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

Chapter 593 Progress
"……Hello?

"Xiao Zeng, do you have something to talk to me about?"

"Yes, yes, yes! Thanks, coach!

"Finally I've contacted you!"

March 3, Qiantang City, China.

When Xie Minghe's voice came out of the mobile phone receiver, a chess player named Zeng, who was at the eighth dan level, hurriedly responded:
"Uh, that's what happened!
"Didn't I tell you before that I wanted to renew the contract? Do you remember?"

Xie Minghe on the opposite side couldn't help but laugh when he heard this:

"It's only been a few days! How could I forget? Isn't it just a two-year extension according to the original contract terms?

"But your performance has improved so much recently, I thought you would definitely go out and find a position as a main chess player!
"In the end, I didn't expect you to be willing to continue to be a substitute in our team!"

"Of course!
"A son will never despise his mother's ugliness, and a son will never despise his family's poverty! Besides, our Qiantang team has always been a strong team, and even won the championship two years ago!

"Our Qiantang team has been very kind to me over the years, so I naturally can't just think of myself as having a little more strength, don't you think?"

Hearing Zeng Guangwen's words, Xie Minghe on the other end couldn't help but laugh:

"Okay, okay, okay! I'm also worried that if I let you go, you might be blocked in some round of the game!

"Since you think this is appropriate, we will have the team find you to sign the contract extension as soon as possible!"

"Yeah! No problem!"

Zeng Guangwen responded cheerfully and positively at first, and then his tone naturally became somewhat awkward:

"Uh, that's it...

"Thank you, Coach. I might be in a little trouble."

"Hmm? What little trouble?"

"It's like this. To be honest, I rejected all other teams and devoted myself to our Qiantang team.

"But I never expected that Rui Zhao actually called me last night and asked me to join their Pohu team!

"I said I had reached an agreement with our team to renew my contract, but she insisted that as long as I hadn't signed the contract yet, I could still regret it! I was at a loss for words!
"And you know, I've been following Rui Zhao for the past year or so, so it's not easy for me to confront her openly.

"You are a highly respected person in our Chinese chess world. Can you please tell the Pohu team that I am already taken?"

"is it?"

Hearing this, Xie Minghe was obviously a little surprised:
"Is this happening?"

"Mmmmmmm!"

Zeng Shabao on the other end of the phone nodded rapidly.

What the Queen's Dog said was absolutely true: Rui Zhao had indeed contacted him last night, hoping that he could join the Pohu team to join in the event.

But...let's be honest.

Perhaps for the vast majority of chess players in the Chinese Weiqi League, being promoted from a substitute to a main player is something they would love to have, but Zeng Shabao is an exception.

The reason is simple - for Zeng Guangwen, who now has over a million fans, there is absolutely no need to work himself to death every day just to win a few games!
Isn’t it great to take advantage of the queen’s popularity, receive tips and occasionally sell some small goods?

Going out to play chess is not only tiring, but it also affects the money he makes from live streaming. If his winning rate is low, it will also affect the reputation of his Sky-Roaring Dog. Isn't that throwing away the watermelon to pick up sesame seeds?
Therefore, he rejected all the previous Weiqi League teams that approached him, and only wanted to stay in Qiantang team as a substitute to make money. Even if Jiao Kai came to persuade him, he would refuse on the grounds that he "did not want to let down his mother team".

Unexpectedly, his master also contacted him, which made Zeng Guangwen a little embarrassed.

——After all, Queen Zhaotian is his current destined benefactor, so he dare not offend her!
But...it is impossible to ask Zeng Guangwen to just accept his fate.

Being a main player under the watchful eyes of the Pohu team must be more uncomfortable than being in other teams!
To use a not-so-appropriate metaphor, it's a bit like having your own mother be your class teacher. How can you be comfortable with that?

Therefore, the Queen's Dog dealt with it in a nice way, saying that he would go and talk to the Qiantang team about leaving the team; at the same time, he directly contacted Xie Minghe, hoping that Coach Xie could help him.

Hearing Xie Minghe's tone that he also wanted to keep him in the team as a substitute, Zeng Shabao immediately felt that there was a chance, and looked forward to Xie Minghe's ability to persuade Rui Zhao. Lest he be taken away by the contemporary Zhaojun, from then on, in addition to worrying about the winning rate in sparring, he also had to worry about his performance in the Weiqi League, which was somewhat unnecessary.

However, what Zeng Guangwen never expected was...

Xie Minghe gave a completely unexpected answer:
"Then I must let him go!"

...? ...

A question mark slowly appeared above Zeng Shabao’s head.

"……ah?!
"Coach Xie, what did you say?!"

"Ah, what I mean is, if it was Rui Zhao who came to ask for someone, then I would definitely support him!

"This girl is really a good girl! To be honest, we often joke in our team that you have really followed the right person!

“This time, Rui Zhao’s team almost got relegated. I heard that Chairman Shang was very nervous, fearing that something bad would happen again.

"It would be best if you could go over and help them with their reinforcements! I certainly wouldn't be able to take advantage of you any more!"

“…Ah, ah?!
"But, but weren't you worried that if I went to another team, it would block our team?!"

"Hey, Rui Zhao's team is very weak, they are trying to stop us with their heads!"

