Chapter 340 The Great Chess Player (please vote for me!)
The National Masters Tournament will be held at the Eastern Chess Institute in Donghai City, while the Grand Chess Players Tournament will be held in Jiangling.
Three days later.
The Grand Chess Championship finally kicked off in the southern region.
"Today is Su Yiming's first title match, and his opponent is... Han Ying, 9th Dan!"
On the corridor of the chess academy, Ding Huan took a deep breath and hurried to the chess talk room. Thinking of Su Yiming's opponent today, he felt a mixed emotion of anticipation and nervousness.
"Yu Shao 3rd Dan faced Li Congyou 8th Dan in his first match, and Su Yiming faced Han Ying 9th Dan. I don't know who will win."
Soon, Ding Huan arrived at the door of the chess room, gently pushed it open, and immediately saw two chess players sitting on both sides of the chess table.
On the left side of the chess table, sat a young man who was about seventeen or eighteen years old. He was wearing a white shirt, had messy hair, and had a calm look in his eyes.
On the right side of the chess table sat a middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, wearing a black suit, tall and burly, with a solemn expression.
There is a calligraphy piece with the words "Sitting and Discussing Taoism" hanging on the wall. The handwriting is vigorous and powerful, with dragons flying and phoenixes dancing. The two people are sitting opposite each other under the calligraphy piece, and a sense of confrontation is already giving rise to them.
Su Yiming, yes, Han Ying!
Seeing this scene, Ding Huan almost held his breath involuntarily, and even slowed down his movements as he walked into the chat room, becoming more cautious.
Ding Huan looked at the chessboard and saw that only a few moves had been made. He immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately, it didn't rain too fast."
Ding Huan quickly walked to the press box next to the referee's seat, sat down, and looked at the chessboard.
"This layout... Mr. Han Ying plays black, San San and Xiao Mu, Su Yiming plays white, and Xiao Mu is wrong."
Seeing Han Ying's move of occupying the corner with three-three tactics at the beginning of the game, he would have been shocked a year ago, but now Ding Huan was surprisingly calm.
It's just like the normal way of playing the game, which is three-three corner.
At this time, it was Han Ying's turn to play chess. Han Ying looked at the chessboard with great concentration, as if the chessboard was the only thing in his eyes. After a moment, he finally picked up the chess piece and slowly put it down.
Seeing Han Ying make his move, Su Yiming quickly picked up his piece and placed it on the board.
Ding Huan watched the two of them take turns making moves. After watching a few moves, he couldn't help but secretly glance at Han Ying, feeling a little puzzled.
"At the beginning, the ninth-dan chess player who partnered with Su Yiming in the Xinhuo Battle was Teacher Han Ying."
"The Xinhuo Battle can be said to be a battle where top chess players mentor new players, and Teacher Han Ying was the mentor at that time."
"I never expected that Su Yiming, who was just starting out as a professional chess player, would make it to the title match in the blink of an eye and compete with Teacher Han Ying."
"He has even reached the point where even if Teacher Han Ying tries his best, he may not be able to win."
"Facing such an opponent, Mr. Han Ying must be feeling very complicated at this moment."
Ding Huan looked at the scorekeeper and referee beside him, and saw that their expressions were somewhat strange. They glanced at Han Ying from time to time, and then looked at Su Yiming from time to time.
However, as the number of chess pieces increased and the situation became more and more complicated, everyone in the chess talk room gradually lost all other thoughts and became immersed in the game.
"The situation is extremely tense. At this point, the game is still evenly matched. No one has an advantage."
Ding Huan looked at the chessboard, saw the situation of the game, and thought silently in his heart.
"Although the situation is split, it is difficult to tell who is better, but Su Yiming's chess style is very similar to Shen Yi's. They are both good at managing the middle part of the belly and forming a big pattern. But in this game, I am afraid that it will be impossible to form a pattern."
"Teacher Han Ying is worthy of being the holder of the previous Tianyuan title. He is still so strong. It seems that there is still a certain gap between Su Yiming and Teacher Han Ying..."
At this moment, Han Ying looked at the chessboard, and after a long consideration, he finally picked up the chess piece again and slowly put it down.
clatter! Twelve columns and fifteen rows, sharp!
"He used the tip, but Teacher Han Ying was still so steady and cautious. He could have gone all out, but he still used the most stable and solid tip, leaving no flaws and not giving his opponent any chance to take advantage."
Ding Huan was calculating the subsequent situation in his mind, and he was a little curious: "I don't know what Su Yiming will do, will he choose to stick with me?"
However, to Ding Huan's surprise, seeing Han Ying's sharp move, Su Yiming actually fell into long thought! This move is the most stable response, but it should not be difficult for White to respond. For example, Ding Huan's idea of sticking to fill the breakpoint is definitely not a bad move.
However, Su Yiming happened to be lost in long thought, a place where he shouldn't be thinking for a long time.
Time passes by every second.
Five full minutes had passed and Su Yiming still hadn't made a move.
Everyone in the chat room was still waiting patiently.
