Chapter 90 Opponent in the first round
“Sister An An! I won again!”
May 28, 10:45 a.m., Yanbei Middle School in Dongjiang City.
Rui Zhao ended her sixth round of the rematch and ran towards Ai Jianan with a smile.
"Hey, do we still need to watch Xiao Zhao's game? Just wait a while and it will be another victory!"
Ai Jianan, who was chatting with the audience, was in a good mood when she heard the voice, and felt a little proud in front of the audience.
Then he picked up the mobile phone used for live broadcast and pointed the camera at the bright girl again.
"Xiao Zhao! Congratulations!
"But in this case...you should have qualified early, right? "
"Ah! ”
The girl blinked and thought for a while, then her smile became brighter and she nodded.
"Well! I haven't lost a single game in six games, and I've already entered the main draw!"
In order to reduce randomness, the previous single-elimination elimination was not used in the rematch of this "City Cup" . Instead, the 192 players were divided into three groups of sixty-four people each. The Swiss double-elimination format is used. In the next seven rounds, the top four from each group will qualify.
This competition system can add a little fault tolerance to the experts, ensure that capable players can enter the main competition with the greatest probability, and increase the popularity and quality of the competition.
And this competition system has another feature: although it is said to be a total of seven rounds, if you win all the first six rounds, you can lock in the qualifying spot in advance.
Rui Zhao was not assigned to a group with Bai Yinhua this time. He had a clear strength advantage against other opponents in the group. As expected, he won six consecutive victories and successfully qualified early.
In other words, Rui Zhao did not play in the afternoon. Just wait for the final announcement of the promotion list and the main match.
“Congratulations on advancing to the main competition!”
Ai Jianan immediately sent his blessings and suggested at the same time.
"That's just right! There is no game in the afternoon, let's find a place to have a good rest!"
In the entire afternoon of free time, Ai Jianan would definitely try his best to arrange some extra programs for Rui Zhao to increase his popularity.
But now, looking at the dark circles under the girl's eyes that were still visible even after putting on makeup, Ai Jianan said that there was nothing she could do.
Ai Jianan, who has also practiced chess hard, knows exactly how tiring it is to practice chess.
So according to her idea, it would be a better choice to take Rui Zhao to a nearby hotel to get an hourly room and have a good rest.
"Ah..." the girl hesitated: "I, I originally planned to find an Internet cafe and play a game of online chess..."
But Ai Jian'an couldn't agree: "Why play online chess! You don't want to rest, I still want to rest! Come with me to the hotel to get an hourly room!"
"Then, then I can go to the Internet cafe alone ..."
"Forget it! You can lose yourself by going to an Internet cafe alone!"
"No matter how stupid I am, I won't be like this! !" the girl retorted stubbornly.
“Why not? If you don’t believe me, just ask the audience in the live broadcast room!” Ai Jianan raised this question at the right time.
After hearing this, the barrage in the live broadcast room suddenly became active.
Everyone questioned whether Rui Zhao could go to the Internet cafe alone and suggested that he go to the hotel to rest as soon as possible.
The reaction of the audience in the live broadcast room is certainly not beyond Ai Jianan’s expectation:
Any normal person would definitely be more interested in watching a beautiful girl go to an Internet cafe. I would like to see beautiful girls go to the hotel to rest.
The reason... I understand it all.
"Ugh...I, do I look so unreliable?"
The girl who saw the barrage in the live broadcast room was very aggrieved and had to follow Ai Jianan's suggestion.
However, Ai Jianan naturally did not give the audience many opportunities.
After Rui Zhao was persuaded, she immediately informed the audience in the live broadcast room that the results of the draw for the main draw would be notified via news updates, and she also made an appointment to meet again next week for the main draw.
Then, before the audience could react, they decisively turned off the live broadcast, leaving only a black screen of "???" floating across the live broadcast room.
…
…
At 3:30 in the afternoon, after the last round of the "City Cup" semi-finals, the organizing committee quickly organized a small semi-final closing ceremony to publicly Announcing the list of qualifying players. "After two days of group double elimination, the semi-finals of the 'Metropolitan Cup' Dongjiang Division have come to a successful conclusion. All twelve players have entered the final stage. They are:
"Rui Zhao, Cheng Yuyang, Wang Sihua..."