Facing Zeng Guangwen's question, Xie Minghe didn't care at all:

“Xiao Zeng, although you have made great progress recently, you are still not a panacea!

"Okay then! It's settled!

"Tomorrow night at the Weiqi League Awards Ceremony in Tiangang City, I will take you to have a face-to-face talk with Rui Zhao. You can leave the next season to her!"

"...Eh? No, Coach Xie, please wait..."

Zeng Guangwen realized that the other party seemed to have the intention to finalize the matter and hurriedly prepared to say something to save the situation, but who knew that Xie Minghe had already hung up the phone.

This made Zeng Xigou completely dumbfounded.

He never expected that Xie Minghe would sell him to Poyang Lake without saying a word!
No, it can be like this?!

I have fought for Qiantang and made contributions to the team!!!
Zeng Guangwen hurriedly tried to redial the number, intending to ask Xie Minghe for more advice. Unexpectedly, Xie Minghe called back first!

Ouch!

I knew that Coach Xie would not be so disregarding of the overall situation and leaving me alone!
After all, I am a strong soldier now and can contribute my remaining energy to the team. How can I be let go just like that?

Zeng Guangwen quickly picked up the phone, but just as he was about to start talking to Xie Minghe, the words on the other end blocked his mouth:
"Thank you, Coach. I think this matter is still..."

"...Oh, by the way, I just forgot to tell you!

“We’re going to Sky Harbor tomorrow, so remember to dress formally!

“You’ll most likely win the Most Improved Award this time, and you’ll be on stage!

"Don't be so unkempt like you were last year!"

“…Huh?

"Most Improved Award?!"

Hearing this slightly unreal term, Zeng Baduan's brain buzzed and he was unable to react for a moment...

...

...

"What's wrong, Yu Hong? Why did you suddenly find time to come here today?

"I thought you were going to watch Xiao Lei's finals this afternoon!"

March 3rd is the second match day of the Weiqi League finals.

That afternoon, Liu Yuhong came to the Bella Confinement Center, and when Wang Haocheng saw his junior coming, he naturally greeted him with a smile.

However, it was obvious that Queen Mulan was quite worried today, and her response was a bit absent-minded:

"Ah, this kid Xiao Lei doesn't even pay attention to my games, why should I care about him!"

“…Is that so?

"That's fine! Anyway, I have Rui Zhao's live broadcast on my TV, so I can watch it at the same time."

As Wang Haocheng spoke, he called out to the younger generation:
"Come, sit down!

"Or... do you want to see Junjun first?"

"...Junjun?"

"Ah, Xiongxiong and I picked out a name for the baby these days!"

Seeing the slight doubt in Liu Yuhong's eyes, Wang Haocheng immediately explained:
"Her full name is 'Rujun', which means ideal husband.

“But these two characters are too positive, so I used Jun with a Wang character on the side as my nickname, which is a little more cute and also happens to fit my last name!
"Oh, of course. The reason why I chose 'Rujun' is also to include my last name!

"After all, the word 'king' doesn't sound so nice when added directly into the name..."

Hearing this, Liu Yuhong blinked and thought:
“Gu Rujun…it’s a nice name.

"So... Sister Wang, you helped Jingjing pass a message to the Pohu team, right?"

Wang Haocheng tilted his head when he heard this, as if he was not surprised at all that Queen Mulan would ask this:
"...From what I heard, Jingjing has already negotiated with the Pohu team?"

"Ok.

"Next, she will play for both the men's and women's teams of Pohu, just like Rui Zhao did last season. I just got the news this morning."

"So...she will basically be stationed in Poyang Lake next season?"

"Correct."

"Well, Jingjing is also from southern Jiangsu, it's not easy for her to make this decision!"

Wang Haocheng said with emotion:

"But... this shows how determined Empress Zhaotian, a girl from Dongjiang, is when it comes to doing things!

"Next season, she should be a permanent member of the main podium, right?
"This little girl Rui Zhao...is really a good role model!"

Having said that, Wang Haocheng naturally turned his gaze towards the TV which was playing the live broadcast of "Go Xiao Zhao".

Rui Zhao on the screen was seen wearing a very close fitting red dress. She and Xiong Siyi, who also came to Tiangang to attend the Weiqi League awards ceremony in the evening, were playing various variations of the game between Lei Qi and Lin Ruixin, and they seemed very involved.

After a few seconds of silence, Wang Haocheng took a deep breath and then said without any context:
"...Yu Hong, don't blame Jing Jing, blame me!
"Sometimes I actually reflect on whether you and Zou Yang can achieve greater success if Xuefei and I can be stronger and more courageous like Ruizhao.

"In my opinion, in terms of talent, you two are actually no worse than that Jin Youen..."

"Sister Wang! You take yourself too seriously!"

It was rare for Liu Yuhong to speak rudely to his predecessor.

"……maybe!"

Wang Haocheng was not at all annoyed by Xiao Xiaoniao's small retort, but just smiled quietly:

"But for Jingjing...

"Rui Zhao... is really important. Don't you think so?"

Liu Yuhong didn't say anything after hearing this. He just lowered his eyes and looked at the ground silently. After a while, he sighed and said:

"Let's put other things aside. At least now I understand Xiao Mian Yang's determination to beat Rui Zhao at last year's Mulan competition...

“All I can say is…

"I hope Jingjing can rush to me again in this Mulan competition!"
