Chapter 325: Surname Ye
"Blow! Blow! Blow! ”
"Three-sided! Three-sided! Three-sided! ”
……
In the No. 3 gambling room, a group of people were gathered around a baccarat-le gaming table, shouting vigorously. In particular, a fat man has a very smooth hand style, and he is desperately pulling his throat, so that the whole gambling hall is his voice, which drives the atmosphere of the whole casino.
It's just that there are all kinds of beings, some people like to be lively, and some people like to be quiet. Some people like to promote themselves, while others like to be obscure. Some people come here to get rich overnight, and some people come here just for fun.
In fact, Macau's casinos have developed to this day, and there are fewer people chasing overnight riches, and more and more people regard casinos as a place of recreation. In particular, some Hong Kong people come here every weekend to relieve their stress, and the next day, whether they win or lose, they honestly go back to work.
"To buy a bank or to buy an idle business?"
In an inconspicuous corner, a beautiful woman held a red chip in her hand, looking expectantly at the middle-aged man next to her. The middle-aged man seemed to be a little absent-minded, his eyes looked away from time to time, and he only came back to his senses when he heard the woman's words.
"You have an idea!" Ye Zijie looked at her sideways, with a faint warmth in his eyes.
"No! I'm counting on you, a math master, or I'll lose all my money!" Gu Jiao behaved a little tough, as if she had to pull him into the water.
Ye Zijie hesitated for a moment, and finally put the chips in the idle position, and said, "I'll help you try my luck, this gambling money is actually mainly about luck, and it doesn't have much to do with mathematics!" ”
"Is it okay?" Gu Jiao tilted her neck and looked at him, with a hint of doubt in her eyes, "I recently saw a piece of news in Australia, saying that 19 mathematicians have made 2.4 billion Australian dollars in casinos in just three years by mathematically calculating probability!" ”
"I've read the news too. But I asked an Australian friend, and the report was grossly inaccurate! When Ye Zijie heard this, he shook his head lightly, looked at the woman with an interested look, organized the language, and then continued frankly. The source of the news was that the Australian authorities investigated the tax evasion of the gang and found that the gang had a total of $2.4 billion in bets a year, and the profits they made from the casino were only about $50 million. As a result, authorities launched an investigation into the source of its $2.4 billion in funding, only for some journalists to gain attention, claiming that the gang had won $2.4 billion from the casino. ”
I have to say that some newspapers that are greedy for short-term performance can think of any trick for the sake of sales. Not to mention foreign countries that don't have too many regulations, even if it's a China with harsh regulations. Even if there is no pressure to sell, they are very likely to come up with a trick out of nothing.
For example, in a regional report, one reported that ******** arrived in Taiwan at noon for an inspection, and the other reported that the ******** visited the children of a certain elementary school in the afternoon. This kind of example, in fact, is not a decimal.
"Is this news fake?" When Gu Jiao heard this, her eyes flashed with disappointment.
"It's not all fake, the guys did use some mathematical knowledge of probability, but it wasn't as amazing as the news reported! And you've seen it too. They put that money to work, and the proceeds were $50 million. The yield is only 2.5 per cent, and it now faces $900 million in tax collection. Ye Zijie shook his head lightly, debunking this myth that was godly.
"It's only 2.5%, it's better to open a casino yourself!" When Gu Jiao heard this yield, her brows furrowed slightly.
Since I work in a bank, I am still quite sensitive to this kind of figures. If it's in China. Not to mention all kinds of bonds and wealth management products, the one-year fixed deposits of banks alone are much higher than this.
I thought it was a group of magical people, but now it seems that they are actually doing "stupid things" with high risk and low return.
"If it weren't for their deep pockets. I'm afraid that there is no yield of 2.5%, and I have to lose money inside! Ye Zijie looked at her interested, reached out and pushed up the socket of his glasses, and continued the topic just now.
"What do you mean by that?" Although the dealer had already assigned her cards, Gu Jiao still focused on Ye Zijie.
"We went to bet on horses last year, do you remember?" Ye Zi placed his two hands on the table, his fingers clasped together.
"What else? I lost 20,000 yuan and lost money! When Gu Jiao heard about the date, she immediately begged for it.
"Didn't I give you all my bank cards?" Ye Zijie was slightly embarrassed, his financial power had already been controlled by Gu Jiao, and then he returned to the topic, "And we didn't lose 20,000, in fact, we lost 10,000." ”
"Why not 20,000, I obviously bought 20,000...... That's right, it's 18,000! Gu Jiao absentmindedly touched the cards, but quickly nodded in approval.
This has to start with the policy of Hong Kong Racecourse, in order to attract large customers, they stipulate that if a single bet exceeds $10,000 and fails to win, a 10% rebate will be awarded. That is, although Gu Jiao bought 20,000 yuan, she finally returned 2,000 yuan.
"The trick of counter-benefiting large customers is not unique to the Hong Kong Jockey Club, but it is actually very common in major casinos around the world!" Ye Zijie glanced at the cards she touched, and then continued, "If these counter-profits are evenly distributed, this group of people will be different from ordinary gamblers, and the winning and losing rate between them and the casino will probably be pulled back to five or five." ”
"Aren't we going to win or lose with the casino?" Gu Jiao showed the card and asked suspiciously.
"It's not!" Ye Zijie shook his head seriously.
"Bet on the size, huh?" Gu Jiao immediately gave an example.
"Of course not! Although the payouts are one to one, the leopard can take it all. With probability, the probability of this situation would be 1 in 36, so ...... The casino's win rate increases from 50% to 51.39% while our win rate drops to 48.61%. Ye Zijie let go of his clasped fingers, and his brain worked quickly, calculating the numbers very lightly.
"I see!" Gu Jiao took the chips paid by the dealer and nodded approvingly.
"Through the preferential policies of the casino, and then using some mathematical probabilities, such as betting on 21 points, can actually increase the winning rate to more than 50%." Ye Zijie finally made a conclusion.
"According to you, these guys aren't amazing!" Gu Jiao took the chips in her hand and stood up suddenly.
"Where to go?" Ye Zijie watched her stand up and asked slightly puzzled.
"We're here to do something!" Gu Jiao looked ahead and suddenly waved her hand over there.
In the crowd that walked through, a familiar figure happened to pass by the gambling hall, and seemed to see Gu Jiao beckoning, and immediately turned his head.
