Mr. Jing quickly left in despair, taking a pen and a piece of paper with him... It seemed that the tall man's advice to him was still effective.
"Referee, what is the minimum bet I can bid now?" Feng Bujue turned his head and said to the man in the suit and sunglasses as soon as the other party walked away.
"Round up from one digit after the decimal point." The referee replied, "For example... your current holding fund is 102112, and 1% of it is 1021.12. The latter part can be rounded up, so your minimum bid in the 'gambling round' The bet is $1021."
"Okay, I'll bet on this amount." Feng Bujue replied immediately.
"Oh?" The tall man immediately replied in a provocative tone, "Hey, hey...Mr. Crow, I only announced eighteen rounds. Is it necessary to be so conservative?"
Brother Jue didn't answer his words, but replied: "I haven't asked for advice yet, what's your name?"
"Hehe... easy to say." The tall man raised his finger and pointed at his golden crying mask, "You can call me 'Golden Face Sorrow'."
"Jin Mianxiu." The next second, Feng Bujue continued, "With your ability, you should have known the strategy of this game when I played the first game with Mr. Jing; at that time, You just need to choose a personal challenge at will, and after two rounds, you can win at least 10,000 to 20,000 yuan..." He paused for half a second, "But... why did you come to challenge me?"
"Huh..." Jin Mianchou sneered, "It's very simple..." He said, looking up at the place where the organizers were located on the second floor, "There are only eight final winners in this banquet tonight; indeed , I am very confident that I can enter the top sixty-four in this first game, but... After this, there are obviously other games, and I have to think about the following things first... "
"Heh..." Feng Bujue laughed after listening, "That is to say... you are very sure about this first game, so... you want to get rid of those "potentially powerful enemies" before the 'this game is over'. 'Is it going to be killed?"
"Ah... that's it." Jin Mianchou didn't mean to hide anything, and he knew that it would be futile to hide it in front of this "crow", "It's not that I think I will lose in the new game after all, but after all, the new game The content of the game is still unknown... Don't make good use of it when you have an absolute advantage. Isn't it a waste?"
"Hmph... Looking for a dead end, you are the kind of person you are talking about." Feng Bujue laughed, still the kind of laughter that made people feel extremely uneasy.
"Hehe..." Jin Mian was also smiling, "You haven't answered my original question, Mr. Crow..." He changed the topic back. "You and I both know... the 'escape round' of the questioning party is in the nineteenth and twentieth rounds; and in order to win, I did not hesitate to bet the round declaration on the number eighteen, facing my 'sincerity' ’, don’t you just pay $1,021?”
"Yes, your sincerity is worth the price." Feng Bujue was unmoved, and replied calmly, "Time is precious, you should hurry up and start guessing..." He glanced at the timer, "Don't forget Well, all we're talking about now... is your 'forty-five minutes' guessing time."
"Okay~ okay~ then I'll start..." Jin Mianchou put on a disappointed look. Then start guessing...
...
Both of them moved very quickly, no matter betting, calling, guessing, feedback... basically without thinking.
After just four minutes, the first nine rounds were done.
In the first nine rounds, Jin Mianchou's guessing method was the same as that used by Feng Bujue before.
So, in the tenth round, he had found out the six numbers written by Brother Jue, which were -2, 3, 4, 5, 7, and 9.
And the money he lost also reached 9,000 US dollars.
"Hmm... did you really use the six numbers of 'no repetition'?" When betting for the tenth round, Jin Mian said sadly, "As I expected..." He looked up at Brother Jue. "You have already thoroughly understood the guessing method of this game-you know how to increase the number of guessing steps of the opponent, and relatively... you also know the 'most efficient' guessing method."
Speaking of this, Jin Mian tilted his head sadly: "Hmph... When you played against Mr. Jing just now, you deliberately didn't use the best plan. Instead, you used another side-by-side elimination thinking to solve it. In this way, your opponent has An illusion... as if you are still a certain distance away from the answer." He spread his hands, and continued in a helpless tone, "It turned out... that 'third-rate' who didn't know anything was really caught, until the 20th round, he Still thinking that you've only guessed '2A' at most, you're at least five or six steps away from the answer; as a result...you missed the 'escape round'."
"Have you finished rambling?" Feng Bujue said, "The call time is coming."
"Heh... this round. I still bet one thousand dollars." Jin Mianchou deliberately waited until the timer reached the last second before calling out the chips and pressing the switch.
"Very good." The moment the other party shouted out the chip, Brother Jue answered, "I surrender."
"Huh?" Now, Jin Mianchou was obviously stunned.
"Referee, let's settle the matter." A second later, Feng Bujue called the referee who was also in a daze.
"Uh... ah." The referee has not presided over this kind of gambling for a day or two, and the speed of settlement is very fast. , minus the ante of 9000 lost by the guessing party in the previous nine rounds, and finally... 3021, the party who made the question, please pay."
Before he could finish his sentence, Brother Jue already started to withdraw the money very quickly.
"You bastard..." Jin Mianchou, who was the recipient of the money, seemed a little annoyed at this moment, "You really don't leak water..."
"Hmph..." Feng Bujue shrugged coldly, "If Mr. Jing is said to be a 'third-rate', then you are a 'second-rate'."
