Chapter 287 The end of the first stage
“Brother Li, Xiaoliu, I’m sorry to disappoint you.”
On the evening of October 19th, Capital City, South Korea Chess Academy conference room.
Xu Xiangheng appeared on the screen with red eyes and a very low tone.
“This game of chess... I think too much about advantages, and I always want to win it steadily.
"In the end, Lei Qi successfully disrupted the situation. By the time I planned to make adjustments, it was already too late. I am fully responsible for it!"
Seeing Xu Xiangheng so depressed after losing, Li Tingyan, who was the talker in the team, immediately called out Plan to offer words of comfort.
Unexpectedly, someone on the scene reacted faster than him.
The fair and gentle-looking young man on the side immediately stood up and bowed slightly to Xu Xiangheng:
"Brother Xiangheng, what are you talking about!
"It's embarrassing enough for you to go to Japan in the first stage this time! Just return home and rest early!
"In the second stage in November, I will definitely accompany you Let’s work hard together on this one! "
"Hey, Xiaoliu, what unlucky words are you talking about! "
At this time, Li Tingyan couldn't help but jokingly said:
"The second stage is the task of Min Lie and I. What does your general look like on the field!" ”
Park Min-yeol, who was wearing a pair of round-rimmed glasses and had a kind personality, also laughed and said:
"Yes, Xiaoliu! Don't distrust us so much!"
The reason why the two said that , because South Korea, as the most powerful country in Go in the new century, rarely has its leader appear in the second stage, and it has only happened once so far - the 6th Nongshim Cup.
In that Nongshim Cup, the South Korean team performed extremely poorly. Except for the leader Cui Minghao, the other four players together only won one game, which forced the first player in the World Championship era to appear early in the second stage.
And you must know that another reason why Cui Minghao played in the second stage that time was that the three-stage schedule of the Nongshim Cup was "five-five-four" (the number of games in each stage).
The schedule for this year’s tournament is “four, five, five.”
If Master Xiaoliu plays in the second stage of this competition, it means that the other four people will have a record of 0-4 together. It’s okay to stand out as a dog on top of a dog!
To sum up, even though everyone knows that Xiaoliu doesn’t mean that. But looking at this sentence alone, it does seem to distrust the remaining two teammates. That's why Li Tingyan made fun of it.
At this point, Xiaoliu, who realized that he had made a mistake, waved his hands quickly:
“Ah... no, no, I didn’t mean it like that!
"I'm just saying that if necessary, I can appear in advance!"
"Oh, if I do this, chess fans will probably think that I am an insect in the chess academy!"
After Li Tingyan said this, everyone laughed, which diluted Xu Xiangheng's deep feeling of defeat.
However, although he is still humorous on the surface, the Dajing team leader himself is secretly worried.
Now Xu Xiangheng, with the flying knife given by Qi Yuan, has not been able to kill Lei Qi...
Then wait until the second stage, can you...
Can you stop this Chinese Pioneer teammate who is in the spotlight?
…
…
On the evening of the same day, China Internet and the Yiguo Go Forum were still in full swing.
There is no way, the recent Go circle is destined to be unstable.
Because no one expected that the first stage of the Nongshim/Hupan Cup, which is not normally very intense, would produce so much breaking news.
Originally, Zhao Tianhou's "flawless" "second half of friendship" this morning was enough to arouse discussion. However, in the afternoon Lei Qi's extremely brilliant comeback and the arrogant remarks that changed his past style. Zi ignited the discussion in the forum again.
[Um...do we, the two vanguards of the group arena, have the attack effect of crying against our opponents? 】
【There were four games of chess yesterday and today, three of them shed tears in front of the camera, and the remaining one, Old Xu, is still uncertain about his life or death...】
[Well, I just dug out the interview from South Korea. Lao Xu didn’t cry when he cried, but his eyes were red...]
[Then he had already finished crying in the bathroom! ! ! 】
【For the friendship of the Three Kingdoms, I think it is better not to put Xiao Lei and Zhao Tianhou in the vanguard position in the future. It is too cruel! 】
【My opponent has been beaten to tears in all four games so far, and three of them were super wins with 40 or 50 goals on the board (the second half of the friendly match with Uesaka Reina does not count)】
[ Finally, today Lao Xu went into battle with a sword, but Xiao Lei didn't say anything about it. He was actually ridiculed by Xiao Lei after the game. As a Chinese chess fan, I feel miserable just thinking about it...]
