The fire of the Zhang Jike incident has been spreading for several days, and various theories have emerged, and Zhang Jike's team tried to extinguish the fire in a clumsy way, but the result was getting bigger and bigger.
I don't want to talk about Zhang Jike's gossip scandal, if what Zhang Jike did is true, then let her go to jail and use the sword of law to extinguish the anger of the masses.
If it is false, let the rumor-mongers bear the price.
I didn't want to pour cold water on the head of the heroine, who was already a victim, and I didn't even want to mention his name.
Instead of making the victim guilty, give all the gaze to the perpetrator and give the victim time and space so that he can heal beyond our field of vision.
And today, all the fingers are directed at gambling.
Because if Li Weiao's revelation is true, then Zhang Jike is using almost his entire career to present us with the three characteristics of gambling in a complete and extreme way.
One
Everyone is equal in front of gambling, and those who fall into the gambling net do not distinguish between rich and poor, whether they are rich or poor, they may not be completely squeezed out, the rich will become "negative tyrants", and the poor will "gamble poorer and poorer, and the poorer they gamble."
After the news was just issued, many people questioned that Zhang Jike's annual income in 2017 reached 60 million, and would he be short of this money? It's fake at first glance.
But if you know a little more about gambling, you will find that 60 million is nothing, and tens of billions of people can be scammed.
Zhang Jike was once worth more than 100 million, but after decades of hard work, he returned from a scandal and owed like a mountain.
In other words, Zhang Jike is almost using his decades-long career to work for casinos.
In addition to Zhang Jike, the news of rich people falling into gambling is endless, such as the bankruptcy of a certain billionaire, a simple search is a lot.
The rich are still like this, not to mention ordinary people with very low ability to resist risks because of gambling to destroy their families, wives and children scattered almost everywhere, maybe there are such gamblers around everyone.
Two
Gambling is like drug addiction, once it is trapped, it is difficult to eradicate it for a lifetime.
In 2004, Zhang Jike, a 16-year-old genius teenager, was punished for participating in illegal gambling, and gambling was in the news for a while, and he was once expelled from the national team and returned to the provincial team.
In 2015, 27-year-old Zhang Jike competed in Germany and was revealed by Der Spiegel magazine to slip from the hotel to the casino.
In 2023, Zhang Jike, who is 35 years old, was exposed to the vicious news that he owed a huge gambling debt, took private photos of his ex-girlfriend to settle the debt, and let the creditor blackmail.
What does this mean? Zhang Jike's gambling addiction was definitely before the age of 16, and nearly 20 years later, even if he was repeatedly punished, advised and exposed, he still has not looked back.
Once caught in a gambling trap, it is like a drug addict sacrificing everything to allow himself to take more sips.
At first, it may be just one or two mouthfuls, and then you can't satisfy yourself after sucking it all day, and you have to suck the marrow of yourself and the people around you dry, and you can't stop it.
Therefore, in the face of serious punishment of dismissal, suspected violations of the law, high debt, and the huge risk of ruining the career prospects of a lifetime.
16-year-old Zhang Jike still chose to continue gambling for more than ten years, and there has been no turning back since then.
Three
Gambling ends up losing humanity and destroying families.
Once a drug addiction occurs, gamblers will do whatever it takes to satisfy the addiction, without any lower limit.
Before the unconfirmed revelations, Zhang Jike was already scandalous, and in the past few years, he has been amassing money in a way that completely disregards the future and consumes all potential and development opportunities.
In 2019, Zhang Jike suddenly entered the tea beverage industry and cooperated deeply with a milk tea brand, which laid out 100 stores in 17 days, and after receiving a large amount of funds from franchisees, it suddenly exploded after the past two years, leaving many franchisees with no return.
But Zhang Jike and the merchants ignored this, provoking many franchisees to defend their rights one after another, and finally failed.
And then crazy to participate in variety shows that are completely different from their own image, personality, and ability, but in the variety show is almost completely paddling, not cooperating, not operating, only collecting money, almost saying that I am in a hurry to ask for money, don't force me blindly.
Now he is also facing the accusation of his ex-girlfriend's private photos to settle debts, from which you can see the process of Zhang Jike's step-by-step fall.
At the beginning, he cut the leeks of franchisees who did not know him, cut the leeks of the program group and peers in the entertainment industry, and then the leeks were all cut again, as soon as the drug addiction came, the pockets were empty and looked around, everything that could be cut was cut, what else could be done? Take the people around you.
So in the end, the ex-girlfriend also became the price.
