Chapter 634 The new generation of leaders


Tsk, liar...

It was clearly promised that he would catch up with me...

But this path is obviously heading towards Liu Shixian! ”

At 8:30 pm on October 23, in a room at the Meida Plaza Hotel in Zhenze City.

Lei Qichao, who just finished analyzing today’s game between Rui Zhao and Lang Haishen He leaned back and let out a long sigh, with a slightly troubled expression.

Half a year has passed, and the appearance of the young Chinese leader seems to be the same as before. But he, who officially turned 20 in August this year, still reveals a more calm and mature temperament, which makes people even more impressed.

The Masters...is next month.

When the time comes, she should be restrained and strive to win with all her strength, right?

Thinking of this, Lei Qi squinted his eyes, but at this moment, he heard a knock on the door and a familiar voice:

"Lei Qi, are you there? ?”

Um? teacher?

After reacting, Lei Qi jumped up from his chair and hurriedly opened the door:

"Teacher Shang! Why are you here?"

There was someone at the door. It was Shang Chaotian, the chairman of the Chess Association. He looked at his most proud student and said jokingly:

"That's right, I'm going to Or City tomorrow. So I'm here to talk to you, the leader of the new generation. Say goodbye! ”

On October 26, the first Zhaojun Tournament after the name change will officially start in Or City, and the opening ceremony and welcome dinner will be held the night after tomorrow.

So Shang Chaotian, who just attended the opening ceremony of the Wanchang Chess Cup in Zhenze City, is working non-stop and will rush to Er City in the Border and Mongolia District tomorrow. This has indeed been planned.

However, although there was no surprise about Shang Chaotian’s itinerary, Lei Qi still led him into the room and said modestly:

“Ah, Teacher, are you kidding!

"I only have three world championships in total, how dare I say I am the leader!"

"Furthermore, in the Tongge Cup, Zhuang Zheng suddenly eliminated Ryu Shixian to win the championship. If I really want to meet him in the final, I feel very hard to say..."

"Hey, what do you mean three? The world champion is not the leader! Uncle Lu will be unhappy after hearing this!"

Shang Chaotian walked into the room and sat down and said jokingly:

"What's more, you are doing really well now. Not to mention the two domestic championships in the King of Kings Tournament and the Pinghu Quick Chess Tournament, just talking about the three titles you hold in your hand is amazing.

"One person can win the title at the same time! Having three titles is a feat that has never been achieved in the history of Chinese Go! Not to mention that it also includes the first title [Chess Saint]!

"You said you are not the leader, who believes this!"

Yes, what Shang Chaotian said is true.

Lei Qi, who already holds the [Chess Saint], is undoubtedly the number one person in the country at the moment, and he is fully worthy of the term "leader"!

Since winning the Spring Orchid Cup in May this year, the young "Future No. 1" has been on a roll:

Winning the King of Kings Championship in May, and winning three games in June With a score of zero, he completely defeated Lin Ruixin, who was obviously in poor condition, and won the [Chess Master].

In July, he won the second Tongge Cup. In August, he defeated Sun Yi 2-0 to defend the [National Player] title. In September, he won the Pinghu Rapid Chess Championship trophy for the second time, breaking the curse of no one winning twice in the past ten years. ...

Three world championships and two runner-ups so far, and three domestic titles in hand.

It is not too much to say that such an achievement is a "leader of a generation".

For this reason, Lei Qi knew that it was not appropriate to be modest, so he no longer struggled with the term "leader of the new generation". But he brought the topic lightly:

“Anyway, I have to keep working hard! Compared with Ryu Se-hyun... I feel that I don’t have any upper hand.

"Ah, Teacher Shang, would you like some tea? If necessary, I'll boil some water first!"

"No, no, no! I'll go back right away!"

Shang Chaotian realized that the topic was a bit off topic. Yuan, and then started talking about the main topic of coming to see the student this time:

"However, besides saying goodbye to you, I also have another thing to ask you - about Rui Zhao. ."

"Rui Zhao?"

"Yes."

Shang Chaotian said worriedly:

"You also know that the title [Zhaojun] is said to be taken from historical allusions, but anyone with a discerning eye knows that it is actually E Er City is tailor-made for Rui Zhao and hopes that Rui Zhao can always hold this title and use her and her title of No. 1 Female in the Country as a new business card for Er City.