[Yeah... I feel like this little Lei is Lin Ruixin's upper body today! In the interview after the game, shrimps and pig hearts were asked! 】
[What the person above said is right, in this interview, if I blocked out the name of the interviewee and read the transcript alone, I really thought it was Lin Ruixin! 】【"Effortless!" "Does it have an impact?" "Did he do it?"... I feel that the reporters from the central media were stunned when they heard these sentences...]
< br>【Can this also be said to others? .jpg]
[I heard that the media and chess fans in South Korea were shocked when they saw Xiaolei’s interview. They left messages asking Xu Xiangheng, the representative of the South Korean Chess Academy, to invite Lei Qi to play twenty games! The kind who won’t sleep without going to the bathroom! 】
[Isn’t Xiaolei a pretty good boy? What is going on? Why are you acting so crazy lately? 】
【After losing to Lin Ruixin in the chess holy battle, did you figure it out? Join if you can't beat him? 】
【I think it’s a good thing for Xiao Lei to be a little crazier like Lin Ruixin. As the saying goes, "Young people have their own teenage craziness"! 】
[If you look so young and mature every day, don’t be like the prodigal son and lose your temper. You will reach the peak when you debut, and you haven’t won the second world championship yet]
[That’s what I say, but I think domestic chess players should not taunt others randomly...]
[The words Lin Ruixin mocked Master Liu a few years ago now look like boomerangs... I'm so scared! 】
【Uh... let's, let's talk about the Nongshim Cup and the Lakeside Cup! 】
【Is there a detail that no one pays attention to? After finishing the game today, Xiao Lei put aside the official interview and went to the Zhaotianhou live broadcast station first for a tour? 】
【If yesterday he couldn't wait to show off in public, what does it mean today? 】
【Oops! A discerning person will know it at a glance, do you have to say it so clearly? 】
[Xiao Lei must have some ideas~]
[Recently there are some rumors saying that Xiao Lei’s recent poor condition is because he was blocked by Zhao Tianhou! 】
【Real or fake? ! But if that's the case, then shouldn't Queen Zhao quickly agree when she asks him to explain her self-combat? 】
【Well, I don’t know, I just heard some rumors. 】
【Don’t listen to the wind, it’s the rain! How could Xiao Lei have a chance! Xiao Zhao clearly knows that I am the only one in his heart! ! ! 】
[Uh... whoever is naughty enough, go and wake up upstairs. 】
【Don’t come if you have diabetes, don’t let him taste the sweetness! 】
【Well... please don't spread such rumors without official sources!
[Some time ago, Yiguo blocked many accounts, including certified accounts for low-level professions! 】
……
However, these miscellaneous discussions on the Chinese Internet did not affect the two Chinese pioneers competing hundreds of kilometers away in Japan.
October 20th is the final day of the first stage of the arena competition.
In the Lakeside Cup showdown in the morning, despite South Korea's second forward An Huilin's hard work, the game did not fall into the embarrassing situation of prematurely entering garbage time like the previous two games.
But anyone with a discerning eye can see that there is still a certain gap in strength between the two sides.
Chinese striker Rui Zhao should be steady and ruthless, advancing and retreating in a controlled manner, but gave An Huilin almost no chance.
The board entered the small official stage. Seeing that the gap between her four and five pieces could not be further narrowed, An Huilin had no choice but to sigh and chose to surrender.
However, she has successfully achieved a small achievement - she is the first player not to be made to cry by Empress Zhaotian in the ring competition, which is gratifying to her.
As for the Nongshim Cup in the afternoon, the desperate Japanese team, with the determination of "must win over Lei Qi and avenge its shame", directly placed the current celebrity Toraichiro Ueno in the second forward position, eager to win. It can be seen.
The final game of the first stage of this set had a little twists and turns.
Three consecutive days of competition - especially the hard-fought comeback yesterday, still had a certain impact on Lei Qi's competitive state.
The quality of his moves in this game was obviously not high enough, and the situation was slightly behind after the layout.
Unfortunately, the top and jungle players did not perform exceptionally well in this game. In the middle game and the official stage, Lei Qi still used some slow moves that Japanese chess players often tend to make to gradually regain the situation.
In the end, the two played a total of 262 hands. After counting the boards, Lei Qi won by an eye and a half advantage!
At this point, the first stage of this Nongshim/Hupan Cup is over.
The two pioneers of the Chinese men's and women's teams each achieved three victories and are still in the ring today. They are undoubtedly the center of attention!
Congratulations to Xuan Gong for his first championship. The game yesterday was really beautiful.
On the 2nd, when I saw him playing "Three Stunning Slow Hands", I was really stunned.
