According to China Welfare Lottery News Network, on September 14th, after more than twenty days of waiting, the winner of the million-yuan prize from the 2011099 issue of Heilongjiang Province's "Double Color Ball" game finally appeared in the lottery redemption room at the welfare lottery center. Mr. Wang (a pseudonym) from Jiamusi claimed his million-yuan prize.
Mr. Wang won the grand prize with a small combination ticket. Mr. Wang won the top prize in the 2011099 issue of the "Double Color Ball" game with a 56-yuan "8+1" red zone combination ticket. In that draw, there were three first prizes and 61 second prizes nationwide. A lucky player from our province won one of the first prizes, with a single first-prize jackpot of 10 million yuan. The winning ticket was purchased at the No. 23080113 welfare lottery betting station located at the east gate of the Department Store Building in Xiangyang District, Jiamusi City.
Calm attitude, not rushing to claim the prize. As soon as we met Mr. Wang, he dispelled the long-standing doubt in our minds: why did it take so many days after the draw for him to come forward to claim the prize? Was it because he didn't know he had won? However, the truth was not what we imagined. With a calm demeanor, Mr. Wang said: "In fact, I knew I had won early on. On the day after the draw, I went to the lottery station to check the winning numbers and realized I had won the first prize. However, since there was a sick person in my family who needed my care, and considering my own age and poor health, I delayed coming to claim the prize."
Under normal circumstances, Mr. Wang should have been extremely excited, but instead, he chuckled and said: "At that moment, I remained very calm, perhaps due to maintaining a level-headed attitude throughout all these years of buying lottery tickets. When faced with the sudden arrival of the big prize, I gained more composure and tranquility."
A veteran lottery player persists in purchasing tickets and contributing love. We also learned that Mr. Wang has been playing the lottery for over ten years and is an avid veteran player. His favorite game is "Double Color Ball." He often studies the trend charts during his free time, but each time he selects numbers based on his intuition rather than strictly following the number trends. Each period, he invests anywhere from 10 to 100 yuan, having previously won multiple prizes of 3,000 yuan. Winning this grand prize was quite accidental for him, as he bought the combination ticket on his way to the hospital, just passing by the betting station to try his luck. It was this nonchalant act that brought him a rich reward.
Welfare Lottery brings blessings; the family now has life-saving money. When asked how he would use the prize money, Mr. Wang thought for a moment and said: "I haven't told my wife about this win yet. She is suffering from leukemia and is currently receiving treatment in the hospital. I'm afraid she might not be able to handle the news of me winning such a large prize well. If I tell her, she might get too excited, which could worsen her condition. So, I've kept it hidden from her until later when I can gradually let her know. I plan to use this money to treat her illness and hope she will become healthy again. Additionally, I intend to contribute a part of this money to help others, as I frequently read in newspapers about people in difficult living conditions needing assistance. Since it was the welfare lottery that brought me good luck, I also want to bring good luck to others through welfare means."
The rational attitude of Mr. Wang towards purchasing lottery tickets and his willingness to contribute love deeply moved us. We hope that luck will always accompany such silent contributors among lottery players.
