The first players to come on the field are the man in black suits from the lady's side and the representative of another company, let's call them Party A.

Representative A is a middle-aged man with short hair. He looks quite calm and does not look like a gambler, but rather a businessman.

People who gamble all have a certain degree of gambler's madness.

After the cards were dealt to both parties, the man in the black suit quickly shuffled the cards several times in his hands before unfolding them under the table and opening them.

Is it to prevent the opponent from directly judging the card based on the position of the card?

A very cautious approach.

Since two decks of cards were taken out, the order is probably the same.

When the gambling game started, the lady was no longer in the mood to give Naoki a cold look, but instead paid close attention to the game with a little nervousness.

This consultant was an expert in gaming whom they had hired.

Tonight's victory will most likely depend on this game.

If the black-suited consultant lost, he would let this girl, who was just called at random, take over just to give it a try.

In the first round, both sides put down their cards after thinking for a minute or two.

Because they cannot affect the gambling and prevent cheating such as peeking at the cards, those who watch the game can only be in the area on their own company's side.

Naoki saw the black suit consultant choose the Knight card.

Well, it’s the same strategy she thought of at the beginning.

The Knight card is the second-to-last card and the only one that has two.

If you choose the knight, you will still have four cards to choose from in the next round.

It is a relatively safe approach.

If you don't know your opponent's playing style, it's best to test this card first.

"Open the cards!"

When the dealer sees that both cards have been placed, he announces the opening of the game.

The man in the black suit is, as expected, a knight.

And the middle-aged man—turned out to be a general!

Because the general is greater than the knight, the man in black suit loses in the first round!

The first card is actually a general.

The man in the black suit frowned and consoled himself in his heart that although he lost the first round, he still had four types of cards to play, which gave him an advantage.

The lady's face turned even uglier when she saw that the man in black suit lost the first round.

Naoki noticed out of the corner of his eye the smug smiles that the people from Company A were giving them.

If the two parties were not too far apart, the other party would probably be sarcastic or humble in person.

second round.

This time, the man in the black suit thought for an especially long time.

The opponent no longer has a general. The only one who can be bigger than his general and knights is the king. Will he show up as a king?

If the King is not played, the Knight cannot win against his own General and Knight.

In this case, just send out the Paupers to defeat the opponent.

But if the opponent chooses the knight in the middle, wouldn’t it be a waste for you to just send out the pauper?

At that time, there will be no poor people who can defeat the rival king and they will be completely at a disadvantage.

In the end, the man in black suit chose the general.

At this moment, Naoki heard a magnetic female voice coming from the headset.

[It's a very mediocre style of play.]

[However, according to the decision made in the first round, his opponent is the risk-taker. This round, his opponent will play the King, so he loses.]

Naoki was silent, almost forgetting that the camera was still connected. She ignored her cold girlfriend, Sachiko Jura.

"Both sides open their cards."

The man in the black suit glared at the man in front of him, but the man's gaze still looked calm.

Both players open their hands at the same time.

The man in the black suit is the general, and the opponent's card is exactly as Sachiko Juraku said, a king holding a scepter.

Now it's bad.

Lost two games in a row.

The man in the black suit turned pale.

Although the opponent only has two knights and a pauper left, I still have a king, a knight and a pauper left.

The opponent's knight will only lose if it meets your king, and if the pauper loses to your knight, the opponent's last knight can still defeat your pauper.

This makes it three wins against two wins, and we still lost.

This is still the best case scenario. If it is a knight against a knight, or a pauper against a pauper, you will lose more.

It's impossible to win.

The victory was secured in just two innings.

There is no need to continue the next competition.

A middle-aged man from Company A finally smiled: "I guess there's no need to compete anymore."

"Of course, if my opponent wants to continue the bet, I can also complete it."

The man in the black suit lowered his head and didn't answer. I never expected that he would be so confident and finish the game in just five minutes.

The game ended before even the last round.

Naoki glanced at the lady, whose expression was not much better than the one in the black suit, but she had to maintain her composure, so she didn't lose her temper on the spot.

Not only did they lose the first battle, but they were also defeated twice in a row by their opponents. This blow was really hard to accept.

Chapter 74 exposes Sachiko Jule’s bad taste.

The second game is about to begin, with Company A facing Company B. The outcome of this game is important to Companies A and B, and also crucial to Company C where the lady works.

Because if Company A defeats Company B again, then Company C will not have to fight against Company B, both sides will lose directly, and the project will eventually be handed over to Company A.

Therefore, the lady is also very concerned about the process and outcome of the second game.

The consultant in the black suit came back dejectedly, not daring to look up at the lady. He just kept apologizing, saying that he had let the lady down.

