Chapter 274: The chess world is shaken
On the other side, near the Northern Chess Academy, in a high-end apartment.
A group of chess players gathered around a chessboard, constantly moving the chess pieces on the board and reconstructing the game.
"Zeng Jun's sticking here was a little slow, but it was hard to detect. However, he still accurately captured the problem of this move."
Kong Zi looked at the chess game with a serious expression and said, "Through the subsequent exchange of jumps and touches, after more than ten moves, the problem of slow moves was magnified."
"It's hard to imagine that someone who has never learned chess can reach this point through self-study."
A man in his early thirties looked at the chessboard intently and said slowly, "It's really exaggerated to be able to use dead pieces to this extent."
On the side, Chen Shan narrowed his eyes slightly, thought for a moment, pointed at the chessboard, and said: "He has exposed a flaw here. If Zeng Jun can attack through entanglement, the white pieces will also be in a difficult battle."
"What if Baizi gives up his piece?"
Among the crowd, Zhu Huaian looked at the chessboard and suddenly asked.
"Abandoned?"
Jiang Changdong frowned, thought for a moment, and then proposed another variation, saying, "It seems that the sacrifice will be very intense, and there will be a complex attack and defense."
They kept reviewing and analyzing the chess game, feeling uneasy.
Even though they have experienced many ups and downs and are veterans of many battles, they still cannot remain calm when faced with the Point Three Three, the Death of the Demon Sword, the Touch of the Small Eyes, the Shoulder Charge to the Worry-Free Corner...
How weird must the thinking be to be able to play this kind of chess?
After a while, a short-haired man in his forties looked at the chessboard with a complicated expression and said, "Winning ten games in a row, this is really... the young are to be feared."
"It's something to be thankful for. We finally have young chess players of this level now."
Hearing this, Zhuang Weisheng finally withdrew his gaze from the chessboard and continued, "It won't be long before he will be sitting opposite us."
"However, the most urgent task now is to prepare for the second game of chess that is about to begin."
…
…
Hokkaido, Japan.
An eighteen-year-old young man with long hair was looking at the computer. The chess record of the Yingjiao Cup final was clearly displayed on the screen. He kept clicking the left button of the mouse, watching every move of the black and white sides.
At this moment, the mobile phone on the computer desk suddenly rang.
Hearing the ringing of his cell phone, the young man finally came to his senses, picked up the phone, took a look, and answered the call: "Hello?"
"Toyama Xun, did you watch the chess final?"
A young voice soon came from the other end of the computer: "My God, ten wins in chess competition, it's amazing, there has never been an example of ten wins in the history of chess competition!"
"Of course I did."
Dongshan Xun turned on the speakerphone, put the phone back on the computer desk, clicked the mouse again, and said, "So I am now re-watching the Yingjiao Cup final."
Seeing this chess record, Dongshan Xun was somewhat moved: "I really can't believe that there are such players among the younger generation of Chinese chess."
"The one from the Yingjiao Cup? That one was really amazing, just like your Huozheng, it was also a world-famous game!"
The young man on the other end of the phone was amazed and jokingly said, "It seems that even though you have made it to the Honinbo tournament, you are feeling the pressure now?"
Dongshan Xun did not deny it. He slid the mouse again, clicked "Next Move", and said, "That's why I really want to play a game with him. I hope he will participate in the China-Japan-Korea Go League in the near future."
…
…
North Korea and South Korea.
Seoul Chess Institute, inside the seminar room.
"Too...too amazing! After Zhu Huaian, there haven't been any young chess players emerging in China for many years, and now someone this amazing has emerged?"
A group of young professional chess players gathered around a chess table, watching the final chess game that had just ended not long ago, with shock still evident on their faces.
"Ten wins in chess?"
Although they watched the entire live broadcast of the chess game, they still felt like they were dreaming.
Even though it was just the first game, it was almost impossible to win ten games in a row.
Because this requires not only extraordinary chess skills, but more importantly, one must be very young. There are very few chess players in the world who can combine these two qualities.
"I don't know if he will participate in the China-Japan-Korea Go League. I originally thought that Li Junhe's only opponent was Dongshan Xun. If he participates, he will also be a big enemy!"
Someone thought of the China-Japan-Korea Go League that will be held soon and couldn't help but speak.
"It's okay. He's the only one on the Chinese team. Not to mention that Li Junhe may not lose, even if he does, there's still——"
A young man at the side shook his head. Halfway through his words, he suddenly realized something and broke out in a cold sweat: "No, two... two."
"The team competition is a five-person competition. If we win three games, we win. If Yu Shao and Su Yiming both participate, then the Chinese team will really become a formidable enemy!"
After hearing this, everyone looked at each other in surprise.
“Although there is pressure, it is interesting now!”
At this time, a young man in the crowd suddenly clenched his fists and said with great anticipation: "Ever since Zhu Huaian and Li Congyou turned 19, we have been competing with Japan for first place in the team competitions in the past few years!"
"Now China has finally regained its spirits. If both of them participate in this year's China-Japan-Korea team competition, it will definitely be very exciting!"
