1058 Las Vegas
"Mr. Xia is really knowledgeable. www.biquge.info After listening to his story, Liu Dehua and Liang Jiahui both said with a smile.
Zhong Chuhong also looked at him with admiration, this little man can always bring her too many surprises.
Summer smiled slightly, all this knowledge he had gained from watching the news in his previous life.
In the previous life, the Internet was developed, and there was a big explosion of information, and you could know all the things in the world without leaving home. is in response to the old saying, "If you don't go out, you will know the world." ”
And people in the 80s were still relatively closed to information. Unless you are interested in Las Vegas and go to a bookstore to buy books on this subject, you will not be exposed to this information at all. Therefore, purely in terms of the amount of information read, the people in the previous life far exceeded the people in the 80s.
"Let's go to Las Vegas this time, and if you want to go to the casino to play two, you can play two, and if you don't want to play, you can go to the theater to see the show. Or rent a small plane and see the Grand Canyon as well. Summer said with a smile again.
"Hmm. Hearing him say this, everyone nodded.
……
The next day, everyone flew to Las Vegas together.
After attending the live TV news broadcast "Good Morning, Las Vegas" in the morning, and then attending a fan meeting, they are all loyal fans of the summer "Chainsaw".
After leaving the event, William said to everyone, "Alright, everyone, it's next three hours of free time, you can wander around and relax." ”
However, friendly reminder, although Las Vegas has good security, there is no guarantee that any gambler will be red-eyed and decide to take a risk. So don't go to a place that is too remote, and always keep an eye on your wallet. ”
"Also, although there are many luxury stores in Las Vegas, the taxes here are relatively heavy, so it is not recommended that you shop here. If you really want to shop, you can wait until tomorrow when we go to Montana. There is a consumption tax exemption and everything is cheaper. ”
Xia nodded, and then asked Zhong Chuhong, "Sister Hong, where are you going to play?"
"I didn't think about it. Ah Tian, where you go to play, I will go to play. Zhong Chuhong said wisely.
"What about the two of you?" Xia asked Liu Dehua and Liang Jiahui again.
"We're going to see a circus show here, and I've heard it's all over the country. Liang Jiahui nodded and said.
He had already inquired with William on the way here, and it was said that there was a circus hotel here, and there were very wonderful circus performances in it, and it was said that it was twenty or thirty years old, and it was quite famous.
"Okay, then let's separate first, play our own games, and finally come here and assemble. Summer smiled and said, "William, you stay with the two of them, don't let them both get lost." Robertson, follow me and help me be a guide. ”
"Mr. Xia, I'm familiar with it here, so I'll accompany you. When William heard this, he hurriedly volunteered.
Summer is the boss, and he is also a very rich big boss, such a big man is worth getting close to. Liang Jiahui and Liu Dehua are just two little actors, and there is nothing to be done by their side.
"Well, then, Robertson, you accompany Andy and Ah Hui. William, you're here to help me be a guide. Seeing that he was so positive, Summer was stunned for a moment and then nodded.
"Okay, boss. "Robertson would have loved to be around the summer.
Because he is Summer's assistant, all his power comes from Summer. If he can't even get close to Summer's side, then what power does he have? But since Xia had already commanded, he was too embarrassed to argue anymore, so he nodded reluctantly.
After Robertson took Liu Dehua and Liang Jiahui away, Xia also turned his head to Zhong Chuhong and said, "Sister Hong, let's go too." ”
"Well, where are you going?" Zhong Chuhong nodded and asked suspiciously.
"When you come to Las Vegas, of course, you have to go to the casino, otherwise, it will be a trip for nothing. Summer laughed.
Zhong Chuhong smiled and nodded. Small gambling is pleasant, big gambling hurts. It doesn't hurt to play two once in a while and have some fun. Like her mother, she often plays mahjong with her neighbors in the corridor now, winning or losing only a few dozen Hong Kong dollars, and she can use her brain and pass the boring time, which is a very good thing.
"Let's go, take us to the busiest casino here. Summer then instructed William.
"Good. William readily agreed, and then drove the two to Caesar's Palace. It's the largest resort in Las Vegas and the biggest casino in the area.
……
When you enter the casino, you will see the brightly lit and brilliant casino hall, as well as the noisy and noisy crowd coming and going.
In the huge gambling hall, there are slot machines, gambling tables, roulette wheels, etc., everything you need, and you can't see the edge at a glance.
"Wow, it's so much bigger than the Lisboa Casino. Zhong Chuhong exclaimed in surprise.
