MTL - Go Legend-Chapter 869 Or externally considerate

   Chapter 869 It's still a plug-in caring

   After that incident, Li Xiangping, whose reputation was greatly damaged, naturally kept a low profile, and he began to hold his tail honestly.

  Well, strictly speaking, Li Xiangping has always been very low-key after his rebirth. The fame he has now is not gained by hype, but by accumulating one champion after another.

Just because he is not only good at Go, Li Xiangping is also a little handsome. At the same time, he is still so young and his family is so rich. In addition, he was also electrocuted and participated in a "big national player". He has more fame than most athletes, and also makes this peach news toss so much.

   Of course, in fact, the melon eaters are the most fond of the new and hate the old. Li Xiangping's peach-colored news has been buzzing for ten days, but as Yaya helped him speak, it is more important that everyone did not see new plots appear.

And Li Xiangping, who has graduated from university, is now like an office worker. He honestly goes to the chess academy to check in and report every day, so that when new social hotspots appear, the masses of melon eaters rush to eat fresher melons. Things finally slowed down.

   During the period when Li Xiangping was holding his tail between his tails, of course, the world chess world was as lively as ever. And with Li Xiangping's launch of regular competitions, on the surface, the competition in the entire world of chess looks more intense than it was a few years ago.

  Erjie Kong has become the strongest player in the limelight this year after winning the "Fujitsu Cup". Now, together with Gu Dali, he has carried the banner of Chinese Go in the international arena.

  This year, China's Gu Da and Kong Er, South Korea's Big and Little Li, and Japan's Zhang Xu, these five players have the best records in this year's World Championships, and are called "the new top five in the world of chess" by the media.

Well, actually speaking, Zhang Xu's record is still much inferior to the other four, but in last year's "Special Ten Fans", he beautifully beat Li Xiangping in one set and won the world championship. United have only one of two wins.

It is precisely because of this bonus, coupled with the current Zhang Xu, that he doesn't seem to have any obvious hard skills. For example, when playing against the other four, although he still loses a lot, he seems to be able to win. , Whether it is against China's Gu Da Kong Er, or against South Korea's big and small Li, he now has a winning record.

   may be precisely for this reason, making the current Zhang Xu tied with the other four.

  The time has come to September 2009 slowly. At the end of this month, this year's "Special Juban" will reignite the war again.

   One day in mid-September, Li Xiangping still went to the Chinese Chess Academy to check in according to the habit of the recent period. On the first floor of the Chess Academy, he was stopped by Zhang Wendong's 9th Duan and the head coach Yu Bin:

   "Xiang Ping, come here."

   "Mr. Zhang, Teacher Yu, what's the matter?"

   glanced at Li Xiangping, and Zhang Wendong handed over a piece of paper with a smile:

   "Xiang Ping, this year's special tenth, the composition of the world team has been basically finalized, you can take a look for yourself."

"Oh."

  Li Xiangping took a quick look at what Zhang Jiuduan handed over.

Compared with the previous two years, the composition of this year's world alliance has changed a lot. In this list, Li Xiangping did not see Li Canghao's 9th dan, Chang Hao's 9th dan, and Zhou Heyang, who played in the previous year's 9th dan. And the ninth section of Luo Xihe also did not appear in this list.

  Li Xiangping understands this.

Because these guys are all post-70s chess players, they are at least half a generation older than Li Xiangping in terms of seniority. Considering that this year's rule is "first, second, first", it means that among the 10 games, there are several games. It is to let two pieces of chess, so it seems a bit inappropriate to let these old chess players play.

Fortunately, in addition to these old chess players born in the 1970s, Li Xiangping saw Gu Dali, Kong Erjie, Li Shishi, Cui Du, Pu Yongxun, Zhang Xujing, Shan Yutai, and women in the world of chess on the list. The first master Rui Weiwei is the ninth dan.

   In addition, Chen Yaoyue, who played last year, appeared in this list again this year.

  With such a strong lineup, of course, it can still ensure the high standard and gold content of this game.

   But Li Xiangping looked at it, but he found that something was wrong, because he counted and counted, but only counted the names of 9 chess players.

   "Huh, what's the matter? There are only 9 this year..."

   "Hehe, the last place will be selected through selection this time."

"what?!"

   It should have been foreseen that Li Xiangping would have this doubt, so Yu Bin Jiuduan patiently explained to Li Xiangping:

   The most direct reason why there is a selection quota is related to this "first two first" competition system.

   If it is nine games, then there is nothing to say about the "first two first" competition system. It happens to be 6 games and 3 games with 2 points.

   However, this is a chess game, so what rules are implemented in the extra game? Is to let first or let 2 children?

   This year's sponsors have spoken, and their strong request is to let 2 children. That is to say, among the 10 games, 6 games are handicap and 4 games are handicap with 2 pieces.

