Go: 50-50 split between me and AI

Chapter 129 128. The Night
"Old Chen, you just need to take good care of your health at home, and you still have to spend a lot of time running to the chess academy.

We will make arrangements for the Asian Games, and we have adopted your opinions one by one. Why do you come here yourself? "

Liu Mingchuan, the current dean of the Chess Academy, stepped forward to help the gray-haired old man sit on the sofa.

I personally and respectfully ran to the kettle next to me to get a glass of water, took out the tea that I was usually reluctant to part with, brewed it, and handed it to the old man.

Facing the first dean of the Chess Academy, no matter how much he respects him, Liu Mingchuan can't feel it too much.

He achieved Marshal Chen's goal for Chinese Go and defeated Fusang Jiuduan.

Jiuduan, an island country known now as Mianjiu, was so powerful at the time that it overwhelmed the other two countries.

Chen Lao became the first Chinese to defeat Fusang Jiuduan.

And during his tenure as the president of the Chinese Chess Academy, he vigorously promoted Go, photographed related literary works, published books, and established a system, which made the Chinese Go population grow rapidly.

Not only Go, but as the president of the Chinese Chess Academy, Mr. Chen proposed a four-step strategy for chess a long time ago, which has profoundly affected the development of chess in the next ten years.

Hard work and high merit are not enough to sum up his achievements.

"Is this year's selection going to start?"

After taking a sip of tea, Mr. Chen felt that holding the enamel cup was a bit strenuous, so he could only put the cup aside.

Liu Mingchuan nodded when he heard this: "It will start next week, and this time we plan to select about 90 people. Our main goal is to focus on the new generation born in the 95s and [-]s.

In addition to those born in the 90s like Shi Mingzhi who have already started to achieve results in international competitions, the post-95s have also exploded with all their strength recently, producing many outstanding players.

Even if it is just emerging, it can be seen that the potential is unlimited. "

Hearing the news about the new generation, Mr. Chen couldn't help showing a smile: "I heard that there is a newcomer in Go recently, and Lao Nie told me when he went to see me.

This year, I have won a lot of games since I decided on a dan, and I haven’t lost yet, and I have won several nine dans. It is said that the nickname in your chess academy is now called Devil Boy. "

Hearing this nickname, Liu Mingchuan couldn't help laughing: "Haha, it's the nickname given by those guys.

The main reason is to play against this little guy. If you lose, your rating will be too bad. If you win a few more rounds, you won't be able to win back.

Although the little guy has won a lot of games in a row, after all, the initial rating is relatively low, and he has only entered the top 100 until now, which is really a depth bomb. "

"Well, this also exposes some problems with the inadequacy of the grading system.

After the problem with the rank system back then, we thought of using rating points for assistance, but now we see that rating points have a certain delay. "

Liu Mingchuan nodded and expressed his opinion: "Although there is a certain delay, it is still the best solution so far.

After all, there is no perfect method in this world, there are still too few geniuses, and ratings are still applicable to most chess players. "

"But we should also give young chess players more opportunities.

I said before that I want to expand the scale of holding the World Series qualifiers. How is the promotion going here? "

Hearing this, Liu Mingchuan quickly reported the situation: "The main thing is to discuss with the sponsors, after all, if there is a large-scale preliminary election, they will have to pay more.

You also know that most of the sponsors are also out of hobbies. No matter how much a private owner likes it, it is impossible to sponsor regardless of the cost. Go is not bad, but it is more difficult to get sponsors for chess.

We are also discussing some competitions with some cities with cultural heritage in various places, using Go to help them improve their city cards, and they can also pay to help us bring some competitions, which is a win-win cooperation.

The main thing is Zhejiang Province. After all, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai are where the economy is developing. "

"If you can find a way, let's find a way. The General Administration of Sports begged grandpa to sue grandma, and also tried to find a way to allocate some money.

It turned out that we didn't have enough background, and the people who were afraid of being upset were not strong enough, which made the already hard-to-win game even worse.

But now these new generations are emerging one by one, and the times are changing, so we can't be conservative, we have to change according to the changes of the times.

Just like this Asian Games selection competition, I proposed to let the new generation of chess players enter before selection.

One is to give newcomers a chance to practice, and the other is that even if a newcomer is selected, it doesn't matter if they lose. The more important thing is to look to the future.

We can finally come out of the thickness slowly now, but we still lack an indestructible sharp blade.

The survivors of Fen VI hoped to produce a chess player who was as unified as the first emperor. "

Just like this time when China hosted the Go game in the Asian Games, it didn't even dare to hold a single player game.

The three Go competitions are men's team, women's team and mixed doubles, because everyone thinks that if there is a single player game, Gao Yongxia must win the gold medal in the end.

Lu Li seems to be able to fight against the opponent in two teams in the past two years, but in fact, it is easy to be manipulated by the opponent in major competitions.

Chinese Go lacks a real leader who is on the world's first stage.

From myself to Lao Nie, Yu Xiaochun, Guangyin and Lu Li, the next generation is the real sixth generation.

Countless predecessors have come here in order to truly keep the No.1 title in the world in China, the hometown of Go.

If only I could see this day.

It can be regarded as death without regret.

Looking at the aging old Chen, Liu Mingchuan felt mixed feelings. This old man really contributed too much to the cause of Go in China.

"Don't worry, you will be able to see that day."

"I know my body myself, as Lu You said, never forget to tell Nai Weng about family sacrifices. That's fine.

Smiling Jiuquan is no worse than having no regrets, haha. "

Mr. Chen also seems to be very open-minded. He already has stomach cancer, and the older he gets, the worse his health becomes.

It is a blessing to be able to survive for another two or three years.

It is difficult to watch the sixth generation come out.

I'm afraid I can only wait down there with peace of mind like Mr. Ying.

But Mr. Chen believes that it has been the hard work of generations after so many years.

It will be done.

Mr. Chen seems to have thought of something at this time: "By the way, it seems that there is a person who is going to retire. After two years of retirement, Wei Xie will become the chairman of the Association. What do you think?"

"When you were here, you were the director of the Chess and Cards Sports Management Center, the president of the Chinese Chess Academy, and the chairman of the Chinese Go Association.

It has been disassembled a long time ago, and the people in each position are different.

He will come over when the time comes, just pretend it is. The Wei Association is essentially a non-governmental organization, and there is no profit in Go. Those who really want to make money will go to the football side. No one can come to squeeze money from us poor people. "

Liu Mingchuan didn't care when he heard this, he laughed and said a few words.

There is no need to worry about the poor game of Go, what can be squeezed out.

"Anyway, don't worry, you will definitely give him face when you come here. I begged grandpa to sue grandma for two or more games, and get him some results. He just needs to sit properly.

It's impossible to turn up any big disturbances, and it's impossible to break up with us, don't worry. "

Hearing Liu Mingchuan's words, Mr. Chen also nodded.

It's just a normal personnel transfer.

It is impossible for a retired old man to destroy the layout and achievements of his generations for decades.
