Chapter 305: With all due respect, there was no famous bureau before me
As soon as the host finished speaking, the North Korean and South Korean team leader Shin Seung-hyun stepped forward and took the microphone from the host.
Shin Seung-hyun faced the camera, looked around, cleared his throat, and said, "Hello everyone, I am Shin Seung-hyun, the leader of the North and South Korean team."
"For this year's team competition, everyone seems to be worried about the North and South Korean teams. After all, last year the strength of the Japanese team was obvious to all, and we narrowly won. This year, the Chinese team has new chess players emerging."
"But, I want to say..."
Shin Seung-hyun paused, then said in a sonorous voice: "We came to this competition just to avenge our previous humiliation!"
"Although we won the championship in the last team competition, it was a shameful championship!"
"In this team competition, we are not only determined to win the championship, we also want to win it beautifully!"
Next to Shin Seung-hyun, two Chinese and Japanese translators were translating Shin Seung-hyun's words simultaneously. When Shin Seung-hyun finished speaking, the audience burst into applause.
"Fuck, so arrogant."
Offstage, a male chess player muttered in a low voice, "We won the championship by beating Japan last year, and they said it was a shameful championship. Doesn't the implication of this mean that we have to shut out the Japanese team this year?"
Zheng Qin couldn't help but look at the Japanese team's support group at this time, and saw that the chess players who came here with the Japanese team all had a grim look on their faces.
Soon, after Shin Seung-hyun finished speaking, the Japanese team leader stepped forward and took the microphone from Shin Seung-hyun.
The Japanese team leader was a man in his forties with thick hair and sharp eyes.
After hearing what Shin Seung-hyun said just now, his expression remained calm. After looking around, he finally said, "Hello everyone, I am Miyamoto Shun, the leader of the Japanese team this time."
"We lost to North Korea and South Korea in the team competition last year, but after a year of hard work, our players are no longer the same as they were before. We are here to win the championship this year!"
"If the North Korean and South Korean teams still look at our chess players with the same eyes as last year, then I believe our chess players will give the North Korean and South Korean teams a big surprise."
"We have won enough championships in the North Korea-ROK team competition. Now... it is time to step down and let others take over!"
Miyamoto Shun paused, then continued: "As for the Chinese team that has been widely discussed this time, I think only Yu Shao and Su Yiming are two players worth watching out for."
When Yu Shao heard Miyamoto Shun mention him, he couldn't help but subconsciously look at Miyamoto Shun.
"However, the only chess game they played that could be considered a good one was the one in the Yingjiao Cup. After all, they lack experience and are definitely no match for us!"
Miyamoto Toshi said loudly: "Therefore, we must win the championship of this year's team competition!"
After hearing what Miyamoto Shun said, not only did the faces of the North and South Korean team supporters change, but the expressions of the Chinese team supporters also suddenly became extremely ugly.
Especially the four people on the stage, Qin Lang, Gu Chuan, Le Haoqiang and Ma Zhengyu, their faces were pale and slightly angry.
Instead, reporters from various countries suddenly became excited, constantly taking pictures with their cameras and pressing the shutter buttons frantically, with flash lights flashing continuously in the hall.
"This year's Japanese team seems to be really impressive!"
A blond, blue-eyed European reporter excitedly said to the cameraman beside him: "Although they often exchange harsh words to build confidence before a match, they are usually not too direct, not to mention that this year is the home game for North and South Korea."
"The Japanese team is determined to win the team championship this year. They have definitely made a lot of preparations for this team competition, and their players' chess skills must have become even more sophisticated!"
The cameraman nodded, with a look of amazement on his face: "It can be seen that the five players of the Japanese team were not moved at all by what Shin Seung-hyun said before. Instead, they became more motivated!"
Most of the reporters in the hall are foreign journalists, and they do not belong to any of the three countries of China, Japan and South Korea. Naturally, they are here to watch the fun and even hope that the bigger the better!
Soon, it was Ma Zhengyu's turn to step forward and give a speech.
Ma Zhengyu let out a long breath, walked slowly to the front, and took the microphone from Miyamoto Shun.
"Mr. Miyamoto Shun said that the only game between Yu Shao 2nd dan and Su Yiming 2nd dan that could be considered a good one was the one in the Yingjiao Cup."
Ma Zhengyu said in a deep voice: "But don't forget, Yu Shao and Su Yiming only became professional chess players this year, and they haven't even played a hundred games yet!"
"In addition to Yu Shao and Su Yiming, Qin Lang, Le Haoqiang, and Gu Chuan are also excellent chess players. I believe their performance will not disappoint everyone's expectations!"
After Ma Zhengyu finished speaking, there was another burst of flashes of light from the audience.
"What Chairman Ma said is a little too soft..."
In the audience, Wu Zhixuan couldn't help but frown and said with some dissatisfaction: "The Korean and Japanese team leaders have said so. Chairman Ma just said this and that's it?"
