Gazing at the Rainbow - v2 Chapter 234
Due to space reasons, Lin Yao and his fellow graduate students went to Qingshan Lake for outreach training in batches, so in the following days, their group can rest for a few days before starting classes, and she is just used to arrange work.
Lin Yao was really busy during this time, but she was not in vain. She had successfully sent Mr. Wen over, and more than half of the samples found a suitable manufacturer, and the orders flew to her like snowflakes.
According to this trend, her financial pressure should be relieved soon.
Thinking of this, she took out the bank card Qin Rongze had given, and squeezed it in her hand.
She never asked Qin Rongze how much money there is here, nor did she intend to ask.
She is very confident that she can definitely use her own strength to make achievements!
In the office, the sound of the fax machine rang abruptly.
Lin Yao stuffed the bank card into the drawer and got up to check the fax. It was another new order from Mr. Wen.
She curled her lips in satisfaction,
***
In mid-September, they officially started classes.
Mu Wenxi, Lin Yao and Cui Chenyi agreed to have lunch together under the teaching building and they parted ways.
Because the three of them chose completely different research directions, except for some compulsory courses, their elective courses were also different, but they chose the same class time with great understanding.
Lin Yao and Mu Wenxi rarely took the same course this morning: game theory.
The young professor talked freely on the podium, “Game theory is called gametheory in the West. Game is an activity that people follow certain rules, and the purpose of participants is to make themselves ‘win’.
Next, let me talk about the prisoners’ dilemma, prisoners’dilemma. I hope everyone can get a general understanding of this course…”
Lin Yao listened attentively to the professor’s explanation.
The prisoner’s dilemma assumes that two suspects are caught by the police after committing a crime and are held in different rooms for trial. The police told them: if both of them confessed, they would each be sentenced to 8 years in prison; if they both deny, each would be sentenced to 3 years (maybe due to insufficient evidence); if one confessed and the other deny, let them out frankly, the denial would be sentenced to 10 years.
The dilemma encountered by the two suspects is:
1. If you choose to deny yourself, there will be two results:
1) If the opponent chooses to confess, he will be sentenced to 10 years, and the opponent can be released directly. The result: lose.
2) The opponent chose to deny, and the two were sentenced to 3 years each. The result: neither lose nor win.
2. If you choose to confess, you will also have two results:
1) The other party also chose to confess, and the two were sentenced to 8 years each. The result: neither lose nor win.
2) If the opponent chooses to deny, then the opponent will be sentenced to 10 years, and he can be released directly. The result: win.
On the surface, they only need to be sentenced to 3 years each for denying them together, and each of them will be sentenced to 8 years if they both confess together.
The more favorable option for both of them is obvious: deny together.
But in order to “win,” the suspects often make the opposite choice: confess together.
If you look closely, you can find that there are actually many examples of this in life. For example, parents who know that the burden of schoolwork is too heavy but do more harm than good to their children’s growth, they keep saying that the burden should be reduced, but in fact, most parents will not give their children. Reduce the burden.
Another example is the excessive use of natural resources. Everyone knows that this is not good, but everyone still does it.
…
Lin Yao was full of interest.
She only knew how it was, but she didn’t know why.
Now she feels that her thinking has opened a brand new door to a brand new and larger world!
When class was about to end, she realized that Mu Wenxi next to her had already drooped her eyelids and her head was a little bit.
She was actually asleep!
Lin Yao didn’t understand that Mu Wenxi could fall asleep even in such a spirited class?
After class, they walked out of the classroom together and went to the drinking spot outside to pick up some water. She frowned and whispered: “Oh, I feel like I’m listening to the Bible. I don’t understand it at all!”
Lin Yao glanced at her meaningfully. It was impossible for Mu Wenxi to understand it, and it was very possible for Mu Wenxi not to be interested.
After all, that’s how Lin Yao came here.
Before she took the intelligence test, she never felt that she was a material for reading, after all, she didn’t like reading at all.
In fact, from elementary school to middle school to university, she has been in a muddle-headed manner. She has never really studied attentively. It is only strange that her grades will be good!
Now it is different. She wants to study and then return to school through her own efforts. She cherishes this hard-won opportunity very much, so she can listen to every class with gusto.
Mu Wenxi has always been a hard-working student, and she has never had a tortuous experience like hers, and she will not be touched as deeply by her.