The lady didn't pay him much attention; she only cared about the outcome. Since she had already lost, it would be useless to apologize any more.

The man in the black suit also knew this, and after apologizing, he became invisible and stood at the back.

In the second game, as a third party, they can choose a side and watch the game.

Company B automatically stood in the original position of Company C. Considering that they had just lost to Company A, the lady wanted to see the performance of the representative of Company A.

So, Naoki followed the lady to the area of ​​Company A.

The negotiating party represented by Company A this time is very welcoming to the arrival of the lady and others.

"Mrs. Miharu Taki, thank you for letting us win."

The lady chuckled and smiled, "Winning is winning. Your players are stronger than us."

"Mrs. Miharu Taki, what do you think is the most important thing about today's gambling?"

Party A changed the subject.

"Mind reading and decision making?"

Party A nodded. "That's right. The so-called rock-paper-scissors game tests your decision-making ability and your ability to understand your opponent. Isn't this very similar to business?"

“The winners are those who can guess other people’s behavior and understand the world.”

Team A looked at their representative and said, "Your player is so easy to understand. All of his actions are extremely rational. We use this logic to speculate on the laws governing the world."

"In economics, it is always assumed that everyone is absolutely rational, and various conclusions are drawn from this assumption. However, in reality, it is impossible for everyone in this world to be absolutely rational."

The lady had no intention of engaging in a detailed discussion with Party A about the winner's post-victory sermons. She looked toward the competition venue and interrupted the conversation: "Let's begin."

Therefore, everyone from the three parties, ABC, turned their attention to the gambling table.

The representative of Party B was a young man with an unshaven beard. He looked a little decadent and was not dressed very well, just a sports shirt. He looked like a random person pulled from the street.

However, everyone knows that gambling today cannot be so casual.

This person must have something extraordinary about him.

This is easy to see. Being able to remain calm in this situation and not showing any nervousness when deciding to play a card is already better than the average person.

However, this time, Naoki could only see the card choices made by the middle-aged man on Party A.

In the last competition with Party C, the middle-aged man played the general first. Will he do the same this time?

Although most people won't make the same move twice in a row, since this strategy worked last time, it's still feasible to use it again this time.

But the middle-aged man didn't, his hand reached out to the pauper card in the middle!

This is so bold.

Because the Pauper's card can only beat the King's card. Three of the remaining four cards can kill it. If the Pauper's card is lost, there will be no card that can beat the King.

Is this a prediction that the opponent will want to play the King in this round?

It's not completely illogical.

After all, in the first round of his first match, he used the general to take the first round unexpectedly, and his opponent would definitely take countermeasures based on his decision.

If the opponent chooses the king, he can defeat his general, so the middle-aged man wants to choose the pauper and defeat the opponent's king.

At this moment, the representative of Party B had already chosen his cards and was looking at him quietly.

At the last moment, facing the gaze of the decadent young man from Party B, the middle-aged man from Party A hesitated for a moment, changed his mind, and reached for the Knight card.

"Both sides open!"

The dealer calmly pushed the gambling process forward.

Two knights holding swords suddenly appeared in front of the tables of representatives from both sides, knight against knight!

It's a draw!

Naoki raised his eyebrows, that was a close call!

If the middle-aged man really chose the Pauper, then in the first round he would have given away his only card that could defeat the King, and it would have only caused the opponent to lose one of the two Knight cards.

The seemingly decadent young man on Party B, no, maybe he cannot be said to be decadent, he just doesn't seem to care much about such an important bet, he looks decadent.

The young man in the sports shirt on side B took the risk that side A might produce a checkmate again, and chose the knight without batting an eyelid. This kind of courage is not something that ordinary people can have.

If Party A had not changed its cards at the end, Party A would have been in trouble.

However, even if the first round ended in a draw, the risk of losing just now made the middle-aged man feel stressed, and the wrinkles on his forehead were obviously deeper than before.

At this time, the voice of Jule Xingzi came into my ears.

[Naoki, guess what they will do in the next round? ]

Hmm, what will happen next round?

Since Naoki saw the whole process of the middle-aged man almost losing, she felt that the middle-aged man should play it safe. In this case, he would not choose the pauper or the king in the second game. If it was between the knight and the general, the general might defeat the knight and the pauper, and there is only a one in four chance of losing, so he would choose the general.

"I think Side A will choose Checkmate."

Jule Xingzi did not comment and continued to ask.

What about Party B?

"Side B? Honestly, I don't understand him at all. Logically, since there was a tie just now, he should be going for an offensive strategy this time. Perhaps he'll choose the King, who has a three-quarter chance of being undefeated."

Jule Xingzi chuckled.
