Chapter 927 Continuing Liquidation
"…Hello everyone, welcome to tonight's 'Cui Cui Talk Show'!
“Before we start today’s show, let me ask you a question – have you heard of Go?

"Yes, it's the pronunciation of '碁' in Japanese, Go (ご), not the basic word we learned when we were one or two years old.

"Well... although I am indeed pessimistic about our basic education in North America, I am not pessimistic enough to ask everyone if they know the basic word 'go'... uh...

"Okay! How about we change the Chinese name to 'Weiqi' to differentiate it? I'm a little bit unconfident about the audience's ability to differentiate it...

"Uh no, I mean I'm afraid I'm a bit confused - no offence at all!
"Okay, let's get back to the point. Before this, I had only heard of the sport of Go when OMEGA GO came out.

"As a North American, I didn't understand how this game, which only uses black and white pieces, could be more complicated than chess? Could it be that our big company executives were using this to trick us in order to increase their stock prices?

"As we all know, the North American stock market is very volatile! I still remember the time when China released DeepFind and it destroyed a lot of our company's stocks - because I saw my beautiful blonde neighbor who invests in stocks on a certain website just a week later...

"Ahem! That... is a bit off topic!

“But now, I have to admit that Go is indeed a hotbed of big news.

“Everyone should have heard of the name Rui Zhao recently - if you haven’t, I suggest you send your phone to a mobile phone recycling center. I heard that some of Nokia’s old models can be sold at a high price in the collector’s market.

“She’s really super hot lately!!!

"As the central figure in the Olympic Council of Asia arbitration case, she is naturally very symbolic now.

"Liberals see her as a goddess who represents the embodiment of female wisdom, while conservatives think she is just a lucky vase.

"Not only have all of his past achievements been put under the microscope for scrutiny, but even his results in the slow chess competitions that were not part of the Asian Games arbitration incident have received attention from the entire network - the popularity is even higher than that of my favorite Taylor!
"To be honest, I am indignant about this: although Rui Zhao is very good at Go, but...

"So what?!
“Taylor sings beautifully too!
"What's more, my sweetheart's beauty is nowhere near hers... (Turning around to see Rui Zhao's photo on the screen)

"...

“…Uh…Hey, Tae Tae!
"I know you have always supported liberals and the advancement of women's rights. You definitely wouldn't mind me becoming a fan of Rui Zhao, right? I know you definitely agree!
"Ah yes! Today is a great day for us '20-day old Zhao fans'!

"And everyone who has paid attention knows that we Europeans and Americans are paying more attention to the final held in Pengze City, China, than the Chinese people - countless keyboard warriors' recent online breathing rights are all dependent on this game.

"Ten hours ago, Rui Zhao defeated the world's second-ranked Lei Qi with a total score of 2-1 in the Chinese Go Masters Tournament and successfully defended the title of [Master]! Once again, she proved the power of women in the Go arena!

"Unfortunately, this is a disaster for all conservatives!

"Previously, the conservatives were eager to prove that Rui Zhao was just a lucky fake, so they made a lot of sarcastic remarks when Rui Zhao lost the first game.

“Now that the dust has settled, it has indeed triggered a massive counterattack from the liberals.

"Rui Zhao not only remained undefeated in the fast chess games he was good at, but also defeated strong opponents in the slow chess games, leaving no room for the conservatives to regain their ground.

"Faced with the impressive record of this young Chinese girl, the conservatives who always said 'this is the truth' were completely unable to organize an effective resistance. This is truly unprecedented.

"Now the white men, who are at a complete disadvantage in the arguments, have no way to fight back and can only keep saying that Rui Zhao doesn't have a world championship, which makes them look very embarrassed.

"So today we can see that conservatives have been breaking through the Internet since this morning - the last time we saw such a large-scale breaking of defenses was when Emperor Trump was re-elected in 2024, but at that time it was the liberals who broke through the defense.

"I even saw someone online mocking the intelligence of East Asian men, saying how shameful it is that 700 to 800 million men can't even have sex with a little girl... Uh...