Mu Wenxi muttered as she walked, “I wonder if the course chosen by Cui Chenyi will be more interesting.”
Lin Yao was surprised: “Do you want to change classes?”
Mu Wenxi said helplessly, “Yes, I listen to this class as if I’m listening to the heavenly scriptures, if only I can change it. I don’t know if I have already had a section, and I can change it, hey, it’s troublesome.”
As everyone knows, the eyes of those in the corridor are shining with gossip.
In fact, as early as the day of the school opening ceremony, Cui Chenyi and Mu Wenxi, together as representatives of freshmen, became official CPs in the eyes of everyone.
Unexpectedly, during the outreach training, Cui Chenyi went to Lin Yao and gave her something in front of Mu Wenxi!
Since then, some people have been gossiping about the relationship between the three of them in private.
Most of Mu Wenxi’s courses are with Cui Chenyi, which is in line with everyone’s expectations. After all, it should be the official match!
Unexpectedly, she would come to class with Lin Yao, and it seemed to be pretty good, which was really surprising.
However, sometimes, it’s only superficial, and maybe they are stabbing each other secretly!
The bell rang again, the number of people in the hallway was immediately reduced by half, and Lin Yao and Mu Wenxi also rushed back to the classroom.
The professor walked into the classroom with a glass of water. He reopened the courseware and continued: “The prisoner’s dilemma we mentioned in the previous lesson concluded that both suspects will choose to confess. This is actually a balanced result of both parties’ decision-making. Call it a Nash equilibrium, but the result is not the optimal state of both parties.”
Lin Yao quickly plunged into it.
After class, Lin Yao and Mu Wenxi walked to the cafeteria together.
Mu Wenxi complained as usual, expressing that she wanted to change classes, and then she changed her conversation, “Stop talking about this, let’s go together after school, you have to wait for me.”
They didn’t choose all the classes together, the afternoon class was different, so Mu Wenxi told her about it in advance.
Lin Yao blinked at her, “I can’t ask for a ride.”
Mu Wenxi pursed her lips and smiled, “I think many of my classmates come by car. Are you going to come by bus all the time?”
Lin Yao nodded, “Yeah.”
Mu Wenxi frowned, “Last time, didn’t you say that you have a driver’s license? Why didn’t you buy a car?”
Why not buy a car if you have a driver’s license?
This is really a good question. I don’t know how many people in China have never driven a car after getting their books!
Lin Yao sighed and admitted: “I do have a driver’s license, but I really can’t drive.”
“How can I pass the driving test if I can’t drive?”
Then it’s a little hard to say, “It just happens to happen.”
“How can there be such a coincidence?” Mu Wenxi thought for a while, and suggested: “In that case, you should buy a car as soon as possible to practice, otherwise, you will not be able to drive in the future.”
This is exactly what Lin Yao worries about, “I’m also thinking about buying a car and driving when I save some money.”
Mu Wenxi asked casually, “Then are you ready to buy a car?”
Lin Yao blurted out, “mini.”
Mu Wenxi looked at her and said seriously: “That car is really suitable for you to drive.”
“Right?” Lin Yao grinned and said: “The appearance is cute, the model is small, and it is easy to park. It is especially suitable for me to drive.”
What Lin Yao said was that she had been working hard for a week when she moved to the library. It can be seen how bad the car skills are, and for the big car, she was afraid that she would not be able to park in the parking space.
It doesn’t mean that in other people’s ears.
“Shit.” Fang Weiliang, who was muffled next to him, whispered and said: “But the mini is very expensive, can you afford it?”
Expensive?
affordable?
Lin Yao and Mu Wenxi didn’t expect that Fang Wei would come out with such a sentence, she asked, “How much do you think you can afford?”
Fang Wei glanced at Lin Yao contemptuously, then snorted, “No matter how much you earn, it’s not something you can afford.”
Lin Yao suddenly understood why Fang Wei would take this attitude well.
She also found out that the students who came to graduate school were probably from good backgrounds, and they were all well-dressed.
Everyone’s dress styles are very different, and people who wear luxury goods have them. Even if they don’t wear luxury goods, the casual clothes they wear are often the latest models of the season that are newly listed abroad.
But does she have to follow suit what people wear?
Do I have to be a luxury if I have money?
