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

Tsk, liar...

You clearly said you would surpass me...

But this path is clearly heading towards Liu Shixian!"

At 10:23 pm on October , in a room of Meida Plaza Hotel in Zhenze City.

Lei Qi, who had just finished analyzing today's match between Rui Zhao and Lang Haishen, leaned back and sighed, his expression slightly conflicted.

Half a year later, the young Chinese leader's appearance and figure seemed to be the same as before. However, he had officially turned 20 in August this year, and he still revealed a more calm and mature temperament, which made people look at him with more attention.

The Masters Tournament... is next month.

At that time, she should restrain herself and strive for victory, right?
Thinking of this, Lei Qi narrowed his eyes, but at this moment, he heard a knock on the door and a familiar voice:

"Lei Qi, are you there?"

Hmm? Teacher?

Lei Qi reacted and jumped up from his chair and hurried to open the door:

"Teacher Shang! Why are you here?"

The person who came to the door was the chairman of the Chess Association, Shang Chaotian. He looked at his most proud student and said jokingly:

"It's like this. I'm going to Oro City tomorrow. So I came to say goodbye to you, the leader of the new generation!"

On October 10, the first Zhaojun Tournament after the name change will officially start in Oroqen City, and there will be an opening ceremony and welcome dinner the next evening.

Therefore, Shang Chaotian, who had just attended the opening ceremony of the Changqi Cup in Zhenze City, will rush to Oro City in the border Mongolian area tomorrow. This was indeed planned in advance.

However, although there was nothing unexpected about Shang Chaotian's itinerary, Lei Qi still led him into the room and said modestly about a statement made by the teacher:

"Oh, teacher, you are joking!

"I have only won three world championships, how can I say I am a leader?

"Besides, we won the Tongge Cup thanks to Zhuang Zheng's sudden breakthrough and elimination of Liu Shixian. If we really meet him in the final, I feel it's hard to say..."

"Hey, what do you mean by three world championships doesn't count as leading a team? Your Uncle Lu will be unhappy to hear that!"

Shang Chaotian walked into the room and sat down while jokingly saying:

"What's more, you are really performing well now. Not to mention the two domestic championships of the King of Kings Tournament and the Pinghu Rapid Chess Tournament, just the three titles you hold are amazing!
"One person holds three titles at the same time. This is a feat that has never happened in the history of Chinese Go! Not to mention that one of them also includes the first title [Go Saint]!
"You said you were not the leader, who would believe that?"

Yes, what Shang Chaotian said is true.

Lei Qi, who already holds the title of [Chess Saint], is undoubtedly the best player in the country at the moment, and fully deserves the title of "leader"!

Since winning the Spring Orchid Cup in May this year, the young "future No. 1" has been on a roll:
In May, he won the King of Kings Tournament. In June, he defeated Lin Ruixin, who was obviously in poor form, with a score of 3-0 and won the title of "Chess Saint".

In July, he won the second Tongge Cup. In August, he defeated Sun Yi 2-0 to defend his title as a national player. In September, he won the Pinghu Rapid Chess Tournament trophy for the second time, breaking the curse of no one winning twice in the past ten years...

So far, he has won three world championships and two runner-ups, as well as three domestic titles.

It is not an exaggeration to say that such an achievement makes one a “leader of a generation”.

At this point, Lei Qi knew that being modest was not appropriate, so he stopped dwelling on the term "new generation leader". Instead, he lightly changed the subject:

"Anyway, I still have to keep working hard! Compared to Liu Shixian... I don't think I have any advantage.

"Ah, Mr. Shang, would you like some tea? I'll go boil some water if you need it!"

"No, no! I'll be right back!"

Shang Chaotian realized that the topic had gone a bit off topic, and then he got back to the point of why he had come to see the students this time:

"However, in addition to saying goodbye to you, I also have another thing I want to ask you - about Rui Zhao."

"Rui Zhao?"

"Yes."

Shang Chaotian expressed concern:

“You also know that the title of [Zhaojun] is said to be taken from historical allusions, but anyone with a discerning eye knows that it was essentially tailor-made for Rui Zhao by Oro City, hoping that Rui Zhao could always hold on to this title and use her and her title of the country’s number one woman as a new business card for Oro City.

