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

"...Director Gou, what's the current situation of this game?"

"Why am I not understanding this at all?!"

Ten minutes later, outside the VIP viewing room of the Jiangdong Ritz-Carlton Hotel.

Upon hearing the inquiry from Director Lü on the other end of the phone, Gou Shuci, who was on the front lines representing the Chinese government in organizing and coordinating, looked rather embarrassed—because after only 42 moves, Rui Zhao's AI win rate with black was already a mere 0.2%! It was fair to say that he had played terribly!
Such a terrible performance stunned the world! Not only was there a wave of ridicule on various social media platforms abroad, but even the domestic Yiguo forum crashed!

In this situation, it's perfectly normal for Director Lü, as the leader's secretary, to rush over and inquire about the situation.

"...Director Gou, you need to understand: the leadership was originally scheduled to hold a small internal meeting this afternoon, but the schedule has been changed."

"Although I don't know exactly what the leader went to do, and he didn't say, I'm worried that he might suddenly call and ask me about Rui Zhao's situation. I need to be prepared!"

Although Director Lü did not say it explicitly, Gou Shuci understood the meaning perfectly well.

However, Gou Shuci also knew that while he could provide assistance to a formidable opponent like AI, making too much of a fuss and letting an outsider direct an expert would certainly not be a good thing.

So after seeing that Rui Zhao's moves in the first game today were very strange, he only asked Shang Chaotian to ask Ai Jian'an for details about what was going on, and did not react too strongly—even when the secretary of the big leader came to ask.

"...Director Lü, I understand how you feel."

"To be honest, I'm completely baffled by the current situation!"

Gou Shuci first empathized with the other party, but then changed the subject:
"But before the game, Xiao Ai from Rui Zhao's side told Chairman Shang Chaotian that they had made special preparations for today's game!"

"Since they've all said that, I believe Rui Zhao must have her reasons for making this decision!"

"I've already arranged for Chairman Shang Chaotian to personally go to the preparation room to ask Xiao Ai for details about the situation. Director Lü, please don't worry too much, trust Rui Zhao!"

"...

"...Sigh! Never mind!"

After a brief silence, Director Lü, sitting opposite him, seemed to have grasped Gou Shuci's attitude and sighed softly:

"I see that Rui Zhao is not in a hurry at all, so what can I say?"

"Since the leader hasn't called you, it means he also trusts our eternal Zhaojun! Just look at what happens next..."

"Let's see what kind of surprise they will give us!"

...

...

Hmm... We won.

Quite simple.

One hour later, at 2:10 PM Beijing time, in the chess room of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Jiangdong.

With the game now at move 231, a sense of certainty about victory quietly crept into Musk's mind.

His gaze swept over the most intuitive assessment of the situation given by OMEGA GO—White's winning percentage: 99.9%, indicating that his victory was a foregone conclusion.

However, even though victory seemed within reach, and the win rate curve showed a complete and utter domination... Musk found it difficult to feel genuinely happy at that moment.

He seemed to be waiting for his opponent to admit defeat, but he clearly sensed an eerie atmosphere.

The atmosphere, like an invisible mist, permeated the chess room, like tiny thorns, constantly stimulating his keen business sense.

The sources of this eerie feeling can be found in many ways.

Firstly, there's Rui Zhao's speed in placing his pieces.

Although Lao Ma knew nothing about Go, he at least knew that Go was an extremely mentally and physically demanding sport.

Both sides have two hours of time left in this match. Logically speaking, a high-quality game usually takes three or four hours, or even five or six hours!
But today's game of chess... was played incredibly fast!
From the start of the game until now, the average thinking time for each move by both sides is probably only a dozen seconds!

There's no problem with him placing pieces quickly—because he's just an executor who doesn't need to think, completely relying on the AI's instructions, and the AI ​​usually places pieces quickly.

But why is Rui Zhao's progress so fast too?!

She's challenging AI, which represents the pinnacle of human intelligence! How could she be so decisive and so reckless?!
The game had only been going on for an hour, and 231 moves had already been made on the board!
At this rate, this game will probably be over in less than an hour and a half!

Isn't this a bit too fast?!

Secondly... is Rui Zhao's strength.

Before the match began, Musk specifically asked Kessler, the chief of the Deepbrain technical team who knew some Go, about the odds of either side winning. Kessler's assessment was very clear:
Although the current world number one has almost no chance of winning against the latest version of OMEGA GO, experts also emphasize that Eisei Zhaojun's level is indeed very strong, and OMEGA GO can only establish a clear advantage when the opponent is at least 100 hands away.

Musk had no doubt about this answer—because many mainstream opinions in public discourse expressed the same view.

But the strange thing is... this game of chess is not like that at all!
After just seven moves, Rui Zhao made a move that the AI ​​marked as "poor"! The ninth move was another "mistake"! The eleventh move was yet another "not good"!
In just three moves, Rui Zhao's winning percentage plummeted like an avalanche, from a near 50% equilibrium point to a staggering 2.8%!

Although Musk doesn't play Go and isn't sure if it's normal for his win rate to plummet to 2.8% in just a dozen moves, from a common-sense perspective, this seems completely unreasonable!
A player who stands at the pinnacle of human Go players, a world champion with countless titles... collapsed after only a few moves?

