Adapted from the manga of the same name by Shinobu Kaitani, The Trick Game has a Douban rating of 8.4 points, and more than 80% of people have given it a positive review.
In the play, not only the game link is brilliantly designed, but the male and female protagonists CP Akiyama and his wife are even more excited by a group of drama fans.
The female protagonist, Xiao Nao, is a straight and kind female college student, commonly known as silly white sweet, played by Toda Toda Keirika.
She can step on the same pit 42 times in a row; when she finds 100 yen (about 6 yuan), she will obediently go to the police station and hand it over to the police uncle.
Even if it is a scam call full of loopholes, Xiao Zhi will believe it. The person across the phone claimed to be her brother, but Xiao Zhi was obviously an only child.
As an ordinary person, being deceived more will have a long memory, but Xiao Zhi not only did not improve his sense of prevention at all, but also felt good about himself.
She firmly believes that "integrity is the most important thing"
Until one day, when Xiao Zhi came home, he found an envelope and a box full of 100 million yen (about 5.63 million yuan) at the door, and was involved in a "deception game".
This game is run by the Fraud Bureau and has a probability of being selected in 100,000.
The first round of the game, also known as the knockout round, is based on a format of snatching money from the opponent and the game time is 30 days.
During this period, both parties can get money from each other in any way, and after 30 days, the Fraud Bureau will recover 100 million yen from each of them. In other words, all the money stolen from the opponent will go into your own pocket; the opponent will be in debt.
Geng Zhi was as straight as Xiao Zhi, but his first reaction was to go to the police station with money, but he was rejected by the big gold tooth police.
Panicked, Xiao Zhi waited for the notice of the opponent to be played.
His opponent turned out to be Fujisawa, his favorite teacher in middle school, and Xiao Nao quickly came to the teacher with money to discuss countermeasures.
Fujisawa-sensei denies the rules of the deception game and says that he can help Xiao Nao store the money in the bank, and Xiao Nao happily gives the money to the teacher.
Hey, this is a "trick game".
That night, Xiao Nao received a notification of the progress of the game, and he lost to Fujisawa Sensei by 100 million!
Xiao Zhi went to the teacher the next day and accidentally heard the fact that the teacher deliberately deceived himself just to win the game.
Thinking that she was about to be in debt of one hundred million, Xiao Zhi almost collapsed, and the big gold tooth police gave her an idea to go to the genius fraudster for help.
Akiyama, a genius fraudster who is about to be released from prison after three years in prison, is played by Shota Matsuyama.
Akiyama promised to help Xiao Nao in 50 million yen, and his goal was not only to get back 100 million yuan from Xiao Nao, but all 200 million.
He took Xiao Zhi with him to the teacher's house, directly induced the teacher to admit to cheating money, and started a psychological war with the teacher.
The first step is to declare war on the teacher and show that you are ready to grab the money.
The second step is to take turns monitoring the teacher, so that the teacher is highly nervous and refuses to leave the cash box for half a step.
The third step is to secretly replace the envelope of the game notification in the mailbox outside the teacher's house, so that the teacher mistakenly thinks that the game deadline is 5 o'clock (actually 6 o'clock).
In the final step, he asked someone disguised as a staff member of the Fraud Bureau to go to the teacher's house at 5 o'clock to recover cash, and successfully defrauded the teacher of 200 million yen.
At this point, Xiao Zhi won the knockout round of this deception game.
In addition to the 100 million recovered by the Fraud Bureau and the 50 million paid to Akiyama, Kono has 50 million left and the teacher is in debt of 100 million.
However, Xiao Zhi was not happy and returned all the money to the teacher.
Unexpectedly, the second round of the game is coming! If you abstain, you will need to return half of the first round prize, which is 50 million yen.
Xiao Nao, who had no money to abstain, entered the second round of the competition, and Akiyama then joined the competition and opened the "wife protection" mode.
This time, the difficulty of the game has greatly increased.
The 22 players who won the first round of the tournament met at the meeting place, each receiving a nameplate with their own name and a 3-carat pink diamond on the nameplate. It represents 100 million yen.
22 nameplates = 2.2 billion yen.
The losers of the match will leave the game and leave the nameplate, and the final winner will have 22 nameplates, or 2.2 billion yen, in addition to the 100 million yuan to be returned to the Fraud Bureau, there is still 2.1 billion yen left.
2.1 billion yen, 118 million yuan!
Those who lose will be returned the principal amount of 100 million yen.
The content of the game is also very simple, a few decisions.
Any one player asks a question, and everyone votes for YES or NO respectively, and the party with the fewer votes wins. If the votes are equal, it is a draw and the question is re-issued.
In this way, the losers are eliminated until the end of the game is completed with 1 or 2 players left on the field.
