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

"Then, Liu Jiudan, let's review the situation here...

"Thank you for your advice!"

"Thanks for the advice!"

At 8 p.m. on August 5, at the Cultural Center of Ci Chi Town, Ningbo City.

Seeing his opponent's unwilling look, Liu Shixian smiled after returning the gift, appearing particularly gentle.

However, Lei Qi had no interest in appreciating this charming smile.

In the first set of the semi-final of the Yingyi Cup that just ended, although Xiao Lei, the 9th dan, tried his best to turn the situation into a strange chaos and tried to find opportunities in the chaos.

But Liu Shixian, who was in good form, did not make any mistakes and kept a firm control over the situation. By the end of the game, it was already a foregone conclusion that Liu Shixian was leading by two to three points, and Lei Qi had no choice but to resign.

"...Then Liu Jiuduan, see you tomorrow!"

Without any hesitation, Lei Qi said goodbye to his opponent and quickly left back to the hotel.

Liu Shixian looked at Lei Qi's receding back, still smiling.

A few days ago... I just ate the charming Dai Gong.

Now... I can enjoy the lively young man like Lei Qi again.

And when we get to the finals...

At this moment, Young Master Liu couldn't help but glance at the other chess table in the chess room.

——Now, the chess table is empty.

God always responds to the wishes of those who dare to set goals for themselves.

Although both are the best players in their respective countries, Lin Ruixin, who is obviously much stronger, showed great suppression in the first game. In just three hours and 144 moves, he defeated Takuya Ichijo with white, and the Japanese chess master's words came true.

Well……

This time, Lin Ruixin is finally willing to take it seriously! He didn't seem to care about his previous winning streak...

This time he is serious for once. I am really looking forward to teasing him, the most talented one, in the finals!

In addition, there are the previous fast chess master Kuai Liang, the "strength and weakness identifier" Sun Yi, the "flying knife expert" Ni Jue, etc...

Tut tut...

Having a large group of Go geniuses serving me alone is not a big blessing at all!

The curve of Young Master Liu's mouth deepened at this moment.

I couldn't understand it at first. What's the point of those useless chaebols collecting women to build harems every day...

Now, I finally understand a little bit...

It seems...it's indeed me who has become younger!

It’s great that China, a country with a large population, also plays Go!
Thinking of this, Young Master Liu immediately stood up and went to the storage room to retrieve his mobile phone.

However, when he restarted his computer, a message from the YiGo platform was pushed to him.

——Although the Yigu platform is a Chinese software, in order to learn about the chess news of the other two countries with the highest efficiency, Master Liu, who is fluent in three languages, has also downloaded the apps of Yigu and Dongying Chess Academy.

[Dimensionality reduction strike! —— Rui Zhao 103th dan returned to the women's arena and defeated Chen Xinmin th dan in the th round of the Chinese Women's Weiqi League with moves, and remained undefeated in the first half of the Women's Weiqi League! ]

Ok……

Actually...she is quite interesting.

Seeing this message, Liu Shixian blinked playfully.

It's a pity...

The gender is not right...

...

...

The first games of the two semi-finals generally met the overall expectations of all parties.

It goes without saying that Lin Ruixin is obviously stronger than Takuya Ichijo, and even though Lei Qi is in pretty good shape, it's not surprising that he's completely suppressed by Young Master Liu, who has been strong ever since the round of 32 in the Tongge Cup.

In a calm atmosphere, on August 8, the second semi-final of the Yingyi Cup continued in Mr. Ying Changqi's hometown, Ci Chi Town, Ningbo City.

In the match between Lei Qi and Liu Shixian, Lei Qi took some initiative at the beginning by taking advantage of a local research, and took the opportunity to force his opponent to start a melee, and at one point he had the upper hand.

But in the middle game, Lei Qi's inconspicuous but fatal mistake was keenly seized by the world's number one player. A white dragon that seemed to have no life or death problem was killed by the world's number one player who activated the "Liu Bu Shou" state. In the end, he had no choice but to admit defeat in the middle game, thus ending his first Yingyi Cup journey.

But just when everyone thought that the two world's best players from China and South Korea would meet in the Yingyi Cup final today to compete for the second Grand Slam in history, something unexpected happened that surprised everyone.

Chinese chess master Lin Ruixin, in the middle of the game, was clearly in an advantageous position, but for some reason he suddenly slowed down and made a series of moves, intending to win the game steadily, but before he knew it, the situation had reversed. By the time he realized it, it was too late to catch up.

Seeing that he was falling behind and realizing that something was not right, Lin Ruixin made his moves quickly, trying to launch a time attack to force his opponent to take penalty points or make mistakes in the chaos.

