"...So...
"Her parents really don't like me very much, do they? "
On the morning of February 5th, Muhu Go Dojo.
Sun Hou'er, who came to visit his teacher, pursed his lips and looked quite depressed.
"Well , that’s the situation. ”
Yu Qingguang sighed.
Sun Houer came here today. On the one hand, he was visiting his teacher, but on the other hand, he also needed Lao Yu Jiuduan’s help as a consultant for some things during the Spring Festival.
Although Coach Yu can also say nice things to Sun Houer, in the final analysis, it does not help.
The two have been teachers and students for many years, and there is no need to be polite, so Yu Qingguang said honestly:
"From your description, Liu Yuhong's parents have a relatively good attitude toward you. Lukewarm.
"I've heard this kind of attitude a lot in Eastern Jiangsu and Zhejiang - your parents are definitely not very satisfied with you anyway. It's probably because your daughter approves of it, so they just maintain a superficial politeness, but it's very difficult. It’s hard to say how enthusiastic he is.”
“Ah, indeed...”
Sun Houer sighed.
However, he was disappointed with this result, but he still had expectations.
After all, you must know that the other one of the twins, my senior sister Xiao Yang, is currently talking with a doctoral lecturer at Dongjiang University of Finance and Economics, and the conversation is progressing rapidly. I heard that both families are very satisfied.
Senior Sister Zou is looking for a teacher with a doctorate degree and a famous school.
On the other hand, as Liu Yuhong’s boyfriend, getting a junior high school diploma is a blessing in compulsory education and in principle does not allow repeating a grade.
Comparing the two, Liu Yuhong’s parents would be less optimistic, which is normal.
Sun Yi actually knew this before, so he wanted to work hard to make more money, achieve more results, and try to make up the gap between the two parties.
But after being taught by Zou Yangyi, Sun Houer dared not delay it any longer, so he had no choice but to rush the duck and put it on the shelf.
It’s just that now it seems that Liu Yuhong’s parents, who are from Jinling, are not very satisfied with the duck this time...
Seeing the students looking like eggplants beaten by frost, Yu Qingguang felt a little distressed. He comforted and said:
"Sun Hou'er, but don't be discouraged!
"We who engage in sports projects, in the final analysis, it all depends on the results!
“As long as you win a world championship and have a reputation, it means you can be used in a big way! Then I guess Liu Yuhong’s parents won’t have any objections.
"Actually, I really think your chess skills are no worse than Xiaolei's, but the key is that your mentality is always bad when facing a strong enemy, and you always seem very timid.
"You have to learn this. Ruizhao! This little girl of hers is really brave!
“The year before last when I had just decided on the tiers, I dared to call Lin Ruixin to his face. Recently, I have been drawing a bunch of 9th dans without being frightened. On the contrary, the 9th dans are all frightened, for fear that they will be cheated. Her fermented bean curd is well-known.
“Even Shangguan Sheng didn’t hold back and directly gave away the second position of their Qiantang team!
“So you, don’t always have any psychological baggage, just fight every game like Rui Zhao!
"Including the fact that you can occasionally practice with your junior sister. Her strength cannot be underestimated now. I guess you can feel her drive."
Hearing this, Sun Yi subconsciously He pursed his lips and nodded a little guiltily, expressing his high agreement.
On the one hand, he has already experienced the momentum of his junior sister through personal combat - and he was paid to experience it.
On the other hand, it stemmed from a guess in his mind that he himself felt a little afraid to think about...
As a member of the top fifteen in the country, he naturally knows these days. News about the recent "Spring Festival Welfare Tournament" organized by the Chess Association.
The winning fee of 10,000 yuan per game in the "Spring Festival Welfare Match" was the same as the "overtime pay during the Spring Festival" that his junior sister had previously offered him - but at that time, even if Sun Yi had the intention to earn this money, he did not earn it. Money energy and guts.
Combined with the "one hour, one minute" time rule of this "Spring Festival Welfare Tournament", it is also the same as the time setting for his previous sparring with his junior sister.
My junior sister asked me to practice chess, but I slipped away. Then the Chess Association, which had always been hard-working, suddenly held a "Spring Festival Welfare Tournament", and the opponent was "Dai Ran" who never liked to join in the fun... ...
