In the offices of C01 Containment Facility, Warden.

Doctor and Warden are sitting on a long sofa.

In front of the two of them was a huge projection screen.

The picture projected is exactly this live broadcast.

Warden shook his head slightly, and then said softly, "Doctor, do you understand why Gambler did this?"

Doctor's brows frowned slightly.

He did not answer Warden's words immediately, but was thinking.

After learning about Authority controlled by Gambler, he had read books about lies.

But he searched through his memory and could not find any case similar to Gambler's performance.

The two people here know that Gambler is lying.

Moreover, this lie was carefully planned by them.

The purpose is to use Authority of Gambler to make this carefully planned lie become a reality.

What Doctor doesn't understand is why Gambler wastes so much time doing things that have nothing to do with lies.

Seeing Doctor's delay in answering, Warden said, "Actually, lying on the spot and lying in a plan are two different scenarios.

When it comes to lying, Gambler is a professional.

More professional than anyone else."

Doctor did not refute this view.

As Gambler who has mastered 'lie' Authority, he naturally understands lies better than anyone else.

Warden is Mentor of Doctor. At this time, on-site teaching is also started for Doctor.

He chuckled lightly and said, "Haha, this guy Gambler has a very delicate mind.

He knows very well what people really want to see.

But he just didn't let them see what they wanted to see.

He used some seemingly exaggerated and embarrassing performances to delay time and lower people's expectations."

Having said this, he paused.

Doctor still didn't answer, but he listened very carefully.

Knowledge does not only exist in books.

After seeing Doctor's expression, Warden nodded secretly, and then continued, "We spent a lot of money to lay out this lie in advance.

Under the platform of professional academics and the hype of the existing media.

The emergence of new energy sources has raised people's expectations to the highest level.

Everyone wants to see what this new energy source with official endorsement is like.

So the live broadcast started with everyone's anticipation.

As a result, Gambler was out of tune in front of the camera, which caused people's expectations to continue to drop."

At this time, Doctor suddenly said, "What is the meaning of doing this?

Shouldn't it be a bad thing if expectations are lowered?"

Warden waved his hand and said calmly, "This is where Gambler is smart.

He knew very well that if this idea of using biological blood as fuel was exposed at the highest point of expectations, people would feel disappointed.

Because this discovery was too simple and did not meet people's expectations.

In fact, because it does not meet people's expectations, doubts will soon arise.

After all, this argument is difficult to sustain."

When talking about this, Warden seemed a little thirsty.

He leaned forward and picked up the teacup on the coffee table.

After blowing gently, he took a sip along the rim of the cup.

After putting the tea cup back, Warden continued, "And when people's expectations, or patience, are exhausted because they can't get to the point.

People often enter a state of pseudo-calmness.

At this time, no matter what he says, people will question it.

The difference between the two methods is that the doubts in the latter arise from the beginning."

Doctor was a little confused and said, "Both methods will cause doubts, so what is the difference between the two methods?"

Hearing this, Warden laughed and said, "The difference is huge."

As he spoke, he leaned sideways, patted Doctor gently on the shoulder, and at the same time said to Doctor in a serious voice, "Many times, things in books cannot answer your questions.

You should set your sights outside of books, or outside of your major."

Doctor's brows furrowed again.

After taking a deep breath, he turned to look at Warden and said solemnly, "Mentor, please return Fountain Pen to me!"

Hearing this, Warden's expression became very embarrassed.

He touched his nose angrily.

The next second, a Fountain Pen with exquisite patterns slipped out from his White Lab Coat sleeve.

This is what he just took from Doctor.

Doctor picked up Fountain Pen, and then said with a strange look, "I have to say, your stealing methods are becoming more and more professional."

Warden scratched the black and white hair on the top of his head in embarrassment.

At this moment, his toes were dug tightly out of embarrassment.

If the ground was not paved with steel, Warden would probably have dug out a three-bedroom and one-living room with his toes at this time.

After a moment of silence, Warden quickly changed the topic.

At this time, the confidence in his words seemed a little lacking.

"You just said, what is the difference between the two methods.

It's actually very simple.

Let me give you an analogy and you will understand.

If you lie and tell me you have three candies.

I believed it.

Because I particularly like candy, I asked you to take it out immediately.

And you don't have any candy in your pocket, can you get it?"

Doctor didn't speak, just shook his head slightly.

Seeing this, Warden said again, "This is still the metaphor.

You lied and told me you had three candies, but I remember you don't have the habit of eating candies, so I don't believe it.

Doubts arose from the very beginning.

Since I don't believe you at all, I have no expectations for you.

Therefore, I will not rush you to take out the candy immediately.

Then you walked into the canteen next door in front of me and bought three candies.

At this time, you tell me again that you have three candies, do you think I believe it or not?"

Hearing this, Doctor's eyes suddenly lit up.

Without waiting for Doctor to speak, Warden continued with a smile, "Now do you think Gambler's approach is smart enough?"

Doctor nodded heavily and said, "It is indeed brilliant.

When buying candy in front of you, the lie has already been realized.

The process of realization is that you see with your own eyes the process of me buying candy.

The former is different, because when I can't bring out the candy, you have lost all trust in me.

Even if I went to buy candy right away, the lie would have been exposed long ago."

Warden laughed and said, "Haha, so do you think it is easier to handle when doubts arise at the very beginning, or is it easier to deal with doubts when they arise at a critical moment?"

Doctor did not answer this question.

Because the answer is already obvious.

Doubts arise at the very beginning, so you just need to find a way to resolve them.

And if the doubts appear at the end, then all methods of resolving the doubts are lost.
