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

"...Ah, don't be surprised! The leftists abroad have always been extreme.

"They dared to bring up many things before that had no factual logic or basis at all, not to mention Rui Zhao's current achievements are real!"

Seeing that Shang Chaotian was clearly full of complaints, Gou Shuci pressed his palm and signaled him to calm down:
“But the key to this matter is that although we all know that some of the views of foreign liberals are too radical, the trend of public opinion never cares whether you are radical or not, it only cares whether you can make a strong argument and whether it sounds reasonable.

“It can even be said that if you win an argument, the more radical your views are, the more crazy people will be attracted to you. This has been proven by many historical facts.”

Shang Chaotian thought about it for a moment and nodded to show his understanding. Gou Shuci also nodded in agreement and continued:
"Rui Zhao's rapid progress has given the left sufficient arguments and momentum. Ever since Rui Zhao defeated Lei Qi in the semi-finals of the Sanshuang Cup, the battlefield of public opinion on the Internet can be said to be a one-sided massacre!

"Because the Rui Zhao incident has caused such a big stir in the past six months, both sides have made a lot of efforts. At this point, the conservatives are already in a difficult situation and can only insist that Rui Zhao is an isolated case and is not representative..."

"But Rui Zhao is indeed an isolated case!"

Shang Chaotian couldn't help but interrupt:
"I've never seen a girl as crazy about Go as she is!"

“Chairman Shang, I said - facts are facts, but the people never care about the real facts, they only care about the facts they see.

"In the eyes of ordinary people abroad, they don't care whether Rui Zhao is really different from other female chess players.

"All they know is: a female chess player defeated all the men, which is highly consistent with the views of the left-wing media!
"The conservative media that had previously questioned her did not dare to refute the value of Rui Zhao's results. After being slapped in the face, they could only stubbornly say that she was an isolated case.

"Tell me, after seeing this, will the centrists have a tendency to lean to the left?"

"Uh……"

Shang Chaotian couldn't help but ponder, and it was obvious that he was thinking about something. Gou Shuci stopped beating around the bush and lowered his voice a little:

"It's hard for me to say more, I can only tell you: according to the feedback from the multiple 'eyes' we arranged outside: as the debate about Rui Zhao continues to heat up, the social thoughts in Europe and the United States have recently shown a clear overall tendency to turn to the left!

“Your so-called ‘niche project’ may stir up the world’s political situation!

"The world...political situation?"

Shang Chaotian felt a little numb after hearing this - even if he was given eight brains, he couldn't think of his own project in this direction!

However, before the chairman of the chess association could fully recover, Gou Shuci continued:
"Today's meeting is actually to formulate a comprehensive response strategy for this matter, and at the same time see how to use your mouthpiece to take this opportunity to exert our influence externally."

"Our mouthpiece?"

At this time, Shang Chaotian had already entered a state of having a hundred thousand questions, and was confused about what Gou Shuci said:
"We are not a propaganda outlet, so there is no such thing as a 'mouthpiece'!"

However, Director Gou raised his eyebrows and said to Shang Chaotian with a smile:

"Then look at who's sitting behind you?"

"…behind you?"

Shang Chaotian was startled when he heard this, and then quickly turned around to look:

“Hey, Xiao Ai?!

"Why are you here too?!"

...

...

"…Hello, everyone. I am your old friend Linda! I am now at Huaxia Dongjiang, preparing to bring you a unique interview.

"Huaxia Go player Rui Zhao, 9th dan, recently won the World Go Championship for the third consecutive time with an overwhelming advantage, becoming the first female best player to reach the top of the world in a competitive sports event!

"Her success not only triggered a global Go craze, but also inspired countless women!
"Today we are fortunate to interview Ms. Ai Jianan, Rui Zhao's agent, and hope to discuss Rui Zhao's growth trajectory, the breakthroughs in the dissemination of Go culture, and in-depth thinking around gender issues.

"Hello Miss Ai, thank you very much for taking the time to accept our interview!

"Hello Linda!"

"First of all, congratulations to Rui Zhao 9th Dan for his great achievement of winning the World Championship three times in a row!

"As we all know, winning three consecutive world championships in the Go world is undoubtedly a symbol of being the best in the world. With Rui Zhao winning the Sanshuang Cup yesterday, almost all people in the Go world regard her as the well-deserved 'best in the world'.

"As her agent who has accompanied her from being a professional chess player to the pinnacle of chess, what do you think is the core reason for her dominant performance?"

“If I say it’s ‘God pays for his hard work,’ it might sound a little old-fashioned. But it’s true.

“Xiao Zhao can be said to be the purest chess player I know.

"It has been almost four years since I met Xiao Zhao, and I have almost never seen her do anything for fun other than playing Go.

"In other words, Go is her profession, but also her only hobby and lifelong pursuit.

"In my opinion, this is the biggest reason why he was able to make continuous rapid progress and eventually win three consecutive world championships!"

"Really? But I can't help but ask a question:
"I learned from other people in the industry that Go is a field that relies heavily on talent. Is hard work alone enough?

“Does Rui Zhao’s great success indicate that, as the Olympic Council of Asia’s previous arbitration has shown…

"Are women actually more talented at Go than men?"

"Well, to be honest, neither Xiao Zhao nor I care much about this matter." Talent is something that is difficult to evaluate objectively. In reality, when we talk about talent, most of the time we work backwards based on the results.

