What is the best partnership strategy?

The best strategy: "one report and one report" strategy, you cooperate with me, you betray me and betray.

One: Why is there also cooperation between selfish people?

1: Because as long as the two parties can establish a "long-term" mutual benefit, a stable cooperative relationship can be established. This law applies to both humans and the natural world

2: Even hostile soldiers build cooperative relationships.

An important condition for cooperation is that the two form a "condition for mutual return", hello or I, cooperation can happen.

Second: Why is "one report and one report" the best mode of cooperation?

1: In life, we often face a difference between the "repeated prisoner's dilemma" and a single "prisoner's dilemma".

The difference is that the former can decide their next choice based on the other person's choice in the last "Prisoner's Dilemma", while the latter does not have the previous choice results as a reference. The book is primarily about the "repetitive prisoner's dilemma."

2: The vitality of the "one report and one report" model in different environments and rules. This life force has a proper noun called "robustness":

"Robustness" is an important concept in game theory, which can be understood as the stability and resistance of a thing.

3: Why did the "one report and one report" model succeed? This pattern has four characteristics:

A kindness: kindness prevents itself from getting into unnecessary trouble, and the attitude of being willing to cooperate will not be excluded at the beginning

B: Retaliation: After making the other party try to betray once, they dare not betray again. Once you (A) meet someone (B) who is unwilling to cooperate this time, then this time A will also choose not to cooperate with B, and this "revenge" has a deterrent effect

C Tolerance: Helps to restore cooperation, A is not the kind of person who remembers revenge, once B chooses to cooperate again, then A will also re-choose to cooperate with B

D: Clarity: A does not engage in cleverness, will not take the lead in betrayal, the principle of cooperation is very firm, so it is easy to maintain long-term cooperation with people

4: In the many cooperation model competitions held by the author, the model of "one newspaper and one newspaper", relying on the four characteristics of kindness, revenge, tolerance and clarity, cooperates with good people for a long time, while cracking down on betrayal people, and finally establishes an "ecological network of cooperation"

Three: How applicable is the "one report for one report" model in our real life?

1: Whether it is family, neighborhood, workplace, shopping mall, what should we do to ensure smooth cooperation?

Ensure a "reunion": For example, a fast food restaurant near the train station will meet again, and there is also a game process between the merchant and the customer. One side does a good job, and the other side eats the praise, which is a win-win situation. But because consumers basically only deal once, whether it is revenge or praise, there is basically no way to "reunite", so fast food near the train station, whether consumers choose to cooperate or betray, that is, to come or not to come, good or bad, the merchant will always cut corners and will choose betrayal. The reason for such a problem is that consumers do not have the opportunity to "retaliate" against each other, which is the characteristic of "one-hammer trading". Therefore, in the vicinity of the railway station, you have to choose a chain store (KFC, McDonald's, etc.), which can be "retaliated" for chain store consumers and have the opportunity to "reunite" again.

"Trust originates from reunion", and only continuous encounters and cooperation can happen. And the more encounters, the greater the probability of cooperation being established and the greater the outcome of cooperation.

"The premise of cooperation is constant encounters, not trust, and has nothing to do with friendship."

2: Suggestions to follow in the process of cooperation:

A: Don't be jealous, don't engage in a "zero-sum game" of "there is me without you, there is you without me", because most situations in life are "non-zero-sum games". So when we face competition, don't be jealous that our peers are doing better than us, our ultimate goal is to run our own ecosystem, when the people around you are willing to cooperate with you, then you can get more benefits, you don't have to worry about the betrayal of the people around you and suffer losses, and you can ultimately win greater success.

B: Don't betray in the first place. Betrayal in the first place will have very bad consequences, because the impression you give at the beginning is very important, and many people will look at the first impression when judging the attitude of others. If you betray first, you are destroying your reputation and image, and it is difficult to establish cooperation next

C: Reciprocate cooperation and fight back against betrayal. Know how to be grateful to Dade, but do not choose to tolerate betrayals, and there must be some repercussions.

D: Don't be clever and betrayal occasionally. In this way, it is easy to lose big because of small mistakes, and give each other "unclear" principles of cooperation, which will be considered by the other party to be "too city government", and "too city government" Many people will avoid it

3: How to expand, continue and stabilize cooperation.

A: Increase future impact

B: Change the value of the proceeds of betrayal: for example, the government collects taxes and cracks down on tax evasion

C: Improve discrimination. Whether it is cooperation or betrayal, a discriminating ability is required.

Prioritize things with sharp marks, and be wary of things that don't have clear marks.
