After all of us are reborn, who plays Go?

October 26, 1984, in the VIP reception room of the Capital Stadium.

The second game of the China-Japan Go Challenge will be officially held here. Kashima Torajiro and Fang Yuan, the players from both sides, have already taken their seats.

Perhaps because he won the first game, Torajiro Kashima looked a little relaxed. He was still wearing a kimono and playing with the fan in his hand.

Japan has actually completed its mission. If they win today's game, they will have exceeded their mission. If they don't win, Japan doesn't care.

After all, in their opinion, Torajiro Kashima is a new star brought in as a bonus this time, and his main purpose is to train newcomers.

After all, the opponent in the second game is Fang Yuan, the former number one player in China, so the Japanese side naturally does not put much pressure on Kashima Torajiro.

On the contrary, Fang Yuan stood up straight and tensed his whole body, looking extremely formal.

Compared to Torajiro Kashima, today's game is a game in which Fang Yuan can only succeed and cannot fail.

In order to defeat the tiger today, Fang Yuan has been studying carefully all the opponent's games he could collect during this period. Now that the game of Wu Song fighting the tiger is imminent, Fang Yuan's nerves are naturally kept taut.

"Today's battle is still very suspenseful."

As a semi-retired person, Fujii Hideaki's main role this time was to provide companionship. It didn't matter whether he played in all the games or not, but he was basically there.

Compared to the absence of other top-notch players of the Japanese team, Fujii Hideaki was just a mixed bag of players.

I don't even have to play, and I will get a portion of the prize money when the time comes. I have to do my best to save face. Anyway, the round-trip airfare is not my money, and the chess academy will reimburse me.
Because the Chinese player who played today was the former number one Chinese player Fang Yuan, Fujii Hideaki naturally was not so happy about Kashima Torajiro.

After all, Fang Yuan and his team have had more contact with each other. In the past few years, they have been the main force for China to fight against Japan. They were previously directly evaluated as one of the strongest ninth-dan players under the super first-class level.

It is not easy for Torajiro Kashima to defeat his opponent, but it is not impossible.

Fortunately, Fangyuan suffered such a big setback in Japan some time ago and seemed to have been in a slump for a long time.

Fujii Hideaki now hopes that Fang Yuan has not come out of this depressed state.

However, as for the result of the game, winning is naturally a good thing, and losing is no big deal.

When Zhan Lang heard what Fujii Hideaki said, he immediately became unhappy. How could you say something so irresponsible as "there's a lot of suspense"?
"Fang Yuan will definitely win."

Hearing Zhan Lang's decisive words, Fujii Hideaki was also aroused: "Boy, don't underestimate Torajiro, he is making rapid progress now.

Even against Fang Yuan, he has more than 60% confidence! Even if it's you, there's no way you can take him down 100% of the time."

"Only 60%? It can't be 100% sure, right? They can't even say they are 100% sure. It seems that the Japanese team has no confidence.

In this case, it would be better to just admit defeat in advance and arrange the next game directly. "

Fujii Hideaki was so angry when he heard this that he blew his beard and glared: "Who said there is no chance? Kashima Torajiro will definitely win today!"

Anyway, I'm not betting with you. Who doesn't know how to brag?

Just one hundred percent!

Don’t even mention 100 percent, even Sampasanto will do!

I'll just put my harsh words here!

Looking at Fujii Hideaki who said this, Zhan Lang suddenly felt reassured. He immediately kept silent and just fanned the fan in his hand.

This is sure.

Looking at Zhan Lang who immediately showed a satisfied expression after hearing his words, Fujii Hideaki immediately realized what was going on.

"Bakayalu! You really think I'm a jinx!"

"You kid! You were saying the same thing last time! It made Sakamoto look at me in a weird way! Don't ruin my reputation!"

"I didn't say that! Fujii Hideaki 9th Dan, don't think so, and don't try to be utilitarian. It will only make the situation worse."

Hearing Zhan Lang's words, Fujii Hideaki was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.

He originally wanted to criticize Fang Yuan, but now his words were blocked.

No, how come I believe that I am a jinx?!
Chen Long next to you can only comfort his old friend. If you really make him so angry that he complains here, then it will be a big deal.

"The second round of the China-Japan Go Tournament has officially begun."

In the first game, the Chinese side plays black first, and then in the second game, the Chinese side plays white last.

Torajiro Kashima has always been known for his bellicosity, but what was surprising today was that Torajiro Kashima played first with black pieces, but in the fifth move, instead of attacking, he chose to defend steadily at the Wuyou Corner.

The Chinese team members who were finally able to watch the game live this time couldn't help but frown when they saw this move.

After all, this still does not match the tactics of Kashima Torajiro that they had anticipated.

At this time, Fujii Hideaki was fanning himself in the game room. This was also the combat method he had thought of.

