He is Ma Jianjun, born in 1970, 50 years old, and a plumber who has been rooted in construction sites all his life.
He lived frugally for half his life, holding on to 120,000 hard-earned money, guarding a 60-square-meter demolished resettlement house to support his unemployed wife and son who was studying. He is a down-to-earth person who will stop playing cards if he wins or loses over 100. He has only played small-scale swindlers a few times in his life and has never gambled. He is even more convinced that he will never become a gambler.
An accidental pop-up on his mobile phone dragged him into the abyss of bloodless online gambling.
Guessing the size and choosing one of the two, the seemingly 50-50 probability made him think that he had found a shortcut to get rich because he thought he had a quick mind. He studied the rules diligently and devised a multiplier rule of 1, 3, 7, 15... And determined that hitting the same side four or five times in a row was the limit. After a few small wins, he became more confident and tried to use this "sure-win method" to change his family's life.
He never thought that this seemingly fair bet was a carefully arranged slaughterhouse from the beginning.
When seventeen "big" dragons fell down one after another without any warning, all probabilities, patterns, and confidence collapsed.
Half of his life savings were wiped out in an instant, and all his life insurance money was lost. He grew old overnight, madly self-tortured in the endless regrets, forcing himself to smile in front of others to maintain his dignity, but was eaten away by shame and guilt and turned into a walking corpse. He stood by the window several times and wanted to die, but he could not let go of his wife and children. He felt ashamed of this flesh and blood relationship.
It only took a few days to go from a diligent and enterprising craftsman to a down-and-out sinner who lost everything.
This life-threatening incident cost him half his life's hard work, shattered his family's stability, and made him see clearly
