Chapter 24 The genius who works hard
“This Lei Qi... is really amazing!”
Unlike the secretiveness of a certain old bacon, after playing this handicap game , a Go girl from Dongjiang expressed heartfelt admiration for Lei Qi's strength.
She won the battle with Lei Qi just now - with a three-purpose advantage.
However, after winning, Rui Zhao did not feel any joy at all. On the contrary, he felt lingering fear.
"He is worthy of being the second-ranked master in the country in this world... The pressure when he just started chasing the chess was too scary!
"Then if he makes two more slow moves or makes a mistake, Maybe I'll lose...let both of them lose! ”
While speaking softly, Rui Zhao subconsciously leaned his body on the computer chair behind him, tilted his head slightly and looked out the window at the night.
In this game of chess, Rui Zhao himself It is not honorable to admit that winning.
After the start, she quickly discovered that Lei Qi had no intention of waiting for her to make a mistake. Instead, she made frequent moves and flew knives everywhere (generally referring to complex and varied chess moves). Every move reveals full confidence, as if these dangerous double-edged swords will never hurt him
Rui Zhao was secretly frightened when she looked at these chess pieces. She was not weak at chess, and after a little calculation, she knew that Lei Qi's chess game was full of traps, and she would fall to pieces if she was not careful.
After coming to this conclusion, Rui Zhao immediately made his choice.
Be patient! You must be patient!
If Lei Qi is just an ordinary ninth-dan player, then Rui Zhao will probably consider whether to struggle.
But the [Kongcheng Jueying] who just watched the game in the room said that Lei Qi is the world champion and is currently second in the domestic rankings. He is undoubtedly a figure at the top of the Go world.
With your current strength, playing knife throwing at the opponent's pace is basically gambling.
The other person is bluffing.
Once you find that you have lost your bet, it is time to admit defeat.
But this time the opponent came to play a handicap game. No matter how optimistic Rui Zhao was, he did not dare to think that the opponent was just here to scare people.
So she chose the most meticulous method: controlling the board, making appropriate concessions to avoid overly complicated changes, and trying to ensure that she maintained her seemingly huge advantage before the end.
This sounds like it is much easier than fighting with the opponent with flying knives, but everyone in the know knows that this is actually just a different choice, and it is not a small test of strength.
Because Lei Qi is not a fool, he will grasp every slow step the opponent makes! If you simply give in blindly, you will be overtaken by White before the middle game.
So Rui Zhao must carefully analyze every step and repeatedly weigh the pros and cons.
You must not give in where you can hold it, and you cannot just pull it to the bottom where you really can't bite. You must find ways to reduce losses as much as possible.
Only in this way can we persevere until the end.
Based on this principle, Rui Zhao and Lei Qi engaged in a seemingly dull game, but in fact it had an undercurrent. There is a way in this that unless you have considerable strength, you will not be able to detect it!
Thankfully, the huge advantage of more than twenty goals given to the two sons still gave Rui Zhao enough room to move.
At the end of the middle game, although it seemed that there were still many key points, through Rui Zhaoqi’s previous treatment of simplifying the complex and striving for conciseness, the whole game was actually no longer complicated. Ren Lei Qi’s chess skills No matter how high it is, no matter how hard it is to put heavy pressure on her.
It was only at this moment that Rui Zhao could finally breathe a sigh of relief. In the end, after accepting the official position, he won Sanmu as expected.
It’s just that this victory is really not worth bragging about. Winning is like losing.
If we use a metaphor, her victory over Lei Qi is equivalent to Sima Yi versus Zhuge Liang. It is obvious that the latter suppressed the former in almost all aspects, and even used his near-extreme ability to continuously devour the whales. However, the former has too much wealth and is too stubborn. , in the end, I was not with you, and I was defeated...
"But such a powerful person, it turned out that I didn't know anything about playing Go, and I asked, 'Who is Lei Qi'..."
Rui Zhao pursed his lips, feeling extremely embarrassed when he thought about the chat he sent just before playing chess. He immediately buried his head into the wall again and waited for about ten seconds before raising his head again.
Woo--if we decide on a relationship in the future, it will be so embarrassing to meet Teacher Lei Qi!
If he laughed at me about this, he would probably die on the spot, right?
no! You can’t just think about practicing chess every day!
