"Hmm... Akiyama, she's too relaxed!"
At 2:20 pm on May 8, in the Japanese team's temporary combat meeting room at the Lotte Hotel in Capital City.
The leader of the Japanese team in the Lakeside Cup this time looked at the live broadcast of the self-combat commentary of his Akiyama 2nd Section on the tablet, and couldn't help but complain a little:
"After the game yesterday, After such an unbecoming act in front of so many media cameras, it was Uesaka who finally dragged her back.
"As a result, I just flew back to China this morning and couldn't wait to broadcast yesterday's incident in the afternoon!" Self-combat commentary on chess!
"The explanation was just an explanation, and it didn't look like a chess player should!
" As a result, she was smiling the whole time, and from time to time she would excitedly pick up a baby, lie down on the bed behind the chair, and start rolling around! How unbecoming it is to have no shame of losing in a chess game! "
"Vice Chairman, don't be so strict...
"I looked at the comments on the barrage, everyone thinks they are very cute!"
Natsukawa Aoi, who was also watching Akiyama Kanako's live broadcast on a tablet, spoke to the juniors:
"As you know, Kanako's performance has been improving since she started pushing Rui Zhao last year. It's obvious that her idol has given her the motivation to make further progress!
"This time she got the chance to compete with Rui Zhao in an official competition. I can understand my wish if I get excited...
"What's more, aren't you actively watching her live broadcast..."
"Ah this..."
Tadao Sato was speechless for a moment, but he soon understood He sighed and said with slightly red cheeks:
"I, I'm just afraid that some of her outrageous actions will affect the reputation of the chess academy!"
"That's it..."
Natsukawa Aoi smiled slightly, but did not expose Sato's statement:< br>
“However, I think It’s really a good thing that we have more excellent and likeable chess players like Rei-chan and Kanako in our country.
“In this society, it is considered easier to achieve than what is expected. Male and female players are naturally better at attracting attention.
"When I was at my peak, my popularity was no worse than Master Boguang.
"The same goes for China. It is clear that Lei Qi and Sun Yi's recent overall performance is still better than that of Rui Zhao, but in terms of national status, I'm afraid The difference is two orders of magnitude.
“I think... more female chess players can be inspired by the celebrity Rui Zhao and achieve better results, even comparable to men. This will actually help alleviate the dilemma of the development of our chess in China. Great benefits!
“After experiencing this Huaying Celebrity Competition, you should know this. ”
“Well...
"That's what I said..."
Vice Chairman Chunan Sato pondered for a while, seeming to feel something, but still said respectfully:
"But after the tragic defeat, Akiyama You should still pay attention to your emotional attitude!
“The winning rate dropped to single digits after only persisting in 67 hands. The final game was only 125 hands, and Rui Zhao only used nine minutes of retention time!
"With this gap, I guess she might not be able to win even if she is given two sons by Rui Zhao! In the end, she looks heartless..."
"Oops! What you said... I'm even stressed!"
Xia Chuankui teased a little, and at the same time raised his chin towards the big screen that no one was looking at:
"Look at Zheng Caixi today, she is playing very seriously, but doesn't Rui Zhao still play a chess move in an average of ten seconds without any changes?
"And look at the winning rate curve... Nothing has changed!
“I even caught the dragon in 51 moves! It was much faster than Kanako yesterday! It’s just that the throw was far less refreshing than Kanako’s...
"Ah! I just made the move!
"It's true that the board is almost twenty moves short of winning. It's almost time to throw it. It's too ugly to finish it!
“Uh, where did you just say...?
“Oh! To be honest, I'm probably not stronger than Zheng Caixi right now, and I won't be any different from her tomorrow when I play...
"So, after I lose tomorrow, please tell me. Have mercy!”
"Well...
"I, I understand. "
Seeing Tadao Sato respond awkwardly, Sister Natsukawa stood up, stretched her body a little, and expressed her attitude to the leader: "Thank you, Vice Chairman, for your understanding. We will follow the plan. , I will play tomorrow!
“I hope that after two and a half years, I won’t make the current Zhaojun too boring!”
