After all of us are reborn, who plays Go?

"Damn it! That bastard Zhan Lang is not going to win the championship again! He has so many championships, but he doesn't even share any of them with his brothers!"

"That's right, when Fang Yuan was the boss, he could at least show some meat. But Zhan never lets us eat any meat at all. That's too much!"

"I finally made it to the finals last time, but he shut me out. At least let me win a game so I can go home and brag about it."

"Tsk, playing chess with Zhan Lang in a competition is something you can brag about at home. My grandma is now a fan of Zhan Lang. It's outrageous, this popularity."

"If you can beat all the top Japanese teams once, you can also have such popularity, otherwise just shut up."

"It looks like this will probably be the case this year. We have no hope of winning the championship, so let's think about other places.

This time, Zhan Lang and Fang Yuan both made it to the finals. Is there any need to guess the result? How many years has Fang Yuan been defeated? I am too lazy to count. "

"Will he take all the championships this year like he did last year? He won't leave us any chance to survive."

"It's not the same in other sports. Basically, one or two people win all the championships. At least we have other competitions to get some benefits. In most sports, there are no competitions except for this national games.

Many members of the national team next door are not even eligible to participate in this kind of national competition. They can only train every day but have no competitions. It makes me feel so sad just thinking about it. "

"Last year, it wasn't a pre-game conflict, and Zhan Lang also missed a national games. I feel like I have to make up for it all this year."

"It seems like there won't be any schedule conflicts this year. Even Mr. Zhan may not be able to play early."

"We can't help it. The Japanese team doesn't seem to be very strong this year. They fought back and forth with us. They just made a strong statement before the game that they must win.

I suspect that if Zhan Lang didn't appear, we might be able to finish the game. If that were the case, it would be awesome!"

"Don't be so confident. There are top players behind the Japanese team. Besides Zhan Lang, who else in China can beat the top players in Japan? Fang Yuan can't beat them, so how can we count on them?"

"Maybe in a few years I can do it! By then I'll be a top-notch boxer and a top-notch kicker, and I'll be number one in China!"

"Stop bragging. You have nothing to do this afternoon, why don't you go watch other competitions? There seems to be a swimming competition next door?"

"Go together."

In the players' lounge at the 6th National Games in Guangzhou, players of the Chinese Go national team had a heated discussion about the National Games and the ongoing 3rd China-Japan Go Challenge Tournament.

However, no matter what you say, you cannot avoid mentioning Zhan Lang, the absolute protagonist of Chinese Go. Even at least one of the two sentences must contain the word Zhan Lang, otherwise you will probably go off topic.

At this time, Zhan Lang also pushed the door open from outside. Seeing Zhan Lang entering the room, many people subconsciously stood up and shouted respectfully.

"Zhan Lao."

Zhan Lang nodded somewhat awkwardly when he heard this, because many people in the room were about his age, and even the younger ones were only one or two years younger at most. As a result, they just called him "Mr. Zhan", which made Zhan Lang feel quite embarrassed.

After all, a few years ago, everyone was still saying, "You bastard, go to the cafeteria and save a seat for me."

Unconsciously, Zhan Lang felt that there was a sadly thick barrier separating him from his peers.

But there is no way. In Go, there is no such thing as the one who is more accomplished comes first. The one with strong ability is called the teacher. Sometimes the age gap between two generations of Go players is not that big.

For example, many of the later 005 tigers had learned Go from a legendary plane crash king. The age difference of about two years was normal, so it was normal to put them in the same class. But when they saw each other, they had to call him Mr. Ke.

Can you imagine your classmates respectfully calling you "Mr. X"?

Bah! I'm more like your father! Son, hurry down and bring food to your father! Do you want to starve your father to death? !
"Drink some water, Mr. Zhan."

"Mr. Zhan, I have some snacks here."

"Your snacks are unhealthy. Mr. Zhan, try this hemp flower, a specialty of my hometown!"

"Zhan Lang, why don't you see Fang Yuan? Isn't he coming over to rest?"

After Zhan Lang came in, he became the only protagonist. There was no other way. Now Zhan Lang alone has raised the reputation of Chinese Go. He is the golden signboard of Chinese Go. Now everyone thinks of Chinese Go when they hear Zhan Lang. Zhan Lang's reputation is even greater than the sum of Chinese Go without Zhan Lang.

When talking about Chinese Go, any Chinese person’s first reaction would be Zhan Lang!

With such a level, how could the Chinese Go national team not promote Zhan Lang? After all, everyone is now making money by relying on Zhan Lang's reputation as the God of Wealth.

Because Chinese Go, as a sport, not only adopts the normal form of sports games, but also imitates Japanese Go in holding competitions in the form of sponsorship. Compared with many domestic sports, there are many Go competitions.

Later, in order to further develop, a league model similar to football was introduced, and a large number of world champions were cultivated.

Other normal sports are not as comfortable as Go. After all, the national team members of some sports may not even have one or two games a year in some domestic sports games, let alone international competitions.

It is even possible that he has only played a few games in his entire professional sports career, but left the field sadly due to injuries from training, and no one will even remember his name.

But there is nothing that can be done about it, because in most sports it is a winner-takes-all situation, there is only one gold medal and champion, and all we can see is the person who can get it, or in other words, whoever can get it is the one that everyone can see.

Everyone knows Liu Feiren, but who knows how many athletes from the national team in a certain event are behind him, training day and night but are not even qualified to play.

But you really have no right to complain because you just can't outrun others.

The same is true for the national Go team, but because of some other competitions, everyone has more opportunities to compete and some are qualified to have a share of the spoils.

One of the big reasons why Go can attract sponsorship now is the fame of Zhanlang. In fact, many people are not willing to spend so much money on Chinese Go, but on Zhanlang.

Although this Mr. Zhan cannot bring such a large amount of traffic and sponsorship like the other Mr. Zhan without taking a penny, and even takes the biggest cut, at least everyone who follows behind will get some soup to drink.

For many people, this is enough.

“You know how to enjoy yourself.”

After Chen Long came in, he saw Zhan Lang being treated like a celebrity, being fed snacks and water, and even having a massage. He couldn't help but laugh and complain.

Looking at the postures of these men, if they were not restricted by physiological differences, one or two of them would have pounced on her long ago.

"Mr. Chen."

"Dean Chen."

"Teacher Chen."

When they saw Chen Long coming in, everyone greeted him. After all, he was the direct leader of the national Go team and even the teacher of many people present.

"After the game in the afternoon, someone will treat you to dinner in the evening."

"Are you calling me to accompany the guests again?"

Zhan Lang couldn't help but shook his head when he heard this. As a big star in the Go world, Zhan Lang has been working as a hostess since he came back from the second challenge tournament.

They accompany him to eat, drink and chat, and many bosses even introduce their relatives to blind dates and want Zhan Lang to provide further sleeping services.

But those bosses are spending real money to sponsor the competition, and they specifically mentioned you. You can't just not have a meal with them.

For the sake of Chinese Go, Zhan Lang doesn't mind sacrificing his looks if the opponent is really beautiful.

"Tonight is Boss Wang. We haven't seen each other for a long time. He finally came over, so you must accompany him well.

And this guy is so mysterious, saying he has some good news."

"Good news?" (End of this chapter)