"But. , but Rui Zhao's recent performance is really hard to say ideal and erratic. Even now, many people are speculating whether she will lose her title in this Zhaojun competition.

“Although I wanted to ask her about the ups and downs of her grades, she only told me not to worry and didn’t reveal much else.

"But how can I not worry!

" If Ruizhao, the first Zhaojun, loses his title, it would be embarrassing! Not to mention her own public opinion and reputation, even the big sponsor in Or City will be affected!

"So, I thought I would come to you to get to know her better - after all, you have played against her three times in the past six months, and I think we often review and discuss her in private. Maybe you will know something about the situation."

Ah...so that's it...

Then you really asked the right person. After figuring out the teacher's purpose, Lei Qi smiled and said:

"Teacher Shang, you don't have to worry about this.

"Although she hasn't revealed much to me about this matter, it seems to me that she is just trying to change her style recently. That’s all. ”

“Trying to change your style? "Shang Chaotian was obviously a little surprised.

"Yes, judging from her recent competition, it is so. ”

Lei Qi nodded and said:

"If you pay close attention to her recent chess games, you will find that she plays chess now to see what others are doing.

"She uses her Her original fighting style of chess ensures that she can defeat top players every time she competes.

“When she encounters a strong opponent, she will directly test her more radical new style, and she doesn’t care whether she can win the game. In short, she will continue to play the most efficient way, and she behaves very Decisive.

"So, in my opinion. She may feel that her original extreme fighting style is easily targeted when facing the top players. In order to increase her winning rate as much as possible, she is working hard to learn the AI's chess thinking - to be honest, her new style is different from Dai's. The work is actually very close. ”

"Ah this..."

Shang Chaotian was speechless for a while. He was stunned for several seconds before continuing to ask:

"Didn't she behave very well before? Why did she suddenly Want to change the style of chess?

"To say the least, even if she has to change the style of chess, why is she in such a hurry!

“She doesn’t even look at how many people are smearing her outside!”

"Teacher Shang...don't you know her well?"

Lei Qi smiled bitterly:

"With her usual style, even if someone online hacks her, she won't know. "

"..."

Shang Chaotian was silent for a while: What the student said is really right!

At that time, Shi Zhaojun almost never visited any forums and communities. Some external situations and news were basically mentioned only when Ai Jianan felt it was necessary to communicate with her, highlighting the idea of ​​"having no ears to hear things outside the window, and only focusing on the outside world." "In the middle of the pattern".

It is really possible to say that Rui Zhao is unaware of some of the current controversies about her!

Seeing that Shang Chaotian didn't speak, Lei Qi continued to explain:

"...As for why she was so anxious...

"Maybe it was more urgent. Want to improve your strength before a certain competition? ”

"Important match?"

Shang Chaotian couldn't help but wonder:

"Zhaojun fight? Or the Dream Lily Cup at the end of the year?"

"Uh...

“It’s just a guess, I don’t know the details. ”

Lei Qi responded calmly - after all, he only had a vague premonition about some things.

What's more, there are indeed enough controversies about his "strong rival" at the moment. It is really unnecessary for him to reveal some "conjectures" that may cause trouble.

"Well..."

Shang Chaotian pondered:

"In other words, do you think that Zhaojun will be able to defend his title in three rounds of chess? ?”

"Yes."

Lei Qi's answer was without any hesitation or doubt:

"In the past six months, her strength has actually been improving.

"Like Last month in the top 16 of the Pinghu Rapid Chess Tournament, I won a very thrilling victory over her!

“It’s just that she now deliberately plays more fully when facing strong opponents in order to improve her strength more quickly, so she often appears unstable.

"After all, if you want to play the most efficient chess game, you really have to push yourself to the limit."

Hearing this, Shang Chaotian looked slightly relieved, but soon frowned again:

br>
“But how long will she maintain this ups and downs state!

“In the final analysis, playing Go is about winning! Even if, like you said, she wants to improve her strength as much as possible before a certain competition, if she gets used to it, isn't she afraid that she won't be able to adjust? ”

“This shouldn’t happen...”

Lei Qi smiled and said:

“Actually, if you often watch her live broadcasts, you will know...

“Actually, she is not so extreme all the time. "(End of this chapter)
