The next day, Chen Xi got up and stretched.

I talked with my future father-in-law for a long time yesterday, so I stayed overnight at Saeki's house.

After stretching his muscles, he felt something was wrong. He turned his head and found a girl behind him, staring at him.

"Oh my god, you scared me." Chen Xi reached out his hand, hugged Sazhi in his arms, and said while scratching her little nose.

"Hmph, you bad guy." Saori's pretty face turned red and she pouted.

"I was wearing a mask, how did you recognize me yesterday?"

"I can recognize your filthy behavior even if it turns into ashes."

"Haha."

"What did you talk about with my father yesterday? Does he agree that we should be together?" Saori's eyes were full of anticipation.

"Let's not talk about this for now. Tell me why you left without saying goodbye?" Chen Xi changed the subject.

"Hmph, you big bad guy, there are other women outside, not Zhao Lingshan!" Saori grabbed the man's arm and bit it.

After a long while, she raised her head and asked curiously, "Why don't you hide?"

"It's okay, it's all my fault. If you want to bite, go ahead." Chen Xi's eyes were full of guilt.

"You just pretend to be pitiful. I'm not a little girl. Don't try that on me." Saori turned her head away angrily.

"Yeah, you tricked me before we were together, you're such an expert in love." Chen Xi hummed, his hands wandering dishonestly on her body.

But the next second, Saori frowned.

"What's wrong? Is your injury still not healed?"

"Ah."

Hearing the man's caring words, the girl's expression looked much better.

"Let me see." Chen Xi gently pulled open the girl's kimono and put his head closer.

"Pervert." Saori blushed and slapped his hand away.

"You are already an old married couple, and you still care about this. What have I not seen in you?"

"Hmph, I'm ignoring you. You haven't explained what's going on between you and that girl yet."

"Hey……"

At this point, Chen Xi could only tell the truth about what happened between him and Xia Lian.

Saori frowned as she heard this.

Since there was a Zhao Lingshan, she just endured it because it was hard to tell who came first or later.

Now there is another Xia Lian. How can she accept this?

It is a great shame for the eldest daughter of the Saeki family to share a man with two other women.

Lunch time.

Chen Xi, Saori and Tian Zhongyou were kneeling there together, with a small table in front of each of them.

On the main seat, a middle-aged woman was looking at them.

"You must be Saori's boyfriend in Australia. He looks good, but unfortunately he is a foreigner. The Saeki family has never accepted a foreign son-in-law, so your appearance really opens my eyes. I know that Saori likes you, but as a man, if you can't protect your woman, how can you be called a qualified partner?" Saori's mother, Masako Saeki, looked at the young man in front of her unkindly.

Why ask again?
I asked you again last night, do you and your husband sleep in separate rooms?

Chen Xi's heart was full of complaints.

"Mother...don't always think about breaking us up. Do you want to see your daughter live out her life alone?" At this time, Saori jumped out to defend Chen Xi, and the threat in her words was exactly the same as what she said in the ancestral hall yesterday.

Of course, Chen Xi was not the kind of man who would hide behind a woman. He coughed lightly and said, "Aunt, I talked a lot with my uncle yesterday. I won't say more. I will make Saori happy. As for the Saeki family's affairs..."

Chen Xi wanted to say something but stopped talking, but Masako Saeki understood everything. She looked around carefully and then said nothing more.

Saori tilted her head curiously and looked at her man. She didn't know what Chen Xi talked about with his father last night, but just one sentence could make the nagging mother stop objecting. There must be some deal involved.

Chen Xi's impression of Saori's parents is that her father is a highly educated person, who was once an overseas student and has a relatively open mind. Her mother, on the other hand, is a bit traditional and methodical, and she probably wants to find a local son-in-law.

After dinner, a man and a woman stood side by side in the courtyard. Snowflakes fell silently from the gray sky, covering the ancient mansion with a layer of white and mysterious veil.

The pine and maple trees in the courtyard were covered with snow, and their branches were hung with crystal clear icicles, which was breathtakingly beautiful.

"Jin Nana is gone..." Chen Xi thought about it and decided to tell the bad news.

"What? Nana..."

"She has recovered her memory, and we also..." Chen Xi opened his mouth, not knowing what to say, and the second half of the sentence became a little unclear.

"What?" When Saori heard this, her eyes widened instantly, her face full of disbelief. Her little hands unconsciously clenched into fists, and nervousness jumped at her fingertips.

