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

"Xiao Lei... your whole body is red and warm!"

October 2, 9pm.

After watching the Nongshim Cup match that just ended, Huang Bo-nam couldn't help but sigh during the live broadcast:
"...Xiao Lei seemed very calm before the game, but when he really lost, his mentality was obviously fluctuating."

Today is the twelfth day of the first lunar month. Although most ordinary people have already stopped taking their Spring Festival holidays due to arrears, chess players have free time as long as they don't have any competitions.

Therefore, in today’s crucial battle of the Nongshim Cup, all the 9th-dan players from China who are not members of the Nongshim team can gather together via the Internet and watch the game together.

"This game of chess is really a pity."

Ji Qiujuan, who was also on the microphone and was good at planning, said softly:
"Xiao Lei, who played black, was obviously prepared for this game.

"He deliberately played a lot of unpopular moves but with a small drop in winning rate, constantly testing Liu Shixian's response. He also showed great composure in the middle game, and the winning rate of both sides was still 128- until the th move.

"Unfortunately, Lei Qi made a mistake in the upper right hand position when the clock was counting down, and lost two points.

“Although the number of shots was small, I guess Xiao Lei’s mentality changed all of a sudden.

"Xiao Lei's endgame skills are not actually weak, but with the disadvantage of two points, he had to fight with Master Liu, who is one of the top two endgame masters. It cannot be said that he had no chance at all, but the hope was indeed very slim, so he directly chose to fight hard and finally died."

"Hmm...you really can't make any mistakes when playing chess with Liu Shixian!"

Among the people on the mic, Smiling Tiger Bian Lele was the most active. Upon hearing this, he immediately cue Shangguan Sheng who was also on the mic:

"Hey, sir! I have a question for you!
"Pure Bi's final victory... Do you think you can defeat Young Master Liu?"

"Ah this...

"I can only say that his official position is definitely not weaker than mine!"

The official's voice was somewhat helpless:
"In fact, I can't judge it very accurately. The main reason is that when I play against him, he has the advantage in layout and mid-game, and he often plays it safe and makes concessions when he has the advantage on the board. It seems that he is at a greater disadvantage in the endgame..."

"Then what makes you say he is no weaker than you? Maybe he really is worse than you!"

Bian Lele replied unconvinced.

But Shangguan Sheng's voice became more and more bitter:

"But the problem is that every time he is more enthusiastic about entering the endgame, it seems that he is more enthusiastic than me..."

"..."×N
After these words were spoken, there was another silence on the microphone.

"Oh, I can understand it!
"Just like Jordan's nickname has always been 'The God of Basketball', and he would not be specifically nicknamed 'The Handsome Mid-Range Shooter'."

Zhu Yuanjun took over the conversation and said:

"Liu Shixian really has almost no shortcomings. Even his so-called fear of chaotic battles is just because chaotic battles are more unstable. Compared with Kung Fu chess, his chances of losing are a little higher.

"In fact, in most situations where he was dragged into a big fight, he still won."

There was another silence in the microphone.
This silence created a very depressing atmosphere.

Seeing that the discussion was becoming increasingly demoralizing, Bian Lele, who was acting as the temporary speaker, quickly stopped the discussion and changed the subject:

"Okay, since Xiao Lei didn't win, let's discuss the second part:
"Who is the substitute player? Tell the truth now and stop lying to everyone!

"I asked Lin Ruixin before, and he said that he would definitely play as the main player, and it was impossible for him to play second to last.

"Now that Xiao Lei has been knocked off the stage, who will be the next one to come? Don't hide it!"

But, even after saying this, there was still no response on the microphone.

"Well……

"Then it can only be Dai Gong!"

Bian Lele speculated upon seeing this:

"That makes sense. Everyone else is on the microphone now... only Dai Gong is not seeing anyone!
"I was wondering if there was something fishy about the recent welfare tournament of the chess association! It turns out they hired us to practice with them!

"Next time I will tell Chairman Shang that we are all top masters. How can a group of people help one person practice? They have to pay more!"

But at this moment, Long Bo hesitated for a while and then continued:
“But… to be honest.

"This fast chess game is really not like Dai Ran's style!"

"Eh?"

At this time, Shangguan Sheng, who had been silent all along, couldn't help but speak out:

"Do you feel the same way, Long Bo?"

As a veteran, Guan Ye and Dai Gong have played against each other many times, including many fast games.

Therefore, when participating in the "Spring Festival Welfare Competition", Shangguan Sheng felt that something was not right.

"what!

"Uncle Long, Lord Guan, do you both think so?"

At this time, Ji Qiujuan also joined the discussion:
“I also said that this doesn’t look like Dai Ge’s style of play at all.

"I had some doubts after playing those three games a few days ago. If Uncle Long and Guanye also have the same feeling...

"I guess the person we're playing against online isn't Brother Dai."

"Huh? Not Dai Gong?!"

Lele was also stunned. At that time, he was just working hard to make money and didn't think too much about it.

But now that I think about it, it seems that the style is a little wrong.

When things came to this, the nine-dan masters participating in the "Spring Festival Benefit Competition" also felt that something was not right, and the voice chatter on the microphone suddenly became noisy.

At this moment, the official, who was usually calm, raised his voice for a rare moment:
“Um…everyone!
“Actually, I have a bold guess…

"It may sound a little far-fetched at first..."

