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

"Wenjie, how is it?
"Is Lei Qi still in a stable condition?!"

Five minutes later, in a corner of the players' rest area at the Zhongjing International Conference Center.

Seeing his assistant coming back, Shang Chaotian, Lei Qi's teacher, quickly asked about the student's situation.

For Shang Qiwang, Rui Zhao’s live broadcast just now could be described as “the pot comes from the sky while you are sitting at home”. He subconsciously wanted to hide it from Lei Qi until all his games were over.

But as soon as the idea of ​​"hiding it from Lei Qi" came into his mind, Shang Chaotian immediately had a sense of déjà vu that startled him. This made the chairman of the chess association quickly give up the idea and instead asked his deputy to go over in advance to give the students a shot of prevention, so as to avoid another explosion at an inappropriate time.

Lu Wenjie shrugged helplessly:
“It would be a lie to say that it has no impact at all…

"Lei Qi, who just watched the live slicing, was obviously a little excited. He even almost wanted to find Rui Zhao to argue with him!"

"Ah this..."

Shang Chaotian looked worried upon hearing this - he was worried that this "unexpected disaster" would affect the competitive state of his young leader.

But Lu Wenjie immediately continued:
"But... in my opinion it's not bad!
“Although he was a little bit overwhelmed when he just watched the live slice, he quickly readjusted himself.

"I just saw him being interviewed by a reporter and asked this question. He was very positive and full of energy, as if he was determined to defeat Liu Shixian and go to the finals to settle the score with Rui Zhao! I guess there's nothing to worry about!"

"Ah... that's good!"

Shang Chaotian heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this, and then smiled bitterly:
"Sure enough, the children are trustworthy now!"

"That's not the way it should be!"

Lu Wenjie followed with a joke:
"Just like Rui Zhao, didn't he almost mess up his own people's mental state just now?"

"Hey, this girl's style is just like that, there's no way to change it!"

Shang Chaotian shook his head and waved his hands:

"What's more, putting aside the series of personal accidents she caused, this girl's role in promoting and popularizing Go and improving the competition system is simply amazing!

"I just received a message from Xiao Ai. With Rui Zhao winning two gold medals in a row and making great progress in the men's individual competition, the Zhao Miao Cup they organized has received a lot of attention!
"Not only are all the 16 teams' investment invitations now fully booked, but a bunch of companies are even asking us if we will expand the scale of the event next year so that we can expand the team and ask them to pay for sponsorship!"

"Not only Japan and South Korea want to send teams to participate in the next Zhao Miao Cup, but even domestic sponsors want to expand their teams?"

Hearing this, Lu Wenjie blinked in surprise, and then couldn't help but sigh:

"It was totally unthinkable before that a juvenile Go tournament could have such a huge influence!

"We really have to thank Miss Rui Zhao!
“When I first saw her on TV, I felt she was an inspiration.

"But I really didn't expect that she could do this..."

"Who says it isn't?"

Shang Chaotian on the side also nodded and agreed:

"Tomorrow's quarterfinal match will attract unprecedented attention in Japan!

"I heard that the Dongying Chess Institute has applied to the organizing committee to let Uesaka Rei go there as a temporary staff member to record the scores! They have also organized a special VIP commentary session!"

"As it should be! Wasn't it the same during the last Huaying Celebrity Competition?

"The Asian Games are attracting even more attention this time, so there's no reason not to strike while the iron is hot!"

Lu Wenjie replied:

“However, at the Huaying Celebrity Tournament at the end of last year, I played slow chess and failed to beat Rui Zhao at all.

"And this time, facing 'Rapid Athena' in the rapid chess arena...

"I'm afraid it will cause more headaches, right?"

...

…9:29 pm on September th, Chukyo City, Japan.

With the six rounds of the men's individual Go event at the Asian Games in Zhongjing coming to an end, the organizing committee announced the qualifying list and knockout matchups as soon as the two groups were ranked.

The specific match arrangements for the quarterfinals to be held on the morning of September 9 are as follows:
【Liu Shixian】 vs 【Qu Jundu】

【Lei Qi】 vs 【Park Min Yeol】

【Oryuho】 vs 【Ueno Torachiro】

【Ichijo Takuya】 vs 【Rui Zhao】

...