As Ke Mulan, vice chairman of the Dongjiang Chess Association, read out the list of players who entered the main draw in public, the long prelude to the Dongjiang Division competition of the ‘Metropolitan Cup’ finally came to an end.
Originally, logically speaking, an amateur competition in a niche event should not have a month-long schedule.
But in fact, there are considerations from the Chess Association.
Set all competition dates on weekends to ensure that ordinary people can participate without obstacles and maximize public participation.
A long enough schedule can maintain the popularity to a certain extent.
Although, these small measures are difficult to completely reverse the overall trend of Go becoming increasingly niche. But for the people at the helm of Chinese Go, they are willing to do everything they can to do anything that is beneficial to the development of Go.
As for the increase in workload...
The only thing you can do is suffer yourself!
"...Qiu Yaoshuang, okay! Well, Bai Yinhua."
After coughing obviously deliberately, Ke Mulan reported the name of the last contestant.
"These twelve players, together with the four famous amateur chess players directly invited by the organizing committee, will decide the final champion next weekend through four rounds of single-elimination elimination.
"Please be the last The twelve players participating in the main competition will later go to the temporary office of the organizing committee to confirm the match situation and receive the main competition participation certificates. Thank you all! "
…
"Xiao Zhaomiao, shall we go there now? ”
In the afternoon, because he was just watching the matchup and getting his ID at the same time, Ai Jianan did not bother to start the live broadcast, and his address to Rui Zhao returned to his usual cordiality.
"A little, a little later!" Rui Zhao whispered: "I, I don't want to meet that person again before the main game, it will affect my mood."
"Well, me too."< br>
Ai Jianan agreed, and the two stood there for a while before going.
When the two arrived at the organizing committee office, all the qualifying players had left after learning about the matchup. Only two busybodies who had not entered the main match were still standing at the door discussing something. .
"Hey! Bai Yinhua's luck is really good this time. Doesn't the Chess Association do some secret operations?"
"God knows what the Chess Association is thinking. I even suspect that the Chess Association has a PY deal with this guy in private!
"If you ask me, don't talk to a scum like Bai Yinhua. Zhang', just disqualify him from the competition and that's it!
"Even if the chess association really cannot disqualify Bai Yinhua from the competition even if we retreat ten thousand steps, then at least we should put both Gu Mingqing and Wang Zhen in Bai Yinhua's half and try every means to Stop him!
“But now is better! It's all wrong! I really just let Bai Yinhua do whatever he wants..."
At the end of the conversation, the two shook their heads and left.
After hearing these words, Ai Jianan understood everything at once.
Looking at it like this, the matchup situation must be that Bai Yinhua and the two "Four Amateur Kings" are completely in different halves.
This also means that Bai Yinhua will only have to face one of the two in this competition.
Ai Jianan couldn't help but frowned.
In the matter of Bai Yinhua, although she can understand the chess association's difficulties in "everything follows the rules".
But for a guy like Bai Yinhua who has no martial ethics at all, it makes sense to arrange the most difficult schedule for him with a little manipulation.
But why is this so rigid that you don’t even plan to use this skill!
Ai Jian'an shook his head slightly and continued to walk in, only to see that the blackboard in the temporary competition office (it was a borrowed classroom, so there was a blackboard) had already written the matchups for the main game.
As the two people who just talked said, the draw of the main draw has put the two amateur kings in the top half. If everything goes well, the two kings will meet in the semi-finals.
As for Bai Yinhua, he was assigned to the lower half. Completely avoiding the encounter with two amateur 8-dan masters before the finals.
And his opponent in the first round was...
Huh? ! ! !
Ai Jianan's pupils suddenly shrank, and then she suddenly turned her head to look at the girl beside her.
But I saw the girl's eyes were like a pool of autumn water, quiet and elegant, quietly reflecting the match list on the blackboard, as clear as practice.
