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

At 6:11 pm on June th, in the chess room of Tongge Hotel.

After the final round of 290 moves between Lin Ruixin and Shen Qingrun, the top eight of this year's Tongge Cup were finally decided:

Liu Shixian, Xu Xiangheng, Li Junyan, Shen Qingrun, Lei Qi, Xiong Siyi, Sun Yi, and Shindo Hiroaki.

Because of this crucial defeat of chess master Lin, in the first Tongge Cup, China, which has always been known for its strength and played at home, actually fell behind in the number of quarterfinalists.

The Chinese chess world, which had more than half of the players sitting on the field before the round of 32 and was in an optimistic situation, has only three players left after just two rounds. The situation has taken a sharp turn for the worse.

Soon, the players who advanced to the next round would draw lots. Lin Ruixin, who had just been defeated by the old man, had no interest in staying here any longer. He skipped the review, put away his chess equipment, and walked out of the game room.

tsk...

Today's game of chess... I'm really into it!

After returning to the players' rest area, chess master Lin immediately opened his tablet to check the AI ​​winning rate curve, and couldn't help but feel regretful in his heart.

Once again failing to make the top four in the World Championships, it would be a lie to say he didn't feel sorry.

Any world championship is his chance to dominate the list of No. 1 in Chinese history, especially since he has been in good form recently in preparation for the Yingyi Cup. He himself cannot say how long his current good form can last, which makes the regret of losing the Tongge Cup even more evident.

But... Lin Ruixin was not too sad.

After all, it was just a moment of carelessness that led to the loss when the game was near the end. I will definitely not do that again next time if I pay more attention.

Moreover, the Tongge Cup is not his most important goal this year - anyway, according to official statements, the Tongge Cup is a world championship held once a year, so there will still be a chance next year.

His only real goal this year is the Yingyi Cup.

As long as we win the Yingyi Cup and complete the Grand Slam, we can let go of all other competitions!
However...the only thing that worries the great chess master Lin is.

Liu Shixian, the world's number one player, burst out with amazing strength after being nearly overturned by China's live broadcast queen in the round of 32.

In the round of 72, facing the Chinese chess player Tong Jingyou, Master Liu had a 96% first-pick rate throughout the game and a % matching rate for his first three picks. He pushed forward smoothly all the way, almost treating the Chinese chess player, who was an eighth-pick master, as if he were an amateur player.

This kid Liu Shixian... is he so difficult to deal with now?
Lin Ruixin couldn't help but frown.

Although he has been in good form recently, he has lost seven games in a row against the young master of the Liu family since the final of the LIG Cup in 2020. This is an outrageous difference in the record of chess players from two different countries.

There is no doubt that in the Yingyi Cup next month, this world number one player will still be his biggest obstacle to the championship.

But... Lin Ruixin really has no way to deal with this young man!
In the past two years, Young Master Liu has not been invulnerable.

He would lose to Dai Ran, Xiong Siyi, Tang Guansheng, Li Tingyan, and Han Chaojun, and this time he even almost lost to the female chess player Rui Zhao!
But for some reason, every time when playing against the great chess master Lin, Young Master Liu was in amazingly good condition, almost flawless, and he would literally press the great chess master Lin to the ground and rub him.

When Lin Ruixin thought that he might have to face this "Prime Minister" in the Yingyi Cup, it was difficult for him to be optimistic for a while.

But...it's okay.

This young man...he will eventually lose the game.

By then, he might inexplicably lose to some other chess player, just like the previous game in which he lost the championship, and then his chance would come.

Moreover, even if I really meet Young Master Liu, as long as it is not the final semi-finals or finals, I may not be able to seize the opportunity to decide the victory in a single game!

After calming himself down, Lin Ruixin breathed a sigh of relief and immediately switched to the business travel software to buy a ticket back to Dajing.

But at this moment, Yiguo took the opportunity to show him the latest news:
[The fifth round of Women's Weiqi League ended today, Pohu team defeated Jianghan team and won all 4.5 points]

【Zhao Tianhou is still making great progress after the Newcomer King competition and is expected to be promoted to the seventh level in the opening match of this year's Weiqi League in a month, setting a new record! 】

cut……

Seeing this news, Chess Master Lin smacked his lips slightly:
I clearly told her that I would “beat her every time I meet her” in official competitions, but this poor chess player actually dared to come play in the Chinese Go League!
You really feel that I can't compete with her if I step down from the command post, right?

For a moment, Lin Daqisheng couldn't help but think of letting foreign aid Xu Xiangheng sit on the main stage when he went to Pohu team. But when he thought about the fact that the winning fee of the main stage in the Weiqi League was almost twice that of the non-main stage, the Chinese Qisheng, who was always kind-hearted, gentle and easy-going, decided to let the other party go, not to argue with the little girl, nor to make things difficult for Mi.

...

...

call……

I seem to be more stable in playing chess recently.

On June 6, when the Tongge Cup round of 11 had just ended, a match in the fifth round of the Women's Go League had just ended in Jianghan City, the capital of Jingchu Province.

As the seventh place in the last league, the Jianghan women's team had weak overall strength. The Pohu women's team, playing away, successfully won all 4.5 points.

Facing the opponent, Chang Min, a 4th dan player, Uesaka Rei played normally. Although there were some minor mistakes, she still relied on higher chess quality to overwhelm her opponent and won two consecutive victories.

After the game of greeting, both sides put away their chess sets. Kouesaka couldn't help but stand up and stretch, while subconsciously looking around.

At this time, the games of the other two stages had already ended, but Lu Shijia from stage three was sitting on the sidelines resting, while Rui Zhao had disappeared.

She immediately returned to the sidelines, congratulated her teammates, and then came to the assistant and asked:

"Sister Airi, where's Rui Zhao?"

Assistant Ichinose Airi immediately said with vigilance:
"Rei-chan! What are you doing?

"You promised your father and Xia Chuan Qidan that you would not cause trouble for Rui Zhao!"

"no!"

Recalling the scene on the night of the 9th when he was clamoring to find Rui Zhao to fight, Xiao Shangsaka couldn't help but blush:
"I was just thinking, isn't she usually here with a tablet on her back reviewing the game after the game? Where is she?"

"Ah, you said that!"

Ichinose breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"Rui Zhao won today's game so easily... After the game, I saw her mumbling that there was a big difference in strength and there was no value in reviewing the game.

"Then... wasn't there a large group of chess fans gathered outside the stadium today? Rui Zhao went to take a photo with them!"

"group photo?"

"Yes! After all, it was so hot and everyone came here to support Rui Zhao. There were even chess fans who came from outside Jianghan City.

"Rui Zhao said that she definitely doesn't have the time to sign autographs for everyone because she still has to practice chess. But taking a photo with everyone can at least be considered a souvenir for everyone."

That's it...

In China, the atmosphere of Go is very good...

In Japan right now, not many people are interested in the chess instruction sessions at the chess academy...

Uesaka Rei thought to herself.

However, apart from being a crybaby, Xiao Shangsaka, who is quite precocious in other aspects, also knows that the attention to this round of the league will be so high because of the popularity of Rui Zhao, the beautiful star chess player, after her match with the world's number one player in the Tongge Cup.

Uncle Shindo has now made it to the quarterfinals, and Brother Ichijo and Brother Ueno are also working hard.

As long as I can catch up with my performance as soon as possible, I will be able to attract more chess fans to watch me play chess like Rui Zhao did!
What's more, I can read the atmosphere much better than her, so I will definitely be more popular than her!

The girl pursed her lips and made up her mind secretly.
