Chapter 74: Fear of Sakaki

The more Takayama looked at Sakaki Makoto, the more satisfied he became.

Such amazing insight, such an unusual way of thinking, is simply perfect for the underworld.

He just threw out the wakizashi directly, which was actually against the rules.

Under normal circumstances, the Shinkansen Group would prepare a room for Yamamoto Daisuke instead of cutting his fingers in public.

The reason for doing this is to test Sakaki Makoto's tolerance for bloody scenes.

Sakaki Makoto passed the test without a doubt.

His psychological quality surprised Gao Shanyue.

It seems...

Gin found the treasure...

Just when Gao Shanyue was sighing and lamenting that Gin was so lucky...

Suddenly I saw Sakaki Makoto borrow a calculator from Ishikawa Hide and started typing away.

While knocking, he muttered something and his eyes were shining.

What the hell is this kid up to?

Gao Shanyue came closer with curiosity——there was nothing he could do, Sakaki Makoto's behavior was just too weird...

"One person gets 1000w, two people get 2000w, and 100 people get..."

"Turtle!"

"One billion..."

"What 1 billion?"

Gao Shanyue's voice came from behind.

“Money!”

Sakaki Makoto said without even raising his head:

"Just now, President Yamamoto wanted to give me a reward of 10 million yuan, and I was thinking..."

"There are hundreds of people in this hall. If everyone gives me 1000w..."

Gao Shanyue...the corner of his mouth twitched.

At the age of 60 and with rich life experience, he suddenly understood what Makoto Sakaki was going to do.

"Daisuke Yamamoto is just an exception."

He shook his head and said with the attitude of a man who had experienced it:

"These days, true love is the most common."

"Do you think everyone cheats?"

"That's not the case."

Sakaki Makoto grabbed the red wine, moistened his dry throat, and said:

"If everyone cheated, the world would be over sooner rather than later."

"After all, marriage is like a contract. Everyone agrees to be monogamous, so cheating is intolerable."

"But..."

He glanced across the banquet hall, pointed at the celebrities, and said seriously:

"Japan ranks first in the world with a 49% rate of extramarital affairs."

“49%?!”

Gao Shanyue's eyes almost popped out:

“Where did you get your data?”

49, approximately equal to 50...

A 50% cheating rate is such a terrifying concept that many people may not understand it.

This is not as simple as tossing a coin and guessing heads or tails, a purely probabilistic problem...

Human behavior (except for uncontrollable factors) is controlled by oneself.

That is to say, 50% of people who cheat do so voluntarily (not just women, but men as well).

What effect will this have?

A long time ago, a scholar put forward a statement: humans are social animals.

The vast majority of people need to rely on groups to survive, and only a very few can live apart from the group.

Note: The separation mentioned here refers to a situation where a person goes deep into the mountains and forests and cannot see other people at all.

Just like a babbling child, humans who rely on groups to live have become accustomed to looking for standards for doing things and a sense of security from the people around them.

If a person's ideas are inconsistent with those of the people around him, he will be rejected; otherwise, he will be accepted.

Many people will deliberately imitate the behavior of others imperceptibly. This phenomenon is also called herd mentality (pay attention).

There is an anecdote that goes, "Three people make a tiger."

During the Warring States Period, there was a man named Pang Cong who was going to HD with the Crown Prince of Wei as a hostage.

Pang Cong was worried that someone would falsely accuse him after he left, so he said to the King of Wei:

"My lord, if someone said there was a tiger on the street, would you believe it?"

The King of Wei said, "I don't believe it."

Pang Cong: "What if two people said it?"

King Wei: "Then I will be suspicious."

Pang Cong asked again: "What if we increase the number to three people?"

The King of Wei said, "Then I will believe it."

This story truly shows that people are easily influenced by their surroundings.

One person says he doesn’t believe it, two people say they doubt it, what about three or four people?

This involves the question of whether to do or not.

For example: A went to a party and met 6 new friends. Among these 6 new friends, 3 of them, B, C, and D, were having extramarital affairs, and they talked about it openly without any shame.

At first, A refuted them righteously, but out of consideration for the relationship, his words were not harsh.

So, the three friends united together.

B said: "My husband is busy with work and ignores me. I can't get physical satisfaction. What should I do if I don't cheat?"

C said: "My wife is old and not as pretty as she was when she was young. But when I see my company's executives, they are in their prime and full of energy. They are playing with other women and they are not abandoning their wives. Isn't that right?"

D said: "I just have a lot of male best friends. We are all very close, kissing and holding hands. I accidentally did it when I was drunk. There is nothing I can do about it!"

The other party had more people and more power, A had no way to refute, and everyone left in a bad mood.

After returning home, A suddenly realized that it was already 11 o'clock in the evening and her husband had not returned home yet. The phone message showed that he was entertaining clients.

When A came to the restroom, she saw in the mirror that the skin of the girl was beginning to sag. Although she had a bit more charm, she was not as youthful and beautiful as the young people...
