Go: The live broadcast queen launched a gorgeous rebellion against the dog

Chapter 1016: Third Round of Playoffs
Time flies and half a month has passed.

It is now the last day of February 2027. The atmosphere of the New Year has long dissipated, and people are gradually getting rid of their laziness at the beginning of the year and slowly returning to work.

However, returning to work is like returning to work. If the pressure on you continues to increase and you are assigned more work, it is inevitable that some office workers will roll their eyes.

For example, Lu Wenjie, who recently had to contact many matters about the Weiqi League playoffs while preparing for the European and American amateur competitions with Jianan Network Entertainment Agency Co., Ltd....

"…What? Entering the Olympics?!

“We are also going to expand the scope of amateur competitions to Southeast Asia and Australia?!”

After hearing Shang Chaotian's words, Vice Chairman Lu, who had just been called to the office by his own boss, couldn't help but twitch his expression slightly:
"Uh wait...

"Didn't Xiao An just say that he was going to hold amateur competitions in North America and Europe? How come there is a new plan?!
"And it's such an ambitious plan!"

“That’s not contradictory!

"One is a phased approach, and the other is the main goal. It's nothing more than making plans in advance to connect them together!"

Shang Chaotian had a helpless smile on his face, trying to comfort his deputy who had been working very hard recently.
“And…I’ve thought about it carefully, and it’s true!
"If we want to promote Go into the Olympics, the most practical solution is to take advantage of Rui Zhao's unprecedented influence on international public opinion.

"According to past practice, it usually takes four or five years in advance for an event to be included in the Olympics, and seven to eight years to be listed as a permanent major event!

"We can't count on the 28 Los Angeles Olympics, but if Ruizhao can continue to increase its influence recently and we can take advantage of this opportunity to truly root the amateur competition system around the world, then the 32nd Australian Brisbane Olympics... is not to say that there is no chance at all! And then we can strive to enter the Olympics for a long time!
"So, the past year has been very critical! It's understandable why Xiao Ai and the others acted so quickly!"

"Hmm... that does make sense!"

Hearing this, Lu Wenjie nodded slightly:
"However, if we want to further expand our influence, we will definitely need a new explosive point as an opportunity to facilitate us to formally propose the inclusion of Go in the Olympics to the International Olympic Committee.

"At the same time, in terms of international public opinion, Rui Zhao has a lot of supporters and opponents. Before this, we must completely suppress the opponents in public opinion...

"And if we want to achieve this, Rui Zhao's performance will definitely need to make a bigger breakthrough! And if her performance continues to break through, then..."

"...Then she is basically the undisputed number one in the world!"

Shang Chaotian sighed lightly and said with a somewhat helpless look on his face.

"……Um."

Lu Wenjie also nodded and continued:
"Recently, judging from the monitoring of public opinion, ever since Rui Zhao set a record of winning ten consecutive games and clearing the table in the Nongshim Cup, the topic of who is the best player in the world has become increasingly popular both at home and abroad!

"Although some people think that a short half-year slump cannot be regarded as a historical chess player like Liu Shixian giving up the throne. But unfortunately, he has lost too many games to Rui Zhao recently. Whenever someone mentions Liu Shixian, he will be repeatedly ridiculed by Rui Zhao fans. So...

"The debate about who is the best is basically centered around Lei Qi and Rui Zhao, the two 'post-05s'.

"Although Rui Zhao looks like the best player in recent tournaments, she lost three games against Lei Qi in standard slow chess matches. She also won the LIG Cup with her accumulated arsenal of flying knives. It's hard to say that she is definitely better than Lei Qi!

"Now both sides have their own reasons, and they are all waiting for them to face off again in the slow chess arena to truly determine who is the winner!"

"Hmm...Looking at it this way, when the results of the San Shuang Cup come out, it feels like public opinion around the world will be in turmoil again!"

Shang Chaotian smiled bitterly again. But Lu Wenjie reminded him at the right time:
"Hey brother, don't forget!

"Before that, the two will most likely face off in the Weiqi League playoffs!"

"Hmm... maybe not. The semi-finals haven't even started yet!"

