Go: Is the portable old man the nine-time champion?

Chapter 419 First Place in Comprehensive Chess and Card Games

Streamer's name: Yi Zheng, the Great Chess Player
Room Name: Only Go (Weiqi)

In this live-streaming space called "Only Play Go," a man was clapping away at the microphone in front of him while keeping his eyes glued to the camera on the screen, muttering to himself as if he were testing the equipment.

"Hello hello".

"Moses Moses."

"Can you hear?"

Yi Zheng patted the microphone as he looked at the camera in front of him. He was stunned when he saw the screen suddenly filled with a dense, overwhelming number of comments. He hadn't expected so many people to come so quickly as soon as he went live.

This was his first live stream, and he hadn't given any prior notice. Although Yi Zheng had a fan group, he only used a secondary account to participate in the gossip, and no one knew it was him.

I definitely can't expose my alternate account, otherwise I might get kicked out of my own fan group, because that's what happened to my main account.

As a result, without any prior notice, the number of viewers had already reached several thousand as soon as the broadcast started.

Don't be fooled by the seemingly small number of people. On normal online live streaming platforms, many internet celebrities with millions of followers may only have a few hundred people watching their live streams in real time.

To be honest, if a live stream can attract more than 10,000 viewers in real time, that's definitely a top-tier achievement for a live streamer.

Not to mention that Yi Zheng has just started his live stream, and there are probably a lot of people who don't even know he's going to start streaming yet and will soon flood in.

As for why others know this is Yi Zheng's account, it's because there's no AI face-swapping technology available now, and when you become a professional player, the chess academy will help you verify all your official social media accounts.

After all, there are just too many scammers these days, or rather, there are too many people being scammed and not enough scammers to go around. Anyone with a bit of fame is often impersonated by others who use fake accounts to scam people.

Ultimately, this matter may have nothing to do with you, but if someone uses your name, they will blame you later.

Therefore, having an official account, even if it doesn't post anything, and simply stating that there is only one account, is a kind of disclaimer.

However, most people have multiple accounts in addition to their official accounts. After all, there are just too many police officers on duty these days, and the requirements for public figures are getting higher and higher. It's no longer the primitive era of the internet where everyone could directly spew profanities on their official accounts.

Not to mention that some things can only be posted on alternate accounts. For example, some people may seem to be on good terms with you while smiling, but then they may turn around and say on their alternate accounts that the bastard's winning streak has finally ended and send their blessings!

Yi Zheng's live stream today wasn't a spur-of-the-moment decision, because there really wasn't much to do at home on New Year's Eve. He had already finished his New Year's Eve dinner at 2 PM. Although the TV was on and the Spring Festival Gala was being broadcast live, who in any respect would watch the Spring Festival Gala?

I originally wanted to have a great New Year's battle with Master Ke, but Master Ke said that we've been playing for three years, can't we enjoy it a bit? It's time to teach you the real Go!
Live chess game!

But Cyber ​​Go.

Since there's no Teamfight Tactics in this world, Yi Zheng can only resort to the traditional Dou Dizhu (a card game), since playing cards is also a traditional way for the national team to communicate in their dormitories.

Yi Zheng noticed the current real-time rankings displayed on the live stream screen right after he finished playing a game.

First place in overall card and board games.

"Wow, so many people! There are so many comments, I can't even keep up. And there are so many SC (spotted comments)!"

Yi Zheng was slightly surprised to see the screen full of bullet comments and eye-catching messages, because the borderline live streams he usually watched never had this many people.

Of course, Yi Zheng said he didn't want to watch these things at all, but he couldn't resist Old Ke's pleading on his lap, "Please let me watch some more, I can't live without long legs!" So Yi Zheng reluctantly watched these live streams with him.

With Ke Lao as the ultimate internet surfer, Yi Zheng can practically master all sorts of internet knowledge and memes. After all, Ke Lao would often chime in with his own words and explain things to him.

So, although it was his first time broadcasting, Yi Zheng didn't seem unfamiliar with the process. However, he was quite surprised that his live stream already had 5 viewers. After all, he had only been streaming for a few minutes and had just finished a game of Dou Dizhu.

In fact, the backend programmers of the live streaming website received the news as soon as Yi Zheng started broadcasting.

As one of the most popular sports stars this year, Yi Zheng had basically no live streaming on the internet before. The platform gave him a lot of support for his first live stream.

"Why did I start a live stream? Because I didn't have anything to do on New Year's Eve, so I thought I'd see how to set up this live stream and chat with everyone about it."

Yi Zheng couldn't help but read the eye-catching messages that filled the screen: "Happy New Year, Yi Bao! Could you send me a pair of your socks? I'd like to use them to make tea."

Seeing this eye-catching comment, Yi Zheng paused slightly and couldn't help but pinch his chin: "Hmm..."

Seeing Yi Zheng seemingly shocked by SC's abstract remarks, many people in the live chat started cursing.

[They're still just kids!]

[Having only ever known how to play Go since childhood, Yi Zheng had absolutely no idea that online games had become so abstract.]

【unbelievable! 】

[It's happening!]

[First rebellion of the new year!]

Many people were worried that Yi Zheng might be unfamiliar with the internet and didn't know how to reply. Yi Zheng's eyes darted around a few times before he said, "Socks."

I think your sock habit is like this: I usually dispose of my socks harmlessly by throwing them directly into the trash can.

So, if you want to use it, I think it might not be good for your health. I don't recommend using it to make tea, you know?

I wouldn't recommend using socks to make tea. Perhaps you need a tea bag, but I think there's something else that can replace that.

It's one of those tea bags, those tea strainer filters, you know? You might want to put tea leaves in that sock to brew tea like this, with that filter.

"I've been carrying it around, but I think this tea bag is better for you. I feel that other thing would suit you better than my socks."

[With a snap, it was blocked with one hand]

[Miraculous Hands]

[A brilliant idea comes from long deliberation]

Does Yi Zheng regret starting live streaming?

[Such a calm response]

[There was no refusal]

Wow, they even managed to get to the point about something serious!

Looking at Yi Zheng's serious reply, the viewers in front of the screen were momentarily unsure whether Yi Zheng didn't understand, or if it was too abstract, or how to put it.

Is this what they call innocence?
