Chapter 255 "Old Kuai" Kuai Liang
After yelling what he just said, no one in the room spoke to him - because no one else was in his room.
Lei Qi, who calmed down a little, quickly realized his gaffe, sat back on the chair, and sighed.
There was no one else in the room, why should I yell...
The young man couldn't help but reflect on himself.
The reason why he couldn't hold back his emotions for a while was because of a piece of news just pushed by the Yiguo platform:
[The strongest new Chu Duan has great ambitions and declares his future goal: to catch up with and surpass the first person in the future! 】
In fact, in the past two days, while various official media were vigorously promoting it, the Yiguo platform also struck while the iron was hot and dug out a lot of news surrounding Rui Zhao, a popular fried chicken. We have already posted a lot of Rui Zhao’s experiences and deeds along the way.
For these pushes, other Leiqi can be ignored directly. But this cue was the only one that hit him, and the young man really couldn't hold himself back.
Originally, he didn't care much about such words.
There are many people of his own age who like to compete with him, and he is used to it.
Let’s not even mention Chu Jun’s “Nan Murong”. Just talking about the female chess players, the little witch he had been dating for one year had been competing openly and secretly for two years - of course, later because of the real There is no comparison.
For Xiaolei Jiuduan, it can be said that he is not surprised by this kind of "confrontation" from the weak, it is just a cloud.
But for today's teenagers, Rui Zhao is really a sensitive person, and it is difficult for Lei Qi to completely ignore her words and deeds.
Especially...she actually said that she was targeting herself!
In Lei Qi's view, women's talent in Go is much lower than that of men, and the gap is not much worse than in physical sports.
He believes that this is not looking down on women, but an extremely objective fact - the huge performance gap between male and female chess players to this day is fully proof of this.
If telling the truth means looking down on women, then women are too easily looked down upon.
On the contrary, he admires female chess players - despite the huge innate gap, they still try hard to compete with men. This is respectable behavior in any case.
But... this Rui Zhao actually said that he wanted to catch up with him? !
This seemingly impossible goal made the young world champion feel dissatisfied, and at the same time, he secretly felt an inexplicable emotion in his heart.
Lei Qi bit his lip, immediately threw his phone aside, and concentrated on preparing for the game that was about to start tomorrow.
At the same time, I couldn’t help but want to meet the “Queen of Live Streaming” in the first round and win her face to face...
…
At one o’clock that afternoon , the lineup of the 2023 Pinghu Quick Chess Tournament was officially announced.
Rui Zhaochudan did not win the "big prize" of two young chess players under the age of 15 as the organizing committee expected.
It is not like what Yang Manjing, Chu Jun, Lei Qi and others thought.
Zhao Tianhou’s lottery is ordinary, but there is nothing strange about it.
——It’s just a bit difficult to get off.
The opponent of the new Chudan girl in the first round is a famous domestic fast chess master and the runner-up in the last Pinghu fast chess competition:
"Lao Kuai", Kuai Liang 9th Dan.
…
…
September 8, at 8:30 in the morning, Chao City Sports Center.
The opening ceremony of the 2023 Pinghu Quick Chess Tournament was officially held here.
"Pinghu" was the ancient name of Chaozhou City during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The reason why this fast chess competition held in Dangchao City is named after the ancient name "Pinghu" is because there were two Go masters in the Ming and Qing Dynasties who played in Pinghu County at that time and left behind a very famous ancient score " Pinghu ten games."
In these ten games, the two masters reached the peak of their chess skills and demonstrated their superb chess skills, vividly reflecting the lofty artistic conception of Chinese Go. Therefore, the "Pinghu Ten Game" is still considered a model in the ancient Chinese Go records, and it is natural that local competitions will use it as a natural signature.
The opening ceremony was all a formality and various speech platforms, so I won’t mention them all in detail.
It was not until all the leaders present at the opening ceremony had finished speaking that a tall, lean and capable 25-year-old young man came to the lineup posted next to the competition venue to confirm his first-round opponent.
However, when he saw his first round matchup, he was slightly surprised:
"Oh! I didn't expect it!
"I was assigned to a famous person! "
Kuai Liang was just talking to himself, but suddenly someone on the side answered him.
"Huh? Boss, listen to this... Did you just find out about the matchup today? "
Kuai Liang frowned, but found out that it was the famous "Smiling Tiger" in the circle, and he was in the ninth grade.
"Brother Le, how many times have I told you, please be precise in your pronunciation! It's Lao Kuai, not Lao Kuai!"
As a male, Kuai Liang has a very unique nickname for "Lao Kuai" But it is very repulsive.