Is it reasonable that someone can't even memorize sheet music?!
Musk was increasingly puzzled, and what confused him even more were the judges and scorekeepers on site.

Although the competition rules stipulated that all staff members in the chess room must remain silent, Musk, who didn't need to think for himself and frequently observed his surroundings, still noticed the strange expressions on the referee's and the recorder's faces.

Because from the moment Rui Zhao made that seventh move, which was marked as "poor," the expressions of the two staff members became noticeably off!

Their brows furrowed deeper and deeper, their faces grew increasingly somber, and their eyes were filled with incredulous confusion. They even shook their heads slightly from time to time, as if they had witnessed some utterly foolish decision.

If it were just these issues, Musk could understand them: Rui Zhao's winning percentage did indeed plummet, and it didn't improve at all afterward.

What truly puzzled him was that, just about ten minutes ago, the expressions of the two men had undergone a dramatic change, as if they had seen a ghost!
Their eyes widened, their mouths opened slightly, their faces filled with shock and disbelief, and they couldn't help but exchange glances frequently.

Such a rich array of facial expressions and such intense emotional fluctuations must indicate that something extremely unusual is happening on the chessboard! This made Musk even more perplexed.

Instead of trying to say that there's something ordinary about this unusual situation...

That would probably only be evident in the unwavering seriousness of the Go goddess before us. From beginning to end, the eternal Zhaojun of China maintained that serene and composed demeanor.

Neither the disastrous collapse at the beginning nor the current perplexing situation showed any emotion on her face.

She just stared intently at the chessboard, placing her pieces one after another, as if nothing in the outside world mattered to her.

...Tsk!

But it doesn't really matter!

Old Ma shook his head vigorously, then turned his gaze back to the conspicuous 99.9% win rate, trying to force himself to suppress the unease in his heart.

The win rates provided by AI don't lie!
99.9%! This is almost a 100% victory!
No matter how bizarre the process is, no matter how strange the expressions of those staff members are, as long as we win, that's all that matters!

Commercial value, company stock price, Tripp's expectations... everything will change with this victory!

He then reached out, ready to follow the AI's prompts to continue making moves and gradually win the first human-machine competition.

But just as his fingertips were about to touch the chess box—

"boom!"

The heavy wooden door of the chess room was suddenly pushed open with a dull thud!

Musk was startled by the sudden noise and his whole body trembled!
He looked up abruptly and saw his personal secretary, Jennifer, leading several core members of the Deepbrain technology team as they rushed in like a whirlwind!

With an indescribable expression on their faces, they ignored the solemn atmosphere of the chess room and the astonished look in the referee's eyes, and went straight to Musk!

"...Jennifer?! How did you get in?!"

Musk was bewildered by the group of uninvited guests and quickly gestured for them to leave.

"The match isn't over yet. You'll be penalized for coming in now! Get out!"

But the secretary did not do as instructed; her face was extremely pale, as if she had just recovered from a serious illness.

"...Boss, there's no need to worry about winning or losing..."

Jennifer said in a low voice:

"After discussing with the technical team, we have conceded defeat on your behalf..."

"???
"Admit defeat?!?"

Upon hearing this word, Musk even doubted that he had misheard!

He immediately glanced back at the running computer—the latest version of OMEGA GO clearly showed his team's win rate at 99.9%, and by all accounts, victory seemed assured...

"……no?!

"I'm about to win?!"

Musk's incredulous voice suddenly rose as he asked the group again for confirmation:

"...So you...admitted defeat???"

"Uh... Boss..."

"The situation may not be as you imagine..."

At this moment, Kessler, the technical lead for OMEGA GO standing behind Jennifer, awkwardly took over the conversation, his voice trembling and his face extremely pale:

"The win rate given by OMEGA GO now..."

"It's not accurate!"

"...Not allowed?!"

Musk's eyes almost widened in surprise:

"What the hell is going on?! Can anyone tell me?!"

"Uh……"

Kessler, intimidated by Musk's extreme eagerness, instinctively took a half-step back. He swallowed hard, his voice low and hoarse:
"Simply put, OMEGA GO has a major bug! Its assessment of the situation is completely wrong, and based on that wrong assessment, it has made a fatal mistake..."

"We have already lost this game, and it's a crushing defeat with absolutely no chance of turning things around!"

"The public opinion outside the venue is already brewing, and we feel that there is no point in continuing to drag this out, so we have decided to concede and come in quickly to discuss countermeasures with you!"

...Huh?! Actually...

They've already lost?!
Upon hearing this, Musk was momentarily stunned, and turned back to look at OMEGA GO running on the computer beside him—and even now, the AI's win rate analysis was still an extremely ironic 99.9%!

"...What the hell happened?!"

Musk instantly erupted in hysterical fury, eager to know the reason.

But before he could get a reply from his subordinates, a clear and pleasant voice came from behind him...

“...Mr. Musk”

Having just learned from the referee that her opponent had conceded defeat and having packed away her chess set, Yong Shi Zhaojun slowly rose with a smile and addressed her opponent in slightly teasing English:
"It seems your company's AI..."

"Winning is actually quite easy."

After saying this, Rui Zhao didn't say anything more. She bowed to Weiwei and walked straight out of the chess room.

Meanwhile, outside the chess room...

It was a deafening roar from the entire world! (End of Chapter)
