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

—Just as the young master of the Liu family said.

It has only been a few days since the women's champions were crowned at the amateur tournaments in Europe and North America, and Rui Zhao, after winning the Tongge Cup, officially expressed her hope for Go to be included in the Olympics in her post-match interview...

However, the energy it generated did not diminish over time; instead, it grew larger and larger like a snowball, unleashing a super storm that swept the world of chess and continued to spread to deeper levels of society!

Even more unexpectedly, this "wildfire" ignited by Rui Zhao himself seems to possess an astonishing ability to maintain and evolve itself!

The outstanding performances of the female chess players, like a relay race, have become a continuous source of fuel for this overwhelming popularity!

First of all... is the "Zhaomiao Cup" Summer Tournament held in China.

As if encouraged by Rui Zhao and amateur female chess players from Europe and America, those young female chess players who may have seemed a little naive in front of the camera in the past are showing increasingly impressive performances!

After three rounds of competition, the overall winning rate of female chess players was actually slightly higher than that of male players of the same age!
The next news comes from the Chinese Weiqi League!
Zhu Han, a rising star born in 2010 from the Guizhou team of the Chinese Weiqi League, defeated Wei Zhenzhong 7-dan with white in the highly anticipated opening match of the new season, achieving his first victory in the top professional league in China! He made a great contribution to securing a match point for his team!
It's no longer surprising to see female Go players becoming key members of the Chinese Weiqi League!
And then... today!
Japanese prodigy Uesaka Rei, 7-dan, fought her way through the fiercely competitive Nongshim Cup qualifying tournament in her home country and successfully broke through! She has officially been selected to represent Japan in the upcoming 29th Nongshim Cup Tri-Nation Go Tournament!

With this, female players from China, Japan, and South Korea have all been selected for the Nongshim Cup team!
This is not only a personal honor for Rei Uesaka, but also a collective declaration of an era!
Amid a series of trending events, the slogan "SHE'S NOT THE ONLY!" resonated globally! The immense popularity it generated quickly flowed to Go, an Eastern sport, where the powerful public will was manifested in the most obvious way.

Countless ordinary people signed petitions for it, numerous media reports fueled the movement, and there were even rumors that the International Olympic Committee had held two online meetings to discuss it within just a few days...

This is no longer just a grand event in the chess world, but has evolved into a massive socio-cultural movement sweeping the globe!

The amazing energy it has given to Go far exceeds that of the past, and it has begun to shake the Olympic door that was previously considered "impossible for intellectual sports"!

As the person at the heart of the incident, Rui Zhao continued to deliver an exceptionally brilliant performance!

After crushing Zhu Yuanjun and Li Zhaokai in the first two rounds of the Chinese Weiqi League, Dang Shi Zhaojun's winning streak in official matches has reached an astonishing sixty games!
Its prestige was so great that public opinion was beginning to consider it the pinnacle of Go history!
At this moment, outside the living room window, the city lights are brilliant. Although you can't hear the sounds outside the soundproof window, you can still feel the hustle and bustle of the metropolis.

In the apartment, the news report on K Go Channel continued, and although she wasn't mentioned today, it seemed like she was everywhere...

Liu Shixian sat quietly, his fingertips unconsciously tracing lines on his knees, his eyes filled with quiet tenderness.

As for this rival and confidant whom he genuinely admired, yet also felt a complex mix of emotions, the young master of the Liu family's thoughts drifted far away, ultimately culminating in a long, gentle whisper filled with understanding and composure:

"I thought we could hold on a little longer! But it looks like this..."

"She should be able to surpass Senior Choi and me this year!"

...

...

[“Does Empress Zhao need to accumulate sixteen crowns before she's even worthy of being discussed as the greatest of all time? Don't be ridiculous!”]

[Just now, another piece of news from China that will give conservatives a heart attack—Rui Zhao successfully defeated Kuai Liang in the final of the China Agon Cup, winning his ninth individual unrestricted tournament title this year! He also extended his rapid chess winning streak to 88 games!]

[It has to be said that with yet another championship secured, Rui Zhao's dominance is beyond words! It's truly unprecedented!]

Surprisingly, some people on the forum even said: "At this rate, Rui Zhao could become the greatest of all time within three years?"

【No! Dude?!】

Does Rui Zhao really have to win all 16 of Choi Myung-ho's world championships to qualify? Isn't that a bit too rigid a standard?

In my personal opinion, when comparing status, an athlete's peak dominance is far more important than the total number of career accolades! The highest mountain is always greater than the longest river!

[Think about basketball. Michael Jordan is widely considered the GOAT, but he only has six rings. How does that surpass Bill Russell's 11 championships?]

Isn't it because of his overwhelming and unparalleled dominance during his peak?

