Chapter 594 Award Ceremony
"Tsk, I lost!"

On the same day, at 6:10 in the afternoon, in the chess room of Crowne Plaza Sky Harbor Hotel.

After five hours and ten minutes of fierce fighting, the main battle of this year's Weiqi League finals finally ended.

Seeing that the game had entered the final stage of the endgame, and the situation in which Black was leading by about two points could no longer be shaken, Lin Ruixin had no choice but to resign.

What followed was the cheers from the Dajing team members and coaches on the sidelines.

Although the last match between Liang Sizhen and Tao Chen has not yet ended, after the end of this game, the Dajing team has taken a 2-1 lead with the main player winning.

In this way, even if Tao Chen defeated Liang Sizhen in the last match, the Dajing team would win with the advantage of the main player! The suspense of the championship has been revealed!
……call!

It was not until the opponent finally admitted defeat that the young captain of the Dajing team finally breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, compared to the World Championship, the young Lei Qi is not that obsessed with the league championship.

But after seeing the outstanding performance of the current Zhaojun in the relegation battle, the current national player knew that his only goal in this playoffs was to lead the team to win the championship.

Now, I am fortunate enough to have fulfilled my mission!
She led the team to avoid relegation, and I led the team to win the championship. We both have a bright future!

Well, she is a girl after all.

I... still need to work hard to do better!

Thinking of this, Lei Qi pursed his lips slightly.

Obviously, winning the Weiqi League championship should be a happy thing, but at the moment Lei Qi only has a sense of relief that "I finally passed the make-up exam", and he really can't say he feels much joy.

...Hurry up and finish the things at hand, and go back to your room to review them before the ceremony in the evening!
Xiao Lei Jiudan thought so and immediately prepared to return the gift to his opponent.

But at this moment, Lin Ruixin's unruly and frivolous voice came from the opposite side:
“…Xiao Lei, you’ve been in good shape recently!
"It seems that you are determined to win the title of [Chess Saint] this year!"

Lei Qi stared at him for a moment and answered casually:
"The more important ones that came earlier...aren't they the Sanshuang Cup and the Chunzhilan Cup?"

Lin Ruixin took a look at his young opponent and raised the corner of his mouth:
"It is generally acknowledged in the chess community that [chess masters] are greater than individual world champions."

"maybe……"

Lei Qi said slowly:
"But the last time we won the World Cup was the Sanshuang Cup two years ago...

“I haven’t won a world championship in two years, and I feel very unwilling, let alone the whole country!
"Compared to the [Go Saint], I really think breaking the world championship drought is more important..."

"Oh, still pretending!"

Lin Ruixin sneered and said:

"After losing the last chess tournament, he ran out of Tongge Tower screaming and shouting, his grief was written all over his face! But now he's pretending that nothing matters!"

Hearing this, Lei Qi glanced at the other party, sighed and said:
"Well, Master Lin.

"If you can help us break the championship drought in the Sanshuang Cup or the Chunzhilan Cup, I will withdraw from this Chess Saint Tournament and not cause any trouble for you, Chess Saint Lin.

"I keep my word. If you agree, I can officially announce this at the ceremony tonight. What do you think?"

"...

"Heh! Stop distracting me!"

After a slight pause for words, Lin Ruixin said something rather impolitely and then left.

Seeing the chess master Lin leaving, Lei Qi raised his eyebrows, then quietly put away his chess equipment, stood up and left, heading straight to the interview area for an interview.

However, when he left the game room, he soon discovered that something was wrong:
Today... why are there so many reporters and media?

But soon, Lei Qi reacted.

Oh, by the way...she will also attend the award ceremony today!

Maybe he even set up a makeshift broadcasting station somewhere and was explaining his own game...

...

...

At 8 o'clock in the evening of the same day, the award ceremony of this year's Weiqi League was held as scheduled in the auditorium of Crowne Plaza Tiangang Hotel.

According to past practice, the award ceremony will honor the top six teams in the league and individual award winners, so the top six teams and candidates for each award (who will not be announced to the public, but will be notified privately and asked to come) will all come to participate in the event.

Other teams without any awards will also send one or two representatives to exchange feelings and liven up the scene.

