Chapter 129: Another Year of "Hope Cup"
After the end of the US Open, the ATP tennis tour in September is an ATP 250 level event, although most of them are in Asia, but Li Cai is too lazy to participate, first, there are no great masters, and he always feels that he is out of grade when he runs to participate; second, if the game is too frequent, he is tired and prone to injury.
If you want to make money, you can consider it, but you don't lack this money, and Dad Li gives more pocket money than this. And if you go to get points and prepare to surpass the world No. 1 Djokovic, the match points are too few, and the hard work of participating in four or five low-level matches can only be worth one Masters points.
Therefore, Li Cai did not have any reason to participate in the competition in September, and studied Go directly at home to cultivate his self-cultivation.
Of course, there is another thing that affected Li Cai and made Li Cai not want to go out. On the day at the end of the US Open, a major event happened in the United States, which attracted attention, and the news that Li Cai and Sister Na won the championship will be boasted by the domestic media for a long time.
In October, the tennis open in Beijing began, however, Li Cai did not participate, because there are no great masters, too lazy to participate, not to mention, the second "Hope Cup" Go competition is also about to start, Li Cai, as the champion of the first session, the defender, also attended the opening ceremony of the tournament and watched the game.
At the opening ceremony, Li Cai, as a defender, naturally expressed his opinions.
"I hope that this tournament can follow the rules of the tournament and show the demeanor and morality that a chess player should have. ”
When he said this, Li Cai looked at Park Yanheng, who was qualified for the competition.
In the Fujitsu Cup and Chunlan Cup in the first half of the year, the two Go world champions decided were Korean chess players, one is still the old opponent Lee Sedol, and the other is a new generation of Korean chess players.
Park Yanheng also saw Li Cai signaling and warning him with his eyes, it didn't matter, he was not afraid that Li Cai would tell what happened on the Internet.
At this time, Park Yanheng's strength was much stronger than at the beginning, and he naturally swelled up, not taking Li Cai in his eyes, and just treating Li Cai's warning coldly, not worrying at all.
"Hmph, I'm no longer the original Park Yanheng, Li Cai, you still want me to have two sons, this is impossible, I will definitely defeat you and get the 50 million bonus." ”
Seeing that Park Yeon-heng also qualified for the competition, he didn't take his warning to heart. Li Cai sighed in his heart: "Sure enough, Korean chess players are all shameless people, Park Yanheng, the king of fillers, can actually win the championship, I really can't understand why Korean chess players are so arrogant." After a while, the scars were healed and the pain was forgotten, and I didn't teach them a few years, so I didn't know how thick the sky was. ”
In the entire Korean chess player, in Li Cai's opinion, only Cao Yanzi and Li Shifo are not only strong, but also have good chess quality.
For the duel between these two people, although Li Cai hopes that Park Yanheng will be promoted, he will humiliate him again, he does not have a long memory, and he will "fill in" at the Asian Games, but judging from the ability value displayed by the system query, Park Yanheng still has to be a little worse if he wants to win his senior brother Lee Sedol.
Li Cai inquired and found that Park Yanheng's Go ability value reached 94 points, which is already a super-first-class peak level, but his senior brother Lee Sedol is more powerful than him, although the strength of Go has decreased slightly, but he still maintains the strength when he played with Li Cai in April, and the Go ability value is as high as 95 points, and it can reach 96 points when he is in good condition.
Although both of them came out of the same dojo and were both apprentices of Kwon Jialong, Kwon Jialong valued Lee Sedol more than Park Yeon-hyung.
Although Kwon Jialong did not have a record of shooting, and his Go rank was only seven dans, because it was the first Go classroom in South Korea and the first person to open a dojo, he received a large number of apprentices, and after Lee Sedol and others became famous, it became one of the three major dojos in Korea.
However, among the first batch of apprentices personally trained by Kwon Jialong, chess players such as Lee Sedol 9 Dan, Choi Zhehan (Choi Viper) 9 Dan, Won Sung-kyun and Kang Dong Yun 9 Dan were also trained. And Park Yanheng was the latter group to enter, and the training model of the Quan Jialong Dojo became a Spartan-style education, which was completely "devil training", and was strict with the disciples, but when treating ordinary students, he even physically punished the students and broke the stick, and Park Yanheng was one of them.
