I watched Er Chuang’s short video, and everything went numb!

[Have you ever wondered why the first prize of scratch tickets is so "small"? ]

[First of all, you need to understand a term: the return rate, which is the percentage of the total winnings of the lottery tickets in a prize group to the total face value of the lottery tickets. ]

[Take the "Dream of Dreams" scratch ticket as an example. The price of a single lottery ticket is 20 yuan. With 1 million lottery tickets as a prize group, the total face value of the lottery tickets is 20 million yuan. ]

[The official description shows that the total prize money included in a prize group is 13 million yuan, so the return rate is 65%. 】

The bullet screen flew out:

"If that's the case, it means that even if a person buys all the scratch tickets, he will definitely lose 35% of the money, right?"

"Reply-Yes, that's right. Almost all lotteries have this mechanism, but the return rate may be different."

"Reply-So that's the case. I really thought about it before. If I buy all the lottery tickets, will I make a profit?"

"Reply-How is that possible? This kind of probability game has long ruled out this possibility."

"Reply-If it can be done, someone would have done it long ago."

"..."

The plane of Taizu of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed dumbly.

He felt that the idea of ​​"buying all the lottery tickets" of later generations was a bit naive.

It is obviously impossible to make money.

No matter who issues the lottery tickets, they will definitely avoid this situation.

……

[Maybe many guys heard about this 65% for the first time, so where did the remaining 35% of the money go? ]

[At present, the issuance of lottery tickets nationwide is supervised and managed by the Ministry of Finance. ]

[According to regulations, 65% of the sales revenue of scratch-off lottery tickets is used as a bonus, 20% as public welfare, and 15% as issuance funds. ]

[The public welfare fund is easy to understand, it is used to promote social development. ]

[The public welfare fund received by the welfare lottery is used by the Ministry of Civil Affairs in various welfare projects, such as caring for the elderly, helping the disabled "833" people, etc. ]

[The public welfare fund of sports lottery is spent by the General Administration of Sports on national fitness and organizing events. The specific spending projects will be announced on time every year. ]

[As for the 15% issuance fund, it is the cost of making and transporting these lottery tickets, plus the sales commission of the distribution points. 】

【According to business analysis agencies, the commission rate for lottery shop owners is between 7% and 9%. 】

Barrage flew out:

"In fact, lottery can be traced back to the ancient Roman period, which was used to raise idle money in society for urban infrastructure construction or national defense preparation purposes."

"Reply-that is the prototype. The modern lottery originated in Italy in the 15th century and was issued by the Venetian city-state to raise war funds."

"Reply-in fact, lottery has another name, painlessTaxation has been widely used in various Western countries for a long time. "

"Reply--When did China have the highest tax?"

"Reply--The Luzon bills publicly issued in 1894."

"Reply--This is not an official one. The Hubei donation bills approved by the Governor of Huguang, Zhang Zhidong, should be the highest official one. ”

“…”

The dimension of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Liu Che listened to the narration on the giant screen in the sky, and when he saw the words “painless taxation”, his eyes suddenly lit up.

He was very interested in anything that could help increase the country’s fiscal revenue.

Naturally, he also had the idea of ​​issuing lottery tickets.

All countries in later generations did this, which proved to be a very useful means.

And, from the experience of later generations, lottery tickets can sell very well, with extremely large sales.

Even if it is based on the 20% rate of return in later generations, it is a very terrifying number.

If the country does this business, it will definitely increase a lot of income for the country.

The more Liu Che thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was feasible.

“It can only be issued by the state, and private issuance must be strictly prohibited.”

“What is the return rate? Also continue the practice of later generations? ”

Liu Che looked at the huge screen in the sky while thinking about the details of the matter in his mind.

In fact.

It is not just Liu Che in the dimension of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

In many other dynasties, many emperors have had the idea of ​​letting the court issue lottery tickets.

……

[Now you know why more and more lottery shops are opening. Whether customers win or lose, the boss can make money.]

[Let’s put aside where the money goes.]

[Let’s look at the proportion. Lottery players can only get 65% of the bonus issued from a group of lottery tickets anyway.]

[If we regard the people who buy lottery tickets as a whole, they will definitely lose money overall.]

……

Many ancient people in all dynasties nodded.

They all understood this now.

……

[In addition, there is another more critical data: the winning rate. ]

[It is the probability of you scratching the prize. ]

[Let's take "Dream of Dreams" as an example. According to official public data, each set of 1 million scratch lottery tickets contains 390,352 prizes, and a scratch lottery contains 30 possible winning patterns. ]

[However, most of these are small prizes, 240,000 20 yuan prizes, 6.4 30 yuan prizes, 4 40 yuan prizes, and only one first prize of 1 million gold and 50,000 second prizes. ]

[You can see directly that the probability of winning is only one in a million. ]

……

"Ah?! ”

Many ancient people in all dynasties were shocked.