Soon, another ten minutes passed.
Su Yiming still didn't play chess.
Seeing this, Ding Huan finally showed a look of surprise on his face, and the referee and the music notator beside him also looked at each other with surprised and confused expressions.
"Although how to use the time in the competition is up to the chess players themselves, but in this place where you shouldn't think for a long time, you think for a full fifteen minutes..."
Ding Huan's mind was full of questions, and he looked at the chessboard in confusion: "What is he thinking? How else does he want to play this move? Can he play a flower?"
Han Ying also frowned slightly at this time, looking at the chessboard, with his hands on his chest, waiting for Su Yiming to make his move.
Finally, after another five minutes, and after thinking for nearly twenty minutes, Su Yiming finally reached into the chess box, picked up the chess piece, and slowly put it down.
clatter! Seven columns and fourteen rows, damn! "Damn it?"
Seeing the answer Su Yiming gave after thinking for nearly twenty minutes, the expressions of everyone in the chat room became even more surprised.
"After thinking for so long, the only thing you ended up with is such a mediocre move?"
Ding Huan felt a little disappointed for a moment. He originally thought that Su Yiming had some amazing tricks up his sleeve, but in the end, he just used the most ordinary trick.
This trick is similar to the one he had thought of before. They are both very common methods and the easiest ones to think of.
Seeing Su Yiming's move after so much consideration, Han Ying was a little surprised, but he quickly picked up the chess piece and put it down quickly.
And this time, as if to make up for the twenty minutes spent on thinking before, almost at the moment Han Ying made his move, Su Yiming picked up the chess piece and placed it on the chessboard.
clatter! clatter! clatter! Soon, after more than ten moves, Han Ying picked up the chess piece again and put it down.
clatter! Sixteen columns and seven rows, jump! “Click!”
The sound of chess pieces colliding rang out immediately! The next moment, Su Yiming stared at the chessboard and took out a chess piece from the chess box.
The chess piece fell into the intricate chessboard, just like a new star appeared in the Milky Way! clatter! Seven columns and eleven rows! rush! Seeing this move, Han Ying was slightly stunned, then his face turned pale in an instant, and his ears turned red! Ding Huan was also stunned for a moment, his head buzzing. He looked at the chessboard in disbelief, looking at the white piece that had just fallen, as if he was looking directly into the sunlight! "...Su Yiming."
"Of course, Black's moves were very steady and solid, but this one move defeated Black and helped him break out of the encirclement!"
"This move, the timing is just right!"
Suddenly, Ding Huan thought of Su Yiming's almost instantaneous move, and seemed to realize something.
"No……!"
"Maybe, the timing wasn't perfect!"
“He created the opportunity!”
"Because he sees further than all of us, that's why he takes so long to take the test!"
"He has already calculated all the changes just now!"
"When he thinks for twenty minutes and makes that one good move, he decides the whole game—"
"I see through it all!"
On the chessboard, black and white chess pieces are still falling alternately!
clatter! clatter! clatter! …
…
I don’t know how much time passed.
Inside the chessboard room, everyone was staring blankly at the chessboard not far away.
On the chessboard, the black and white chess pieces are densely scattered, intricate and dazzling.
Especially in the middle of the chessboard, the two sides launched a heroic battle. The four large black pieces were completely divided. Although the white pieces were also riddled with holes, they still surrounded and killed all four black pieces!
Obviously, the white pieces formed an unprecedented situation in the middle of the board, forcing the black pieces to take the risk of breaking into it, and the two sides thus launched a bloody battle of encirclement and breakout! This seemingly tragic ending seemed like a lose-lose situation for both sides, but everyone in the chat room felt terrified.
In the end, although the black chess pieces fought to the death, they were ultimately defeated! Yes, this is indeed a lose-lose situation, but the problem is, if both sides suffer losses and eventually win a miserable victory, is that also within the expectations of White? ! If you look at this game of chess from this point of view, the feeling will be very different, and you will just feel chilling!
Ding Huan watched Han Ying slowly reach into the chess box, grab two black pieces, and then reach his hand to the center of the chessboard.
Loosen your hands.
clatter! clatter! Two black pieces fell onto the chessboard.
Han wins and resigns.
The game is over.
Until Su Yiming packed up the chess pieces and turned to leave, Ding Huan still sat there, staring at the chessboard not far away, in a daze.
"Su Yiming..."
Ding Huan looked at Su Yiming's chess game not far away, and the horrific suicide game between Yu Shao and Li Congyou three days ago emerged in his mind.
"Yu Shao..."
"Both of them won their first battles to become top Go players. They stood firm by defeating two top players!"
"It's only been one year since their debut, but one after another, all the chess players have chosen to give up and bowed their heads in front of them!"
"They are climbing towards the top of the Go pyramid at an astonishing speed!"
"What will the future of Go look like?"
"What kind of game will these two play next?"
"When will it be, and in what capacity?"
Ding Huan stared at the blank chessboard not far away, thinking blankly.
"The last game they played was between two-dan players."
"Will the next game be played as...the title holder?"
