God's imitator

Chapter 420 Reasons for the Choice

Zhou Guifen said matter-of-factly, "Of course we should vote for Xiao Cai, right?"

"Although Yuting's performance was also quite good, the core of the game is that you have to enter the game and lead the team, so we definitely have to choose the best of the best."

"Xiao Cai left a deep impression on me in 'The Kingdom of the Tycoons' and 'Simple Q&A,' making me feel a sense of security like never before."

"You don't need to think about anything, just do what he asks, and you'll win."

"Isn't this the kind of person we're looking for when selecting the core of a game?"

"What Boss Wang said makes some sense, but we can't let emotions cloud our judgment on such an important matter."

"What's there to hesitate about? Isn't that what you think too?"

Dai Yifan hesitated, "Well, how should I put it..."

"Boss Wang didn't come to me, but the more I thought about it, the more conflicted I became."

“Brother Cai also helped me win in ‘Simple Q&A’, so I think it’s definitely the right thing to do to vote for him.”

"However, Sister Yang's remarks made me hesitate again."

"Let me share my thoughts. They may not be correct. Aunt Zhou, if you disagree, please point them out."

Zhou Guifen nodded: "Okay."

Dai Yifan organized his thoughts for a moment: "Aunt Zhou, look, our community currently has three core games, right?"

"Attorney Lin is an all-rounder and very reliable, that goes without saying."

"Brother Wang is also very capable, especially in allocation-type games. He's the core of the game, helping everyone earn more visa time, and we all agree with that."

"But if the third core player is Cai Ge, wouldn't that be a bit redundant?"
"They are essentially the same type of player, both skilled in economic and calculation-based allocation games, but these types of games probably only make up about a third of their game time."

"And what about the most dangerous trial-type games? They basically don't participate in those."

"Think about it, isn't that right?"

Zhou Guifen paused for a moment, then thought carefully: "It seems that's indeed the case."

This was quite evident in the "lifting game," where Tsai Chih-yuan hesitated for a moment but didn't participate.

Previously, when faced with relatively dangerous selection or trial-type games, Wang Yongxin almost never volunteered to participate.

Dai Yifan continued, "So, if we choose Brother Cai, will this situation occur:"
"Neither he nor Brother Wang participate in dangerous selection or trial-type games."

"They were both eager to participate in the game of allocating time to earn visas."

"Unless it's a game like 'The Kingdom of the Tycoons' where everyone is involved, it would be suitable for them to each lead a team, but that's not a common situation, is it?"
"And even if we do encounter one, can't we just have Brother Cai temporarily take care of it?"
"Of course, Brother Cai helped me win before, so it might not be the right thing to say. But I think, Aunt Zhou, we still need to consider this issue from the perspective of the average player in the community and from our own interests."

"Besides ability, we also need to choose people who are truly willing to help us, right?"

Zhou Guifen nodded silently: "Hmm... if that's the case, I think Officer Cao was really the most suitable candidate."

"Hey."

She sighed silently and said, "Actually, Fu Chen is a good kid. Having him around in trial-type games makes me feel very at ease."

"If he hadn't unknowingly helped Shen Xing share the punishment in this game, Shen Xing would have been locked out for three rounds, which would have been really dangerous..."

Dai Yifan chimed in, "Yes, Aunt Zhou, just like Sister Yang said in her speech, trial-type games often test not intelligence and scheming, but goodwill, cooperation, and courage. "Even the smartest person, if they dare not enter a trial-type game and only choose to protect themselves, then their intelligence is meaningless and will have the opposite effect."

"I came in in place of Officer Cao. Although I've never met him, based on my previous gaming experience and everyone's descriptions, he is indeed the best candidate for the third core of the game."

"Although Brother Fu Chen is lacking in ability, he can make up for it with courage."

"But the problem now is that we don't have those two options anymore; we can only choose between Brother Cai and Sister Yang."

"From the perspective of a trial-style game, although Sister Yang is not as good as Officer Cao and Fu Chen, she is still a better choice than most, right?"

Zhou Guifen thought about it seriously: "Hmm... that makes sense."

"Yuting has indeed been working hard to help me throughout this game. Whether it was providing me with funds at the first opportunity or passing on information through the funds and implying that Fu Yujun and I should cooperate to transfer 'opposition votes', she has played a role."

"The courage to actively sign up for trial-type and elimination-type games is indeed very valuable."

"But... it's human nature to seek advantage and avoid harm. To criticize Xiao Cai for that is a bit... "

Dai Yifan shook his head: "Aunt Zhou, I'm not being harsh on Brother Cai."

"If we really have to say something, did Sister Yang enter this game without any ulterior motives? Could it be that she wanted to compete for the core of the game, which is why she took the risk to enter?"
"But we can't think of it that way. In terms of the result, Sister Yang got in, but Brother Cai didn't."

"So next time we encounter a similar game, Sister Yang is still more likely to participate than Brother Cai, right?"

Zhou Guifen couldn't think of a reason to refute it: "Hmm."

Dai Yifan continued, "Besides that, there's one more thing, which I just thought of."

"Brother Wang and Brother Cai have something in common: they have both been tried together in the 'King's Trial'."

"Therefore, they have no reason to get involved in other people's trial games."

"Although everyone says that the possibility of a 'second trial' cannot be ruled out, such a situation has not occurred so far."

Even if it exists, the probability is very, very low.

"Isn't this just like the 'special punishment' in the 'lifting game'?"

He paused slightly, then continued:
In the "Lifting Game", who will actively participate in sharing the "exclusive punishment"? Apart from people like Fu Chen, it is of course the players who have not yet experienced the "exclusive punishment", because if they help others share the punishment, then others may share the punishment for them later.

"Since Chen Ran was the first to suffer the exclusive punishment, she had no reason to help others share the burden afterward, because it had nothing to do with her anymore."

"She was moved by Fu Chen and took the initiative to help him. This is a low-probability event and goes against human nature."

"Isn't the trial game just an even bigger 'exclusive punishment'?"

“In our community, those who have already experienced the trial game, like Brother Wang and Brother Cai, will gain almost no benefit from participating in other people’s trial games, only risks.”

"But Sister Yang hasn't entered her own trial game yet. Right now, she's helping others as much as possible. When her trial game comes, others will also help her as much as possible."

"Therefore, Sister Yang is much more enthusiastic about this than Brother Cai."

Zhou Guifen nodded in realization: "Yes, what you said makes sense."

"But... isn't that a bit unfair to Xiao Cai?"
“He is clearly more capable and has helped us earn a lot of visa processing time. Will he find it hard to accept losing to Yuting like this?”

"If you dampen his enthusiasm like this, and he chooses to protect himself later, wouldn't that be..."
