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

Two days passed in a flash.

Time quickly came to April 4, the day of the Tianyuan Tournament Challenger Finals.

At 4:50 p.m. that day, in the live broadcast room of [Go Xiaozhao] at the Tongli Town Cultural and Sports Center.

As Sun Yi in the live broadcast shook his head to stop the clock, Hua Ran, who had already prepared his victory speech, immediately announced the good news to all the fans watching the game!

"...Ah! We can see that Sun Yi, the ninth dan, has resigned!
"Then let us congratulate Sister Rui Zhao for defeating Sun Yi, 9th Dan, and successfully becoming the challenger for this year's [Tian Yuan] title!
"Now, please help me summarize this game, Man Jing!"

“Uh… okay!
"I have to say, Rui Zhao, the current number one, is truly the real deal!"

Although she is more inclined to support the team's main player between Sun Rui and the other player, after watching today's game, Miss Witch still feels complicated.

This is not to say that Rui Zhao did not perform well in the middle, but precisely because...

Rui Zhao's performance was really too good! So good that even she, a proud and arrogant fan who always wanted to catch up with him, was a little nervous...

"…Actually, today's game is quite similar to the previous game in the semi-finals of the Weiqi League playoffs.

"Faced with Brother Sun, who is one of the top three players in the country and is recognized as a 'super-class wall', Rui Zhao still had no intention of showing his Dragon Slaying Sword after the start of the game, and just went down step by step.

"On the contrary, Brother Sun obviously didn't have the same patience as in the first 100 moves of the last fight, and his moves were relatively aggressive.

"The most typical examples are the 25th move, the 33rd move, and the point move, which are both moves that require a bit of effort.

"Of course, it's also possible that because he guessed that it was black, and knowing that Rui Zhao had no weaknesses in internal strength, he had to play more aggressively because he guessed that it was black according to the Chinese rules.

“But… being more aggressive means more loopholes will appear.

"In fact, Brother Sun didn't make any obvious mistakes in this game. I feel that the overall level is no different from the game we played last time. But the problem is...

"Rui Zhao's chess moves are already significantly better than her senior brother's!

"Although neither side made any obvious mistakes in this game, Rui Zhao seized every small flaw of Brother Sun and gradually widened the gap with the advantage of the quality of his moves, directly crushing his own brother!

"Let's take the 25th and 33rd moves as examples. Rui Zhao responded very calmly to these tough measures, and the AI ​​performed best in all the local moves. However, after the two moves, things didn't go right for Brother Sun!

"In the subsequent battle on the right, Brother Sun, eager to make up for his disadvantage, played more aggressively, hoping to achieve a breakthrough by entangled the two isolated white pieces.

“Unfortunately, in front of the world’s number one in this state, the more aggressive you are, the faster you will die.

"Rui Zhao firmly grasped every flaw of the black chess and steadily expanded his advantage. In just 52 moves, he defeated Brother Sun!
"To be honest, Brother Sun is the recognized leader after all. I had almost no chance against him yesterday!

"In the end, the game ended after 52 moves. This is too cruel...

"The final 63rd move from the inside was Sun's winning move, trying to forcefully capture two white pieces and pull out the tortoise shell in the middle to reverse the situation.

"But Rui Zhao is very smart here, local response is the best option!

"At the 70th move, the upper right corner was cleared, and the overall situation was simple and advantageous for White. The next 2.2 moves were all Brother Sun's mood before he admitted defeat. The winning rate slowly dropped from 0.1% to % in a very smooth curve.

“I have to say, Rui Zhao’s chess play is a little unreasonable now!
“No matter how good your condition is or whether you make mistakes or not, I will just crush you!

"It's really amazing that Little Glasses was able to beat this monster in a game half a year ago..."

“Ah…Man Jing, you better not call your teammates monsters in front of everyone!
"Although I know you are praising Sister Rui Zhao..."

Hua Ran was embarrassed as she tried to smooth things over for the little witch. However, she glanced at Sun Yi, who looked a little embarrassed in the live broadcast, and she couldn't refute Yang Manjing's words too much, so she quickly changed the subject.
"Then, tomorrow, Sister Rui Zhao will move to Tianyi Pavilion and challenge the incumbent Tianyuan Leiqi 9th Dan in a three-game match!
"I wonder what Man Jing's outlook is on the upcoming three-game match?"

"Prospects...?"

Although Assistant Hua had already asked the question, Queen Mulan still stared at the chess game that had just ended, as if she was thinking about something. It was not until Hua Ran reminded her again that Yang Manjing sighed again and said:
"That……

"Can you say something violent?"

"Violent, violent theory?!"

Hua Ran's expression was a little surprised at first, but then he quickly became embarrassed from the bottom of his heart...

Because from the looks of it, it seems like the little witch might really say something shocking!
But since the guest commentator asked so, she naturally couldn't stop him - as the live host, she naturally couldn't go against the program effect.