"well……"
On the side, Wu Shuheng sighed, shook his head, and said, "There's nothing we can do. After all, we haven't achieved any results in the past five years, so it's hard for us to say anything tough."
Hearing this, the atmosphere became a little depressing, and Wu Zhixuan's mood became visibly depressed.
After the three team leaders finished their speeches, it was the turn of the captains from each country to come forward and give their speeches.
Li Junhe took the lead and stepped forward, holding the microphone and said, "Hello everyone, I am Li Junhe, the captain of the North and South Korean teams. First of all, I would like to thank the sponsors of this team competition for their strong support for this team competition."
"In this competition, our North Korean and South Korean teams will definitely live up to everyone's expectations and try their best to play every game well..."
Compared to Shin Seung-hyun, Lee Jun-hyuk's speech was much more official.
Li Junhe finished his words quickly. After Dongshanxun came forward, he looked at Dongshanxun deeply before finally handing the microphone to Dongshanxun.
Toyama Xun took the microphone from Li Junhe, stood in front of the stage, and said: "Hello everyone, I am Japan's captain Toyama Xun. I believe this competition will be an exciting and fierce battle."
"The game I played against Lee Jun Hyuk 7th Dan last year left a deep impression on me. I believe he has been working hard to improve his chess skills this year in preparation for our rematch."
"I also sincerely look forward to fighting him again."
"In addition to Li Junhe, 7th Dan, I also want to play against Yu Shao, 2nd Dan..."
Not long after, Dongshan Xun finally finished speaking. Ma Zhengyu glanced at Yu Shao and reminded him, "Yu Shao, it's your turn."
Yu Shao nodded, quickly walked to the front of the stage, and took the microphone from Dongshan Xun.
Yu Shao held the microphone and looked around the audience, then glanced at Shin Seung-hyun, and finally glanced at Miyamoto Shun, before finally looking away.
"Mr. Miyamoto Shun said that among all the chess games I played, the only one that could be considered a good one was the one I played in the Yingjiao Cup."
Having said that, Yu Shao paused, and then continued: "Maybe it is true."
Hearing this, everyone was stunned and looked at each other.
They just thought that Yu Shao was going to refute what Miyamoto Shun said, saying that he had played other good games, but Yu Shao admitted it? Even Wu Zhixuan, Zheng Qin and others were a little puzzled. They also thought that Yu Shao was going to talk about the game he had played with Su Yiming not long ago, but he didn't.
"But, with all due respect, it seems to me—"
Yu Shao looked calm, looking ahead, and said, "Before me, no chess game in the world could be called a good game."
As Yu Shao's voice fell, everyone in the Chinese team's position below the stage was stunned.
Wu Zhixuan stared at Yu Shao blankly, then her beautiful eyes gradually widened and her mouth gradually opened.
Zheng Qin's mind was blank. He opened his mouth, but his throat seemed to be blocked by something and he couldn't make a sound.
Even Xu Zijin, who had always been relatively calm, was looking at Yu Shao on the stage with an expression of disbelief.
Wu Shuheng swallowed hard, looking at the boy on the stage who was three or four years younger than him. There was only one thought in his mind -
Does he know...what he is talking about?
On the Chinese team side, there was an astonishing silence at this moment!
"But, with all due respect, it seems to me that before me—"
The translator on the stage was translating Yu Shao's words, but after hearing what Yu Shao said, his voice suddenly stopped.
A trace of cold sweat appeared on his face and his expression was horrified. Finally, he raised his head in panic and looked at Ma Zhengyu.
Ma Zhengyu was also confused at this time. Not only Ma Zhengyu, but Qin Lang, Le Haoqiang and Gu Chuan also looked at Yu Shao in disbelief, as if they had seen something incredible.
Even Su Yiming just stared at Yu Shao blankly at this moment.
On the Japanese team, Dongshan Xun, who could understand Chinese, also looked at Yu Shao with shock.
On the South Korean team's side, Shin Seung-hyun couldn't believe his ears at all. He was dazed and his mind couldn't process what was going on. He wondered if he was hallucinating because his Chinese was not good enough.
The other people in the audience looked confused, not knowing what was going on.
"Before me, there was no... no chess game in the world..."
In the end, the translator still sweated coldly as he stumbled over what Yu Shao said in Korean: "It can be called... a good game..."
quiet.
Only silence!
Everyone stared at Yu Shao on the stage in astonishment; the entire place was in shocking silence!
Even the reporters who had been watching the fun forgot to press the shutter button. Their heads were buzzing with shock from these words and they all stood still.
After a moment, a trace of anger appeared on everyone's face, and the whole place suddenly exploded!
"What is he talking about?!"
"What do you mean? There must be a limit to youthful recklessness! Is he crazy?"
"Before him, no chess game could be called a good game? What a joke. Does he mean that in the past four thousand years, there have been so many famous players, so many national players, and there has not been a single chess game that he has watched with such utmost respect?"
"He wants to deny all the games of Go in the past 4,000 years?! He wants to deny all the players of Go in the past 4,000 years, just because of him?"