…
…
Hmm…it seems…
Is she starting to feel bored? !
Otherwise it wouldn’t be so bad!
At 8pm on May 9th, in a room at the Lotte Hotel in Shoucheng.
Xu Nanying, who just turned eighteen not long ago, looked at the 89th move she had just made and couldn't help but sigh in her heart with complicated emotions.
Today’s Lakeside Cup, the one from Japan who challenged Chinese celebrity Zhaojun was the best in Japanese women’s history, Xia Chuankui, who had ended Rui Zhao’s seven-game winning streak in the previous Lakeside Cup.
But...two and a half years have passed.
Even if the former leader of the Japanese women's chess world relied on the targeted tactics summed up by the chess academy's emergency mobilization, in the end, she only narrowly defeated the "future number one woman" by a mere half-eye!
Nowadays, time has passed, and the two people who were still half-decided at the beginning are now completely different!
As Xia Chuankui gets older, she has given up all the female stream titles in the country. And the second-stage Chinese beauty now has the reputation of "Celebrity Zhaojun", and even the men in the country are afraid of her!
Almost everyone knows that this game, like the previous three games, will basically be a one-sided game.
As expected, the winning rate of Natsukawa Aoi, who plays White, has been declining since the beginning of the chess game. However, as a balanced chess player, she did not take the initiative to provoke disputes, so she made great progress in the speed of joining the chess, and she lasted until The winning rate of 81 hands has just dropped to single digits - although it is a very typical crushing game if there is a 100-hand solitaire!
However, as the saying goes, every gain must come with a loss. The boring chess game finally seemed to make Queen Zhao lose her temper.
After gaining an obvious advantage, Black started to use strength in two consecutive moves at 87 and 89. Regardless of the threat of White's cutting off the return route, he forced the white chess to pull out the flowers in the air!
White counterattacks and tries to kill, but Black's winning rate suddenly drops back to 78%!
But...even though the winning rate dropped, the target difference given by the AI did not drop but increased!
This shows that although the AI believes that Black should "win without causing trouble", it is optimistic about Zhaojun's judgment of attack and kill, and believes that Black has a combat advantage here!
You know, this game of chess Rui Zhao is the same as the previous games, a move in less than ten seconds!
As a result, in such a short period of time, she actually made an extremely bold decision that was in line with the AI's judgment!
The following facts also verified this judgment!
The life-and-death stranglehold between the two sides on the upper left eventually formed a very heavy battle against the white chess piece, putting great pressure on Natsukawa Aoi, who was starting to count down!
Under the constant threat of robbery, Xia Chuankui, who seemed to have planned to accept a minor official like Zheng Caixi and then vote for a son, was completely manipulated!
Seeing that winning this battle would cost a lot, Sister Xia Chuan was forced to admit defeat early. In the end, Rui Zhao only had thirteen minutes left to save!
Tsk...
She is indeed the Chinese queen who forced Lin Ruixin to an emotional breakdown on the spot!
Xu Nanying, who was about to take the stage tomorrow, couldn't help but secretly say something.
I think back in 2023, when the Dongjiang team offered to compensate her so that she could take the opportunity to participate in the Lakeside Cup qualifiers to withdraw from the team so that Rui Zhao could take the opportunity to join, although Xiao Nanying agreed, she still felt in her heart But he was quite unconvinced. Since then, I have been studying hard and practicing hard, hoping that one day I can clear my name. Now she has grown into the leader of a new generation of South Korean female chess players.
Unfortunately, there are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the world.
Facing the current Zhaojun who has been devastated since the beginning of the game, no matter how ambitious he is, Xu Nanying has to weigh the reality.
She... is indeed so strong that she cannot be seen from the perspective of a female chess player!
Xu Nanying lowered her eyes and thought quietly.
However... the victory of chopping up melons and vegetables along the way may have made her a little paralyzed.
She bets so fast and boldly, and I am good at judging the situation during the layout stage...
Maybe, if I can survive until the middle of the game without falling behind obviously...
Maybe I can wait for an opportunity?