Gambling will make you fall step by step, first emptying your own wallet, then borrowing your hand, emptying the wallets of your not-so-close friends, and finally emptying the wallets of your loved ones.
Do you think the casino merchant is fancying you?
No, he looks at everything you have, and he wants to drain not only yourself, but everyone around you.
So you see that after many rich people are caught gambling, the final outcome is either bankruptcy, suicide, imprisonment, or betrayal.
Xu, a Changzhou native worth more than 100 million, lost 120 million and began to blackmail others to gamble for himself, and eventually went to prison, and the billionaire Liu lost more than 10 billion in gambling and was unable to repay and committed suicide.
In the early morning of January 12, 2005, Tian, a tycoon in Yueyang, Hunan Province, committed suicide by lying on the rails because he lost 2.2 million yuan in gambling in Macau.
The rich with mountains of wealth still end up like this.
What's more, ordinary people who do not have many chips in their hands, it is precisely because there are so many lessons from the past, the consequences of gambling are so serious, and the potential threat to ordinary people is so great, that in-depth analysis of gambling is so important.
So, after analyzing the characteristics of gambling, how did gambling guide Zhang Jike and ordinary people into the abyss step by step?
It relies on psychological manipulation and black hand manipulation.
Use psychological manipulation to make you unable to extricate yourself, and use black hands to manipulate you to eventually bankruptcy.
It is estimated that many people in offline casinos will not go, that is the game of rich people.
What the vast majority of people should be wary of is the pervasive online gambling that is now dressed up in various forms.
Today's online gambling presents such a similar routine, they will use the pig killing plate, disguised as handsome guys and beauties, meet you by chance online, and then continue to contact you to get closer.
At this time, you already have a certain level of trust in the other party, and the other party begins to inadvertently reveal what small project they have earned a small amount of money on a certain website, and also send you various screenshots of the winning money to seduce you into entering.
Under the constant temptation of handsome guys and beautiful women, once you have the opportunity to enter, the whole gambling scam starts to work, and the next model is almost copied from the offline casino routine.
They'll start working with the rules of the casino with sophisticated tricks, allowing you to win one after another at the beginning, losing only once in a while, to avoid your suspicions.
And every time you win money, the accompanying person will constantly appreciate and encourage you by your side, saying that you are strong, lucky, rare in a hundred years, others are more losses and win less, and you will definitely make a lot of money today.
You don't know where you are, and all that remains is the immense vanity, the thrill of making more money, and the desire to please the lovely people around you and say more sweet words.
Some netizens shared their psychological process when they won the first money, that one won more than 1500, when the impact was huge, an electric current hit the brain, so that the back scalp began to numb, the whole body began to tremble, excited no, the atmosphere was in place, and reason was gradually expelled by intense emotions.
A human being who has lost his mind, like a stupid brainless creature, is at the mercy of others, and the next operation, whether clumsy or not, becomes easier, you strongly want more money, and the thrill of happiness like getting something for nothing makes you fascinated.
In addition, in an atmosphere of winning more and losing less, you develop a strong illusion of control, and you are confident that you can win more money, and you start to increase the stakes, constantly increasing the stakes.
And because winning more and more wins is no longer enough to satisfy your inflated desires or your ever-increasing stimulation threshold, the result is that the stakes are getting bigger and bigger.
Once the stakes are so big that you start losing money quickly, losing all the money you won several times before in one or two days.
At this time, you have a great sense of loss and deprivation.
You don't feel that the money that you just lost back is the part you won, you haven't lost the principal, you just think that this is my money, I lost a lot, I am unwilling.
At the same time, your competitive spirit is aroused and you want to prove that you have maintained the false illusion of control that you previously created for the casino.
You don't admit defeat, and as a result, in the deeper and deeper unwillingness, you lose almost all your savings.
I don't know if if you come to this step, will you turn back in time, but it is very likely that you can not go back, you will only feel that today's state is not good, another day to fight, will be able to earn back the lost money, and make a big profit, you have no money to start borrowing money from people around you, the borrowed money is used up.
At this time, the huge cost of silence has made you have no turning back, you dare not face the end of yourself spending half of your life savings in a few days, let alone face the cruel fact that this is me stupid, I was deceived, I can win and lose money is all the cruel fact that the dealer is manipulating.
began to take advantage of loved ones, even going astray.
Casinos will always be the places where they are most aware of human nature and are best at using it.
Do you really think that if you fall into it, you can get rid of it in time?
So when you see someone asking if you win, you don't play, and you can't do it, you only feel that you underestimate your own desires, and you underestimate the uncontrollable desires of others.
