Chapter 511: Is It Really Fair?
readx;??? ps: Thank you for the three saints, Huang Da, Wan times, Zijia for the reward, thank you for the laughing orangutan big, no desire and no desire for a big monthly pass!
Use the antiques you won in the second round as a book? Wu Di smiled and shook his head, he was just wondering how it could be so fair in front of him, it turned out that all the joints were in the third round. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info If it is really according to their imagination, in the end, only the first place can keep the treasure antique in their hands, then the other nine will return to their hands safe and sound after successfully completing the task of luring the enemy!
However, is this wishful thinking too good? If...... What if someone was able to win more than two pieces in the second round? In this way, even if he loses in the last round, he can still keep at least one peerless treasure, right? Hehe, what if you win three pieces and end up in the first place? What if you win four, five?
Wu Di suppressed the excitement in his heart and continued to look down, if someone won more than two antiques in the second round, the missing players in the third round will be selected according to the value of a single piece of antiques brought by the contestants. Regardless of whether you lose or lose, if you bring an antique with you that has the highest value among all the antiques carried by all the contestants, then congratulations, you are the first substitute! If there are still vacancies, it is second......
Wu Di rubbed his eyebrows, although the meaning of this article was a little awkward, he understood it. In other words, although the conference clearly stipulates that it is enough to bring antiques worth more than 5 million US dollars to participate in the competition, because of this rule, it is likely that more than half of the people will bring a more precious antique! This antique will definitely be worth well over five million!
He nodded, affirming his judgment, there must be no fewer such people! Because, everyone can see that according to the existing rules, if you want to pass the second round safely, even professional gamblers are not 100% sure, then. Why not take a different path? It can be said that this article is a backdoor specially set up for those speculators!
However, this back door is really vicious! It is conceivable that if he wants to compete for only one or two substitute seats, then the value of the antiques he carries must be in the top two out of more than 4,000 antiques! How precious antiques do you need? If you really calculate it, I'm afraid it's not much worse than those ten treasures, right? Are they really willing to take this antique to fight for a place in the final round?
After reading the rules again, Wu Di found that they would, and they would definitely not feel sorry for this antique! Because, the rewards for the top three in the end are too generous! In general. Any player who wants to enter the final round through this back door is either confident in his gambling skills and has a certain certainty of winning after putting an end to the chances of the second round. Either it's pure gambler psychology and try your luck. Because, the prize will compensate them for all their losses!
Why, it's down to the rules. The ten treasures are not counted in the final prize, but there is no limit to the rest. In other words, you lose an antique that is about the same value as those rarity antiques in the front. But as long as you win the last round, you can get it back in good condition! Moreover, you can also give preference to the remaining twenty-nine pieces!
These twenty-nine antiques will definitely not be ordinary goods, because. There are a lot of people who want to make it to the third round with the value of antiques! If they were to lose all the treasures and antiques they were carrying into the prize pool, what an astonishing fortune would that twenty-nine pieces of random selection be?
Even if he doesn't get the first, the second and third harvest may not be worse than the one he outputs!
What a tempting calculation, such a vicious calculation!
Wu Di pondered for a while. Such a regulation seems very reasonable, but in fact it is very deceitful. For example, you know that you can't get a replacement for that precious antique you brought with you. According to the rules, after you lose two ordinary antiques, you can choose not to participate in the competition for the remaining ten rare antiques, or you can feel that the form is not good at the beginning, and simply do not participate in any of them, so you should not lose anything.
However, since you came for those ten treasures and antiques from the beginning, in that kind of atmosphere, coupled with the provocation and temptation of people with intentions, can you really bear it? Think about it, how do those gamblers lose more and more in the casino? When the time comes, they are afraid that they will intensify their use of various means to make you willingly lose the last antique in your hand!
My card, worthy of the rules researched by elite casinos! It seems reasonable everywhere, but there is an irresistible temptation everywhere, hehe, even if the second round is not big this time, the first place in this competition is also very interesting!
Wu Di read the rules from beginning to end again, pondered for five minutes, and dialed Dongfang Lie's phone.
"Done? What does it feel like? ”
"Awesome, the maker of this rule is definitely a top psychological master, full of temptations everywhere, but you can't find fault with it."