Since it is the sponsor who speaks, then the chess academy still has to listen, so the management of the chess academy decided after deliberation that if there is an extra game, then simply organize the young chess players of the national team to have a selection. Whoever wins will be selected for the World Federation. team.

   At the same time, it was strictly stipulated that this chess player who was selected into the World League through selection, he was the pioneer, and he went on the court to play the first chess game with Li Xiangping, and the chess share of this chess game was to let 2 pieces.

"Xiangping, in addition to this big change, other rules have also undergone some minor revisions. For example, in the first two sessions, the league's playing order was more flexible, and it was all discussed by everyone. Just let you know in an hour, but this year will be different."

   Yu Bin Jiuduan paused and continued:

"Considering that this year is the first two first, this discussion may not be so easy to discuss, so we discussed with the sponsors, and the order of appearances this year can simply be decided by drawing lots. According to the arrangement, this year's first set, third set, third In the sixth set and the ninth set, these 4 sets will be handicap 2, so whoever draws is who, such as Gu Dali or Li Shishi, they have no privileges this year. It's 1, 3, 6, and 9 sets, so if there should be 2 points, then 2 points should be played, and no one will negotiate with them this year."

  Li Xiangping listened for a while, thinking that this is of course the best way. The purpose of playing this special tenth game is to fight dogs in the future, not to really guide chess. In this case, the arrangement of the chess institute is just right.

   After talking about the big changes in these rules, a few people talked about other things.

In addition to the rules, the biggest change this year is, of course, the change of sponsors, from last year's "Three Famous Buildings Cup" to this year's "Three Famous Mountains Cup", but with the successful experience of holding the competition last year, other changes are not big.

The game is still divided into 5 stations, and each station has 2 games of chess. The beginning and the end are still in the ancient city of Fenghuang in Hunan Province. After the first two games in Fenghuang, the second leg is Huangshan in Hui Province, followed by Gansu. Lushan in the source, then Yandang Mountain in Zhejiang, and finally back to Hunan Province to play the last two games of chess.

   The entire competition spans about 20 days, from late September to mid-October.

   After chatting with Zhang Jiuduan and Yu Jiuduan, Li Xiangping was still keeping his own way.

   For the next week or so, Li Xiangping still appeared at the Chess Academy on time. For nothing else, he just wanted to observe the trials up close to see who his next opponent might be.

   But when he saw the schedule of the trials, he was shocked.

Because when Yu Bin told him at that time, the players who participated in the selection would be the young players of the national team, so it is not surprising that Tang Xuanzong and Shiyue participated in the competition. It is not surprising that Zhou Xiaoyang participated in the selection.

   But after looking at the match table, Li Xiangping actually saw a lot of "overaged chess players".

   "Brother Niu" Qiu Jun signed up to participate, "Hero of China" Hu Yaoyu signed up, and even "Brother Calm" Xie He, who currently ranks third in the ranking, also came.

  Li Xiangping was a little moved.

   Of course, more is proud.

   Heart said, don't watch my buddy make such a big peach news and cause reputation damage, but at least in the field of Go, it is still recognized by everyone.

  You see so many masters, all they are fighting for is a chance to play 2-piece with themselves. If this is not the fact that their power is deeply ingrained, how could so many people sign up.

  Since others valued it, Li Xiangping certainly valued it himself, so in the next few days, Li Xiangping completely calmed down and began to seriously prepare for the next game with Lao Shi. The two prepared at the rhythm of one game of chess a day.

   It should be that the previous incidents did have a great impact, so that in the first few days, Li Xiangping could not find his state at all, and he was beaten up by Lao Shi in the daily training games—

  Poorly on the normal 19-way chessboard, Li Xiangping would have had a slight disadvantage, and his match against Lao Shi has not yet reached a 50% winning rate.

   However, in the first 5 days of this training, Li Xiangping came to a 0-5, and could not find the rhythm of the game at all.

  It's okay, in the training game on the 6th day, Li Xiangping always won the next game in a thrilling way--

   In fact, during the game, Li Xiangping felt that Lao Shi was suspected of throwing water. He made a mistake when he had more than 130 moves in the overall game, a low-level mistake that was obviously not his level, which allowed Li Xiangping to win.

   But despite this, Li Xiangping was very happy, and he felt that his state had recovered.

   After the game, Li Xiangping did not ask himself whether the plug-in had released water, because he knew very well that even if Lao Shi did release water, he would not admit it.

And his suspected water release this time is indeed effective. Since winning that game, Li Xiangping seems to have regained his state all at once. Therefore, in the next training, although Li Xiangping is still slightly disadvantaged, his chess The content is gradually enriched.

   In late September, when the time came soon, Li Xiangping was about to leave for Hunan Province.

   "Haha Ding'an brother, let's give and give, okay, let's go here today, let's go to the chess academy to see which chess player passed the preliminaries."