Fang Yuan has a strong ability to control the game at the beginning and in the middle of the game. If Kashima Torajiro continues to rush forward when he is not as strong as his opponent, it will be easy for the opponent to seize his weaknesses and control the rhythm.

In this way, once the rhythm of the mid-game enters Fangyuan's pace, it will be very difficult for Kashima Torajiro to win.

In this case, it is better to implement the strategy of steady and steady operation. As long as Fang Yuan's condition has not recovered, when he shows signs of fatigue in the middle of the game, Kashima Torajiro will open his tiger's mouth and take a big bite, and there will be a chance to win this game.

But Fang Yuan looked at Kashima Torajiro who was defending himself and took the lead in launching an attack.

The fourteenth move, White chess, three high spaces.

Seeing this, Torajiro Kashima was stunned.

Because this was the routine I used when I was trying to trick Li Yiran in the first game.

But Kashima Torajiro also knew that this was just a trick to deceive people, and it was not a good idea in essence.

As for tricks, they can only fool people once, and Torajiro Kashima has no intention of fooling people a second time, even if the person is different.

So after the first game, Torajiro Kashima had long forgotten about the three-room high trap and let it gather dust in the basement of his mind.

But he never expected that he would see this move in his opponent's second round? And it was used against him?!

What does it mean?
Aren't you bullying honest people? !
Torajiro Kashima became anxious when he saw Fang Yuan using the same method he used to cheat others against him.

Using the same method I use to deceive others to deceive me, even if it is not harmful, it is still too insulting, right?!
I'm still playing with you like this?!

Torajiro Kashima really didn't expect this trick. Although he had studied it before, he didn't remember much now, or it could be said that he didn't study it in depth.

And most importantly, Torajiro Kashima was not sure whether Fang Yuan had discovered any other tricks that he had not figured out.

Looking at Kashima Torajiro's varied facial expressions, Fang Yuan couldn't help but grin.

As expected, the other party didn’t expect it either?
Zhan Lang's move worked.

"Did Fang Yuan come up with this wicked trick?"

Looking at the chess records transmitted in real time, Fujii Hideaki also felt a little painful.

The Chinese team also played a trick this time, hiding the truth from the public and bringing disaster upon themselves.

I hope that Torajiro Kashima has not forgotten his previous research results, and that China has not come up with any new tricks.

After hesitating for a while, Torajiro Kashima made a decisive move.

Isn't it my move? Why should I be afraid? !

I won't lose!

Fang Yuan, playing with white, won by three-quarters of a point against Kashima Torajiro, and the score of the China-Japan Go Challenge was one to one.

Looking at the winning game, Fang Yuan couldn't help but wipe the sweat off his face.

After making many mistakes in this game, he gave Kashima Torajiro a chance to catch his breath at the last moment, but the opponent was still in shock during the countdown and made another fatal move.

After the last in and out, Fang Yuan took the victory at the last moment. Although Kashima Torajiro fought hard in the final stage, it didn't have much effect and instead widened the gap.

Seeing Fang Yuan winning the second game, Fujii Hideaki came to the game room and first congratulated Fang Yuan, and then comforted Kashima Torajiro who lost today.

After all, in Fujii Hideaki's view, Fang Yuan's victory today was expected, and the Japanese team never thought that one person could defeat all the Chinese team members.

The score was one to one. After the start, China and Japan returned to the starting line, but most people's belief that Japan would win remained unshakable.

After the game, Fujii Hideaki, who was interviewed by Chinese and Japanese media, bluntly stated that Japan would definitely win the next game.

On December 21, 1984, in the third match between China and Japan, Fang Yuan defeated Kobayashi, 8th Dan, in the middle game.

Fujii Hideaki: "2 to 1, a little surprising, but within normal range, we will definitely win the third game."

On December 22, 1984, in Tokyo, in the fourth match of the China-Japan tournament, Fang Yuan won in the middle game.

Fujii Hideaki: "The quality of the fourth game was not high. The Chinese players were very strong, but such a victory can only be temporary."

On February 6, 1985, in Shanghai, Fang Yuan won in the middle game.

Fujii Hideaki: "Although the situation is not optimistic, it is not yet irreversible. If we can win the next game, the Japanese team still has a clear advantage."

On March 10, 1985, at the Japan Shogi Association in Tokyo, Fang Yuan defeated Shotaro Ishida, 9th dan, in the middle game.

At this point, the Japanese team only has three top-notch players left.

Seeing Fang Yuan winning five games in a row, Fujii Hideaki was stunned...

What the hell? Could it be that I really have a bad mouth?!

PS: Tomorrow, the LG Cup singer will meet the bully again. These two people are really doomed. The bully should not fall into trouble again...

Bully is considered a Korean Go war criminal this year... He lost several key games. As a foreign player, I guess he won't be signed next year...