Whether online or offline, the core job of a casino is to make your sanity disappear and you can easily manipulate into the game.
If you can still walk away, if it's not your super willpower, then the casino has made a serious work mistake, and you can rest assured that they will definitely review it in depth to avoid similar phenomena.
And in fact, the so-called people who stop gambling after winning by willpower will probably visit again, because once you start gambling and winning, the refreshing feeling that the casino gives you to get a lot of money without hard work has been incorporated into your nerves, destroying your view of money and abolishing your ability to work down-to-earth.
The kind of coolness that hits your entire brain has been imprinted in the depths of your mind, and when you feel the boredom and pain of life, that refreshing feeling will rise irrepressibly.
After all, if making money can be obtained by unearned work, and it can be so exciting and exciting, what is the point of working hard to make money?
Naturally, you will visit again and continue to bet until you are deeply trapped, bankrupt, and finally desperately cornered, or even self-destructive.
Studies have shown that gambling addicts have the highest rate of suicide attempts, 20%, which equates to only one in five gambling addicts.
Zheng Dexing, a college student in Zhengzhou, Henan Province, earned 5,000 a year, won 7,000 through online gambling, and completely fell, using his status as a class leader to lend 28 of his classmates' ID cards for loans, and finally committed suicide by jumping off a building with a debt of 1.3 million.
A man in Linyi, Shandong Province, drank two bottles of herbs and cried after losing more than 1 million, and before he died, the last thing he did was take a video to confirm drug rehabilitation.
Maybe you're smart enough not to be deceived, but can you really stand alone?
Is gambling only the gambler himself?
No, gambling has a very strong collateral destruction effect, you are vigilant, does not mean that your relatives and friends around you are vigilant.
As analyzed above, after their savings are squandered, gamblers are likely to start attacking friends and relatives around them, even if you do not gamble, you are very likely to become a victim.
There are not a few cases of gambling alone and desperate families.
Many friends have shared that their daughter-in-law fell into the pit for about 800,000, I am already depressed, a little schizophrenic, the family is going crazy, they lost 2 million, they are forced to go into debt every day, and the family can't think about it.
Many gamblers have no way to go because they have lost all their money, so they have the courage to commit theft, kidnapping and even human trafficking, which seriously endangers society.
And the end of the powerful rich will produce greater secondary disasters.
The Shenyang Beijing News reported that in 2014, at least six entrepreneurs in a township in Yuyao, Zhejiang Province, ran away from home to avoid creditors, and their businesses were forced to be sold to others, and many workers lost their jobs and could not receive wages.
There are also billionaires who extort others into gambling for themselves after losing everything.
If gambling is popular, it will destroy the life of the individual at best, and the order of the entire society at worst, and everyone will be in danger, and no one will be left alone.
Do you think gambling is just for your money?
The blood basin that does not gamble is still full of bloody human bones, gurgling.
This is also why in ancient times we began to quit gambling, and today, the people of the country will use very strong means to combat gambling.
Some countries that generate revenue from gambling are also clearly aware of the great harm of gambling.
In Cambodia, for example, the gaming industry generated $85 million for the government in 2019.
But it is worth noting that while bringing amazing profits to the country's people, Cambodia first enacted legislation in the 1996 anti-gambling law to prohibit its own people from participating in gambling, allowing only tourists to gamble and generate income for the people.
My citizens gave me good jobs and forbade gambling, but losing too much money would make gambling resentful and undevilish.
The rampant gambling industry has brought Cambodia a large number of theft, kidnapping, stranglement, homicide, and human trafficking cases.
However, the Cambodian government also wants to retain gambling revenue, so it has ordered that from January 1, 2020, Cambodia will completely ban online gambling in accordance with the law, and legal casinos in China can still operate normally offline, but even so, it has been repeatedly banned.
It's the same in the country, why?
Because being a gambling trader is too profitable, money itself makes gamblers lose rationality, but also makes traders lose humanity, they don't care at all, behind the massive amount of money uproar, is the life of countless people destroyed.
Because I saw these problems, I saw that the world champions were also involved in the gambling quagmire, and I saw that there were countless shots in the case ready to drag us or our family and friends into the abyss at any time.
Only then will you analyze that gambling is so important, know yourself and the other, in order to win a hundred battles, know the characteristics of gambling, the logical rules of traders, the great harm of gambling, at least let everyone be vigilant and refuse temptation in time.
Don't feel that gambling is gone from us, he is still driving around us, inducing us to fall.
I just hope that everyone can live a safe and good life, please don't let gambling eat up your colorful life.