Naturally, Park Yeon-hyung felt resentful of Kwon Jia-ryong and felt that the treatment was unfair, you know, Lee Sedol was more arrogant and arrogant than Park Yeon-heng, and even offended the entire Korean chess academy and was banned.
But Kwon Jialong used to be the director of the Korean Chess Academy, and he was re-elected, and he helped Lee Sedol say a lot of good things to be able to compromise so quickly, otherwise, with Lee Sedol's character, he could only play in China, and it was impossible to play in China.
Kwon Jialong treated him differently, naturally it was related to Lee Sedol's achievements, in the Go World Competition, Lee Sedol won a lot of championships and chased after Lee Sedol, and although Park Yeonheng was a genius at the time, he did not have a good record, so he would naturally be scolded and beaten.
In Kwon Jialong, a person who has not achieved results in the Go World Championship, Lee Sedol's ability to achieve such great achievements is naturally related to his careful teaching, and he will naturally support him, a "proud protégé", and Park Yeonheng, what are you, you have to suffer if you are beaten.
The relationship between the seniors and seniors in South Korea is very strict, and the elders can only bear it if they beat you, and you can't complain at all, unless you are famous, like Lee Sedol, and have made such great achievements in the international arena, you can resist.
Otherwise, with Lee Sedol's fiery temper and ugly foul mouth, Quan Jialong will be cut off before he can hit it.
This is all Lee Sedol's fame and achievements, so that Quan Jialong does not dare to beat him.
South Korea is a country that likes to boast, be cheeky, and have no bottom line.
Some Korean stars, who made a bad movie in Hollywood in the United States, hit the street so much that they didn't want it, and they didn't even play a starring role, but just one of the supporting roles, and when they returned to China, they would be called international superstars, enjoying the treatment of national attention, and all kinds of media touted it brainlessly and praised it to the sky.
And South Korea's achievements in sports will also be hyped up, known as the first in Asia, and Lee Sedol has made so many achievements in international Go competitions, it will naturally be touted, and Lee Sedol's record in China can be said to be outrageously weak, basically he has not won any titles, and he is even inferior to his junior brother Park Yeonheng.
This also led to a bad relationship between the two people, they were very cold when they met, they were both virtuous, and they were like twenty-five or eighty-thousand.
Of course, this may also be the reason why a master taught him, among the several apprentices of Kwon Jialong, Lee Sedol, Choi Viper, Jiang Dongrun, Won Sung-kyun, and Park Yeon-heng are all virtuous and arrogant.
Compared with the apprentice taught by Cao Yanzi, Li Shifo, it can be said that there is a world of difference.
Cao Yanzi's master and apprentice, both in terms of their achievements in Go and their morality in Go, are much stronger than Quan Jialong's master and apprentice.
Sure enough, the upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, what kind of master has what kind of apprentice, Mr. Cao Yanzi is the Neon country's Go master Se Yue Xianzuo, and Master Wu Qingyuan is the same door, it is a brother relationship, it can be said that the accepted Go character and etiquette are excellent, there will be such a high achievement, the apprentice Li Shifo is also so good, the master and apprentice have suppressed two generations of Chinese chess.
And Kwon Jialong's master and apprentice are all the same, and if they achieve a little achievement, they will be crazy and boundless, even if they are inferior to their opponents in terms of performance, they must say that they will win their opponents and give full play to South Korea's shamelessness to the extreme.
The first round of the qualifiers for the "Hope Cup" began, and the matchup looked interesting, but they were all Koreans, and there were no Chinese, which made Li Cai feel a little disappointed and felt too uncompetitive.
However, Li Cai is not worried, even if they get the world championship for a year, they will not be able to win the championship in the "Hope Cup" competition, and can only watch the huge amount of 50 million bonuses fall into the hands of Li Cai.
Because there is no Sino-Korean duel that he wants to watch, Li Cai doesn't want to watch the game process in the viewing room, and plans to wait for the result directly.
In Li Cai's opinion, he is not his opponent anyway, and the result has long been doomed.