They thought the winning rate was too low.

At the same time.

Many ancient people also had questions in their minds:

"Do the people who buy scratch tickets in the future know this probability?"

"If they knew, why would they be so keen on buying scratch tickets?"

……

[Other scratch tickets have slightly different details from "Dream of Dreams", but the general logic is the same. ]

[Most of the return bonuses are split into a huge number of small prizes. ]

[Let's take the double-color ball for comparison. ]

[The rules of this game are to shake out 6 red balls from 33 and one blue ball from 16 each time. ]

[Buying a double-color ball lottery ticket means choosing 6 red ball numbers from 1 to 33, and then choosing a basketball number from 1 to 16, and then betting. ]

……

The plane of Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Di thought this game was interesting.

But he thought about it again and found that if he wanted to issue lottery tickets in the Ming Dynasty, it would be more convenient and easier to operate in the form of scratch tickets.

……

[For the lowest sixth prize, you only need to guess the correct basketball number, and the winning rate is 1/6, equivalent to 6.25%, and the single bet prize is only 5 yuan. ]

[For the first prize with a prize of tens of millions, which can make people rich overnight, you need to guess all the red basketball numbers, and the winning probability is about 0.**%. ]

[What level? It is much lower than the probability of being struck by lightning while walking. ]

[Even if the last sixth prize is added to all the previous prizes, the total winning probability of the double-color ball is only about 6.7%. ]

……

Seeing the winning rate of the double-color ball, many ancient people in the past dynasties were silent.

The low winning rate of scratch lottery has shocked them.

But compared with the winning rate of the double-color ball in front of them, it can be said to be conscientious.

The winning rate of the double-color ball was simply outrageously low in the eyes of the ancients!

……

[Comparing the two, you will find that the characteristics of scratch lottery are that the overall winning rate is high, and the small prizes give a lot of money, while the double-color ball has a lower winning rate, and the amount of small prizes is better than nothing, but the amount of the grand prize is extremely high. ]

[In summary, scratch lottery breaks the dream of getting rich overnight into the joy of scratching small prizes, and evenly distributes it to more lottery players. ]

[So, don't say that young people buy scratch lottery tickets to get rich overnight. ]

[People who buy this thing are just simply experiencing the excitement of winning a lot with a small amount, scratching back the money and getting a free lottery. 】

[Scratch a few dozen dollars to experience a little luck, scratch a few hundred dollars to treat yourself to a good meal, scratch thousands of dollars to buy your favorite clothes and shoes, and then continue to be an honest worker with happiness. 】

[Even if you don’t scratch anything, you will only lose money for a cup of milk tea. Not only can you lose weight, but you can also comfort yourself by saying that the scratch card has consumed bad luck and eliminated disasters. 】

……

“I see.”

After reading thisAfter reading this passage, many ancient people in all dynasties suddenly understood why people in later generations like to buy scratch cards.

Tang Taizong's plane.

Li Shimin felt that if this was the case, there would be no problem.

However, I am afraid that some people will become addicted to it.

As soon as this thought came to his mind, Li Shimin felt that he was worrying too much.

If you know that the winning rate of scratch cards is so low, but you still want to indulge in it, then you can only say that this person is hopeless.

Li Shimin thinks that there should be very few such confused people. (To read the exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

……

[Moreover, scratch cards don't require any brains, and you don't have to worry about any routines. Losing money and winning money depends purely on your luck. It is something that anyone can play with. ]

[If you want to manage your finances seriously, you may end up being a leek after a long time and be stuck in it. 】

[Let's tell you a joke. In the second quarter of this year, the total loss of public funds in the entire market was 220 billion, which is exactly the same as the lottery sales in the first five months. 】

[See, are you embarrassed to say that scratch cards are a waste of money? 】[]

[In the current environment, everyone is under great pressure. Find some fun in your own way so as not to be criticized on the pillar of shame. 】

The barrage flew out:

"That's right, it's just buying a scratch card for fun. There's no need to make a big deal about it."

"So-called experts like to use individual cases to represent general phenomena. How many people in reality will be addicted?"

"..."

Many ancient people in the past dynasties nodded and felt that it was indeed the case.

As long as you don't get addicted, just treat it as a pastime, there is nothing wrong with it.

Of course.

If you are completely addicted, it's another matter.

……

[But the UP host still wants to say one more thing. The essence of lottery is still a legal XX. Everyone knows these two words. ]

[Everything should be done in moderation. ]

[Whether it is games and animations, star-chasing travel, or the scratch cards we are talking about today, these things that can make people happy, once you are completely addicted, will quickly consume the family assets you have accumulated through hard work before, and turn from fun into a black hole. ]

[When you want to pursue your victory after winning several times in a row, or when you don’t believe in evil after losing several times in a row, think about the tragic end of gamblers and the 65% return rate of scratch cards..........]