"Can't fault it? Hehe, Xiao Wu, if everyone follows the rules, this is indeed a very fair rule. But if it's that fair, what are they betting for? ”
Wu Di took out his mobile phone, looked at the numbers on it, and said with a smile:
"Of course, for the sake of profit, huge benefit, huge unimaginable benefit! Master, I calculated the income of the conference, because the supplementary rule in the third round is that you can compete for a substitute spot in the third round according to the preciousness of the single antique you carry, and I have increased the average value of the antiques in the competition, which should be around 6.5 million US dollars, which is not very high, right? If this valuation is followed, a huge amount of money will accumulate in the prize pool, and even if everyone redeems it at a fifth of the price, it will be a huge sum of more than a billion dollars......"
Dongfang Lie shook his head on the other end of the phone, and suddenly thought that Wu Di couldn't see it, so he directly interrupted him,
"Billion? Hehe, I don't know how you calculated, they engaged in such a large-scale competition, and their appetite is only a billion yuan? You're underestimating them too much. ”
"Oh, I think about it this way, even if they encourage and tempt again, there will always be people who will retract after suffering a loss and give up the next game, right? In that case......"
"Give up? Will they make you give up? Hehe, you take a good look at the redemption system, you tell me, why is there a redemption system? ”
"I think it's mainly for the long run, right? If you catch all the antiques at once, won't you have to play in the future? Besides, if there is no such system, everyone feels sorry for antiques, and they are afraid that no matter how strong the temptation is, there will not be too many people involved. ”
"That's right, your second rule is fundamental, this system is to relieve the worries of you players! It's okay to lose, it's okay to lose, it's still yours to spend some money on antiques, but in case you win, it's a huge irresistible temptation...... Hehe, do you think the person who can sign up for this competition, can he really resist this temptation? Especially when there are no worries? ”
Wu Di groaned,
"I've thought about that possibility, but it's hard to say what the real situation is, but there will definitely be some people who will be able to stay awake."
"That's for sure, but it's definitely not too much. Okay, let's take a look at the identification of antique value, do you see something? ”
Value? Nothing is wrong, huh? Ten masters appraisal, there shouldn't be any problems, right?
"There may be no problem, but have you noticed why the value of antiques is not based on the auction or other forms of auction price, but on the appraisal of the conference?"
"It has to be like this, so that we can prevent uncontrolled cheating. Otherwise, if I collude with an auction company to fry a guy worth hundreds of thousands of dollars to more than five million, won't the conference lose money? ”
"Hehe, you can think of this layer, why don't you think about it deeper? Of course, they do this to eliminate other cheating, but they can cheat at will! ”
"Cheating on your own? You mean the antiques carried by the people they sent in? ”
"No, this cheat is for all antiques! You think, an antique worth $4 million should not be eligible for the competition. But the conference is valued at six million, you must not have an opinion, right? So good, you're let in. Then, you lose the antique, so will you choose to redeem it? The answer is yes, you will redeem it, because even if it is only worth four million, it will only be redeemed for one and two hundred thousand! But in this way, the congress earned an extra $400,000! Hehe, Xiao Wu, you have to understand that what they want is not antiques, but banknotes! ”
Wu Di understood, this hand was too ruthless! If they were really prepared to do so, the average value of the participating antiques would likely be more than eight million! Or more than ten million! Because no matter how exaggerated the valuation is, as long as the value of the antique itself exceeds one-fifth of the appraised value of the conference, the original owner will definitely choose to redeem it. Of course, if you don't redeem, the convention will only earn more!
Well, assuming that the average valuation of each antique is eight million, then their redemption price is one hundred and sixty thousand. According to the most extreme case, except for the ten players who qualified for the final round, there is only one antique left in their hands, and the rest will not be counted in the prize pool of the competition, and they can collect a total of 4,490 antiques!
Four thousand four hundred and ninety! After deducting the 60 pieces taken by the top three, the redemption price of each of the remaining pieces is $1.6 million, and the final proceeds of the conference will be as high as $788 million!
Well, even if someone can stay awake, even if there are all kinds of accidents, this number should not be less than five billion, right? The ten antiques in the second round were basically recycled, and the profit was so huge, of course they chose to hold a fair competition! (To be continued.) )