"But Rui Zhao's recent performance is far from ideal, and has been erratic. Many people are even wondering whether she will lose the title in this Zhaojun competition.

“Although I wanted to ask her about her ups and downs in grades, she just told me not to worry and didn’t reveal anything else.

"But how can I not worry!

"If Rui Zhao loses the title in the first Zhaojun Competition, it will be so embarrassing! Not only will her public opinion be worse, but even the major sponsor, Or'er City, will be affected!

"So, I wanted to come to you to learn more. After all, you and her have fought three times in the past six months, and I saw that you often reviewed and discussed the situation in private. Maybe you know something."

Ah... So that's how it is...

Then you really asked the right person. After finding out the teacher's intention, Lei Qi smiled and said:

"Teacher Shang, you don't have to worry about this.

"Although she hasn't told me much about this, from my perspective, she's just trying to change her style recently."

"Try hard to change your style?" Shang Chaotian was obviously a little surprised.

"Yes, judging by her recent performances."

Lei Qi nodded and said:
"If you pay close attention to her recent chess moves, you will find that she plays chess based on the opponent's skill.

“She used her original fighting style to deal with inferior players, ensuring that she could defeat the top players in every match.

"When she meets a strong opponent, she will directly try out her more radical new style, not caring whether she can win the game or not. She will just play whatever she thinks is most efficient, and she is very decisive.

"So, in my opinion, she may feel that her original extreme fighting style is easy to be targeted when facing the top players. In order to increase her winning rate as much as possible, she is trying hard to learn the AI's thinking. To be honest, her new style is actually very similar to Dai Gong's."

"Ah this..."

Shang Chaotian was speechless for a moment, and after being stunned for several seconds, he continued to ask:

"She was performing well before, why did she suddenly change her style?

"To put it another way, even if she insists on changing her style of play, it's not impossible. Why rush it?

"She doesn't even realize how many people are trying to discredit her because of this!"

"Teacher Shang... don't you know her yet?"

Lei Qi smiled bitterly and said:
"Given her usual style, I'm afraid someone is smearing her online, and she doesn't even know about it."

"..."

Shang Chaotian was silent for a while: What the student said is absolutely right!
At that time, Zhaojun almost never visited any forums or communities. Some external situations and news were basically only mentioned when Ai Jianan felt it necessary to communicate with her, highlighting the image of "turning a deaf ear to the outside world and focusing only on the chessboard."

It is very possible that Rui Zhao is unaware of some of the current controversies concerning her!
Seeing that Shang Chaotian did not speak, Lei Qi continued to explain:

"…As for why she is in such a hurry…

"Maybe he's eager to improve his strength before a certain competition!"

"Important game?"

Shang Chaotian couldn't help but wonder:

"Zhaojun Tournament? Or the Dream Lily Cup at the end of the year?"

"Uh……

"It's just a guess, I don't know the details."

Lei Qi responded calmly - after all, he only had a vague premonition about some things.

What's more, there are already enough controversies surrounding his "strong rival" at the moment, and there is no need for him to reveal some "speculations" that may cause trouble.

"Well……"

Shang Chaotian pondered:
"So, you think that if Zhaojun plays three games, Rui Zhao should be able to defend the title?"

"Yes."

Lei Qi's answer was without any hesitation or doubt:

“In the past six months, her strength has actually been improving.

"Like last month's Pinghu Rapid Chess Tournament round of 16, my victory over her was very thrilling!

“It’s just that she’s intentionally betting harder against stronger opponents in the hope of improving her strength more quickly, so she often appears to be a bit unstable.

"After all, if you want to play the most efficient chess game, you really have to push yourself to the limit."

Hearing this, Shang Chaotian's expression eased slightly, but he soon frowned again:

"But how long can she maintain this up-and-down state?

"The purpose of playing Go is to win! Even if, as you said, she wanted to improve her skills as much as possible before a certain competition, if she is used to playing like this, aren't you afraid that she won't be able to adjust?"

"That shouldn't happen..."

Lei Qi smiled and said:

"In fact, if you watch her live broadcast often, you will know...

"She actually doesn't always do such extreme things." (End of this chapter)
