On the first day of the new year, also on February 20, Su Rui got up early. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Today, he was going to a Go tournament, which was a very unexpected arrangement.

This game is the annual Go "Lunar New Year Cup", which is a game arranged by Chen Xing of Tianxing Go Dojo for Su Rui, and it will be held today.

Originally, Su Rui was reluctant to participate in this competition, because the "Lunar New Year Cup" was held in the capital in previous years.

At this time of the Chinese New Year, he didn't want to fly to the capital, and he didn't want to do this if Su Xiao and Lin Shiyi were in Shenzhou City.

However, this year's Go "Lunar New Year Cup" was held in Shenzhou City, which made Su Rui change his attention and decided to participate in this Lunar New Year Cup.

After getting up, Su Rui saw that he had received a lot of text messages on his mobile phone, all of which were New Year's greeting messages, and he replied to them one by one.

After that, he began to wash and change clothes, and then had breakfast.

After preparing everything, Su Rui left home, and the people who accompanied him were Su Xiao and Lin Shiyi.

When Su Xiao knew that he was going to participate in the annual Go "Lunar New Year Cup", she was still very surprised, because she knew that this kind of competition was not for everyone to participate in, and the players who could be selected were the top Go players in China.

Indeed, Su Rui won the Chunlan Cup, LG Cup and Samsung Cup successively, and only then did he qualify for the "Lunar New Year Cup" of Go.

In Zhenguo, Go masters are doubled, if it is just an ordinary professional Jiudan, Wan Wan is not eligible to participate in the "Lunar New Year Cup", and only some professional Go players who rank in the top few points are likely to be qualified.

In order to allow Su Rui to participate in this year's "Lunar New Year Cup", Chen Xingke has made a lot of efforts in it.

After all, in the huge Zhenguo, there are so many chess players, so only one person can participate in the competition, and so many people compete for a place, and the competition is naturally very fierce.

Fortunately, Su Rui won so many Go championships in the previous year that he was able to beat other competitors and earn a place in the "Lunar New Year Cup".

In Su Xiao's view, his qualification to participate in the Go "Lunar New Year Cup" is a very honorable thing, which is not something that ordinary people can do.

Today, Su Xiao finally understood that Su Rui's achievements in Go were no longer achievable by ordinary people, and it also made her even more proud to have such a younger brother.

With such an important game, Su Xiao naturally hopes to watch the game on the spot and support Su Rui on the spot.

In this regard, of course, Su Rui was very happy to let Su Xiao go to the scene together, as a contestant, it was no problem to get a few admission tickets, so he brought Lin Shiyi out with him.

After coming to the competition site, he found that there were still a lot of people at the scene, some of them were staff, and the rest were spectators.

This year's "Lunar New Year Cup", as in previous years, invited Japanese and Korean chess players to participate, which means that there are a total of three players, one each from Japan and South Korea, and a total of three matches will be played.

The difference is that in previous years, the "Lunar New Year Cup" would be held in three days, with the finals on the third day, but this year there will be three matches but on one day, two in the morning and one final in the afternoon.

Perhaps because the venue of the competition has been changed from the capital to Shenzhou City, the schedule has also changed somewhat.

In addition, this year's "Lunar New Year Cup" is no different from previous years, using a rapid chess system, and the championship prize money has been increased to 1.88 million yuan, the runner-up prize is 800,000 yuan, and the third place is also 400,000 yuan.

The players participating this time, in addition to Su Rui, there is also a Korean chess player Li Shiyue, and Japanese player Murakawa Daliao, the former is a professional nine-dan, the latter is a professional eight-dan, of course, this is the official rating, the real level can not be judged by the professional rank alone.

No matter what rank the opponent is, Su Rui has to win the championship, he has no interest in the runner-up and the third runner-up, he is here to participate in this competition for the championship, no matter who the opponent is.

However, he does have the strength to say this, who said that he has a level 12 Go skill, and it is difficult to find a player who can match him.

On the TV station, after Su Rui met two contestants, he used the detection function of the life modifier to check their skill levels.

As a result, he found that South Korea's Lee Thi Yue's Go skills were level 11, while Japan's Murakawa Dailiao was level 10, both of which were at the level of a professional nine-dan.

From the skill level of Japanese player Murakawa Daliao, it can be seen that Japan can indeed decline in Go, and among the top chess players, it has lost to Zhen and South Korea, otherwise, the Japanese players who came to participate in the competition would not only have 10-level Go skills.

Although the level 10 Go skill is already very powerful, it is definitely not a top chess player, which shows that it is difficult for Japan to have a top chess player, so Murakawa Dailiao was sent.

As for the Korean chess player Lee Thi Yue, he has 11-level Go skills, which is still much better than the Japanese player.

It's just that in Su Rui's eyes, whether it is an 11-level Go skill or a 10-level Go skill, there is not much difference, it is impossible to win him anyway, and he has absolute confidence that he will not lose.

Soon, the first match began, and the contestant was Su Rui vs. Japan's Dailiao Murakawa.

In the first game, Su Rui played very fast, and as soon as the opponent finished playing, he would immediately follow, and it would never take more than a few seconds before and after, depending on how fast his hand was, as if he had not thought about it.

For him, who has a level 12 Go skill, this kind of rapid chess makes it easier for him to play.

Because, when playing slow chess, the opponent has too much time to think, can take into account many aspects, and can play in a better position, which makes Su Rui spend more time to defeat the opponent, relatively speaking, it is impossible to win so quickly.

In this kind of rapid chess game, the opponent does not have much time to think, and it is easy to miss something, but it makes it easier for him to lay out and make the opponent lose faster.

Therefore, in today's game, Su Rui played very easily, and it seemed that he played chess without thinking about it, but in fact, he thought quickly and calculated every move in advance, and the speed of chess was naturally very fast.

There is a two-level difference between the level 10 Go skill and the level 12 Go skill, and the difference in level is also huge.

In the face of Su Rui's opponent, this Japanese player Murakawa Daliao did not have much strength to resist at all, and it didn't take long for him to lose all the games, and there was no possibility of a comeback.

In the end, the player had to throw in the towel early and end the match.

Therefore, Su Rui won the first match and will participate in the afternoon final, and the opponent should be South Korea's Lee Thi Yue.
