Chapter 40 Crown Casino

The top ten casinos in the world are not only determined by scale, revenue, turnover and rich gameplay, but also by various factors. However, one thing is certain that the top ten casinos are definitely not fame, nor are they that underground casinos like Bihui can look up to.

The annual operating volume of the top ten casinos is as high as 500 billion US dollars. Compared with the trillion-dollar gambling funds that appear to flow out every year, it accounts for nearly 40%. This shows the status of the top ten casinos in the gambling world.

The previous top 100 casino open competition was held in Lisboa Macau, and this competition was successfully won by the Melbourne Casino in Australia. Of course, this cannot be as ostentatious as the Olympics. However, since the top 100 competitions were held, the hosting rights have often fallen into the hands of the top 10 casinos, which is not surprising.

In Australia, only two casinos are allowed per city, and most of the other countries that make gambling have such conditions. Of course, in addition to Las Vegas, Atlantic City and Macau, there are also the world-famous four major casinos in Monte Carlo.

That means that it is difficult for other people who are not shortlisted for the top ten casinos to compete for the right to hold this item in a cooperative manner. However, then again, whether it is strength or other convenience, the hosting of the top ten casinos can bring commitment to safety guarantees for participation, which is obviously worth it.

The Top 100 competition was truly developed after the 1970s. At that time, many European countries opened up the gambling industry. Of course, everyone said it was the gambling industry, not gambling, which could dispel public criticism to the greatest extent. If gambling is said in Lisboa, staff will immediately make a solemn statement, that is not gambling, but gambling.

This year's Top 100 Tournament is already the 16th, and Melbourne, Australia has obtained the right to host. In this regard, it has to be admitted that this right to host is indeed equivalent to a gold mine, just like the Olympics can drive the economy. The right to host the Top 100 Tournament can drive the development of the gambling industry and has huge profits. No other casinos are eager to win.

In a sense, being able to obtain the hosting rights is also a symbol of casino strength. For example, the Wake Villa in South Korea and the Genting Entertainment City in Malaysia obtained the hosting rights after its rise, which established its status as one of the top ten casinos in one fell swoop.

Melbourne's Crown is not entirely known as Australia's largest casino. In terms of operating income, Sydney's Harbour Casino is also comparable. However, the biggest difference is that Melbourne has held the Top 100 competitions, so it has become Australia's largest casino.

There are 15 authorized casinos in the six states and administrative regions of Australia, six of which are successfully listed on the Australian Stock Exchange. Crown Casino is located not far from the river bank in the heart of Melbourne. In addition to 350 gambling tables and 2,500 slot machines, there are 500 super five-star standard rooms, 40 restaurants, 19 bars, 3 nightclubs, 14 theaters and a 500-meter shopping promenade.

Since Yi Fei dared to come here, of course he had to know about it in advance. However, he came here not to make money, but just wanted to explore the way and learn about the top 100 games. After staying in the VIP room in the hotel, Yi Fei and the others are now enjoying the surrounding environment in the restaurant.

Luo Weidong didn't understand, he simply didn't understand why Yi Fei brought him a casino? Yi Fei smiled slightly at him. He knew that Luo Weidong wanted to know why. So, he had to be responsible for providing the answer: "Do you like gambling?"

"Of course I don't like it. This is something that hurts people a lot. Don't tell me, we are here to bet!" Although Luo Weidong was proud, Yi Fei in front of him was his boss after all, and he was not embarrassed to make his tone very harsh when he treated him like a friend.

"It's not a great thing to come here to bet." Qi Yuan glanced at Luo Weidong disdainfully. Those who dared not try bravely will never know the taste of life.

Yi Fei nodded. Gambling did cause several families to be destroyed. For example, there were more than once reports that international students lost money and were driven back to China by the Australian government. However, he had another opinion on this: "I read less, but I know that one sentence is reasonable."

"Many archaeological discoveries have discovered the existence of gambling tools, which means that gambling may even exist when humans exist. Since it is such a long-standing thing, it can still be active and popular today, what does that mean?" At this point, Yi Fei paused and forked a piece of lobster on the plate and put it into his mouth.

After a while, he was confused while Luo Weidong, and Qi Yuan continued to say in his smirk: "The gambling expenditure circulating on the books alone exceeds 1200 billion US dollars, not to mention the underground casinos that have not been recorded. This means that gambling is something that cannot be stopped. Since it cannot be stopped, why must we kill it? Why can't we guide it?"

"The tax paid by SJM last year was more than 15 billion yuan. Without this money, the work of the Macau government and citizens' lives would not work normally!" Yi Fei decided to brainwash Luo Weidong, which would help his future work: "The reason why countries open up gambling is because of the huge interests in this regard."

