As an atypical mathematician, he didn't understand the "car and sheep puzzles" and card counting skills in the film at all.
It's just the changes before and after the actor Jim Campbell "enters the play" that amazes me - from a blushing, shy, reserved young boy to an ambitious, greedy, stubborn mature man, this process is enough to make him confidently go to the show. Harvard Medical School Scholarships reach out.
Yes, gambling like an invisible big hand sculpted that cowardly Jim into a heroic figure, but it also made him sink into a life of spending money. And it's all because of money! Financial constraints, he needs a scholarship to study, he is forced to move blindly for his own interests; join the group, see the dawn of making money, the banknotes on the ceiling of the dormitory are gradually piled up like a hill; accompanied by beautiful women, the card table is reincarnated, and the time has passed can be filled in currency.

Weighing the left and right, is it a down-to-earth participation in the robot competition to get bonuses, or join a blackjack team to get rich overnight? If it was you, with a genius head, you would choose the latter.
In stark contrast to Jim are his classmates—two chubby four-eyed boys.
Perhaps, the director wanted to say: young man, both the paths of one step to the sky and the other to the ground have been pointed out to you. Let’s see which one you take?