Shang Chaotian, who was always calm, did not say anything final about this matter: "Although the guys in Tiangang are all old, the only real strong point in Dajing is Lei Qi. Although Lin Ruixin is no longer as strong as he used to be, he has not fallen off a cliff as quickly as the outside world speculated. It is hard to say whether Dajing can be taken down...

"As for Pengze, let alone Xiao Chu, his team's performance has also improved by leaps and bounds in the past year or so since he was promoted to 9th dan. In terms of team configuration, it is entirely possible for the underdog to succeed!
"Rui Zhao and the others can't be careless!"

"Uh...Brother Tian..."

Lu Wenjie took out his cell phone, glanced at the second leg of the second round of the playoffs that was coming to an end, and then lowered his voice and said:
"Let's not talk about Tiangang for now...

"But judging from the current situation, Team Pengze is about to be eliminated by Team Suhu?"

"Eh?!"

...

...

"...Okay, okay, little glasses!
"You've tried your best, it's not your fault! So stop being a whiny freak!

"By the way, where is there a 1.8-meter-tall crying monster?!"

At 3:2 p.m. on March , in Jinling City, Suzhou Province, China, in a taxi heading to Xuanwu International Hotel.

Seeing that two days had passed and her comrade's boyfriend still had a bitter face, Yang Manjing, who was on her way to the venue of the first leg of the third round of the Weiqi League, couldn't help but say a few more words of comfort.

"Well... I, I didn't cry either...

"I'm just in a normal mood..."

Seeing that his girlfriend had labeled him a "whiny guy", Chu Jun expressed a small protest, and then went into aggrieved mode again:
"We agreed to meet in the semi-finals, but we failed at the last minute...

"Not only that, but it also let that Nie Yunyi steal the spotlight... woo..."

Yes - until now, Xiao Chu Jiudan is still depressed about his team's loss to Su Hu and his failure to meet his girlfriend in the semi-finals of the Weiqi League.

In this year's Weiqi League playoffs, the Pengze team, which ranked third in the regular season, does not need to participate in the first round. In the second round, they will face the Suhu team led by Sun Yi, which just eliminated Xidu in the first round.

In terms of overall strength, the Pengze team with the "9998" configuration naturally has a clear advantage. In the first round of away games, the Pengze team won three games smoothly!

Including Xiao Chu Jiudan, who taught a lesson to a certain conspicuous person on behalf of his girlfriend after a rather tense battle. Only Fang Zhaoxiang was stamped with a "quality inspection failed" by the strength identification device.

But just when Chu Jun was happily imagining meeting his girlfriend in the semi-finals, the situation in the second round suddenly changed!

Facing Sun Yi, who is among the top three in China and has a strong ability to suppress his opponent, the Pengze team, fearing that they would be defeated by the opponent 4-4, directly played the "traditional art" of horse racing and put Fang Zhaoxiang, who is relatively the weakest, on the main stage! Thinking that as long as the horse race goes smoothly, except for Sun Yi, who is obviously strong, the opponent will never be able to take down two of the other three stages!
But who would have thought...the Su Hu team predicted the Peng Ze team's prediction!
The Su Hu team, who were fighting a desperate battle, also went all out! They were sure that the Peng Ze team, who faced Lei Ruisun, the top three domestic horses in the regular season, would definitely learn from Tian Ji again, so they also put Xiao Nie on the main stage!
Now it was going to be a lively scene! The entire second round of the game was a mess!

As a result, after the other three battles, Sun Yi defeated Tang Guansheng, and Uncle Tuo also defeated Long Bo in the battle between the elderly!

Even though Chu Jun successfully defeated Ying Yalou, 8th Dan, and took the lead in getting the team's fourth victory in this round, the final victory or defeat of the two teams still depended on the crucial main general podium.

In this crucial battle, facing Fang Zhaoxiang, the 8th Dan, Nie Yunyi, who had already shown excellent form in the first three games of the playoffs, exploded!

He beat his opponent with black and won the most crucial victory for the visiting team, eliminating the Pengze team, which was strong this season! It also ruined Chu Jun's plan to spend two more days in Pengze with his girlfriend.

However… although Chu Jun was full of apologies for sending Yang Manjing back to Jinling, and even followed her here to serve as Queen Mulan's sparring partner, the little witch herself did not care about this matter:
What should you do if your man is bullied?
Isn't it time for the other half of the family to get back at the table?