If there is only one player left, the player will have 2.1 billion yuan exclusively, and if there are two players left, the player will need to divide the 2 billion yuan equally (excluding the principal of the two people of 200 million), each 1 billion yen.
At the same time, the winner successfully advanced to the third round of the competition, and if he wanted to abstain, each person had to return half of the second round prize money.
Players who are worried that they will be in debt have a retreat in their hearts.
Is this game fair? What if the fraud firm installed its own people in it?
A minority decision means to be a minority to win, and there is no possibility of manipulation at all. In order to let players better understand the format, the fraud office also let everyone rehearse once.
The rehearsal question is: Are you a woman?
Of the players present, 9 were women and 13 were men. If you choose YES or NO according to the real situation, it should be the person who chooses YES to win.
However, in the end YES15 votes, NO7 votes, the side that chose NO won.
So, the question is not important, what matters is how to accurately guess what other players are thinking and thus become a minority.
This is too difficult, after all, people's hearts are separated, and no matter how you guess, you can't figure out the thoughts of 21 people. Players are terrified, immersed in the fear of impending debt.
Only Akiyama was very calm, and he came up with a method of winning the group.
In this round of the game, as long as there are 8 players teaming up and voting for the opposite answer in half every vote, then at least one of these 8 people will stay at the end and get 2.1 billion in prize money. (As for why it is 8, we also need to use mathematical knowledge, accurate calculations, and reminders, this game, up to three rounds.) ）
The 2.1 billion prize money, minus the 1.05 billion required to abstain from the third round of the tournament and the 700 million principal required to be compensated by the seven losing members of the team, can also be divided into 43.75 million yen per person.
However, this seemingly complete winning method has a necessary condition, that is, everyone in the team is afraid of losing, what if someone is not afraid of losing and just wants to win?
And Akiyama can now determine that such a person does exist in the player.
Before the start of the match, Akiyama saw a crying girl at the entrance of the venue, she brought the money won in the first round to return it to the staff of the Fraud Bureau, and applied to withdraw from the second round of the game, only to be cheated out of the money by a contestant disguised as a staff member.
This shows that among the players in the second round, there is a person with a fraudulent 100 million in his hand, and if he loses, he will have money to return to the fraud office, and he will definitely win desperately.
This person is the mushroom head.
Coincidentally, the unknowing Xiao Zhi also pulled the mushroom head into his own winning team, until the final round of voting, the mushroom head thought that he had hidden from everyone and began to expose himself.
He united all the people in the stadium to form 3 winning teams.
In the last voting match, the remaining 4 people are mushroom heads and the other 3 winning team members, with a little skill, you can make yourself the final winner and win all the prize money.
Seeing that the mushroom head is about to succeed, what kind of counterattack will Akiyama make?
Here the sister is not spoilers, you go to see for yourself, every reversal in the play is amazing, and the smuggling game and the roulette wheel that does not turn are also very exciting.
Unlike the aesthetics of bloody violence, "Deception Game" pays more attention to the brain-burning game setting, and wins with pure wit.
If you want to win, you have to prejudge the opponent's prejudgment.
Everyone's win is based on the opponent's loss, so most people will try their best to "harm others and benefit themselves".
For example, Mushroom Head, in the third round of the game, he would have been the first loser to be voted out by everyone because he offended all the players, but he used a few words to make Xiao Zhi become the target of everyone, and later he lied many times in order to win.
In contrast, Xiao Zhi is an exception. She wanted everyone not to lose.
In all the games, if everyone works together, does not cheat each other, and divides the prize money equally, no one will be in debt and no one will be profitable.
Can such an idealized state really be achieved?
Even if mushroom head cheats and uses Xiao Zhi again and again, Xiao Zhi is still willing to believe him, which also makes many people exhale directly to the heart attack.
In contrast, Akiyama has countless fans with his superb logical analysis ability.
He has both the ability to control the overall situation and a kind heart, contributing to the most wonderful part of the whole drama, who doesn't want such a boyfriend to clean up the mess for himself?
Compared with the simple and rough game setting in "Squid Game", which basically looks at luck, the brain-burning threshold of "Deception Game" is relatively high.
Many people said that in the process of watching the drama, they must repeatedly pause and ponder in order to straighten out the exquisite logical loopholes.
This also leads to a higher threshold for the whole drama, so far the number of Douban evaluations is only more than 50,000, which is only 1/6 of "Squid Game".
But the influence of Deception Game cannot be underestimated.
Not only has it produced movies and Korean drama remakes, but it has also been put on the domestic stage by the drama team, and there are still variety shows learning from the rules of the game in the drama.
That's the charm of classics.
Finally, friends who are not good at math, when watching the play, remember to prepare a paper and pencil to type a draft.