...

"Mr. Rui Zhao, how are you?

"It seems like this is the first time we've met since we became teammates!"

At 9:30 a.m. local time on September th, in a separate chess game room at the Zhongjing International Conference Center.

After the current number one Japanese chess player, Takuya Ichijo, took his seat, he smiled and greeted Zhaojun, a famous Chinese chess player who had already been sitting next to the chess table.

Ichijo doesn't understand Chinese, so it shouldn't be easy for the two of them to communicate.

However, there was a double agent codenamed "Chocolate Sauce" sitting next to him, so there was no need to worry about the language barrier.

However, after this was translated, the captain of the Pohu team on the opposite side was obviously a little surprised, as if he had completely forgotten that there was a top Japanese player as a substitute in his team. It was only after Uesaka Rei reminded him for a long time that Rui Zhao finally remembered and quickly responded:
"Ah! Long time no see, Ichijou!
"Um...I should say sorry!
"As the captain of the team, I have never greeted you! It is really presumptuous of me to come and ask for advice today!"

Rui Zhao's meaning was transmitted to Ichijo through Uesaka Rei's translation, and Ichijo responded in the same proper way:

"Ah, Rui Mingren, you are too polite!

"I heard that Gosei Ueno didn't let you enjoy the game a few days ago. Today, as another player participating in the competition for the host country, I will try my best and hope to play a game that satisfies both sides."

Although facing the contemporary Zhaojun who had been crushing everyone in the Asian Games without losing a single game in the fast chess competition, Takuya Ichijo, who had mostly played slow chess, knew that he had no chance of winning.

He lost to Liu Shixian, Xu Lifan and Lei Qi successively, and ranked fourth in the group with a record of only three wins and three losses, which also shows the objective fact that his slow chess level is stronger.

But for this game, Ichijo still showed his determination and momentum to give it his all.

My friend Ueno has always been rational and self-interested, and this is clear. And it is difficult to be too harsh on his personal choices.

But under the premise that the opponent had already complained about their team a little bit before, their rising star was writing down the score on the sidelines, and countless domestic and foreign media were paying attention to and reporting on this game...

Takuya Ichijo, a passionate chess player who holds the two crowns of [Go Saint] and [Meijin], cannot be cowardly at this moment. He must use this opportunity to show the style of his country's chess players!

Seeing such a statement, Rui Zhao naturally welcomed it and showed great interest on the spot.

"Okay, I'd love to!"

Seeing that the start time was approaching, both sides guessed who would go first. In the end, Rui Zhao played black and Takuya Ichijo played white.

It was half past nine in the morning. As the referee officially announced the start of the game, Rui Zhao made his move immediately after the greeting. The first move was at the small eye in the upper right corner.

When Ichijo saw this, he did not hesitate and directly hit the upper left small eye with his second move - giving up the diagonal and inviting the opponent to fight!
And how could a Chinese celebrity with the name of Sister Long avoid the other party's invitation to fight!
In the third move, the black chess piece landed directly in the diagonal!
The two sides started the game with a diagonal layout full of gunpowder!
The game then unfolded in the four corners one after another, and the incumbent celebrities of the two countries were very active in making their moves.

When the white chess piece made the 18th move at the upper left, aiming at attacking the two black pieces at the upper left, Rui Zhao ignored it and responded directly with a flying chess piece at the lower left, as if to show that if you can attack, then attack!
Takuya Ichijo, who had already burned his boats, didn't say anything and immediately chose the three-way pressure!
But who would have thought that Zhaojun still did not respond, and instead clamped her hand on her upper right arm, and they began to hurt each other!
Is this... underestimating the two black spots on the upper left?

He made a simple judgment, and then made another small move to temporarily control the two black pieces - since it has come to this, he must not interrupt the battle plan and must capture the two black pieces first.

But just when Ichijo thought that his opponent was about to seize other large areas of the field or control the white pieces in the upper right corner to seek a transition, the famous Chinese player Zhaojun acted decisively!
Three roads, one room jump!

Rui Zhao faced off against the numerous white pieces around him on the upper left and began to forcibly maneuver his pieces. His dominance was evident on the chessboard!