However, the momentary anger and shock were quickly replaced by a helpless acceptance, and her fists slowly unclenched.

There are already three, so one more doesn't seem to make any difference. Besides, Jin Nana's situation is special. She completely treats Chen Xi as her boyfriend.

Saori kept brainwashing herself in her heart.

But even so, a normal person still cannot accept all this, after all, she is her best friend.

Anger, resentment, jealousy, these complex emotions are like colors on a palette, intertwined on her face.

Seeing the girl's conflicted look, Chen Xi hugged her in his arms and leaned down to kiss her lips.

Saori, who was originally trembling due to anger, gradually calmed down under this sudden gentle attack, and her body gradually stopped resisting. Instead, she began to respond to Chen Xi in an active manner, as if she was using this method to express her complex emotions and inner decisions.

The atmosphere between the two of them became subtle and harmonious at this moment. All words turned into silent understanding and communication, leaving only the deep breaths and intertwined emotions between them.

"Baby, I know some things are unfair to you, but believe me, I will make you happy." After a long time, Chen Xi silently uttered a word.

"Pfft, have you said the same thing to them?" Saori suddenly laughed out loud and punched the man in the chest with her pink fist.

“No way…” Chen Xi’s old face turned red, as if the fig leaf had been torn off.

"What did you talk about with my father yesterday?"

"Ha, yesterday..."

Chen Xi gently placed his hand on Sazhi's shoulder, and their figures gradually overlapped on the snow, as if they had merged into one.

At this moment, whether it is the old mansion of the Saeki family or the snow-covered forest outside the window, they all seem to have become witnesses of their love, silently recording this pure and sincere love story that transcends culture. (Saori is very interesting, probably similar to other girls from the island countries, just like the people in anime and TV series.

When speaking, the tone of voice is very strong. For example, "Really?" is "hong dou ni de su ka" in Sakura language, and "Really?" in English. However, whether speaking Sakura language or English, Japanese girls will show a very surprised expression. It is similar when they say other things. It makes people feel that they are very emotional and can provide emotional value to men.

For example, when a boyfriend is ready to show off his talent in front of a girl and talk about some obscure knowledge, the girl will ask, "Really?" with a look of curiosity on his face, which makes people very willing to continue talking.

When the men have finished showing off, they will also compliment them with rich emotions, which makes people feel very comfortable. Then there are the foreigners. Although they don’t express as much emotion as the Japanese when speaking English, they also show a lot of emotion.

But I found that no matter what people in China say, their expressions are calm and robotic. Even when they laugh, they are a little restrained, as if they are afraid of being laughed at by others. I have to say that girls in Japanese countries are very good at providing emotional value to men, whether under the bed or in the bed. I think it may be that most families in Japanese countries emphasize that men are responsible for the outside and women are responsible for the inside, which leads to women relying on pleasing men to survive. For example, when the husband comes home, she will kneel on the ground to hand him slippers, and cheer you up when you go out. Unlike some fairies who want men to pay and do not provide emotional value.

Moreover, Japanese girls are very good at controlling men's hearts. I still remember when I was in high school, the school uniforms of Australian girls were the same as those of Japanese girls, which were JK. She deliberately rolled up her skirt, as if she would be exposed if she wasn't careful, but she was wearing safety pants underneath. Then she deliberately walked back and forth in front of me, so I would definitely look at her subconsciously, and then she slowly pulled her skirt down, making it seem like I was a pervert who was deliberately peeking at her, anyway, it made me feel itchy. )
A few days later, at Mo Village Airport.

Chen Xi strode out of the airport and stretched.

Just as he was about to walk towards the taxi, a man in a black suit stopped him and said, "Miss, please come over."

The person who came was Ma Yueling's bodyguard - A Da, who was also a comrade-in-arms who fought side by side with her in the West District Warehouse. Chen Xi didn't say anything when he saw this, but just nodded, but he was still a little dissatisfied in his heart.

This woman clearly knew his whereabouts, but she didn't tell him where Saori was before. She was so mean.

An hour later, in Crown, Ma Yueling's office.

"Have you dealt with the matter with Saori?"

"Ah."

"Then why didn't Saori come back with you?"

"I have an agreement with his father. I cannot take his daughter away before the matter is done." Chen Xi sat down on the sofa in a familiar manner. He still felt a little resentful towards Ma Yueling.

