God's Imitator-Chapter 296: Contract Cooperation
Cai Zhiyuan looked at Zheng Jie and Dai Yifan, especially Zheng Jie, "Besides that, I hope someone will volunteer to become a 'Free Person' and go dismantle the '4-person room'.
"As for the other person, it doesn't matter which card you take. Just enter the same room as Yang Yuting."
Zheng Jie couldn't quite keep up for a moment, "Wait, what does dismantling the 4-person room mean? Didn't you say it's a trap? I don't quite understand."
Cai Zhiyuan didn't explain in detail, "This task isn't that difficult. After entering the room, you'll have plenty of time to think and will definitely understand.
"But explaining it takes time.
"You two just need to tell me whether you dare take this risk or not.
"If you dare, I'll take extra time to tell you what to do. If you don't dare, I won't waste the time.
"We can also choose to give up this part of the earnings. That's fine too."
Zheng Jie's expression looked somewhat conflicted. He looked at Dai Yifan, but obviously, Dai Yifan was even less confident than him.
Whether looking at earnings from the first phase or the order they entered the community, Zheng Jie had no reason to push this kind of thing onto a newcomer.
Thinking of this, Zheng Jie made up his mind, "Alright, I'll give it a try!
"After so many games, I feel like I should have made some progress."
Cai Zhiyuan nodded, "Good, then I'll give you a 'Free Person' identity.
"I'll definitely enter the room later than you. I'll tell you specifically when to enter the '4-person room'.
"But it's also possible that free persons from other communities might get there first. In that case, just give up.
"As for specifically what to do, I'll take time to explain it to you alone later."
As Cai Zhiyuan spoke, he completed the corresponding operations on the console, giving Zheng Jie the 'Free Person' identity.
Before long, Zhou Guifen had already returned, and Yang Hui also came over with the players from Community 8.
Cai Zhiyuan gestured for Yang Yuting to show the number card with '2' written on it and asked, "You don't have any cards in the top 3, right?"
Yang Hui answered quite frankly, "No, we don't."
Cai Zhiyuan wasn't surprised by this. The other party coming over to cooperate so readily had already proven this point to some extent.
"Then let's directly sign a contract. Both communities will share earnings and losses.
"Whether earnings or losses, our Community 17 will take 60%, and you'll take 40%."
Yang Hui thought briefly, "Acceptable."
Community 17 had a number card that could guarantee becoming room owner, and had cooperated with Community 8 before. Taking more earnings while bearing more risk, this proposal was very reasonable.
The console had a function for signing contracts. Cai Zhiyuan quickly adjusted the contract's distribution information. After Yang Hui confirmed it was correct, they each scanned their bracelets and the contract was signed.
According to the game rules, contracts could only be signed between two communities, and only once.
Therefore, the interests of the two communities would be deeply bound together, providing a good foundation for cooperation and mutual trust.
On Community 15's side, they seemed to have also found Community 13. They would most likely also sign a contract, though the specific distribution was unclear.
As for Community 1, they could only be left out. According to the game rules, this couldn't be helped.
However, they hadn't given up because of this and were still working hard to think of strategies.
At this point, Community 17 and Community 8 had formed a group of 10 people. The earliest number card was 2, and they had a total of 4 free persons.
Cai Zhiyuan glanced at the time again and said, "Next, let me emphasize the specific reward and punishment values when answering questions.
"These values could only be tested in the first phase. After entering the second phase, because all rewards and punishments will double, there won't be any remainders of 500, so it will be hard to determine the specific values.
"Moreover, there's no communication throughout the second phase. Even if you learn the values, you can't share them anymore.
"The values I tested are absolutely accurate. If what you tested is different, still go by mine.
"Besides this, there are a few other points that need special attention. After you've memorized these values, I'll emphasize them separately."
...
While Cai Zhiyuan was laying out strategies for Community 17 and Community 8, the other communities were also busy laying out their strategies.
The two players who voluntarily entered to lead Community 1 were Gao Jialiang and Qian Li.
From the current situation, the communities that got the earlier number cards were Community 15 and Community 17, but neither of these communities prioritized choosing Community 1 as their cooperation partner.
This resulted in the other four communities signing contracts in pairs, with only Community 1 being left out.
This couldn't be helped.
On one hand, both Gao Jialiang and Qian Li had performed poorly in the first phase with low earnings. The players who were in rooms with them were very clear about this, so they weren't optimistic about their abilities.
On the other hand, the negative impact from the 'Blind Date Game' continued. Community 1 was often in this kind of isolated state within games.
However, for the players of Community 1, they were used to it by now.
Things being as they were, they could only think of strategies based on the current situation.
Qian Li consoled them, "It's fine. Signing a contract isn't necessarily a good thing.
"While two communities share earnings, they also share losses.
"This means that after signing a contract, you might very well be dragged down by the other community.
"This distribution-type game is different from previous ones. The punishments are too severe.
"If a player's question-setting intent is figured out when serving as question setter, in a room with many people, they could even lose over a hundred thousand visa time in one go.
"Once such a huge deficit appears, it will implicate all five people in the community.
"Now the other four communities have clearly formed two groups. It will inevitably be one winner and one loser.
"The two losing communities might very well lose everything and all be in debt.
"As long as we adopt strategies as stable as possible, we can at least strive for middle-tier earnings."
The other players all nodded. Although Qian Li's statement had consoling elements, it did make some sense.
Qian Li continued, "Let me first briefly go over the specific reward and punishment values tested in the first phase.
"Because the answer to each question is affected by three factors, if you remember the values incorrectly, it could very likely cause personal or team strategies to completely fail."
The other players nodded one after another. This was a matter of course.
Because when each player answered questions, they had to consider whether the earnings would be positive or negative. If they remembered a value incorrectly and thought it would be positive when it actually turned out negative, everything would be thrown into chaos.
It might even affect subsequent team strategies, leading to a complete loss.
Therefore, determining the values was the first priority.
As Qian Li spoke, the others cross-referenced their own answering experiences from the first phase, working hard to memorize.
