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

"Wow……

"Today...why are there so many media?"

It is February 2th, in Xidu City, the capital of Qinguan Province, at Shengtang International Hotel.

The little witch, who was following the team to the chess room, couldn't help but let out a small exclamation when she saw a crowd of chess fans and media outside as she walked through the corridor.

"This is not much worse than the Lily Cup in my dream, right?!

"But isn't today just a round of Weiqi?"

"Xiao Yang! For my second niece, this is a piece of cake!

"You have to know how much attention our match against Xidu team has attracted even though it is just a Weiqi League match!"

Seeing that Yang Manjing looked like he had never seen the world, Elder Du, the "Triple Crown King" who had seen all kinds of storms, said calmly:
"First of all, our game has a huge impact on the regular season rankings and playoff matchups of the Weiqi League, so I won't talk about that.

"Besides, you have also seen my second niece's recent performance in the Weiqi League. It is getting more and more outrageous!
"My second niece is a top-notch star in our chess world. She is so popular! But recently, she has been playing in these Weiqi League matches... I can only say it is simply unbelievable!

"Every game was smooth sailing. Facing masters of Lao Li, Lao Xu and Xiao Xiong's level, every game was like an exhibition match. It was very entertaining! It was so eye-catching!
"Since the 13th round of the Chinese Weiqi League, the sports news has started to regularly report the results of each round of the game, and it is ranked quite high!
"In the past, only the World Championships and the Nongshim Cup were so prestigious! It's unthinkable to broadcast the results of every round of the Weiqi League!
"Plus, this is the game where my niece is going to advance to the next level, and the opponent is the round pig who once mocked my niece before, saying that she still has a long way to go before reaching the ninth level. Do you think this is going to attract a lot of attention?!

"Believe it or not: Although we are playing away this time, I'm afraid that at least 80% of the chess fans who came here are here to support my second niece?"

"Eh……

"really?"

Just when Yang Manjing had some doubts about the high proportion of "80%", he heard a very enthusiastic voice coming from the front!

As the main player of the team, Rui Zhao received the warmest cheers and support from chess fans as he passed through the hotel lobby!

Rui Zhao, who is about to turn twenty-one and has lost the immaturity of her girlhood, is no longer surprised by this.

She showed a very standard business smile and waved to the media audience waiting in the lobby with just the right amount of enthusiasm.

Although she reveals some silly nature from time to time in her daily life, under the spotlight of the media, with the two major titles of "Celebrity" and "Zhaojun", she already knows how to represent the image of Chinese Go in such occasions.

Dignified but not solemn, beautiful but not coquettish.

The famous lady Zhaojun deserves this!
"Well……

"She is indeed very popular..."

Facts speak louder than words. Yang Manjing could only whisper and had to admit defeat.

The little witch has always been competitive with Sister Rui - both on and off the court.

But seeing that the "little Hermione" in the team seemed a little depressed, Du Weichen smiled and raised his eyebrows, and reminded her:
"Hey Xiao Yang! Why are you so depressed?

"I remember you have quite a few fans, maybe some of them will come to the scene today!

"Moreover, as the holder of the dual titles of 'Empress' and 'Mulan', and the only two female players who have long served as the main force in the men's Go League, you are also one of the faces of our Chinese Go.

"In front of fans and the media, you should also try your best to show your best side!"

"……Eh?"

Hearing this, Yang Manjing was slightly stunned, but soon lowered his eyes and nodded seriously.

When the girl appeared in front of the media and chess fans with her teammates, she also imitated Rui Zhao, trying to put on the cutest smile possible and waved to everyone.

Following the little witch's greeting, a small number of chess fans at the scene cheered exceptionally loudly...

...

...

"Okay, hello everyone, I'm Ran Ran!

"Welcome to watch our match between Pohu team and Xidu team in the last round of this year's Weiqi League regular season in the famous historical city of Xidu!"

At 11:57 am on the same day, Yan Hui returned to the Sheng Tang International Hotel, to the live broadcast room of [Weiqi Xiao Zhao]. As for this most watched match in the last round of the Weiqi League, Hua Ran naturally came to the scene to give a live broadcast explanation as usual:
“This game is very important to Rui Zhaojie and the Pohu team!

