang sighed silently in his heart, but he already had the urge to return to the casino and challenge again.
On the weekend, Lao Zhang couldn't hold back his inner struggle, so he went to a small park near his home and wandered in a poker stall. But Lao Zhang had to agree with the correctness of Wu San's words, and he lost the fun of calculation before. Maybe it's because the dealer's shuffling technique is too simple, no need to memorize, maybe it's the intentions, strategies and skills of the people in the game are too low-level, it's easy for him to see through, the old Zhang in the park is already the top master of the Zakin flower world, a kind of boredom and loneliness after a glance of the mountains.
This made Lao Zhang not interested, after playing more than a dozen games, he was too lazy to remember the cards, too lazy to analyze and calculate, and he was not a strong point in the real bidding link itself, and lost a few games in a row. Although Lao Zhang has been confirming that his interest in the game is a calculation process, not a gambling capital himself, but now he has to admit that without the psychological pressure brought by high gambling funds, he can not find the fighting spirit to study seriously, neither concentrate nor stimulate potential.
Lao Zhang left the park in a daze, and for two days he did not stay in front of the gambling game in the small park for more than an hour, and the cash was exported to a few hundred yuan. Those idlers who are not very familiar with Lao Zhang treat him as a rookie who has just entered the gambling game, and they are squeezing and ridiculing him vigorously, while those who know that he used to be talented are whispering on the side, and they can't guess why he hasn't seen him for a few days, so he disappears from everyone?
The cause and effect and suffering in this are only understood by Lao Zhang, life is so ridiculous, if you have to find someone to talk to, maybe this bosom friend is only Wu San, but he is the person he has repeatedly wanted to avoid. Thinking of this, Lao Zhang shook his head helplessly and slowly paced home.
A week later, Wu San saw Lao Zhang again in the storage room at the end of the casino. The previous Lao Zhang, although he was not rich and had no taste, was dressed plainly and neatly, but at this time, Lao Zhang in front of Wu San seemed to have not changed his clothes for a few days, he was wrinkled, his hair was as messy as thatch, his eyes were red, and even his eye sockets were black, and it seemed that he had not slept well for a few days.
Lao Zhang told Wu San that he thought about it after he went back, and felt that Wu San's words made sense, and he accepted Wu San's conditions and was willing to go to other casinos with him. Lao Zhang's words seemed to be completely expected by Wu San, but Wu San's reaction was beyond Lao Zhang's expectations. Wu San didn't move, just stared at Lao Zhang with his gloomy eyes in a daze.
Lao Zhang thought that he had said something wrong just now, or that Wu San had some idea these days, and hurriedly said: "Boss Wu, don't worry, I really figured it out this time, and I will never retreat halfway, and I will definitely follow your arrangement, if you think I have taken more, I can only take three achievements." ā
Wu San shook his head, sighed and said, "Teacher Zhang, you asked me to take you to gamble, I can't ask for it, but I only have one condition, if you don't agree, we will never know each other." Wu San's voice was very soft and slow, and he seemed to be fighting fiercely in his heart. As he spoke, he picked up a bottle of foreign wine from the ground and poured wine into Lao Zhang's cup and his own cup.
(Those who examine a song should not be used to make it into words; those who judge a moment should not be made into words.) The day does not know the night, the moon does not know the day, the sun and the moon are bright and the Buddha can have both, only heaven and earth can communicate it. can encompass the world, and only the invisible is also. The arrogant king has no loyal ministers, and the wise man has no trust. The arched wood, the branches without the handle, the ordinary ditch, the fish that swallows the boat. If the root is shallow, the end is short, and the root injury will wither. Happiness is born from inaction, suffering is born from many desires, harm is born from Fubei, and filth is born from Fu. If the saint is afraid of goodness, he is afraid of evil. Dusty and want not to squint, wading in the water and want to be wet, can not be obtained. Therefore, those who know themselves do not complain about others, and those who know their fate do not complain about heaven. Blessings come from oneself, and disasters arise from oneself. --"Huainanzi")