……

...Thank you for the treat, it was a very good meal.

At the same time, inside the chess game room of Dongjiang Hotel.

After Young Master Liu, who had just fought a fierce battle with the Chinese stalwarts, finished reviewing the game, he muttered to himself.

However, as the one being "eaten", Lei Qi on the opposite side could hardly be in a good mood.

Although he did not collect the chess pieces and run out of the game room directly as he did in the last Nongshim Cup, he completed a post-match review with Liu Shixian.

But looking at Lei Qi at this time, although he tried hard to make his tone and expression normal, his red cheeks and slightly trembling voice still fully expressed the unwillingness of the young man in front of him.

So... you want to win this game?
Young Master Liu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly.

It seems...

He was indeed very reluctant to let his rival take the field...

In fact, in Liu Shixian's opinion, Lei Qi played quite well in this game of chess.

At the beginning of the game, he frequently chooses unpopular changes outside the three choices, avoiding his extremely deep layout research ability.

He played steadily in the middle game, focusing on the quality of his moves, and did not blindly think that "to deal with Liu Shixian, you have to rely on a chaotic fight" and force a team fight.

If it weren't for the fatal mistake in the upper right corner, which made Lei Qi, whose nerves were still a little tense, unable to keep his balance, the game might have to be decided by the endgame.

——Of course, even if it is a competition of official pieces, Young Master Liu has enough confidence.

It seems...

Now is not the right time to talk to him!

Seeing that Lei Qi was not in a good state, Liu Shixian secretly gave up the idea of ​​communicating with his opponent.

Although Lei Qi did not give him any face at the opening ceremony of the third stage this time, Young Master Liu had no intention of settling scores later.

To this high-level entertainer, liquidation is still too low.

The reason why he put pressure on the Chinese Chess Association before was just because he hoped that this trip to Nongshim would not be too boring.

After all, the chess master Lin, whom he had studied thoroughly, had only been playing badly recently and posed no threat at all.

If the substitutes are obviously not strong enough, then the only person who can be regarded as Liu Shaoye's opponent in this competition is Lei Qi, which will inevitably make Liu Shixian lose interest. So he hopes that the Chinese Chess Association can at least replace him with a first-line 9th-dan player.
In his opinion, Lei Qi's retort at that time was nothing more than the correct response from his standpoint, and there was no need to waste his breath on it and cause unhappiness to others.

"Now that the review is over, Lei Qi, ninth dan, I'll excuse myself for now."

After collecting the chess pieces, Lei Qi sat in his seat, obviously in a low mood. Liu Shixian knew that it was not appropriate for him to stay there any longer.

"...Yes, please."

Lei Qi nodded slightly, exhausted, and it was obvious that he would need to rest for a while. Then Young Master Liu stood up and left.

But when Liu Shixian walked out of the chess room and prepared to be interviewed, he suddenly met someone who surprised him:

"what……

"You're finally here."

"……Eh?"

Rui Zhao was a little confused when he heard Liu Shixian's sigh as soon as they met.

She was standing guard at the door of the chess room. She had seen the live broadcast showing that Lei Qi was not in a good state. She wanted to wait for Lei Qi to come out and comfort him, but she didn't expect that Liu Shixian came out first.
However, Liu Shixian did not wait for Rui Zhao to respond, and continued:

"As we agreed last time, I promise to give my best tomorrow.

"Please... don't let me down too much!"

The girl finally reacted and pursed her lips.

Her originally gentle and pure temperament suddenly restrained and condensed into a stern and inviolable fighting spirit, which was not inferior in the slightest to the pressure from the number one in the world.

"I couldn't ask for more, Liu Jiuduan...

"Tomorrow, please give me your guidance!"

"Ah."

Young Master Liu nodded slightly, said no more, and walked straight towards the media reporters waiting not far away, ready to accept post-match interviews.

Now that the die is cast.

Why not relax and savor the flavor of this little dessert?
...

...

On February 2, after failing to challenge the South Korean main player in the last Nongshim Cup, Lei Qi, who served as the backbone this time, once again fell in front of Liu Shixian, who is known as the "Contemporary God of Nongshim".

As the news spread throughout China's major Go communities, various noises followed.

Although most chess fans believe that victory and defeat are common in the military, due to the poor performance of Chinese Go in the past two years, some fans are tired of failure and are still very dissatisfied with Lei Qi's result of "boasting before the game but losing again". For a time, the voices of "Meng Huo" were heard one after another in major Go communities.

However, this small rhythm was quickly drowned out by the shocking wave of public opinion that followed...

...

...

One hour after the twelfth game of this Nongshim Cup ended, the Nongshim Cup Organizing Committee announced the candidates for tomorrow's challenge submitted by the Chinese Chess Association.

The announcement of this candidate caused a huge stir, and the Chinese chess world, which had been in a gloomy mood due to Lei Qi's failed attack, instantly became an astonishingly heated discussion.

——The Chinese deputy general who will challenge the current No. 2 on February 10th is a current domestic female celebrity and a th-dan chess player who was recruited by the Chinese Chess Association through the wild card quota after Ni Jue was absent due to illness...

"Empress Zhao", Rui Zhao. (End of this chapter)