"If Sister Rui Zhao can win this game, she will meet the requirements for all three promotion points and be promoted to the eighth dan!
"The result of this round of matches will also determine whether the Pohu team can enter the championship zone in one fell swoop!

"Our guest today is Cheng Yuyang 3rd Dan from Jianghan Team!

"He and Sister Rui Zhao both came from the Muhu Go Dojo in Dongjiang City, and both successfully qualified as professional players in 2023! Previously, he played against Sister Rui Zhao as the team leader in the 12th round! Welcome everyone!"

"Hello everyone! I am Cheng Yuyang from the Jianghan team!

"I am very happy to be today's guest and to be here to broadcast live for you all!"

Cheng Yuyang was still tall and thin, and greeted everyone with a slightly reserved smile.

Compared to Rui Zhao, he is younger and has not completely gotten rid of his youthfulness, but his speech, behavior and clothing have become much more mature than when he was first promoted to the professional level, and he looks like a decent player now.

After the guest introduced himself, Hua Ran also skillfully took over the conversation and continued with the topic he had prepared in advance:
"Ah, I heard from Sister Rui Zhao before that Cheng Sandan performed very well when he was in Muhu Go Dojo! In the 2023 Dan Qualifying Tournament, the two of them will be the top scorers in the women's and men's groups respectively!
"Although you are promoted to the dan rank at an advanced age, it seems that your development as Cheng Sandan is not bad at all!

"Being able to play in the Weiqi League in the third year after becoming a professional player is a very outstanding achievement!"

"Ah, it's not that great..."

Cheng Yuyang smiled bitterly and explained:
"To be honest, the reason I was able to join the Jianghan team this year was not because of my outstanding strength or potential on the field, but mainly because I have a deep understanding of the styles and local changes of some chess players. I can be regarded as an analyst and also serve as a substitute player."

"Analyst...?"

"Yes."

Cheng Yuyang naturally explained his main work in the Jianghan team:
"As a professional league, due to the low level of commercialization and attention in the past, the style research and tactical and strategic preparation of the opponent's players in the Weiqi League are mainly focused on the players themselves and their coaches. And this kind of analysis and preparation is often based on feelings and is not completely accurate.

"As the exposure of the Weiqi League has increased this year, the commercial atmosphere has gradually become stronger, and various sponsors have begun to increase their investment, some teams have begun to pay attention to the pre-match analysis and preparation in the past - our Jianghan team is one of them.

"After I entered the professional world, I found that I was better at off-game analysis and preparation than at competitions. So with the recommendation of Yu Qingguang 9th dan and Li Wangyuan 8th dan, I successfully joined the Jianghan team as a substitute player. In fact, my main job was to help the coach collect data and formulate strategies before the game, and then make summaries after the game.

“In fact, although I can’t play as a main player often, I still feel very lucky to be able to participate in the competition among top players in this way!

"I didn't expect that I would have the chance to play against Rui Zhao in the Weiqi League...even though I got beaten pretty badly!"

"Didn't you prepare some tactics to target Sister Rui Zhao?" Hua Ran joked.

"Ah, I've prepared it!"

Cheng Yuyang scratched his head slightly:
"It's just for Park Min-yeol 9th ​​Dan...

“But who would have thought that he would directly suggest a team race… No, the team directly decided to race horses!

"If I go on my own, I'll have no chance, so it's useless..."

"I seem to have heard some crucial information!"

Hua Ran raised his eyebrows jokingly:
“However, there’s nothing shameful about losing to Sister Rui Zhao!

"Anyway, three world champions, Li Junyan, Xu Xiangheng and Xiong Siyi, have all done it! And they did it very cleanly!

"Next... we'll see how Zhu Yuanjun, who once said that Sister Rui Zhao 'still has a gap to reach the level of a ninth dan', performs!

“The game has already started, let’s get into the game.

"In this game, Rui Zhaojie is the main player playing away from home, so she naturally plays black.

"After the opening, she chose to open with a small eye on the top, while Zhu Yuanjun 9th Dan responded with... eh?"

When Zhu Yuanjun's fourth move appeared on the board, the host Hua Ran couldn't help but pause for a moment.

Cheng Yuyang, who was standing by, couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly when he saw this move:
“What happened is…