However, the Japanese chess master, who has always been considered to be more courageous than stable, showed great resilience and psychological quality. Facing the time attack of the seven-time Chinese champion, Takuya Ichijo responded appropriately, and at the last moment, he almost reproduced the classic scene of Rui Zhao's response to Li Tingyan's time attack in the round of 16. With extremely skilled endgame skills and strong psychological quality, he withstood the final counterattack of the chess master Lin, and finally won three points with white, leaving the suspense of the finalists to the last day of the semi-finals.

...

...

"Rui Xin, what's wrong with you today?

"The middle game suddenly became easy..."

At three o'clock in the afternoon on the 6th, Mo Wei, who was waiting in the lounge, saw Lin Ruixin coming back and asked with some concern.

Mo Wei was completely surprised that Takuya Ichijo won the game, and he couldn't help but ask about the great chess master Lin who had just returned.

Lin Ruixin, who had just been overturned, was naturally unhappy, but he still frowned and replied:

"Hey! I was a little anxious in the middle game, always wanting the opponent to take a penalty, so I didn't calculate some things clearly. In the end, that little bastard really managed to fish in troubled waters!

"There's nothing we can do about it. In Go, no matter how strong your opponent is, you'll still lose a game or two.

"Just like how Lao Li lost to that poor chess player, sometimes a blind cat will catch a dead mouse.

"But fortunately, the semi-finals are three games, so losing one game doesn't matter..."

"Uh……"

Although Mo Wei felt that comparing himself to a "dead rat" was not auspicious, he knew that this was definitely not the time to get entangled with Lin Ruixin over such a trivial matter.

"Then Ruixin, the day after tomorrow... there shouldn't be any problems, right?"

"What's the problem with that?"

Lin Ruixin didn't care at all:
"The last time a Chinese chess player lost to a Japanese chess player was almost twenty years ago!
"It's fine if the little bastard steals one plate, but have you ever seen a blind cat catch a dead mouse twice?"

Come again...

Seeing Lin Ruixin making such an analogy again, even though Mo Wei did not believe in the sayings like "omen", he still felt as if he had been cursed, and he could not help but frown.

But there shouldn't be any problem, right?
I just read the comments on various forums on the Internet. Although Ruixin lost a game, Chinese chess fans as a whole are very optimistic.

Losing to a Japanese chess player in a game of chess is indeed too unreal for China's number one chess player.

"Well, I'll have to work harder the day after tomorrow, Ruixin."

"Yeah, easy to say."

Internet celebrity Lin responded casually, not seeming to care much.

However, at this time, Mo Wei has not yet realized:

The mentality of the Chinese chess master had actually quietly changed because of something that happened on the board...

...

...

August 8th is the day for the final match of the three-game semi-final of the Yingyi Cup.

Takuya Ichijo, who "luckily stole a game" the day before yesterday, still came to the competition venue early, sat upright at the chessboard, stretched his body straight, and tried his best to adjust his condition to the best.

Facing this crucial deciding game, he acted as usual, appearing very relaxed yet extremely focused.

On the other hand, the Chinese chess master who arrived later was obviously not in a very good mood today, and seemed absent-minded.

In fact, Lin Ruixin had this state the day before yesterday during the competition.

As for the reason...it's very simple.

He never took Takuya Ichijo in front of him seriously.

But the question is...what happens after we defeat Takuya Ichijo?

Looking at the other empty chess table in the chess room, Lin Ruixin felt quite anxious.

In the second match of the semi-final the day before yesterday, Lei Qi failed in his confrontation with Master Liu and was defeated by his opponent in the middle game, thus ending up in the semi-finals.

Needless to say, the young Xiao Lei was very upset and unwilling, but the great chess master Lin, who noticed the movement in the other game, felt a sudden sinking of heart.

——The things he had been worrying about and even avoiding were finally in front of him:

Since defeating Liu Shixian in the 2020 LIG Cup final and winning his last world championship, Lin Ruixin and Liu Shixian have played against each other in seven official matches. Liu Shixian has not lost a single game and has taken the absolute initiative.

And now, facing his absolute nemesis, if Lin Ruixin wants to win the championship, he must win three games out of the five games in the final!
Even for someone as optimistic as Lin Ruixin, it is difficult to have any hope given the one-sided record of this year's encounters.

Obviously before 2020... I was suppressing him...

How come it has become like this now...

For a moment, Lin Ruixin pursed her lips subconsciously, then sat down in her chair with a thoughtful look on her face.

At 10:30 in the morning, the semi-final three-game match between Lin Ruixin and Takuya Ichijo began... (End of this chapter)
