Psychological Control - Chapter 59

On the last day of my life in the camp, because Rhett and I were silent, there wasn’t much point in shooting soon. Red and I watched as the sky darkened, and came back to the shooting scene of the tribal conference with the drafts already in my heart.

Jeff’s opening remarks were nothing special, and then it was our personal speaking time. Red was the first to start. Like a report, he first stated his every important action strategy in the game, and then explained why he did it. Finally, it ends with the reason for participation.

“Because my friends and colleagues want me to take a good break from work and exercise social skills, the survivors signed up for me. And I gave them to the last answer sheet. Can I say this I have no regrets along the way. Thank you for your support. “Rhett concluded with this sentence.

After the jury politely applauded, Jeff reopened to take over the host and said, “Very good. Brian, it’s your turn. When both of them have finished speaking, the jury members will come forward in turn, thinking about you Ask the question. And Rhett, Brian, you have to answer it on the spot. “

I stood up at his signal and looked at every member of the jury. One of the language arts that Neil Caffrey entrusted to me is to make eye contact when trying to convince others. Without unavoiding eye contact, it not only enhances the persuasiveness of your own words, but also makes the listener more attentive.

Looking at each face, I saw the scorching gaze of Dillon sitting at the back. Unconsciously, I felt a more sincere smile on my face. Looking away, I secretly settle down.

“Everyone knows that after entering the merger phase, the beautiful tribe alliance I was in was in a disadvantaged position because of the combination of the wisdom tribe and the power tribe.” I said with a smile and finally spoke. “And that’s why, at the beginning of the merger phase, I was defensive.”

Unlike Rhett’s last lecture as an assignment report, I take these two minutes as the most important canvassing time. It can also be said that it is time to slap.

Previous contestants came to this part, either to mention how strong they are in the competition, or to talk about how they are worth the million dollars. But in fact, compared to Rhett’s work report, it is not so clever as to draw votes.

You know, the members of the jury were your opponents before. The opponents you defeated, how can you be better than them in the presence of them? Want to really get the ticket in this case. We should hold on to them while we sell ourselves.

“Because of Mario and Austin’s physical strength and demonstrated leadership. They are the first people in our tribe to be targeted.” While talking, I looked at Mario and Austin side. “Presumably, in the eyes of most of the people I was present before, it wasn’t actually a popular figure?”

The phrase “our tribe” is a key point, which will strengthen Mario and Austin’s subconscious support for me. After all, humans have a team complex. At the beginning of the game, we were a team that really faced two enemies.

The latter rhetorical question is also the focus of my speech. Show weakness.

Look, it’s not that I’m too powerful, but you are too undervalued. So you are defeated by an opponent who has been downplayed, which is no wonder the opponent isn’t it? What you should do is not to continue to hate me, but to reflect on your own intentions. Regret this feeling of self-blame can alleviate the hostility to me caused by jury members’ mentality to a certain extent.

“The early golden mean was very useful. Mingzhe saved himself, so I also had more time to prepare for the counterattack. So after they were eliminated and I became the first target of the crowd, I worked out a comprehensive counterattack plan. “

“And everyone knows the result. By virtue of the alliance with Rhett, I assassinated Casey as a counterattack.” Speaking here, I did not avoid the scrutiny of Casey’s inspection. Instead, he went on to say generously: “The reason is just like what Rhett said just now, because she is too powerful. We have to combine and eliminate her before the whole situation has completely fallen into her control.”

Raising an introverted smile at Casey, I uttered something that was like a flatterer with another feeling. “Case’s ability to analyze the situation reveals her savvyness as a lawyer. Therefore, she was my most vigilant opponent at the time.” An ironic word made Casey’s face a lot better. .

For a woman with a strong personality such as Casey, the poor and blind interpretation would not get her understanding and sympathy. Only speak upright, yes, I won you. And I am proud to win, because you are a complimentary opponent. In this way, she can get her approval.

“Sure enough, Casey’s departure also completely destroyed the wisdom tribe and the power tribe alliance.” I continued, “the rest of Anna and my beautiful tribe, after accepting the remaining two of the wisdom tribe, Rhett and Selena , We have the upper hand again against the power tribe … “

I noticed that Anna’s face was still not very good. Maybe her vote was more difficult than Casey’s. But in comparison with Rhett, I think she still has a good chance to vote for me. After all, we got along well before the conflicts in the later stages of the merger.

While compiling every soothing word that I had already done in the draft, I compiled it into the competition summary and started to think about the questions that the jury members might ask.

“The last is Dillon. I think the alliance between me and him should really start after that resort trip. Everyone knows about the shark hunting event, but in fact that is just the stage when we just got to know each other. According to the agreement, we will The first decision is to enter the top three together. But I will not deceive everyone. After I entered the top three, I have already decided to eliminate Dillon. “

“Everyone knows that he has a bigger advantage than me when facing a jury. If it was me and Dillon who entered the last two, my chances of getting most of the votes were far below 30%. So Before the final individual waiver, we said we had to do our best. “

When I said this, my eyes kept meeting with Dillon. Originally, I just wanted to repeat the verbatim word by word, but in the process of staring at his eyes, I suddenly felt that there was no mask-like smile on my face. Just a quiet gaze.

I suddenly understood. Understand what it is for him that really attracts his attention.

It’s not what I used to attract others’ attention and get the skin that everyone loves. It’s not that I’m smooth in my dealings, and my tongue is brilliant. Not even that I deliberately seduce him after I decided to like him too. It’s the kind of strength that can really compete with him. Only me like this will not make him bored, right?

