Chapter 508 The Nongshim Cup is here again
Hearing what Du Weichen said, the members of the Pohu team knew that Elder Du was afraid that due to the recent losing streak, he needed to unify his spiritual thinking, so they all remained silent Sit back and wait for the captain and coach to speak.
Seeing that everyone was already in place, Du Weichen cleared his throat and said he was about to come:
"Well... we are all brothers, so some things don't have to be complicated!
“Although we have just dropped 40% in the regular season, we are now only one point away from Qiannan, which is ranked third from the bottom! You and the Qinghai-Tibet team are in the same boat, so no one should laugh at the other.
"Look at it like this... No surprise, there is definitely only one chance to avoid relegation."
At this point, the team members were still silent, but they also knew what Elder Du meant.
Although according to the current development, the Pohu team is stable in the bottom two, it is highly likely to be a foregone conclusion, and there are only two teams that are relegated every year.
However, it is different from the football league, which determines the relegation places directly after the league. In order to allow the mid-to-lower teams with poor performance to play more games, the teams in the second half also have playoffs. - But unlike the teams in the first half competing for the championship, the teams in the second half will decide the two relegation places through a reverse bubbling match.
Since it is a reverse bubbling match, it means that the Pohu team still has a chance to fight hard in the playoffs and fight for relegation - but it is only one chance, and there is no room for error.
"...So, for the next game, everyone, please relax a little. Just treat it as if you are already in the bottom two, don't have any mental baggage!
"Every set should be treated as the last one, and then it will be the same. Don't be afraid of losing.
"Do you understand?"
"I understand."
"The other ones are... the second niece, Xiao Wei!
"You two young people have spent more than half a year working hard to improve your game!
"That's basically what Xiaogu and I are like! The relegation battle in next year's playoffs basically depends on the improvement of you two!
"If you two are still like this, our team will only be like this next year. I'm afraid it will be difficult..."
"Okay! "Yeah, sure, Brother Du!" ”
Seeing that the two team members were very cooperative, Elder Du was quite satisfied.
In fact, objectively speaking, the regular season schedule of Siege A has only reached 40%. It is a bit early to give up now.
However, the reason why Du Weichen said this is not to really give up the regular season completely, but to put himself in a position where he can advance, attack, retreat and defend.
First of all, it is true that the Pohu team has a high probability of being in the bottom two, but after all, there is still more than half of the schedule, and we cannot completely give up the opportunity to catch up.
It’s just that now the team has lost consecutive games and their morale is low. If we still emphasize the need to have a sense of crisis and strive to move forward to achieve rankings, it will easily put too much pressure on the team members.
It's better to lower the target first and reduce the pressure on the players, so that they can easily perform better and maybe reach the third from the bottom!
If the season ends and we are still in the bottom two, the players will not be overly frustrated because they failed to achieve their goals.
As for reminding Rui Zhao and Wei Zhenzhong to work hard to improve their strength... that's the truth.
With the current situation, we really have to hope that these two young people can continue to improve, otherwise no matter which team falls, the Pohu team will be difficult to deal with.
But thinking about this, Elder Du couldn't help but complain:
"... But my second niece, I really have to say something about you!
" Earlier, you said something in the live broadcast, asking for revenge!
“Now that’s good, your opponent will take special care of you every time he sees you! The damn old Uncle Long gave you a hard time to stop slaying the dragon, so he will take advantage of your official weakness to win. You!
"I originally pointed at you to get more points on the fast chess table, but now it's all for nothing!" ”
“(＞人＜；)Yes, I’m sorry!
"I, I just wanted to take the opportunity to work hard to overcome my shortcomings, and now I am working hard to make up for the shortcomings of the official!"
"You work hard in private training! If you go to the competition, isn't it a trap for the team!"
"But, but! Training and competition are different!
"Or...Brother Du, do you usually play more training matches with me? Be serious! ”
“What a beautiful idea! ”
Du Weichen immediately tapped Rui Zhao on the head to express his rejection.
My second niece is well-known as the new-generation roll king. If I want to have a training match with her...
Is this my life? !
“…You’d better reflect on your public request for punishment first!
“I haven’t even settled the score with you for making the team’s performance so poor! ”
But at this time, Wei Zhenzhong, who was still a bit stunned, said quickly:
"That elder...
"Although Rui Zhao has lost three games in a row recently...but to be honest, she is already We have won the most. "The main reason why our team is so behind now...isn't it because, elder, you have led the team with one win and four losses so far?"
"Huh?!"
Hearing this, Du Weichen couldn't help but say:
"Xiaowei, you still have the nerve to say it!
"Isn't this also a pot that you haven't opened yet? !
“What’s more, the main players on the stage are basically the strongest players from other teams! If I don’t resist the difficulties, who can handle them?
“Is it possible for a girl like Rui Zhao to lose the main players? On stage? ah? ! ”
"Eh?!"
Originally, Du Weichen's words were meant to irritate Wei Zhenzhong, but before Wei Zhenzhong could react, Rui Zhao, who had just been scolded by the team's leader, suddenly lit up:
“Really, really?!
“There is actually such a good thing...? ! ! ! ”
“……”
Looking at his second niece whose tone suddenly rose, Du Weichen's forehead twitched:
No!
You have lost like this recently, and you still think your opponent is not strong enough!
Although what he just said was very rude, the leader of the Pohu team did not really give up the possibility of improving his ranking in the future. It was impossible for the girl to wish for it, so he immediately reprimanded:
" Stop making trouble!
"With your level, you still want to take the lead? Don't look at how you have lost recently!"
However, Rui Zhao, who was already interested, did not simply admit his mistake this time, but began to talk back. :
"Recently...my grades are indeed not very good! But I feel that I am still improving!
"Besides, Brother Du, your level is not very good...
“I won one game when I was on the captain’s stage. You only won one game after playing five games. I feel like I won’t be any worse off!
"Maybe...Brother Du, you can't play chess with me now!"
Hey! ! !
When will this girl talk back again?
Du Weichen was immediately out of breath:
“Ha! You are said to be fat and yet you are still out of breath?
"Okay! Let's play a game now! Let me tell you carefully what it means to "not know the heights of the sky"! ”
“Okay! That’s exactly what I meant! "
Rui Zhao pursed his lips, and then stood up decisively, looking eager to try.
"Okay! I'll get the chessboard! "
Elder Du, who was feeling angry for no reason, immediately walked out to find chess equipment and clocks. Whatever he said today, he would show off to this second niece who doesn't know the world!
But after taking only two steps, Du Weichen suddenly realized that something seemed wrong...
...Eh? no!
Why did I...inexplicably add a game of chess to myself? !
And this game...
It seems that I still have to win!
Thinking of this, Du Weichen couldn't help but turned around and looked at Rui Zhao.
But he saw his second niece standing there with a pure face, as clean as a newly bloomed lotus:
"Huh? Brother Du, why are you looking at me like this all of a sudden? Me?
“Is there something on my face?”
…
…
After the sixth round of Siege A, according to the arrangements of various events, the Chinese men’s chess world entered a relatively quiet week.
The vast majority of men's middle and above chess players do not have any competitions during the week, except for one person.
On the evening of September 3rd, just after the away game against Qilu team, Sun Yi, the Chinese chess player who had already adjusted his condition, took the luggage he had packed earlier and rushed to Dajing City that night to meet with the Chess Association. Vice Chairman Lu Wenjie and national team coach Jiao Kai met to prepare for the official opening on the evening of September 4th...
The 26th Nongshim Ramen Cup World Go Team Championship.
