   Chapter 863 Korea Three Days

"Hey, this person is famous for his cosmic flow, and his mid-bellied feeling is indeed rare among human beings, but I personally think that this kind of warfare also restricts him. Compared with this hand, it is obvious that the fat horn on the upper left is bigger, but he is still Keeping an eye on the middle belly and looking forward to the appearance on the right side, this has lost the way of nature, brother Ding'an, do you think it is true or not?"

"Ha ha."

   The game has progressed to more than 80 hands. When Li Xiangping saw Mr. Wu Gong's next move that he thought was a problem, he stopped paying attention to this game--

With Mr. Wu Gong's current age and competitive state, under normal circumstances, he should have played against Kong Erjie, who was at his peak, not to mention why he had a problem hand earlier, so Li Xiangping thought that this game of chess should not be possible. So much suspense, he started to watch the other two games.

  Li Xiangping first watched the match of Li Shishi VS Zhou Heyang. The progress of this chess game was a lot slower, and the players there were already 100 moves faster, but the generals here have only passed 70 moves.

   Not only that, but after Li Xiangping judged the situation, he felt that Zhou Heyang, who was holding white, was in a good situation at the 9th dan, and the disk was about 2 to 3 goals ahead.

However, when Li Xiangping observed the game between the two sides, he found that Zhou Jiuduan had used the one-minute delay time 7 times, while Xiao Li had only used it 2 times, and the pattern of this game was rather chaotic, not the kind that was relatively stable. With the layout of the floor, Li Xiangping felt that this game of chess could be put on hold for a while—

   This is exactly the position that Xiao Li is best at, so in this situation in a match against him, no one else in the chess world except himself is sure to win him firmly.

  Li Xiangping finally turned his attention to the Japan-Korea war, Japan's Yuuki Satoshi 9dan against South Korea's Kang Dongrun.

Yuuki Satoshi Jiudan is a chess player of the same era as Yida Keiki. He was known as "East Yida, Nishi Yucheng" in Japan. It is said that he is not too young, but I don't know why, it may be because he is on the international schedule. Because of the few appearances, Li Xiangping always feels like a rookie, but his quick chess skills are not bad, and he has also won the runner-up in the "Asian Cup" in real history.

   As for South Korea's Kang Dongrun, in real history, he is the "one champion" of Korean Go, and the only world champion was won by a senior Lee in a certain year's "Fujitsu Cup".

  Li Xiangping glanced at it, this game is also about a hundred moves, and it is a standard floor layout. The situation of Yucheng Cong, who is in black, is slightly better, but it is not a very safe advantage.

  The "Asian Cup" is a fast game. About an hour later, the results of the first game came out. Last year's new world champion Kong Erjie defeated the veteran Takemiya Masaki 9dan in the middle game and entered the semi-finals for the first time.

   By this time, the other two chess games have also reached the critical point of victory and defeat. What is interesting is that the two Korean chess players are actually at a disadvantage at this time, facing the danger of being wiped out in the first round.

   "Oops, what a pity!…"

As Li Xiangping said such a sentence in the viewing room-Zhou Heyang made a mistake at a critical time in the ninth stage, no, it cannot be said to be a serious mistake, but he was soft at the critical time and let go when the overall situation was over 140. Chance to win.

In fact, even if he didn't make a final move, he still has a slight advantage objectively. It's a pity that the "change of tone" in Go is not just casual talk. The more brave.

   Less than half an hour later, when the game of chess approached 200 moves, Li Xiangping stopped watching the game--

   At this time, Xiao Li has completely reversed the situation, and winning is only a matter of time.

   It was almost 5:00 p.m., and the first round of 3 sets was all over. The result was that Li Shishi reversed Zhou Heyang, and Yuki Satoshi defeated Jiang Dongrun, who was still relatively young, and both entered the semi-finals.

   After the game, Li Xiangping did not leave, because the second round of draws was about to take place.

   The schedule of this "Asian Cup" is as follows: on the first day, the first round of 3 games will be played, followed by the semifinals on the second day.

   And the semi-finals will not be held at the same time. One in the morning and one in the afternoon will be played in the studio of Korean Go TV.

   After the semi-finals are over, there will be a day off, and the finals will be held in the afternoon of the next day.

At 6:30 p.m. Korean time, Li Xiangping and Kong Erjie, accompanied by Yu Bin's 9th dan, attended the semi-final draw ceremony together. As a result, Li Xiangping encountered Japanese veteran Yuki Satoshi, and South Korean Li Shishi was drawn by Kong Erjie. .

   There is no doubt that this is of course a good sign for Li Xiangping, because no matter how good Yuuki's 9-dan quick chess is, it is still easier to deal with than Li Shishi.

   After the opponent was drawn, the game time was drawn again. As a result, Yuki Satoshi went up to the ninth dan and drew the "afternoon"--

  Li Xiangping and his game will be played in the studio tomorrow at 2pm.

   "Hey, that's fine, I can sleep late tomorrow..."

   However, what Li Xiangping did not expect was that the lazy sleep he expected did not exist at all.

   After dinner, when Li Xiangping returned to his room, he actually felt a little bored.

  This is a foreign country and the language is not fluent, so naturally I can’t watch TV.