Seeing the man's little thoughts, Ma Yueling smiled softly and said, "Don't always blame others. This incident is entirely your fault. You can't even protect your own woman. By the way, I got you an identity as a foreign consultant for Crown."

"Foreign consultant? Why would you do that to me? I have a job. This is not a labor agency."

"Last time you said you could increase Crown's revenue. Because of what happened in the West District, there's a lot of tension between Parker and I..." Ma Yueling tapped the table with her pen.

Chen Xi thought about how Ma Yueling had helped him many times, so he put away his temper. "It's not difficult to increase Crown's revenue. The casino model in Australia is actually the same as the management model of Las Vegas, which is completely different from the Australian area. Although both sides have membership card systems, the core focus is different."

"Oh? What do you mean?" Ma Yueling shook her jade-white legs and looked at the man with interest.

The membership card grading system in Western countries such as Da Piaoliang and Australia is based on the time spent on entertainment, while the advanced membership card is based on the amount of money lost by the player. In Australia, the card grading system is based on the points of the player's betting turnover, which she knows very well.

However, Ma Yueling didn’t quite understand what the core focus Chen Xi had just mentioned was.

"The level of membership cards is viewed differently by players and casinos. Players feel that having a high-level membership card is a symbol of status, and this is also a way for casinos to control customers' mindsets. What casinos care about most is how much money customers can contribute to the venue, right?" Chen Xi picked up a cigarette and asked with his eyes if the other party could light it. He had been on a flight for more than ten hours and hadn't smoked a single puff yet. He felt a little uncomfortable.

Ma Yueling nodded, which was rare. In fact, she didn't like people smoking in front of her.

After lighting a cigarette, Chen Xi's mind seemed to work faster, and he continued, "The casino creates a membership card system. First, it is used to attract customers, because the higher the membership card level, the more benefits you enjoy. Second, the membership card can record the customer's entertainment situation. Now is the data age, and I don't need to explain this. Third, it is to analyze the customer's bets to determine which customers are high-quality customers and which customers are ordinary customers. There are many uncles and aunts in Cronw who sit at the table all day without placing a bet, and then cheat for free meals. These are not high-quality customers."

Ma Yueling nodded when she heard this. There are many old men and women in Crown and other Western casinos. They have retired and naturally have nothing to do every day. They come to the casino to watch others play, and they can eat and drink for free, and even get cash rewards. These people are useless except for bringing popularity to the casino.

Think about it, a person eats three meals a day in the venue, some even get free drinks, or get cash rewards of dozens or hundreds of dollars a day.

As a result, the casino's revenue has plummeted.

Because the current ordinary card upgrades in Western casinos are time-consuming. As long as you swipe the card, you will gain experience regardless of whether you play or not.

Of course, the casinos are not fools and will now make adjustments by not swiping cards for those customers who eat and drink for free.

There are also disadvantages to doing this, which is that fewer people will come and the popularity of the casino will seem insufficient.

Some guests, especially the local white people, just like the noise.

"Since you said so, there must be a good solution, right?" Ma Yueling asked, holding her cheek.

Chen Xi exhaled a puff of smoke and smiled: "Of course there is a way. First, we need to improve the welfare of casino members. Tu'ao is different from the Australian region. Most of the people who come here to play are locals in Victoria and some overseas people. I know that you have included air tickets, hotels and other services for overseas players. But the treatment of local players is mediocre, and local people may not need to stay in any hotel.

Well, it is to provide free meal coupons, shopping coupons, etc. After all, there are many luxury stores in the Crown building. Customers can spend money after entertainment here. Then it is to provide luxury hotel suites and upgrade the decoration of the hotel. After all, as long as the free things are luxurious, locals will be willing to stay here.

So this reward mechanism cannot be based on the original membership card system in Australia and Turkey. We imitate the points system, but it is different from the ordinary points system.

Do you have paper and pen?" Chen Xi said as he stood up.

Upon hearing this, Ma Yueling quickly handed over the items on the table.

Chen Xi was sitting on a chair, writing and saying, "The new mechanism will no longer focus on the amount of money lost and turnover of customers. The new framework for judging whether a customer is high quality is based on ADTE (average daily theoretical earnings). I modified this framework using financial theories, which is similar to the average daily trading volume and average daily rate of return in the financial market. You can also call it Chen's Law!"

When Ma Yueling heard this, she couldn't help but roll her eyes.