"You..." Jin Mian hesitated to speak, and after a pause for two seconds, he said grimly, "You want to provoke me... I won't be fooled."
"The characteristic of a second-rate... is that they are smart." Feng Bujue ignored his words, and continued, "For example, just now... I specially chose to beep a big pass before the tenth round, and I had to wait until the last second before pressing the timer... You Do you think this is a basketball buzzer shot?" He taunted, "On the surface, he tried his best to put on a look of 'I'm not in a hurry', and at the same time distracted the opponent's attention with words, trying to make the opponent anxious." He also imitated The attitude on the other side spread his hands, "Although your tone of voice and body language are in place, the more you behave like this... the easier it is to reveal your true intentions."
"Stop criticizing me arrogantly there." Jin Mian replied unhappily. "As long as you do the math, you will know... the tenth round is a 'second-class escape round', although compared with the nineteenth and twenty rounds... you will lose a little more money if you surrender here; but in the range of 11-20 rounds Before, if you already felt that the situation was not good, this is the last chance to escape." He said. He raised his voice, "In my opinion... you are just afraid that I will guess the answer in more than ten rounds and raise your bet suddenly, so at the beginning of this game, you planned to run away in the tenth round!"
While the two of them were talking, the referee had already calculated the money, destroyed Jue Ge's answer sheet, and cleared the table.
so. The preparations for the second round of the duel are already ready, and at the beginning of this round, the balance of funds between the two sides is—
Feng Bujue: US$99,091.
Gold face worry: 103021 US dollars.
"You can think so if you want." Feng Bujue continued, "Anyway...let's come up with a question."
"Hmph..." Jin Mian snorted sadly, wrote six numbers on the paper, and handed it to the referee.
"Are these six enough?" The referee still had to confirm with him as usual.
"Yes." Jin Mian replied sadly.
"Okay." The referee looked at Brother Jue again, "Then... the guessing side of the second round, please make a round declaration now."
"One million." Feng Bujue reported an extremely exaggerated number without even thinking about it.
Hearing the number of rounds... the referee's mouth twitched twice, but he didn't say anything. Anyway, the guessing time is only 45 minutes. When the time is up, no matter how many rounds it takes to guess the solution, it will be a complete failure.
"Cut... I'll bet $1,000." Seeing the number of rounds, Jin Mianchou naturally had nothing to consider, so he gave a minimum bet...
...
Jin Mianchou is a very good person in mathematics, that is, the "fish that slipped through the net" mentioned above; shortly after he read the rules, he had already calculated the "optimal solution" of the game in his mind. According to this optimal solution, as long as the luck is not too bad, there is a probability of more than 90% that the answer can be obtained within 18 rounds.
This point... as a game designer, the organizer is naturally very clear.
The calculation formula of fines, as well as the ante of betting rounds, etc., are also designed on this basis.
Jin Mianchou has seen through all these... and thinks that he has completely mastered the whole strategy of "guess the number showdown", so he challenges Brother Jue.
However... he still underestimated Feng Bujue after all, he didn't expect that the opponent would decisively choose to surrender in the tenth round.
Brother Jue's choice. It was tantamount to declaring that he had no intention of winning in this duel.
However, even if he loses money, he has to choose this way. This is a rational concession—to minimize losses and survive. Then… fight back.
...
The next development is basically the same as the first game.
Feng Bujue used nine rounds of testing to find out the six numbers written by the other party.
And Jin Mianchou also chose to surrender in the tenth round, because he also understood... The opponent has a high chance of guessing the answer before the nineteenth round, and it is very unfavorable to delay to the range of 11-20 rounds.
As a result, the settlement amount for this round was... Jin Mianchou returned $2,981 to Brother Jue.
After going back and forth like this, Jin Mianchou found out. I worked hard for half a day and only won $40... and I also unknowingly consumed the "second duel".
From this moment on, Feng Bujue has the right not to accept other people's "challenge".
"Tch—" After the second round, Jin Mianchou said to Brother Jue in a disdainful tone, "What a boring man, but... it's a good experiment." He said with a pretentious gesture, "At least It has been proved that two people who have the same calculation ability and have thoroughly understood the rules of the game, as long as the total amount of funds is not much different, the result after the duel is roughly the same... "
After that, he waved his hand and turned around smartly: "That's it...Mr. Crow, it seems that we have to get the next game to score high..."
"Don't go." Unexpectedly, at this moment, Feng Bujue interrupted him, "Let's play another round."
These words made Jin Mianchou froze in place.
"Heh..." In the next second, Feng Bujue's disturbing laughter sounded again, "I have already experienced two duels, but you have only experienced one?" He paused, " So, I challenge you now, you can only fight."
Jin Mianchou swallowed his saliva, turned around slowly, and continued to pretend to be calm: "Hmph... Then I really want to thank you, you came here specially to help me consume the 'second duel', Will it save me from being challenged next?"
"No, I'm here to win your money." Feng Bujue replied calmly.
"Ha!" Jin Mianchou laughed dryly, "Ridiculous!" He shouted suddenly, "Is there any difference between this scene and the one just now?"
"Yes..." Feng Bujue replied in a deep voice, "Just now I played with you in the 'Field of Computing' and got to know your second-rate nature... Hehe..." He gave a strange laugh, "And now ... It's time to invite you to the 'gambling field' to have fun."(.)