You must at least have a rough understanding of the Go community in this world!
If this happens again, I will probably go straight to the sewer drill!
Without saying anything, Rui Zhao immediately opened the search page, entered the word "Lei Qi" and hit Enter.
Today I just happened to play a game of chess with Teacher Lei Qi, so let’s start to get to know him first!
In the blink of an eye, the search engine popped up various details about Lei Qi, which proved that he was indeed quite famous in this world - at least within the circle.
Rui Zhao casually clicked on the top encyclopedia page and began to read softly:
"Lei Qi, male, was born in Dongjiang City on August 25, 2005...
“Huh? August 25, 2005?
“He’s younger than me—?!”
Rui Zhao couldn't help but exclaimed when he read Lei Qi's birth date. Both she and the original owner here were born on February 23, 2005 - I don’t know if this is just a coincidence or there is some guidance in the dark.
And Lei Qi is actually half a year younger than her!
This is a world champion, a nine-dan chess player, and the second-ranked player in the country!
Rui Zhao's eyes widened and he did not regain his composure for a long time.
In her subconscious mind, shouldn't such a powerful person be somewhat older than herself? !
But when she thought about it carefully, she shook her head helplessly, knowing that this was actually not an exaggeration.
I am actually eighteen years old and no longer a little girl. It is not surprising that some extremely talented peers can achieve some astonishing results.
In the Go world, there is never a shortage of talented people.
In China, the best chess boys in many places quickly disappeared from the public as soon as they were sent to big cities to learn chess.
The reason is simple: when it comes to things like talent, there are always mountains beyond the mountains, and there is a sky beyond the sky.
Your talent in killing all the invincible opponents in your hometown is just mediocre in the eyes of a true genius.
Even those who are true geniuses must rely on practice and training day after day to gradually realize their talents.
What's more, Rui Zhao knows very well that she is not a so-called genius, but just an ordinary person who is not too stupid.
She still remembers that when she was a child, the adults around her liked to tease children. They would make a fuss when they saw her sometimes playing chess that was beyond her age, and would say in an exaggerated tone how talented she was.
Rui Zhao, who was still very young, was very happy when she was praised. Every time she was praised, she would happily go back and tell her parents, hoping that her parents would also praise her intelligence and talent. However, she never expected that she would get a very unified answer. :
"Xiao Zhao is a smart kid, but he is not a genius."
"Xiao Zhao, you will definitely be very good at Go, but you must work hard and do more than others. Because other children are not stupid...Have you ever seen any child who is called stupid by adults every day? "
...
With repeated teaching from parents, Rui Zhao soon fully understood that she was not the so-called "chosen one", she was just an ordinary, not too stupid little girl who loved Go deeply.
Go is a very pure thing.
There may be shortcuts to making money, and there may be opportunities for success.
But Go...
There is no other way to improve other than training hard day after day.
This is what she deeply believes in...
…
Having reached this point before even reaching adulthood, Lei Qi must be a genius who works very hard...
Rui Zhao thought silently.
Still the same sentence: There is no shortage of geniuses in the Go world.
Only when you are talented and work hard enough can you make further progress.
But... I'm not bad either!
The girl noticed that her mood was slightly depressed, and secretly encouraged herself.
You know, I am also a genius in "hard work"!
After all, it was so difficult on Earth, and I never thought of giving up!
Well, good! Slow down!
The most shocking content has passed! You can definitely read it without any psychological burden!
The girl felt that her psychological suggestion had an effect, so she cheered up and continued reading the encyclopedia content.
But she never expected that something that made her even more psychologically burdensome appeared three seconds later:
"...Chinese Go nine-dan player, world champion, and former World champion, son of Lei Jingming’s ninth grade..."
"Eh?
"Lei Jingming Jiuduan..."
"Son of -?" ! ! ! ”
In an instant, the girl’s exclamation resounded throughout the building.
I had a lot of work today, and I almost died of exhaustion. I worked hard to catch up on the manuscript, and it was not until I just finished writing this chapter now...
Tomorrow is my wife’s birthday, so I have to stay up late today to finish tomorrow’s manuscript
Then I had a really bad two days on the weekend, and I had to save the manuscript again!
The feeling of having to rush if you don’t have a manuscript saved is really terrible!