Let's take a look at Rui Zhao's achievements over the past six months: sweeping three gold medals at the Asian Games! Five consecutive world championship titles and a 27-game winning streak, and it's still going strong! She also achieved a remarkable 10-game winning streak in the Nongshim Cup, single-handedly defeating two countries!

Currently, she is only 12 games away from achieving a 100-game winning streak in rapid chess! She boasts a 64-game winning streak in official matches! She has only lost one game in six months, and her overall annual winning percentage is close to 99%...

This level of dominance in the world of chess is undeniably a one-of-a-kind achievement, a level of dominance that is absolutely unmatched in history! Personally, I believe it surpasses, if not better than, any of Jordan's three-peat titles!

[She's already this incredible, and you expect her to wait until she wins 16 titles before talking about the GOAT? That's just ridiculous!]

[Here's a bold prediction: if Zhao Tianhou remains undefeated in the remaining competitions this year and achieves a seven-peat in the World Championships while holding all of China's titles, then her GOAT status should be beyond dispute!]

Who's in favor, and who's opposed?

[#Go #MissGoddnessZhao #GOAT #DominanceOverwhelming #BestDebateInHistory] ——

[Hiss—if you put it that way, it does seem a bit absurd to wait until Rui Zhao has won sixteen titles before discussing who is the greatest of all time...]

The only remaining question is how many consecutive championships Rui Zhao needs to achieve to be comparable to Choi Myung-ho... but personally, I think the conditions the original poster mentioned are actually quite similar!

[The idea of ​​winning seven consecutive World Championship titles is utterly absurd! Not to mention, sweeping all of China's no-limit titles is unprecedented! And let's not even mention the chilling record of dozens of consecutive wins in official competitions!]

From any perspective, if Queen Soo truly achieved this, there's no reason not to consider her the GOAT!

Wait a minute, when the World's Strongest Go Player Tournament opened at the beginning of this year, didn't Rui Zhao get ridiculed and mocked by a bunch of right-wing media when he said his goal was to become the "best in history"?

[And now, only six months later, we're already discussing whether she's about to become the GOAT?!]

Wow, this is almost too surreal!

There's nothing we can do; who could have imagined that Rui Zhao would never lose a game after that!

I can hardly imagine how the editor-in-chief of Fox News has managed these past six months! It's truly heartbreaking!

Indeed, those conservatives have been beaten so badly they don't even dare to show their faces! I don't even know where to go to fight them!

[Perhaps the only way to bait people is by making some radical statements...]

[Come on! Rui Zhao has already done all of this before!]

[First, she stated that female chess players are no worse than male players, then she directly said her goal is to become the best in history... She keeps making controversial statements, clearly trying to lure out the rednecks (pro-government supporters) and then attack them!]

I think all the rednecks have PTSD; they wouldn't dare take the bait again!

[Recent polls also demonstrate just how powerful Queen Chao's global influence is!]

Since winning its first LIG Cup world championship last year, the Conservative Party's approval rating in the country has been declining steadily, and has now fallen below 25%!

Not only are the polls in seven swing states overwhelmingly blue, but even the conservative stronghold of Lone Star State is showing signs of turning blue!

It looks like the old golden retriever's dream of re-election next year is going to be shattered again!

"...I'll smash you to pieces!"

At 7 p.m. local time on July 27, in a meeting room of the White House, the residence of the President of the United States of America.

Seeing that the latest hot post from the forum, displayed on the big screen by the chief of staff, had hit a nerve, the energetic old man with his signature blond hair, who seemed to have a perpetual motion machine inside him, sitting at the head of the conference table, couldn't help but swear.

His cloudy yet aggressive eyes were fixed on the red dot forum's hot posts interface displayed on the big screen—densely filled with tags like "GO," "Weiqi," and "SHE'S NOT THE ONLY!" in various languages, and his facial expression twitched noticeably.

After letting out a curse, the blond old man leaned back abruptly in his high-backed chair, his chest heaving, and then continued to vent his dissatisfaction in his thick New York accent, almost like a roar:

"...Go...Go...Go...Go..."

"Why is Go everywhere lately?!"

His blond hair trembled as he shook his head, and spittle almost sprayed onto the microphone in front of him.

"It's clearly just a boring game of marking out territory with small stones! Why is it being discussed everywhere on the internet like it's under a spell?!"

"They can even incite those damn leftists and drive down our precious approval ratings..."

"What the hell is going on?!"

Despite the old man's rude, uncouth, and even comically hysterical reaction, the dozen or so well-dressed staff members sitting around the long table all wore expressions of habitual weariness and a barely perceptible numbness...

There's no way around it, the reason why everyone is speechless is quite simple...

The old man's full name is: Don De Tripp.

He is widely recognized as the most troublesome president in the history of the United States of America. (End of Chapter)