"That guy must know that almost all the people we send to participate in the International Mathematical Olympiad are of East Asian descent, right?!

“He can’t even pass the nerd test in school, but he actually mocks Asians… is he serious?!

"It's okay for us to compare obesity rates, but isn't it embarrassing to compare IQs?!!!

"However, this may just be the beginning of bad news for conservatives...

"As we all know, what is more painful for the conservatives than Rui Zhao defeating the male masters again to win the championship is probably Rui Zhao's 72 consecutive victories in the rapid chess arena." It was this brilliant record that directly triggered the arbitration incident of this Asian Games.

"A week later in Puju, South Korea, Rui Zhao, who easily won four consecutive victories in the first stage of the Nongshim Cup, will continue to accept challenges from players from Japan and South Korea.

"If Rui Zhao can continue to win, then the number 77 will replace the number 72 and become the latest conservative PTSD symbol... uh...

"I don't know if this is going to rub salt in the wound for Dallas Mavericks fans - most of the locals are conservative.

"Hmm... just thinking about it gives me double the joy!
"Ah, of course! Theoretically, the chess players from Ying and Han also have the possibility of ending Rui Zhao's miraculous winning streak, but... there's really no need to count on the men from these two countries!
"I'm even wondering if the upcoming humiliating defeat of Japan and South Korea will make Trump, the leader of the conservatives, withdraw his troops from Japan and South Korea in anger..."

……

"Ah this...

"Our loss of two games won't affect our national defense and diplomacy, right?
"I don't want to repay the favor!!!"

November 11th, the night after the Chinese Celebrity Tournament ended.

The capital city of South Korea, the South Korean Chess Institute.

Xu Xiangheng was halfway through watching the latest European and American talk show video that Li Junyan had just forwarded to him, and his expression was quite distorted.

Seeing that his juniors were a little PTSD about Athena, who had beaten him in the men's team finals of the Asian Games, Lao Li, as the chess player leader, quickly comforted him:
“Uh… it’s definitely a bit too much to say that it affects national defense and diplomacy. After all, this is just a comedy talk show.

"But if I must say, Rui Zhao has indeed caused a huge response in Europe, America and even the whole world! And it is the kind that cannot be stopped at all!

“You should also know that since the Asian Games arbitration incident, Rui Zhao has been the focus of the world’s attention.

"This time, she came back from a 1-2 deficit to successfully defend her title at the China Masters Tournament. This not only triggered a new round of condemnation and ridicule against the male national players in China, but also triggered a general reckoning of public opinion against conservatives by liberals abroad!
"Now the liberals want to press on with their victory, and the conservatives want to avenge their previous defeat. Both are in urgent need of further factual evidence.

"Under such circumstances, the sensitive international rapid chess tournament, the Nongshim Cup, has naturally become the next focus of attention.

“This time, the Nongshim Cup Chess Academy has received a lot of applications for coverage, and the broadcasting rights are selling like crazy!
“So… Xiangheng, Minyeol, you two should be prepared for the second stage of the Nongshim Cup starting on November 11th.

"Even if there is really no hope of winning, at least don't lose too badly and maintain the most basic dignity of men in the Republic of South Korea..."

"Uh……"

Xu and Pu, two members of the overseas branch of the Queen Bean Curd Group, looked at each other with indescribable embarrassment, their hearts filled with deep speechlessness towards their own stupid chess academy.

It's fine now, why not just suffer a short loss and a little pain?

Going through all the trouble of reporting and arbitration directly turned into long-term torture! Even if you are not careful, you will be blamed for the diplomatic incident!

But now that things have come to this, the two of them have nothing to refute and can only agree reluctantly.

At this moment, Park Min-yeol seemed to have thought of something and couldn't help asking:

"Well, didn't Xiao Liu mention this before..."

"It's impossible!"

Without waiting for the younger generation to finish speaking, Li Tingyan sighed and said:
"Although Xiao Liu mentioned it before, given the current situation...

"The chess academy will not allow him to play in the second stage early like last time."