"This will be a battle of talent without any pretense!"…
New York Chess Academy, USA.
"It's already a mess."
A young professional chess player looked at the comments from netizens on his mobile phone with a rather unhappy expression on his face.
"They have played well enough. The ones who feel the most uncomfortable when losing are the chess players themselves, right?"
The other professional chess players standing by also looked a little gloomy.
Finally, everyone fell silent.
After a moment, someone sighed heavily.
"well……"
…
…
The first chess game is completely over.
The impact of this chess game was far beyond imagination. It caused a sensation all over the world and sparked countless heated discussions among people.
Ten wins in chess!
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Even though it was just the first game of chess, it was amazing!
Yu Shao had a good rest in the hotel for a night, returned home the next day, and continued to rest.
During this period, Yu Shao actually had two matches against national players, but he did not participate because of a chess competition.
Although I missed the competition, it was because I wanted to participate in the chess competition.
During the chess competition period and ten days after the end of the competition, all matches of the players participating in the competition need to be replayed.
The reason why the games in the last ten days need to be replayed is to give the players participating in the game some rest time.
As for the prize money for the chess game, it will not be paid out until the end of the second game. After all, the exact amount of the prize money for the chess game is still unknown.
According to the rules of chess competition, if one of the two games is won and the other is lost, the initiator of the game will bear all the prize money. However, if both games are lost, the initiator of the game will bear three times the prize money.
The Yingjiao Cup is over, the chess competition is over, and now Yu Shao’s only competition left is the national team match.
Generally speaking, professional chess players in this world will participate in another competition in addition to the title match unless there is a special reason.
Therefore, after resting at home for two days, Yu Shao had to start considering which competition to sign up for.
"China-Japan-Korea team competition!"
Wu Zhixuan's voice rang out in the headset: "We have lost for five consecutive years since we signed up for this China-Japan-Korea team competition!"
"China-Japan-Korea team competition?"
Yu Shao clicked the mouse and placed the chess piece, suddenly remembering that Zheng Qin seemed to have mentioned this to him before.
"Yes, the China-Japan-Korea team competition is held once a year. The last time we won the runner-up was five years ago, and the last time we won the championship was seven years ago!"
Wu Zhixuan took a deep breath and said, "You are the champion of this year's Yingjiao Cup. You don't have to participate in the preliminaries. You have a spot directly. So, you must sign up for this! Sign up for it! Sign up for it!"
"You sound like a live streamer."
Yu Shao couldn't help but complain: "It's a pity that you don't go to sell goods but come to play chess."
"We've lost so badly in the past few years, always finishing third. We must fight back this year!"
Wu Zhixuan immediately said: "Besides, the key is that the prize money for this match is the most generous. Don't you want to fight with Dongshan Xun, Li Junhe and others? They are just as strong as you!"
Wu Zhixuan used the method of provoking: "Even if you win 20 consecutive games, you will never be able to get the title of the number one young chess player if you don't play a game with them!"
“The best young chess player!”
Wu Zhixuan's tone was full of incitement: "Yu Shao, think about it, are you tempted? If you beat them, and you say you are the strongest chess player of the younger generation, no one will be able to refute you!"
Hearing Wu Zhixuan's words, Yu Shao couldn't help but smile and said, "Even if you win one game, it doesn't mean anything. Unless you can win seven out of the next ten games, no one will recognize you."
"I admit it! I admit it, that's all! As long as you can win!"
On the other end of the headset, Wu Zhixuan said with a smile: "So you are signing up?"
When Wu Zhixuan mentioned the name Dongshanxun, Yu Shao couldn't help but think of the chess game that Zheng Qin had set up for him.
"Okay, then sign up for this."
Yu Shao thought about it and finally spoke.
After deciding which event to sign up for, Yu Shao had nothing to do next. He had just missed two national team matches and there was still some time before the next one.
The second chess competition was scheduled seven days after the first one. It will start in a few days, but the chess academy did not contact him to commentate, probably because they did not plan to let him commentate the first game.
However, after playing chess for ten consecutive days, Yu Shao was happy to rest at home for a few more days, and occasionally play online chess with Xu Zijin, Wu Zhixuan, Le Haoqiang, Zhou De and others.
After spending time together in preparation for the chess competition, Yu Shao and Le Haoqiang and the other eight have become much more familiar with each other. So when Le Haoqiang and the others asked him to play online chess, Yu Shao did not refuse.
It is worth mentioning that when playing online chess with Zhou De, Zhou De finally won after giving up five pieces. He was so excited that he posted five Moments and eight comments that night, which really opened Yu Shao's eyes.
Because there is a second game of chess, the popularity of the game has remained high. The popularity of the first game was already incredibly high, but the second game is even higher.
After all, the twenty chess players who competed in the first game and the twenty chess players who competed in the second game were not of the same level of fame.
Every one of the twenty chess players competing in the second game has a well-known name, and they have played more than one famous game that impressed the world.
Four days passed in a flash.
Finally, as everyone was waiting, the second game of chess began.