“In the end, I won. As the last person to be eliminated, I am proud of my victory in this set. I also think that I should dedicate myself to the efforts and finally get the due prizes. I hope everyone can finally Vote for me, thank you. “

After closing, I sat back next to Rhett. The position where we were sitting at this time was different from the place where the tribe eliminated one-person meetings in the past. We were in the middle of the entire site, and the bonfire that lit the torch was burning behind us. Just a few meters away, there were jury members.

I understand that the setting of the program group is also to increase the tension and investment of participants in the competition. This will make the show more brilliant.

“Okay, then it’s time to ask questions. Everyone has a question. Does anyone want to ask the first question?” Jeff took the conversation again after I sat down.

“Come on, I have a question for Rhett and Brian to answer.” Mario stood up, raising his hand first.

He walked less than two meters in front of us, in the open space between the jury and us. Mario looked at me and said, “Brian, Rhett. The game between you two has been explained very clearly in the speech just now, so I won’t ask any more. But I want to know that outside of the game you guys What could be more worth this million bonus? “

“Because I am an orphan, and I need a sufficient amount of money to support my life and learning.” On this issue, I did not avoid but said very directly. “Although because of the part-time job of the model and the work of the commercial dance troupe two years ago, I saved enough money for one or two years of tuition and miscellaneous expenses and living expenses. “

“I haven’t attended any public school, but Stanford who has taken the self-study exam.” I smiled as I watched the crowd’s surprised expression.

Then I continued in a bland tone: “Now I’m a Psychology student at Stanford University. But three years ago, I was locked up in a remote mental health home in Miami. I saw my mother in person when I was a kid. Being killed has caused me a serious mental illness. “

I did not disclose what my psychological problem was, but made everyone think that it was just a sequelae of trauma, and naturally it was better than high-risk antisocial personality disorder. Although on the medical record I am almost in a state of recovery.

“So I think at least this million dollars can be a little compensation from God for my life. With no one to help, I have come here. I hope to get everyone’s support to go more stable and farther .Thank you.”

In the shock of everyone’s eyes, I put a pitiful smile on my face, and sat back again. Obviously, Anna’s expression has softened. This moving story is always the greatest murderous force for women. Even a woman like Casey, who can be called strong to cold-blooded, has moved on her face. Selena was already red-eyed.

In fact, my almost completely oppressive story effect brought awkward situations to Rhett who would answer next. But I can’t control that much anymore, asking questions is the most important opportunity to deepen everyone’s influence. I can’t give up the answer to every question.

What’s more, these are facts. I just don’t want to die like some “stubborn” poor children. No money is no money, using this kind of sympathy is my strategy. What is ashamed? This is the anti-social personality mentality. As long as it can bring benefits for itself, it does not matter if it is used by itself.

Rhett’s answer is a little too formal. He obviously does not like to put himself in a weak position and sympathize. There may be many unsatisfactory things in his life, but Rhett is not like me who can easily tell his own life.

After Austin and Selena, they were not a few tricky questions. It was finally Casey’s turn to stand up. When she asked, the point we always wanted to cover up.

“Although Brian and Rhett, you both said that you decided to form an alliance because the interests of the two people were in the same direction. But I want to ask Rhett how can you guarantee that Blaine is a credible person, and so He easily gave his only hole card to him? And Brian, how did you know that Rhett got the hidden saving grace? “

Rhett first glanced at me, and with the encouragement of my eyes, he opened his mouth and wrote the words in advance: “To be honest, my alliance with Blaine was actually passive at the beginning. Blaine speculated that I I got the hidden exemption and scammed in the conversation. This is my fault. “

“He told me that if he didn’t align with him, he would tell the public about the hidden idols in my hand. And I didn’t want to make myself the target of the crowd, so I promised him. I will make my own The hole card came out to allow our new league to move to an advantageous position. Although it was not my use, it was not wasted. It was really the key to turning the situation around. “

It was almost a rap, and I said immediately after Rhett answered: “I was in a critical moment, and I temporarily thought that this move could go. At the time, except Rhett and Jane, I originally went Everyone who has passed the Exile Island has been eliminated. So I just bet on a one-half chance and then I won. “

Casey looked at me for a while, and finally nodded and agreed. But some of the members of the jury behind her appeared in a sudden realization.

After several innocuous questions, the last jury member left without a question is Dillon. When he eliminated, the two of us embraced everyone’s attention. It can also be said that his vote has been regarded as mine by everyone.

Everyone watched Dillon stand up and walk in front of me. Under everyone’s attention, Dillon asked a question that made everyone cry and laugh.

“Bryan, I have only one question. In this game, do you think of me only between the alliance and the mutual use. And after the game, will you continue to keep in touch with me?” This It’s hardly a question that a calm and restrained person would ask. But I laughed at the flower because of his problem.

At least I’m not hot, am I?

“Of course. If you want, I can give you my contact information now.” I smiled and narrowed my eyes like a fox who sneaked into the farm to raise chickens. “If you want to continue developing the relationship with me, It’s better as I thought. “

As I was talking, I took out the carry-on pen from my carry-on baggage, which was about a month old, and was about to run out of ink. He walked in front of him, pulled his palms that were slightly dry, and wrote down a series of numbers in his palms.

“Wait,” Jeff laughed out and presided over the atmosphere in the cheering atmosphere of the scene. “Although this kind of serious stage in the show, it was the first time to ask for a phone call. But Dillon, and you still haven’t asked Rhett.”

“Oh. How are you?” Howareyou? Dillon turned his head and asked Rhett.

“… fihankyou? …” Rhett replied hesitantly. The solemn atmosphere in the tribal conference was swept away in the end. Perhaps this jury member’s question will become a famous scene in the history of survivors.

All in all, the one-month-old survivor game is finally over. It feels good to be back in the metropolis soon. 2k novel reading network