"In addition, open gambling can allow things that were originally conducted in secret to surface and gain effective and powerful control. You should know that gambling is always a sin. Since it cannot be stopped, why not guide and control it?"

Yi Fei wiped his mouth leisurely, then leaned comfortably on the chair and stared at Luo Weidong. For a moment, Luo Weidong didn't know what to make a defense. He felt that what Yi Fei said made sense. Instead of letting the sin happen quietly, it would be better to use his own abilities to control it.

"Why is it a sin? Because some people lose money, some people win money!" Yi Fei did not intend to let Luo Weidong go immediately. He took a sip of water and then said slowly: "Some people win money, which aroused the jealousy of others, and ended up robbing and killing people. But is that really a necessary relationship with gambling? Robbery and killing people is not a patent for gambling in this world."

"Someone lost money, but his eyes were red, and he took risks, and the sin arose." Speaking of this, Yi Fei smiled. He felt that things in the world were really wonderful. Two or three months ago, he was probably still in a daze, but now he is enlightening his partner in Australia: "Gambling is not the root of sin, nor even sin, its existence is just a reasonable existence!"

"The real sin comes from humans. Because of greed, they try to use gambling to satisfy themselves. Can you imagine a monkey coming to gamble? Of course, it cannot, will it go rob because of losing? Even more unlikely!"

Speaking of this, Yi Fei was also a little confused. His words were said in his mouth, as if he was enlightening himself: "So things are innocent, but they highlight two sides because of the existence of human beings. But human beings who have always like to shirk responsibility have pushed those sins on things. Therefore, in their opinion, human beings themselves are innocent! But they do not know that human beings themselves are sinful."

Although Luo Weidong didn't like the feeling of being enlightened by Yi Fei, he couldn't help but admit that Yi Fei's speech was very effective and wonderful to dispel his original view. But he didn't know that Yi Fei's words also dispelled his own doubts.

Yi Fei is also wondering whether it is a wrong decision to take the gambling route? After all, gambling is a sinful product made by God in the eyes of the whole world. He likes to bet, but he does not mean that he is not disgusted with gambling. After all, he is a person who grew up in New China.

However, now he not only convinced Luo Weidong, but also convinced himself. Of course, gambling itself is not bad, and things themselves never have a distinction between good and bad. Only when external forces intervene will they be forcibly poured into good and bad.

Of course, gambling is not a good thing. As Yi Fei said before, gambling is just a manifestation of human greed, but no one dares to require all human beings to be saints. Therefore, putting aside the essence, gambling has indeed hurt several people, and it is really not a good thing. The so-called two-sided nature has been presented here very well.

"Okay, it's incisive!" A loud laugh was particularly loud and cheerful in the quiet restaurant. Yi Fei and the other two looked in the voice. A heroic young man walked over with a glass of wine and looked at the three of them: "I really want to know the three of them, I wonder if I will give me this opportunity."

"Of course, please sit down!" Yi Fei was slightly stunned, but his expression was not fluctuating. After introducing each other, he realized that this young man was called Ling Luori. Ling Luori was not handsome or handsome, but he always had a sense of wandering, and there was a ray of imperceptible loneliness hidden between his expression.

"I'm sorry to hear your conversation just now, but I think you're very reasonable!" Ling Luori sighed slightly, drank all the wine in the glass in one gulp, and then poured it on Yi Fei and the others' wine. Then he looked at Yi Fei: "The casino is using people's greed to make a profit. He wants to win if he wins, but he wants to make a profit if he loses. It's really good if he is a place where there are people," he said.

Ling Luori? Yi Fei thought silently, he seemed to have heard this name somewhere! Ling Luori looked at Yi Fei and couldn't help laughing: "Three people who can see the essence of gambling so clearly must be amazing. This time, do you want to come and enjoy the top 100 games, or do you want to play a few games?"

"Top 100 match?" Luo Weidong kept listening to Yi Fei's words silently, thinking in his mind. He thought that he might be able to get more things from it. There are sins where there are people. If it weren't for his outstandingness, how could he be excluded by other colleagues and have no talent to show his talent: "What is the Top 100 match?"

Ling Luori happily explained the top 100 matches to Luo Weidong, and then looked at the three of them with interest: "However, the tickets for the top 100 matches are not easy to get, and there are very few tickets for ordinary tourists. Most of them are for the rich. It's a coincidence that I have three tickets here, and the location is quite high, so I give them to you!"

Yi Fei did not refuse. He could see at a glance that Ling Luori was not the kind of person who likes to be polite: "Brother Ling, drink with him!"

The four of them gathered together to drink some wine. Driven by Ling Luori's generous personality, Luo Weidong invisibly brought the relationship between himself and Yi Fei closer, which was unexpected. He didn't drink much of this wine, and no one was even drunk, but everyone felt happy.