"Uh……

"As long as it comes from the heart and is not meant to attract attention, that's fine!"

In the end, Hua Ran adopted a slightly compromising statement, trying to hint to Queen Mulan to be more restrained.

"Well, I'll tell you then!"

Miss Witch said very honestly:
"In fact, the victory or defeat between Rui Zhao and Lei Qi was greatly affected by guessing the first move under the Chinese rules.

"If Rui Zhao plays black, the chance of winning is 50-50 to 40-50!"

After hearing this, Hua Ran, who had been a little worried that the little witch would say something shocking, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

What? You scared me!
Isn’t this winning rate the same as the average black and white winning rate in the Weiqi League?

"Well, it seems that Man Jing thinks that the overall strength of the two sides is quite close!"

Hua Ran chose his words carefully, but as soon as he said this, he was immediately refuted by Queen Mulan:
"...Get close? Sister Ranran, did you make a mistake?
"I mean Rui Zhao 55, Lei Qi 45!"...Huh? !
After hearing this, Hua Ran finally realized that something was wrong.

Even if Rui Zhaojie plays black, her winning rate is still upper hand?
It seems that the little witch is really optimistic about Sister Rui Zhao!

"So, Man Jing, what you mean is...

"What if Lei Qi only has a 20% to 30% chance of winning when playing as black?"

"Two or three percent winning rate?"

The little witch raised her eyebrows, obviously having some objections to this statement.

But after thinking about it, she finally did not strongly refute, but said:

"Well... in a sense, that's true!

"Two or three percent out of a hundred percent."

...

...

"...Only a 20% to 30% winning rate out of a hundred?!
"How dare you, little witch!"

At the same time, in a high-end hotel suite in Dajing City.

After listening to Yang Manjing's shocking and outrageous remarks in the [Go Xiaozhao] live broadcast room, Wang Chenshu, who was watching the game with her fiancé, couldn't help but question:
"If Lei Qi plays with white, the odds are roughly even, but if he plays with black, it's almost impossible to win...

“This is really outrageous!”

But Ji Qiujuan did not completely agree with his fiancée's feelings.

"…Really? Actually, I think Xiao Yang is very insightful!

"If you ask me to make a judgment, I think I am pretty much the same as her! If you must say there is a difference...

"Maybe I just won't say it directly in front of so many people!"

"Eh?"

This time Wang Chenshu was even more surprised and couldn't help but continue to ask:
“Although I also know that the white player has an advantage under Chinese rules, the gap shouldn’t be that big, right?!
"Otherwise, wouldn't playing Go just become a game of guessing what comes first?!"

"Normally speaking, it's not that big - this can be basically confirmed by looking at the average winning rate of the Weiqi League."

The captain of the Gezhou team answered truthfully:
"but……

"Rui Zhao and Lei Qi's skills are really ridiculous now!"

"It's really... a bit absurdly high?"

Wang Chenshu blinked, as if thinking about something, while Xiao Ji smiled and explained for his fiancée:
“…That’s it!

"It is well known that the higher the level of the two players, the greater the impact of the extra move of Black in Chinese rules on the outcome.

"Because the disadvantaged party has to play more aggressively, it is easier for the opponent to take advantage of it.

"And the higher the level, the less likely it is to make mistakes in the process - for example, if the same AI plays slow chess with its left and right hands, the black player has almost no chance of winning under the Chinese rules.

"This is also true for today's game where Rui Zhao played with white pieces.

"Normally speaking, Sun Yi would not be defeated in just over fifty moves if he plays normally. But now Sun Yi already knows that Rui Zhaolian's internal strength is stronger than his. Combined with his extremely strong chess stability, if he plays according to the routine, he will almost die slowly!
“So Sun Yi had to use desperate moves early on, but Rui Zhao easily caught his flaws, and then it became a vicious cycle.

"And if it's placed between Lei Qi and Rui Zhao, it's even more obvious!
"Like the last time they played against each other in the Sanshuang Cup, the actual point difference between the two sides in the first half of the game was basically about half a point!
"If this is changed to Chinese rules, Lei Qi, who plays with white, will be in the lead the whole time! This will naturally put a lot of pressure on Rui Zhao!"

"I understand."

Wang Chenshu nodded, but frowned slightly and said:
“But…is Rui Zhao already this strong now?
"In the Sanshuang Cup half a month ago, the two sides fought for most of the game, but now Rui Zhao is playing with white...

"You can be almost undefeated?"

"That's not surprising!"

Ji Qiujuan still had a smile on her face:

"On the one hand, the first half of the game was purely a competition of internal strength, and the gap between the two in attack and straight-line calculations did not become apparent until the very end.

"In my opinion, Rui Zhao was already the undisputed number one during the Sanshuang Cup!

"On the other hand..."

Ji Qiujuan paused and said with emotion:

"…It's amazing that she has reached the pinnacle and still doesn't slack off!

“As she herself said:
"When it comes to hard work, she is definitely not inferior to anyone!" (End of this chapter)
