Chapter 89 - Chapter 89 More Data

"Huh?"

Zheng Jie, as if grasping at a lifeline, hurried closer to the big screen to take a look.

Although the current round of the draft was still ongoing, Zheng Jie had completely lost interest.

"Lawyer Lin must know what I'm asking, so this is his answer to me.

"But... this line just seems to be saying that 'players with fewer 'dislikes' are safer.'

"It can indeed cool down the current tense atmosphere to some extent, but it's no help at all in solving the problem of me being falsely accused!

"Did Lawyer Lin not understand what I meant? Impossible, I was so direct!"

Zheng Jie scratched his head in frustration, but he didn't give up. Instead, he continued to analyze the illogical aspects of this sentence.

"Why emphasize having fewer than 5 'dislikes'? Why not fewer than 4, or simply use the number of 'likes' as the standard?

"Hmm... because 5 dislikes can kill someone.

"In other words, so far, there hasn't been a single player who has shown an intent to kill during a meeting without actually having the ability to do so.

"Isn't that perfectly normal? How can you kill someone without 5 dislikes?

"Wait, I get it!

"The ratio isn't important, what's important is the method of filtering for that ratio!

"Bluffing! Even without 5 dislikes, one can still show a clear intent to kill, using bluffing as a means of self-preservation!"

With this thought, Zheng Jie had a sudden realization.

He hadn't quite understood it at first, but he had previously heard Fu Chen talk about some strategies in 'Blood Poker,' so he naturally thought of the possibility of 'bluffing.'

This was precisely the method Lawyer Lin had used in that game.

And during the last meeting, Zhao Duo's reaction upon entering the room further confirmed this from the side.

Zheng Jie didn't have 5 'dislikes,' but the person meeting with him didn't know that.

The intent to kill might bring hostility and misfortune, but if used properly, it could also have other uses.

Then, combining that with the meeting before last, and the one before that...

The different reactions of Zhou Guifen, Jiao Hongtao, and Xue Qi after entering the meeting room also gave Zheng Jie enough inspiration.

...

Data continued to appear on the big screen.

[Zhang Xiaoxia from Community 9 has broadcast a piece of data to all players.]

[As of the current time, in the meeting rooms, the percentage of male players who did not agree to evenly split the 30,000 minutes of visa time is: '85%'.]

[Jiao Hongtao from Community 8 has broadcast a piece of data to all players.]

[Among the female players I have met with, the percentage who showed clear disgust before starting a conversation is: '61%'.]

[Fang Wencong from Community 1 has broadcast a piece of data to all players.]

[As of the current time, in the meeting rooms, the percentage of female players who have actively asked male players for exchange coupons is: '75%'.]

The continuous stream of broadcasts startled Zheng Jie.

More and more people were starting to post this kind of data, perhaps out of anger or to stir up trouble, but regardless, it was a very bad phenomenon.

And some of the data did indeed startle Zheng Jie.

For example, the 75% figure meant that out of 20 female players, only 5 had not actively asked male players for exchange coupons.

Combined with the two previous pieces of data sent by Fang Wencong, the intended message was crystal clear.

"Strange, Fang Wencong has sent so many messages, has no one reported or tried to murder him?

"The more broadcasts someone sends, the fewer 'likes' and 'dislikes' they have, so he should be in a rather unsafe position.

"Could it be that he found a stable meeting partner?

"Even someone like him can find one! Then why can't I!"

Zheng Jie began to doubt his life.

[Qian Li from Community 1 has broadcast a piece of data to all players.]

[As of the current time, the percentage of male players who made promises to female players but did not fulfill them is: '76%'.]

Seeing this data, Zheng Jie was stunned for a moment.

76%? That high?

Doesn't that mean only 5 out of 20 male players are honest?

But on second thought, that wasn't right, because if it were 15/20, it would be impossible to get the number 76%.

"I get it!

"The denominator for this percentage isn't the number of male players, but the number of promises made!

"In other words, one male player can make many promises but never fulfill any of them, which would seriously inflate this percentage.

"If you count by person, it definitely wouldn't be this high.

"However, this data is very misleading."

The number 76% was just a little bit higher than 75%. If many people, in their anxiety, didn't have time to think and failed to notice the anomaly in this data, it would completely counteract the effect of the previous data.

So what if 75% of female players asked for exchange coupons? 76% of male players make empty promises they don't keep!

It's six of one and half a dozen of the other, and you're even 1% worse!

After seeing these two pieces of data, male and female players would still stand on their respective sides and draw completely opposite conclusions.

What was worse was that every community was posting data.

To prove themselves right, to find justification for retaliation, or to unite with their own gender, players began to consider using their surplus resources to broadcast, fanning the flames for more revenge killings.

For many male players who had lost their minds, broadcasting to encourage other male players with 'dislikes' to actively kill female players would make themselves safer.

The same logic applied to many female players who had lost their minds.

Unable to communicate with players from their own community, they were completely unable to execute any team strategies and could only act on their own ideas like headless flies.

Often, two players from the same community would even do completely opposite things.

[Performer No. 1 has received a total of 14 'Interesting' votes, earning an additional 1 'Like'.]

[Performer No. 2 has received a total of 16 'Interesting' votes, earning an additional 1 'Like'.]

Although the number of likes for the two draft performers still hadn't exceeded 20, compared to before, the probability of being mindlessly clicked as 'Interesting' was higher.

The division was still intensifying.

[Lin Si-Zhi from Community 17 has broadcast three pieces of data to all players.]

[In the first 4 hours, the percentage of times Community 1 player Gao Jialiang chose 'You Pay' in the meeting room was: '83%'.]

[In the first 4 hours, after Community 1 player Gao Jialiang chose 'You Pay' in the meeting room, the percentage of times he reached an agreement with the other player was: '100%'.]

[In the first 4 hours, after Community 1 player Fang Wencong entered the meeting room, the percentage of times he pressed the payment button before the other party was: '100%'.]

"Huh? It's from Lawyer Lin, and why did he send three at once!

"Does Lawyer Lin still have enough 'likes'? Won't he be in danger himself?

"But considering how many likes he's gotten, he should be able to easily find trustworthy matching partners, so he should be safe."

Zheng Jie quickly moved closer to the big screen, frowning as he watched carefully.

To broadcast three pieces of data at once, there must be some specific meaning behind them.

Although any piece of data could be broadcast for free after looking it up, Lawyer Lin had most likely filtered them.

If he just sent them randomly without filtering, he wouldn't be able to convey a specific message to the outside world.

Zheng Jie guessed that it wasn't just players from Community 17 now; smarter players from other communities, like Lu Xinyi, were probably also waiting for Lawyer Lin to send new broadcasts.

But... what exactly did these three broadcasts mean?

The handsome Gao Jialiang has a high probability of pressing the [You Pay] button during meetings? And the other party almost always agrees?

There's nothing strange about that, he might have negotiated with the other party.

With a face as handsome as his, as long as he calmly discussed it with his blind date, how many women could refuse him.

When women face a highly attractive man, they definitely won't apply the same standards as they would to an ordinary man..

Although Fang Wencong's data seemed a bit strange at first glance, Zheng Jie couldn't figure out what was wrong with it for the time being.

So what if he pressed the payment button before the other party, couldn't it just be that he was quick with his hands?

The game didn't say who had to press the button first.

This data was all from the first 4 hours, and it was all about paying the room fee. Was this important?

The game version has long been updated, who cares about that trivial room fee anymore, it's only 200 minutes of visa time.

What everyone cares about now are likes and dislikes
