Time flew, and soon, it was the last three days of the Alipay card collection event.
"Hey, I got the Sixth Baby card. Hahaha, I got a set!" At work, someone suddenly jumped up and shouted excitedly.
The others looked at him enviously. Why was this kid so lucky? Why couldn't they get it?
"Big Liu, give me the Sixth Baby card. I'll give you a hundred yuan!" A colleague said.
"A hundred yuan? What are you thinking! A hundred million yuan in cash, and you all didn't get it. That means the number of people who got it is very small. I can get at least a few tens of thousands, right? Maybe I can get a few hundred thousand! "Big Liu said proudly.
This time, the others were even more envious. This feeling was like picking up a lottery ticket and hitting the jackpot!
Some people whispered that they were lucky, but they would rather it was others who said that.
"Big Liu, you have to treat everyone. You can't not treat everyone to a meal after getting rich." Another female colleague said.
"Hahaha, no problem, Sister Zhao. It's almost time to get off work. Tomorrow is a weekend. There's nothing else to say. I'll arrange dinner and karaoke tonight. Everyone, go. I'll talk to the manager later. "
"What's with all the noise? You're not off work yet." The door to the manager's office opened, and the company manager walked out to scold everyone. He knew that tomorrow was a weekend, but he couldn't just stop working when there was still more than an hour left.
"Manager, Big Liu has gathered all the cards. He can get a share of the hundred million yuan! He said that he will treat everyone to dinner and karaoke tonight. He was planning to treat you, "Sister Zhao said with a smile.
"Is that so? Thank you. " The manager was smiling on the surface, but he was not very happy on the inside. This was because he had also gathered all the cards.
In the blink of an eye, there was another person who wanted to split the money with him. How could he smile? Originally, he wanted to treat everyone to a meal after receiving the money. It was also considered team building.
Now that he thought about it, he decided not to say anything. He wanted to see how much money he could get. Why did he suddenly have a premonition that the number of people who had gathered the cards would increase?
Fortunately, there were only three days left. It probably wouldn't be too long. However, in his heart, his expectation of splitting the money dropped from hundreds of thousands to tens of thousands.
At that moment, at the headquarters of Alipay, Wu Chih-gang was instructing his subordinates, "Now, release 10,000 Liuwai name cards. An hour later, release another 10,000. According to this pattern, it will be carried out on the dot today."
Feng Yu had said that he wasn't afraid of others discovering the pattern. It was to let some people discover the pattern. Only then would people feel that there was hope to succeed in gathering cards. As a result, some people who were hesitant before would also participate.
This was just like some games that obviously had a bug to level up. Some game companies knew about it, but they wouldn't fix it. Instead, they let the players use the bug to reduce the difficulty of leveling up, so that more players who liked to level up would join the game.
After a period of time, many people used this method to level up quickly. Once the level gap between everyone had widened, they would fix this BUG, and then another BUG would appear. This repeated cycle not only allowed the players to have fun leveling up, but they also had fun exploring the BUG.
According to Alipay's back-end statistics, only over 7,000 cards had been drawn. In fact, they had prepared a total of 10,000 cards.
However, this drawing also had a certain probability. Not all 10,000 cards had been drawn.
If there were really only 7,000 people to split the money, then each person would be able to get more than 10,000 yuan. Although it wasn't a lot, it was enough to surprise everyone.
However, this would make more people feel disappointed. The winning rate was too low, which would make many people less interested. It was just like how everyone knew that they could win five million or ten million yuan in the lottery, but many people didn't buy it.
It wasn't that they couldn't bear to part with the two yuan, but they felt that the probability of winning was too low. It was as if the two yuan was thrown away. Although two yuan wasn't a lot, it would still hurt to throw it away.
However, the kind of lottery that didn't have a big prize but a very high probability of getting a small prize was very popular. Although they couldn't make a lot of money, there were always some small surprises.
On this day, more than 100,000 people had drawn the Liuwai name card that they had dreamed of. They all thought that they were the luckiest few and dreamed of getting at least tens of thousands of yuan. They didn't know that they were not that few anymore.
On the day before the deadline, 100,000 Liuwai name cards were released every hour. More people had gathered and they all felt a sense of joy from recovering what they had lost.
They thought that it was almost time and they wouldn't be able to gather. Suddenly, they got it today. It was simply ecstatic.
However, many people also realized that more and more people were saying that they had drawn the Liuwai name card. In the past, there wasn't even one in 10,000 people who had drawn it. Now, it seemed that there were a few in 1,000 people who had drawn it. Did the probability increase?
Did Alipay see the netizens' protests, so they finally increased the probability of getting the Liuwai name card? Some people were happy because they could participate in the distribution of the money.
Some people were very dissatisfied because they had drawn it before and hoped that others wouldn't be able to draw it. If there were fewer people to split the money, they would be able to get more.
When the last day arrived, it was almost midnight. Many people who usually went to bed early at this time were also waiting silently. They were waiting for the final number of winners to be announced so that they could receive their average prize money.
Many people even said that they did not stay up so late even when they were watching the Spring Festival Gala. But today, they were very energetic and not sleepy at all.
Some people were very ambitious, like Wen Dongjun. Both of them had gathered the Liuwai name card, but Feng Yu told him not to have too high of an expectation. It was good enough to just buy some groceries.
When Wen Dongjun heard what Feng Yu said, he understood that there must be a lot of people getting the money, and everyone will get very little. What was he waiting for? Anyway, the money will be automatically transferred to his Alipay account. It will be the same tomorrow.
That night, just after midnight, many people received the notification from Alipay. They immediately clicked on it and saw the figures. Some people started cursing.
What the f * * k is going on? Isn't there a 100 million prize money? Why is everyone getting 37.6 yuan?
The number of people who had drawn the Liuwai name card was almost 3 million? For the sake of 37.6 yuan, they had been using Alipay every day. On average, it was less than 1 yuan a day!
Because of the time difference between different countries, there were still some differences in the distribution of the money on the same day.
When these countries' netizens saw the news from Alipay, they felt the same as Hua Xia's netizens. Why is there only so little money?!