The reason... I understand it all. "Yes, yes! Lao Kuai!"
Bian Lele echoed with raised eyebrows.
"But it's a shame that you are completely indifferent!
" Since Rui Zhao passed the preliminaries the day before yesterday, not only the media in the circle, but also a lot of central media have been enthusiastically promoting this beautiful chess player. Don’t be too popular!
“As soon as the lineup for this match came out at noon yesterday, I immediately went to see if I could match up with her.
“If we are going to match up, I will follow Lin Ruixin’s example. I’m going to do a live broadcast and get some of Zhao Tianhou’s traffic. I wonder how I can get tens of thousands of followers? "
"Don't come! What's the point! ”
Faced with the teasing of the smiling tiger who always loves to joke, Kuai Liang still maintained his outspoken style:
“Just play chess, as long as you can play well, why do you think about so many other things! "Okay, bad chess!"
After saying this, Kuai Liang didn't hesitate, immediately left Bian Lele and went straight to his chess table.
After the first two days of qualifying, the originally huge competition venue has been greatly reduced, so Kuai Liang found his position without much effort. And...
My opponent in this round—Xinchu Duan Ruizhao.
I saw this beautiful chess player who was currently in the limelight sitting on the other side of the chess table, concentrating on taking pieces and trying them again and again. It was really beautiful.
Even though there was a camera not far away that was constantly taking pictures, she didn't care, as if she was completely immersed in her own world.
It’s obviously not a vase...
But it’s more beautiful than a vase...
Although I didn’t pay attention to this game yesterday, I actually watched the girl win. Kuai Liang, who was reading Zeng Guangwen’s chess game, nodded secretly, and finally sat directly opposite the girl:
"This is our first meeting, Queen Zhaotian!
"I am Kuai Liang. I never expected that I would meet you in the first round! "
Seeing someone talking to him, Rui Zhao came back to his senses from the test, showed a reserved smile and said:
"Ah! Hello Kuai Liang 9th Dan! I'm so happy to meet you at the fast chess competition!
"It's just... you can just call me by my name. I am a little new Chudan, Zhao, Zhao Tianhou, etc. It's too exaggerated..."
The title "Empress Zhao" was first used by Lin Ruixin's fans to mock Rui Zhao. However, because it was widely spread later, passers-by also used it. Now it has gradually become neutral and has a more teasing meaning. Rui Zhao's fans themselves It is occasionally used in this way when making fun of it - but the person involved is not used to it at all.
However, for the outspoken Kuai Liang, he was too lazy to care about details such as titles.
It was the girl's previous words that made him raise his eyebrows in relief:
"Oh? You said you were happy to meet me?"
The girl forced herself to He nodded seriously and said:
"Yes! Everyone says that you are the best in China in fast chess!
"Of course I am happy to be able to play against such a powerful master! "
Kuai Liang blinked twice and continued to ask:
" But I'm not polite, if you meet me, you will probably be eliminated!
“Don’t you want to... pick an opponent with a weak point? This way, you have a higher chance of advancement!”
"I don't want to!" Rui Zhao shook his head without hesitation: "If you can't meet a strong opponent, let alone advance, even if you win the championship, it doesn't mean much!
"Like the previous new preliminary stage, if I had known it earlier If everyone’s skills are not high, I won’t sign up. Even if I win the championship, I feel like it’s a waste of time...”
Kuai Liang couldn’t help but laugh: “You mean... you think your classmates are weak? "
Rui Zhao then realized that he had said the wrong thing:
"Ahhh! no! I’m not saying that the new juniors in my class are weak! I mean, I don’t know why, but the intensity of this new preliminary stage is just not high. I am still very happy and happy to win the championship! ”
Seeing the girl's hurried explanation, Kuai Liang couldn't help laughing.
The chess piece is beautiful, the person is beautiful, and the temperament is not bad...
...It's just a pity that he is a fool!
Kuai Liang raised his eyebrows and said:
"Okay! I will definitely go all out later. I hope you will be satisfied with the Queen Zhaotian!"
"Ah! Kuai Jiuduan! You told me not to be like this...eh?"
When Rui Zhao wanted to say more, he couldn't help but was stunned.
Because at this time, a peer suddenly walked near her, and then sat down on the chess table next to her without saying a word.
The boy did the whole action very naturally and gracefully, but the expression on his face was obviously a bit tense.
The plot of the Pinghu Quick Chess Tournament is coming to an end. I will spend three or four chapters in the middle to transition (I hope this length is enough for the transition), and will jump to the next more important plot as soon as possible: Nongshim Cup/Hupan Cup The first stage of the competition in Dongying City.