The man continued, "ADTE is an indicator used by casinos to evaluate a player's average daily value. The basic concept of this indicator is to calculate the average spending of the player in the casino based on the games the player plays, the house advantage of these games, and the average bet in the entertainment market. Then, based on this value, the amount of rewards the player can get in the casino is calculated. The calculation method of ADTE is ADTE = house advantage x average bet x game time.

Because different games have different house advantages, commonly known as different rakes, for example, slot machines have a higher house advantage than family and blackjack, while family and blackjack have a lower house advantage than roulette and dice.

Assume that the house edge of Jiajiale is 1.2%, and a player has bet an average of 1000 yuan in the past two hours, then ADTE is 24, which means that this customer may lose 24 yuan every day.

If an outsider heard what Chen Xi said, they might say, you are talking nonsense, some people bet tens of millions, how could they lose such a small amount of money.

In fact, the house advantage is very special for casinos. The reason why the real losses of players are not taken into account is that there are too many uncertain factors. Some people win money and some people lose money. And only looking at the entertainment results of one or two times cannot fully reflect the real value of a player. Therefore, ADTE is only a theoretical value, which is used to reflect the potential contribution of a player, rather than discussing how much money the player has lost.

Chen Xi said so much, and Ma Yueling, who worked in an entertainment venue, naturally understood.

"The customers in Australia are different from those in the mainland. Most of them are relatively wealthy. We should not always focus on those customers who bet big. Because they bet a lot, they are likely to win more. Although casinos don't care about that little money, they still care about income. My framework is used to find high-quality customers, that is, customers who can generate enough income for the casino. Some people bet a lot, but the income they generate may not be as much as the old men and women who sit at the slot machines for a few hours every day and bet only a few or tens of dollars each time.

Because the house edge of slot machines is relatively high, let me give you an example. Two players play the game at the same time, A is home, and B plays the slot machine. A's average bet amount is 1000, the game duration is 4 hours, and the house edge is 1.2%. B's average bet amount is 500, the game duration is 2, and the house edge is 5%. Finally, it is calculated that B's ADTE is higher than A's, so the casino should give him better treatment in terms of preferential rewards.

In reality, players often lose more money than theoretical expectations, but at the same time, some players often start to win money after expecting to lose a certain amount. This is why I prefer to look at the expected loss, because it will eventually tend to the average under enough players and time, which is the law of large numbers in mathematics!

There will also be differences in treatment between players who frequently go to the casino and those who do not. It does not mean that players who always go to the casino will be treated better than those who do not go often. Because in reality, people who frequently go to the casino tend to lower their budgets. People who do not go often may raise their budgets, after all, people who frequently go to the casino basically have no money.

For example, someone who comes once a week has a budget of 1000 yuan, while someone who comes once a month may have a budget of 10000 yuan. We only need to see who spends more on average. Therefore, in order to get these high-quality customers to come again, we should give them more generous treatment.

Let me do some calculations for you. Occasional guests usually don't eat that many meals or drink that much alcohol, which means they take up resources at the casino. Frequent guests also take up more resources at the casino, so I don't need to explain this issue of income and expenditure.

Next, I divided the ADTE value into three levels, which is an analysis of the characteristics of different players.

Low-level players may only visit occasionally, bet small, and play for a short time. Intermediate players bet moderately, play for a long time, and may visit regularly. Advanced players are high-stakes bettors and play for a long time! However, there may be differences in reality, so we still need to slowly collect customer data before judging.

We also need to pay attention to some special guests, that is, people who like high risks. They will place bets on games with higher house advantages. For example, dice, betting big or small is one to one, and the house advantage is obviously not as high as betting on leopards. Guests who like to bet on leopards are those who bet small for big gains..." At this point, Chen Xi thought of Tao Le's father.

He only buys leopards every time and contributes an unknown amount of money to the casino every day. This kind of customer must be treated well.

"In fact, ADTE is not a perfect calculation method, and it cannot even accurately evaluate the value of players, but I think it is enough for casinos. You have so many actuaries and psychologists, and you can continue to optimize this set of laws in the future. In order to improve the accuracy of its calculations, I think you can also consider providing different calculation methods for individual large customers. Now is the era of big data, and some things can be combined with technology..." Chen Xi's words have shocked Ma Yueling.

She stared at the young man in front of her for a long time, then said with her red lips: "You are such a genius!" (End of this chapter)