No matter how unconventional Sun Houer was, he noticed something strange at this time. Even combined with some recent unusual news, Sun Yi had a vague guess that seemed outrageous.
It’s just that this outrageous speculation was so sensational that Sun Houer had some self-doubts, whether his mind was out of control again this time, so he had such a wild idea...
…
…
“Bring Rei-chan there too?!
“Chairman, why do you have such an idea? ”
At the same time, Japanese Chess Academy.
I just heard the latest requirements of the chess academy from the chairman of the chess academy, Kobayashi Yahiko. Now the holder of the four Japanese crowns of [chess master], [celebrity], Honinbo, and [tengen], and also the Japanese leader of the Nongshim Cup in this section, Ichijo Takuya, can't help but feel so Some surprise. Well, yes.
In last November’s Celebrity Battle, Nao Ax, who had never been able to adjust to his best form after becoming the Queen of Fermented Fermented Beancurd, lost the title of [Celebrity] without any surprise and achieved success. The three great achievements of friends combined into one.
Hearing this, Yahiko Kobayashi smiled and said:
"What? Does it affect you?"
"Ah! Of course not!"
Ichijo Takuya waved his hand and said:
"It's just... I think it's more appropriate for Rei-chan to practice chess at home.
"After all, I overall I’m more adaptable to slow chess. With the fast chess format of the Nongshim Cup, it’s hard to say how good my results will be..."
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Kobayashi Yahiko couldn’t help but smile and said:
"Ichijou-kun, let Uesaka go with you this time... Actually, the main thing is not to look at you!"
"...Huh?"
Hearing these words, Ichijo Takuya was stunned for a moment. Then he slowly came to his senses:
“...I understand.
“But Chairman, I am very optimistic about what she said.
"But at the moment, all the countries left in the Nongshim Cup are strong players. I guess she will most likely just go through the motions, and it will be difficult for her to perform in any big way..."
"This is not necessarily true, right? She has been very good recently. If you win, that Shangguan will be promoted!”
The smile on Yahiko Kobayashi’s face is still kind:
“China has been defeated by South Korea for four consecutive Nongshim Cups. They can’t just do this. Swallowing the air.
“No matter what the reasons behind China’s arrangement are, they have their reasons.
"Ryu Shixian pushed this matter to the forefront almost as soon as he learned about the personnel arrangement of the Chinese team. I heard that domestic public opinion put great pressure on the Chinese Chess Association.
"But as of today China would rather bear this pressure than notify us that there will be a replacement - which shows how much it trusts its own female celebrities.
“Since China is so confident, I feel that no matter what, Uesaka should be allowed to witness for herself the grace of the person she is studying on the world’s top stage.
"What do you think, Ichijo-kun? "
"...I understand what you mean. ”
After being silent for a while, Takuya Ichijo finally nodded seriously, then smiled and said:
"What you said makes me look forward to playing chess with her again. After all, I can be considered secretly playing against her. I’ve learned a lot.
“That’s it, do you want to beat Lei Qi or Li Tingyan in fast chess... Tsk.
“This is really not an easy thing!”
…
…
In this way, as the third stage of the Nongshim Cup is approaching, the remaining contestants from various countries are rushing to the traditional venue of this stage of the competition-Huaxia Dongjiang as planned.
The next day, February 6, 2025, will be at 7 pm.
The opening ceremony of the third phase of the 26th Nongshim Cup and the media meeting were officially held at Dongjiang Hotel.
China's Lei Qi and Lin Ruixin, Japan's Ichijo Tuozai, South Korea's Li Tingyan and Liu Shixian...
Except for the last substitute player from China who has not yet been announced, all the remaining chess players from the Three Kingdoms were present.
The decisive battle of another Nongshim Cup is about to begin.
But...
It was originally just a warm-up opening ceremony, but this time because of an extremely unexpected question at the media meeting, it quickly attracted the attention of chess fans all over the world:
"...Chairman Shang, I just took this opportunity to take the liberty to ask...
"China's side...
"Is there still no intention to replace the substitute players? "
Before many media reporters formally asked questions, Ryu Se-hyun, the world's first man, asked when he took the stage as a representative of South Korea to deliver a speech. (End of this chapter)