   Secondly, tomorrow's opponent is weak, which makes Li Xiangping's preparations unimpressive. After briefly analyzing Yucheng Jiudan's victory today with Lao Shi, Li Xiangping is no longer in the mood to look at his chess records.

   to drop by outside? This doesn't seem to be suitable. First of all, Zhou Heyang's place is definitely not suitable. He has just lost a game and is licking his wound, so a fool would visit his room at this time.

   In addition, Kong Erjie is also not suitable. He has drawn Xiao Li today. It is conceivable that he must be preparing for the battle carefully, so unless he actively invites it, it is not convenient to go to his place.

   After thinking about it, only Yutou was left.

   Yu Jiuduan is born in the 60s, and there is a clear generation gap with Li Xiangping. Under normal circumstances, Li Xiangping would not go to his door, but isn't it too boring? So around 8 pm, Li Xiangping decided to go out for a walk.

   But just as he got up, his phone rang. Li Xiangping picked up the phone and saw that it was Miss Bai's.

"Hey?"

   "Xiang Ping," Miss Bai's voice was even mixed with a hint of joy: "Do you know where I am now?"

   "Huh? Where are you?"

   "Now in the same city as you."

   "Ah!?" Li Xiangping raised his voice a little: "You are also in Korea? In Seoul? Why did you come here too."

   "I'm the brand spokesperson of LV. I came here to attend an event. I just flew over from Xiangjiang in the afternoon."

   "Oh, why didn't I hear you say you were coming to Seoul."

   "Hee hee, they want to surprise you, you didn't know I was coming, but I already knew that you would be playing in Korea these days. By the way, where are you now?"

   "I'm at the XXX Hotel." After Li Xiangping reported the name of the hotel, he asked back:

   "What about you, where are you now?"

   After the other side also reported a hotel name, Li Xiangping didn't know what to say—

   You must know that this is a foreign country, so unless he brings an interpreter or someone leads the way, Li Xiangping can't go anywhere at all.

Well, although he came to Korea to compete, the delegation will definitely be equipped with an interpreter, either from China or temporarily from the embassy to help, but the problem now is: he dares to let the interpreter lead him to Miss Bai ?

   But what Li Xiangping did not expect was that he was helpless here, but Miss Bai seemed to be prepared:

   "Xiang Ping, it shouldn't be convenient for me to go to your place now, right? If you look at it like this, you can wait patiently there first, and I will send someone to pick you up."

   "Send someone? Who do you send?"

   "Assistant."

   "Assistant, assistant? Is the assistant you sent reliable?"

   "Don't worry, it's absolutely reliable."

   Li Xiangping could hear it, and the opposite seemed a little angry: "Xiangping, just give me a word, if someone comes to pick you up, would you like to come over."

   "I would, of course I would..."

Li Xiangping thought about it too. Miss Ren Bai has worked so hard to surprise herself again, and she has arranged such details. If she is still too cowardly to go, let alone Miss Bai will look down on herself. Even Li Xiangping would look down on himself.

   So after putting down the phone, Li Xiangping began to wait in the room. After waiting for about 40 minutes, his phone rang again, and Li Xiangping saw that it was the phone number agreed with Miss Bai.

   So Li Xiangping was ready to go out. Even at this time, Li Xiangping was very cautious. He went to say hello to Yutou, saying that he was bored and wanted to "walk outside".

After more than 40 minutes, Li Xiangping came to another hotel in Seoul. Li Xiangping saw that this hotel was much more advanced than the one he stayed in. He lived in a four-star hotel, but this hotel was considered super-star among five stars. luxury.

  “Xiang Ping…”

   When Miss Bai's assistant led Li Xiangping to a corner of the hotel, Miss Bai rushed towards him.

   Li Xiangping was actually a little excited. He felt a strange excitement, but after a short intimacy, Li Xiangping felt that he was still very awake:

   "Ok, don't stay here, go, go to your room..."

  Unfortunately, it was already a little late.

   Of course Li Xiangping didn't know that because of the business event that Miss Bai attended, the hotel happened to be haunted by paparazzi.

   is a Korean paparazzi.

   And when he got off the car just now, he was actually noticed by two Korean paparazzi.

  Korean paparazzi: "Ah? That man, why do I look like a Chinese monster."

   Korean Paparazzi B: "What Chinese monster?"

   Korean Paparazzi A is obviously a chess fan. He glanced at Paparazzi B with contempt:

"Don't you know Li Xiangping of China, the absolute king of the Go world, the existence of a contemporary chess master, not only that, this person is also a super rich man, it is said that his personal property can be ranked in the top 10 outside the Republic of Korea ... Strange, isn't the Asian Cup held at the Chess Academy, how could he come here..."

   So, driven by curiosity, the two Korean paparazzi happened to see Li Xiangping and Miss Bai's intimacy.

   Paparazzi B didn't feel much.

   However, the Korean paparazzi had their eyes shining at that time.

   Li Xiangping was naturally ignorant of this.

After    and Miss Bai had a warm night, Li Xiangping returned to the arena refreshed, and after the reconciliation of yin and yang, his state was bursting, and 97 moves forced Yuuki Congruenta to admit defeat.

   On the other side, Kong Erjie, who was indeed at the peak, also defeated Xiao Li in the middle game.

  Two Chinese chess players meet in the final.