But...the award ceremony of this year's Weiqi League was unprecedented.

Ever since Rui Zhao put in a remarkable performance in the Weiqi League relegation battle, the entire chess circle, including the Weiqi League, has quickly attracted great attention from the outside world.

In addition to the leaders, team leaders, coaches and players in the chess circle, this ceremony also attracted a large number of league and team sponsors and news media, and even deputy leaders from Tiangang City came to the platform.

This made the award ceremony of the Weiqi League, which used to be a bit shabby, suddenly crowded with people and horses, and it was very lively! Many veteran Weiqi players present were deeply moved and touched.

I won’t go into detail about the speeches made by the leaders above, and will go straight into the award ceremony.

In this competition, Dajing, Tiangang and Qiantang won the first, second and third place respectively, while Xidu, Dongjiang and Yuzhou ranked fourth to sixth.

Each team took turns to go on stage and take photos with the leaders of the chess association who came to present the awards.

After the team awards, the individual awards will be announced.

The two major awards of [Most Valuable Chess Player] and [Best Captain] were unsurprisingly awarded to the young world champion of the Dajing team - Lei Qi!
In this league, the incumbent national players showed excellent competitive form and long-term stability, with 13 wins and 2 losses in the regular season and 4 wins in the playoffs. They are the backbone of the Dajing team's championship. They deserve these two honors!

As the chairman of the chess association and Lei Qi's teacher, Shang Chaotian naturally presented awards to the students. Judging from his facial expression, Shang Qi Wang was in a good mood today.

[Sports Spirit Award] goes to Pengze team veteran Huang Bonan.

Lao Longbo has been participating in the Weiqi League for 17 years this year, and he still maintains a very good competitive form, which is worthy of admiration!

Vice Chairman of the Chinese Go Association Lu Wenjie came on stage to present him with the award in recognition of his long-term contribution to Chinese Go.

The winner of the [Best Winning Rate Award] is the 22-year-old "young player" Peng Wendong from the Xidu team.

In this league, he achieved an excellent record of thirteen wins and two losses in the regular season, tied with Lei Qi for first place in the regular season. With his outstanding performance in the league, he became the sixth post-00s player to be promoted to the highest level.

Although Lei Qi and Peng Wendong have the same record, and most of the games were won on the main general platform, the individual awards in the Weiqi League have always been evenly distributed, and the [Best Winning Rate Award] and [Best Main General Award] are generally not given to the same person, so it is natural for Peng Wendong to win this award.

Another vice chairman, Kong Zhiyong, also came on stage with a smile on his face to present the award to him and encourage the young chess player.

The next [Most Improved Award] was given to Qiantang team's substitute chess player, Zeng Guangwen, the "Roaring Sky Dog under the Queen's Seat", almost without any suspense.

Although Zeng Badan only bet on six regular season games and four playoff games this year, with an average attendance rate, his record of five wins and one loss in the regular season and two wins and two losses in the championship zone playoffs is already impressive enough!
In this league, the traditional powerhouse Qiantang team was able to occupy the top three positions in the regular season and eventually won the third place in the league despite the injury of general Ni Jue. Zeng Dashabao made an indispensable contribution to this!

Jiao Kai, the national team coach and Zeng Guangwen's teacher, personally went on stage to present the award to his student. He was so happy and proud! He felt a sense of satisfaction that the defective products that had been accumulated for many years had finally become popular goods!
I just don't know why, at such a glorious moment, Zeng Guangwen, who had never won any honor in his entire career, had such a complicated expression, which was in sharp contrast to Jiao Kai, who was beaming with joy next to him, which was quite puzzling.

And finally, there is the [Best Newcomer] award...

Almost everyone knows that this award is even less of a foregone conclusion than the Most Improved Award.

Moreover, if this award was given to someone else, then all the media’s trip would have been in vain!
Soon, Shang Chaotian, the head of the Chinese Chess Association who had just presented the award to Lei Qi, took the stage again under the auspices of Xu Qinglan and solemnly and formally announced:
"The winner of the Best Newcomer award of the Chinese Go League A this season is...

"Rui Zhao 9th Dan from Pohu Jinlai Environmental Protection! Please come on stage to receive the award!"
