After all of us are reborn, who plays Go?

"Hahahahahahaha! I didn't expect that I came at such a coincidence, just when Zhan Lang won the championship again, and the runner-up is also here. The champion and runner-up are in the same frame, so this can be considered a celebration party.

I'll pay the bill tonight! Don't try to snatch it from me. If you go to the bathroom while I'm drinking, you can pay the bill. If someone doesn't know, they'll think I don't even have money for dinner!"

Wang Xinhao didn't know that the National Games was being held in Guangzhou before he came. Only after arriving tonight did he find out that the Go team's game had just ended.

But it was quite a coincidence that we had dinner right after the game, so we didn't have to worry about affecting the game.

There were no accidents in the afternoon competition. Zhan Lang easily won the victory and got the gold medal, and Fang Yuan won the silver medal as expected.

Just like everyone’s green color before the competition, it can be said that this is a very normal ranking in the competition in the past two years, and everyone even feels a little accustomed to it.

After all, Zhanlang has already performed so strongly internationally, so it is normal for it to have such dominance in China.

After all, apart from Zhan Lang, most people in China can't even cross the threshold of top-notch.

Although Fang Yuan shouldn't have been depressed in theory, he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh when he heard this.

The runner-up is already a very good ranking for others, but for Fang Yuan, it is indeed difficult to be satisfied.

After all, I used to be the champion, but now I only get the runner-up.

I am almost the perennial runner-up now.

"Come on, Boss Wang, try this Gu20."

Hearing Chen Long saying this name while pouring wine, Zhan Lang couldn't help but complain in his heart, you will be fined for using puns!

However, apart from myself, I guess no one here knows Gu Sheng.

"Okay, okay, that's enough, that's enough. If you pour any more, it will overflow! Don't waste it!
But there is no rush to drink. This time I came here mainly on behalf of others. I have a message to warn you in advance so that you can be mentally prepared in advance and not be caught off guard. "

Wang Xinhao looked at the glass filled with wine and quickly pushed the bottle aside.

Seeing Chen Long put down the bottle and raised the glass to toast him, Wang Xinhao, contrary to his usual behavior, said that he did not want to drink, and asked the other party to put down the glass and talk about business first.

Seeing Wang Xinhao's attitude, the people around him were a little surprised. After all, Wang Xinhao was one of the biggest sponsors of Chinese Go, and the people present were already very familiar with his temper.

Wang Xinhao, who was a sailor in his early years, is not a rough guy, but at least he is a bit rough in his style of doing things. He is very fond of wine. Every time he comes to eat, Wang Xinhao drinks until he is satisfied before talking about business.

Even everyone within the Chinese Go team knows one thing: as long as you can get Boss Wang Xinhao drunk, the sponsorship will definitely be secured.

If you can't drink it down, Boss Wang will be unhappy and the sponsorship will be in jeopardy.

Today, Boss Wang broke his usual habit and went without drinking any alcohol before talking about the matter. He also told everyone present to be mentally prepared.

Many people were shocked. Oh no! Could he be withdrawing his investment?

Now several large-scale competitions are sponsored by Boss Wang. If he withdraws his investment, it won’t be a big problem, but the number of competition opportunities will be reduced a lot.

Seeing the stunned expressions of the people around him, Wang Xinhao quickly waved his hands and said, "Why are you so surprised? I just want to let you know some inside information so that you can prepare in advance. It's not bad news, it's good news, a very good thing!

Of course, the most important thing is that I was commissioned by someone else. If it were just my own business, I wouldn’t care. I would definitely finish drinking first and then tell you.”

Seeing Wang Xinhao's rather formal look, Chen Long nodded quickly and said, "What's the matter? If there's anything you need our help with, we will definitely do our best."

"That's all good stuff, but I definitely need your help! I need your help to win the championship! And I must win it!"

Wang Xinhao looked at Chen Long with a formal expression and couldn't help but smile and said something jokingly.

"Win the championship?"

"Yes, win the world championship!" "World championship? We have already won two China-Japan competitions. We will definitely try our best in the third one. According to the current progress, we should have a 70% to 80% chance of winning, if not a 90% chance of winning."

Chen Long was a little confused when he heard this. After all, the only competition that can be called a world competition now is the China-Japan Go Tournament.

After all, the world's top players are in China and Japan, and the competition between players from the two countries already represents the highest level of Go in the world.

"Why is it only 70%?"

"No, no, I changed the subject. This is not a ring match, this is an individual competition!"

"Individual competition? Although we are going to host the Asian Games in 1990, it seems that the higher-ups have no plans to hold a Go competition at the Asian Games.

The Olympics... that's even more impossible. It's hard to get selected for a niche sport like Go. Other countries probably can't find players to participate..."

Chen Long couldn't help but shook his head when he heard this. Although it has been confirmed that the Asian Games will be held, there will be no Go event in this Asian Games.

As for the real world competition, the Olympics? Chen Long didn't even dare to think that a sport like Go could be on the Olympic stage!
Go has always been a niche sport and not a world-class sport.

Even chess, the world's top chess sport in Europe and the United States, cannot enter the Olympics, let alone Go.

"If the Olympics doesn't want Go, we can hold our own Go Olympics!"

"The Olympics of Go?"

"That's right. China holds its own competitions, and Japan holds its own competitions. Only people from their own countries can participate. If other countries want to participate, they must join their system.

Now is the era of globalization. If Go wants to further expand its influence in the world, it must have world-class competitions, world-class champions, and world-class figures!

Therefore, Go needs a world championship! A competition that can truly determine who is the best Go player in the world! "

Hearing this, all the Go players present couldn't help but breathe faster.

World Go Championship!

Compete for the position of the world's number one Go player!

Zhan Lang, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but narrow his eyes when he heard this. Sure enough, the big one was coming!

"You are planning to hold this world competition?!"

Chen Long felt that his heart could not bear such heavy news, so he quickly drank a glass of wine to calm his nerves.

"It's not me, it's someone else. Does Ying Changqi know?"

Hearing what Wang Xinhao said, everyone present nodded.

Those present here are basically the core forces of Chinese Go, so they naturally know much more inside information than other outsiders.

For example, everyone present knows who the real sponsor of the previous China-Japan Tianyuan Tournament was.

Although the sponsor of the China-Japan Tianyuan Title Tournament is nominally Wang Xinhao, and the rules used are niche, the Go community is so small that everyone knows who came up with it.

Since this rule is used, the real sponsor bosses behind the scenes actually all know it.

Ying Changqi, a famous entrepreneur from China's treasure island, is born in Ningbo.