Summer nodded, although he had never been to the Lisboa Casino, he had never eaten pork, at least he had seen a pig run. As the most famous casino in Macau, it has often appeared in Hong Kong films.
"It's the United States. He laughs.
"Mr. Xia, what do you want to play? slots, stud, blackjack, Texas hold'em, baccarat, or roulette?" asked William with great interest. As soon as he entered the casino hall and felt the hot atmosphere, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
"I'll take a look before I speak. Summer smiled slightly. In fact, he doesn't like gambling, and this time he just wanted to investigate and accumulate material for future gambling films.
"Uh...... All right. William wanted to have a good time with him, but now he was disappointed when he heard him say this.
Summer then took Zhong Chuhong and William to hang out in the casino.
Seeing these people, black and white, male and female, old and young, all concentrating on gambling, bent on making a fortune at the gambling table, I couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in the summer.
There is a good saying, nine out of ten gambles lose! Not to mention those who deliberately cheat money, even those games launched by professional casinos have carefully calculated the probability in advance. The win rate of the casino is all over 50%, and even if a few people are proficient in gambling or have a lot of luck and win a lot of money, it will not make the casino lose money.
Because if other gamblers lose, they will be able to lose the game. Coupled with the exemplary effect of these winners, more people will come to patronize, and the casino business will only get better and better.
Ten losses and nine losses, this kid understands the reason, these people don't understand. Or even if they understand, they stubbornly think that they are one-tenth of the money they win, and spend all their possessions on it, which is really sad. What's more, in order to repay gambling debts, owe usury, and finally bankrupt the family, the wife is separated, and the family is ruined, which is simply a great tragedy in the world.
"Ah Tian, what are you thinking?" Zhong Chuhong couldn't help but ask with concern when he saw that Xia Xia's brows were tightly knit, his face was heavy, and he sighed from time to time.
"Sister Hong, seeing these crazy gamblers reminds me of my father. Back then, he was too addicted to gambling, and as a result, his family almost ruined. Summer sighed.
When Zhong Chuhong heard him say this, she couldn't help but feel sad in her heart, "Okay, don't be sad, that's all in the past." Now that your uncle has changed his ways, and you are now successful in your career and family, why bother thinking about those troubles. ”
"Hmm. Summer nodded, "Okay, let's not talk about it." Let's go around, it's really boring here. Look at these people, what kind of gambling are they doing, the more they gamble, the more they lose, and sooner or later they will lose their lives. ”
"yes, then we won't gamble, anyway, we will lose more and win less. Why don't we go to Andy and Ah Hui and go to the show with them, okay?" After Zhong Chuhong saw that he came here, he reminded him of the sad things of summer, and it was not good to say anything like "small gambling pleasure" at the moment.
"Well, I'll go later. Summer nodded, "But let me finish this first." ”
"Don't you want to see these people, these things, what else are you going to visit?" Zhong Chuhong asked suspiciously. She thought that Summer hated seeing these gamblers, and hated the drunken and dreamy atmosphere of the casino.
"Gather some materials, and think about making a casino film in the future. Summer smiled slightly.
"Casino?" Zhong Chuhong was stunned.
"Yes. See life and death on the gambling table, human nature on the gambling table, and morality on the gambling table...... Is there a place in the world where there is more intrigue and deceit than on the gambling table? What a good story material, and it will be very popular when it is put on the screen. Summer said with a confident smile.
In fact, there are movies about gambling all over the world, such as "Winning Blackjack", "Ocean's Eleven", "Rain Man" and so on. In Japan, there are "Gambling Revelations" and "Zatoichi" series. There are also gambling movies in the UK, such as "Two Big Smoking Guns" and so on.
The reason why gambling themes are so popular can only be said that human nature is the same. The idea of getting something for nothing is found in Hong Kong, in the United States, in Japan, in the United Kingdom, and all over the world.
"Ah Tian, you are really amazing. I now understand why you can write so many beautiful stories. Zhong Chuhong heard him say this and said with admiration.
In the summer, even when he was playing, he was thinking about collecting materials and making a movie in the future, what kind of work attitude is this! With such dedication, it's no wonder that he can make up good stories.
Summer smiled and was about to be modest, but at this moment, he saw many people rushing to one place, and some people shouted, "That old man is here again!" and "The Chinese is here again." ”
"Let's go, let's see. Hearing them shout like this, Xia and Zhong Chuhong glanced at each other, and then both nodded.