Lin Yao is different from everyone else. The clothes she wears are all bought during Lingyun, and she mainly wears commuter wear at a low price.
After leaving Lingyun, she hasn’t been shopping for clothes for a long time.
These situations can be seen in her dress style.
Lin Yao didn’t care about it at first.
She came here with a clear goal: to learn, not to compare with others, not to mention that she never felt that there was anything wrong with her dress.
And she has a lot to do, and she really doesn’t care about her external image.
Besides, her dressing is not so shabby.
Mu Wenxi was very protective of the scorpion, and she immediately stood up, “If you can’t afford it, you can represent yourself. Don’t include others as well.”
In other words, Lin Yao couldn’t afford a car, and there was no room for others to say anything about it.
Mu Wenxi treats people enthusiastically. She is always smiling and friendly to everyone. She rarely speaks with a straight face like this moment.
Fang Wei originally wanted to mock Lin Yao for a few words, and then to praise Mu Wenxi for a few words. He didn’t expect that he would make Mu Wenxi unhappy, and his tone suddenly became weak. How can it be possible to save money to buy a mini by yourself?”
What he meant was that Lin Yao couldn’t afford it, and if he really wanted to buy it, he would definitely have to rely on others.
Lin Yao didn’t want to care about with people like Fang Wei, but he kept pressing, and seemed to spread his anger on Lin Yao, “Besides, do you know how much it costs to buy a mini? Just keep buying a mini. !”
This person is simply inexplicable!
Lin Yao was immediately annoyed, and said coldly: “I will only consider the car I can afford. You don’t need to worry about other things.”
Mu Wenxi’s brows tightened. “The average working-class may really not be able to afford it, but Lin Yao even bought a house. How could he not be able to afford a car?”
“Buying a house?” Fang Wei was sour suddenly, he said without hesitation: “What was the house price last year? What was it this year? A 50% increase in a year is definitely not normal! Everyone said that the house price in Hangzhou would plummet during this period of time. It’s too late to sell a house, how can anyone still want to buy a house?”
Lin Yao bought the Jingjingyuan house almost a year ago, when the house price had just started to rise, and her landlord sold it to her at the previous price, which was almost two years ago.
The office building she bought was also cheaper because of the location and supporting facilities.
It is undeniable that housing prices have indeed risen rapidly recently, and relevant departments have successively introduced a series of control policies. This has convinced a large number of people that today’s housing prices are already inflated and the property market bubble is about to burst… For example, Fang Wei.
At the same time, some people think that the current property market is still imbalanced in supply and demand, and there is room for further increases in Hangzhou’s housing prices, such as Lin Yao.
Lin Yao didn’t care: “I bought a house for my own use, not investment, so the rise or fall of house prices has nothing to do with me.”
Mu Wenxi angrily said, “That’s right, the person who bought the house provoke you? Is there such a curse?”
After saying this, the two left without looking back.
Fang Wei froze in place, stammering: “Wen Xi hasn’t bought it yet? Has she already bought it? Say it early!”
He did this to step on Lin Yao in front of the goddess. In this way, he attracted the attention of the goddess. Unexpectedly, he would offend the goddess, and Fang Wei regretted it.
Others came up and said with emotion: “Oh, I’m going, are the girls so good these days? You can buy houses just as you like.”
Everyone can afford to buy a house~www.mtlnovel.com~ and he is laughing at others for not being able to afford a mini?
Fang Wei’s face changed, “What’s the enviable thing about buying a house? By then, housing prices will plummet, and it will be too late to cry!”
Others disagreed, “Lin Yao is right, people who buy a house for self-occupation, regardless of whether the house price rises or falls, there is no big difference.”
Fang Wei did not show any weakness, “This is not the case. She buys a house with a mortgage, right? How much is her down payment? If the house price drops by 50%…”
“If you drop by 50%, do you think too much? The relevant department’s policy has always been stable, healthy, and sustainable development. Even the skyrocketing must be curbed. How can it be allowed to plummet?”
“Yes, I think the trend of the real estate industry will stabilize in the future…”
…
Lin Yao didn’t know that she and Mu Wenxi had inadvertently caused a dispute among the boys about the future direction of the property market, and they had already arrived in the cafeteria and easily found Cui, who was particularly eye-catching in the crowd.