[Remember: small scratches are fun, big scratches are gone. ]

……

For the final conclusion of the video.

Many ancient people in all dynasties agree with this.

For entertainment like scratch cards, you must know when to stop.

……

On the giant screen in the sky.

The video is refreshed.

A new video appears.

[Run, Lord! A great battle of heroes from China's five thousand years! ]

……

In thisAfter the title of the new video appeared, it was followed by a preface.

……

[China has been around for five thousand years, and countless heroic legends have been left in the chapters of history. ]

[When the great magician Liu Xiu has disappeared with the magic of time, the chariot god of Gaoliang River Zhao Guangyi has retired for many years, and the war god Zhu Qizhen of Wala students has finally graduated, people still vaguely remember the golden wars and iron horses of the year. ]

……

The plane of Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Liu Xiu frowned.

He was very unhappy that his name was listed together with Zhao Guangyi and Zhu Qizhen by people in later generations.

In the words of people in later generations, what level are these two people, and they are worthy of being listed together with him?

He has already had a full understanding of the deeds of these two people in previous videos.

In his opinion, if Zhao Guangyi could barely be considered a mediocre person, then Zhu Qizhen was a complete tyrant, and he had to be ranked high.

It was a shame for him to be listed with such a tyrant.

……

[After dinner, there was laughter, and some people asked: If all the heroes of the dynasties in the past 5,000 years were gathered together, who could finally unify the world first? ]

[Today, we open the door of time and space, and the heroes of China for 5,000 years will gather together. ]

[In terms of rules, the founding emperors of each dynasty will become monarchs, and the territories will be arranged randomly. Every civil official and military general summoned will gain the physical and intellectual strength of their peak period.

[Today, a gorgeous dance of hegemony begins. 】

The bullet screen flew out:

"Isn't this just an electronic cricket fight? (Music)"

"It's really just running, lord!"

"When the stars of mankind shine, the heroes of China for five thousand years will fight!"

"..."

Accompanied by narration and bullet screen.

The images of kings, generals, heroes and heroes in Chinese history flashed on the high-altitude giant screen.

Some ancient people from all dynasties looked at this scene, and combined with the content of the narration, they had a rough guess about the content of the next video.

Then.

The ancients became more interested in the content of the next video.

The heroes of China for five thousand years will fight!

They think this is so interesting!

...

The Great Qin Plane.

Two rays of light flashed in Qin Shihuang's eyes.

Isn't this just a super-expanded version of "Seven Kingdoms"?

The founding monarchs of China in various periods brought their civil and military officials to the land of China at the same time to see who can defeat everyone else and unify the world?

"Interesting."

Qin Shihuang looked at the giant screen in the sky with interest.

Through the many videos on the giant screen in the sky, he got to know a lot about many kings, princes and generals in later generations.

Among them, there are some people who are recognized by him. 4.5

Although it is just talk, heI think it's quite interesting.

Of course.

As the first emperor who swept across the world and unified the country, he has absolute confidence that he can become the final winner.

After all, he has already won once in reality!

...

[First, we will go back to January 251 AD, when all forces appeared in China. ]

[In order to ensure relative fairness, we will make the cities where each force is summoned completely random. ]

[Soon, the first round of lotteries for the lords of each dynasty has ended. ]

[Heroes from all walks of life have woken up from their slumbers and returned to the battlefield. ]

[They will participate in this large-scale team-building activity that spans five thousand years of Chinese history. ]

[There is only one goal for this game, which is to be the first to complete the unification of China in the next few decades. 】

【Let's officially start this battle of heroes that spanned 5,000 years. 】

The barrage flew out:

"Golden Edge Silver Corner Straw Belly, I am optimistic about the monarchs at the edge, and most of the monarchs at the four corners will complete the unification."

"Reply-I don't think so. I think whoever takes the land of Jizhou will win."

"Reply-Geography is one aspect, but we also have to look at other aspects, right? For example, the ability of the monarch, the ability of civil officials and generals, etc."

"..."

Seeing this virtual battle of heroes and heroes in China for 5,000 years officially begin.

The spirits of many ancient people in the past dynasties were lifted, and their eyes looking at the giant screen in the sky became more focused.

Although it was just a paper talk by people in later generations, they still found it interesting and were curious about who would win in the end?

Things like Guan Gong fighting Qin Qiong are not only of interest to modern people, but also to ancient people.

Especially the emperors of all dynasties who became contestants, their desire to win was aroused at this moment.

They all wanted to be the final winner! .