"I don't mean to offend you. Just like when China was strong in ancient times, we regarded Europeans as barbarians and thought they looked weird. But as China fell behind in the world competition in modern times, various ideas of worshipping foreigners and fawning on foreigners soon spread.

"For a long time, the Chinese believed that Europeans and Americans were naturally superior to others, and even now this idea has not been completely eradicated.

"In the final analysis, whether talent exists or not, it is not subject to human will. The only thing that can bring out subjective initiative is the effort put into playing Go.

"And there is no doubt that Xiao Zhao has achieved perfection in this regard."

"Ah... is that so?

"Okay, let's move on to the next question.

"Recently, Rui Zhao's success has been seen as a symbol of women breaking through the competitive ceiling, but many media outlets believe that Rui Zhao is just an isolated case and has no representative value.

"As a woman, do you think that this statement, 'one case cannot be generalized', is extremely narrow-minded and disrespectful?"

"Ah, I actually don't have any opinion on this, and neither does Xiao Zhao.

"Contemporary Chinese people have always believed that 'practice is the only criterion for testing truth', and I believe this understanding also has roots in other parts of the world.

"The reason why the issue of gender talent in Go has been repeatedly debated on the Internet and in major media in the past six months is mainly because of Rui Zhao's appearance. But the reason why the arbitration of the Olympic Council of Asia is so controversial is also because it lacks supporting cases.

“Everyone has the freedom to express their own opinions, and the fact that many people have different voices is part of the social trend - I don’t want to comment on this.

"But... everyone has the right to influence public opinion through their actions.

"Personally, as a Go enthusiast and Xiao Zhao's agent, I think if women want to use Go to prove that they are not inferior in intellectual competition, it is better to actually devote themselves to the sport of Go, like Uesaka Rei and other players, to defeat the top male players of the same age in the same level of competition, and announce to the world that Xiao Zhao is not an isolated case.

“I have mentioned this repeatedly in my previous live broadcasts.

“When women are not given ‘special treatment’ and are forced to compete fairly with men for the same opportunities, their true competitiveness can be stimulated.

"The most typical example is China's college entrance examination - in high school, Chinese girls have almost no preferential treatment compared to boys. Their physical fitness is not as good as that of boys of the same age, and they have to endure more menstrual period troubles.

“But in reality, in the college entrance examination, women and men are evenly matched in all major indicators.

"That's why we are now encouraging women to step out of the hotbed - especially since Xiao Zhao's success has proven that women are fully capable of becoming top players in the game of Go.

"Whether it is the Zhao Miao Cup in China or the European and American Amateur Competition to be held in late June this year, we have not set up a women's group like many previous competitions, just to encourage women to compete with men under completely fair conditions.

“Only the competitive results achieved in this way can have real social impact – just like what happened to Xiao Zhao in the past six months.

"And it is gratifying that among the younger female chess players, more and more newcomers have begun to follow Rui Zhao's footsteps.

"For example, Yang Manjing from my country and Rei Uesaka from Japan have announced that they will no longer participate in women's individual competitions, and they are not inferior to male players of the same age.

"I believe that as more and more female players completely overcome social prejudice and demonstrate their due strength, Go tournaments designed specifically for women will gradually be cancelled. Female players will no longer be viewed through any tinted glasses."

“But… doesn’t this behavior in some sense reduce women’s welfare and harm women’s interests?

"Miss Ai, does your view conflict with the current mainstream feminist view?"

"Conflict? I think the so-called 'mainstream feminist view' has the cart before the horse.

"You know, feminism arose during the World War. At its inception, it was actually about demanding the same rights as men, believing that most of the things that men can do, women may not be unable to do at the same level.

“In my opinion, although discrimination against women still exists in society and the workplace, compared with previous history, this is the era in which women have the highest social status, bar none.

“The existence of discrimination is largely not due to the inherent arrogance of men, but because many women are unable to prove their own value, but still enjoy social preferential treatment and even privileges under the slogan of equal rights.

"In this context, women's focus should shift from 'fighting for equal rights' to 'proving that they are fully worthy of equal rights' rather than further demanding excessive privileges.

"Just like what Xiao Zhao did: She just wanted female chess players to be trained as potential newcomers who were no less than men, and she believed that the only way to prove this was to defeat all male chess players convincingly under completely fair and just conditions - this is why her deeds had such a big impact and were difficult for conservatives to refute.

“Although the additional privileges may seem beneficial to women as a whole, they are actually more likely to tempt women to degenerate into self-degradation and become addicted to social privileges. They also cause social conflicts and undermine the achievements of the feminist movement so far.

"So we believe that in competitive sports, the cancellation of any female category means a real and huge progress for women in this event!
"The most typical example is the skeet event in shooting. Before the gender division was introduced, women could beat men to win the Olympic gold medal. But after the division was introduced, women's performance began to lag behind top male athletes for a long time.

"So-called 'welfare' has actually caused women's overall level to regress. How can this not be a box of poisonous chocolates?"

"Ah... Miss Ai's point of view is indeed quite unique!

"Okay, thank you very much for accepting our interview! Thank you!"

"Thank you!"

……call……

At 3:31 p.m. on March st, in Dongjiang City, China, in the office building rented by Jianan Network Economy Company.

Seeing that the reporter from Time magazine had finished asking all the questions, Ai Jianan, who had rushed back to Beijing the night before to attend a meeting and then immediately arranged an interview this afternoon, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and sighed silently in his heart:

How come I, a small agent in Dongjiang, have become the country's external propaganda window? ! (End of this chapter)
