The name of Deal or No Deal in Chinese is 一擲千金, a 4-character phrase literally translated as 'Stake a thousand pieces of gold in one throw' (一 = one, 擲 = throw/cast, 千 = thousand, 金 = gold). Metaphorically, this can mean "Throw away money like dirt" or "Spend money like water". At the same time, 擲 has the same pronunciation of 擇, which means to choose, so there is another implication meaning of "to make a decision which related to thousands of money". Linda de Mol, host of Miljoenenjacht (and the sister of Endemols founder), enters the game shows set. ...


The set is identical to the US version, but the show uses the Miljoenenjacht theme tune and the sound effects are from Deal Ya No Deal. Miljoenenjacht; in English, Hunting Millions; is usually the name of Deal or No Deal in Dutch-speaking countries. ... Deal Ya No Deal is the Indian version of Deal or No Deal. ...
