"We are seekers who pursue the highest realm of chess, are we still confined to the boundaries of national borders and ethnic groups and cannot ......?"

The video from the Japanese Chess Academy came to an abrupt end, but the content still seemed to echo in Sun Suhe's ears. He really felt that although this was a meeting discussion within the Japanese Chess Academy, it was undoubtedly extremely convincing for anyone, especially for professional chess players. Facts have also proved that the Chinese Chess Academy has indeed done its best to participate in this grand chess event.

Sun Suhe's thoughts were flying, and he looked up silently at the scenery flying by outside the car window, and the situation seemed to be very different from what he expected. He had preconceived that the Chaoben Fang War must have been secretly promoted by some forces for ulterior purposes. But judging from this video, this is not the case at all, what he sees is not the calculation of intrigues, but the vision and sincerity of the visionaries who have dedicated themselves to the game of Go.

However, this video alone is not enough to support any judgment. And even if it's such a video, the 22nd Bureau is also tightly sealed, if it weren't for the bamboo forest, it would be impossible to get it when you are idle, how deep the water is, don't ask yourself. Sun Suhe bit his lip lightly, let's see what to say later.

The information in the Zhulin report is arranged in chronological order, followed by a voice chat from two staff members within the Chinese Chess Academy. One of them has a strong accent, and the report deliberately and rigorously made a text version to attach to the side, divided into two parties, A and B, and carefully verified, so that Sun Suhe couldn't help but secretly praise that he was professional after all.

A: "So it's settled?"

B: "The above has not been finalized, and many details need to be further negotiated, but I think I will definitely participate." ”

A: "What about the scheduled games and events? Damn, I'm still in charge of the publicity endorsement of a scenic spot, and I really don't know how to talk to other bosses when the time comes. ”

B: "What can I do? Not a level. Don't say anything else, hehe, money alone is far from it, what kind of scenic spot boss can you take out a few dollars?"

A: "A few dollars are also money, and our professional chess players are not some celebrities, do you think endorsements are so easy to talk about?

B: "I said it was according to the highest standards of Japanese title fights. ”

A: "That's a lot. ”

B: "Of course, Japanese chess tournaments are never bad for money. It's no wonder that their chess players don't look down on the prize money of international competitions and concentrate on playing by themselves behind closed doors. ”

A: "Hey, in the past two years, the Japanese chess world has a voice in the international community, and now that artificial intelligence is coming, if the Japanese side closes the door and plays by itself again, maybe there will be no sound in the entire Japanese chess world in the future." ”

B: "Maybe people don't care? Hehe, don't you ignore the wolf-like Chinese and Korean chess players in the international arena, and concentrate on making a lot of money behind closed doors, isn't it good?"

A: "Haha, this kind of talk is pure fart, can you not care? The Japanese have a very strong sense of self-esteem, if they have Gu Li, Li Shiqi, Ke Zhe, and Park Tingheng, can they not bear to compete in the international chess tournament all these years? When Japan had six super-first-class masters, Otake Hero, Lin Haifeng, Kato Masao, Takemiya Masaki, Zhao Zhixun, and Kobayashi Koichi were the best to do. Now, there is only one seven-time champion Yuta Inoue holding up, of course, he can only shrink up. ”

B: "That's the reason, so I look at this super Ben Yin Fang battle, the Japanese chess academy is not small. Maybe we will take advantage of the east wind of artificial intelligence to make a big one. ”

A: "Artificial intelligence, hey, artificial intelligence, I really don't know if the emergence of artificial intelligence is good or bad for us in Go." ”

B: "Whether it's good or bad, the number of people learning chess has increased a lot compared to previous years, and at least there are more people who can understand chess, which is not a bad thing." Do you still remember the five-way chess battle between AlphaGo and Li Shiqi? What are the media reports about? And the joke that AlphaGo's chess shape looks like a dog is serious news is reported in the big newspapers. Really, really speechless. ”

A: "If you don't say this, I'll forget it, and when you say it, I'll get angry." In another basketball game, can you imagine that after Kobe Bryant's whistle killing, the media, fans, and even pseudo-fans did not discuss the Zen master's tactical arrangement, did not discuss the running position of teammates, and did not discuss Kobe's personal ability, but took a pen to draw Kobe's final dribble route, and then talked with relish: Hey, this shape really looks like a black mamba snake (1)! Your uncle, such a 'ball-understanding' remark, I think even pseudo-fans should scoff at it. ”

B: "There's no way, we Go always suffer a loss with a high threshold for appreciation." Like football and basketball, even a complete layman can understand the goal score, and he can also appreciate what it means to have a picturesque posture. Hey, it's not good to play Go, people who know chess see the beauty and slap their thighs together, and people who don't know chess can only see a 'dog'. ”

A: "However, it can't be said that it is a complete loss, our unique cultural heritage of Go is not comparable to other sports, once it can set off a cultural boom, it is another matter." Thinking that Nie Lao single-handedly turned the tide in the Sino-Japanese Go Tournament and suddenly became a national hero, it set off a Go boom that swept the whole country, and our Chinese Go community is still deeply affected today. ”

B: "There is also South Korea's Cho Xun Hyun Cao Guoshou, the game of chess in Singapore (2), if he hadn't upset Nie Lao and became a sensational national hero in South Korea, he would not have set off the Go fever in South Korea, maybe there would be no Da Li Xiao Li (3) dominating the world chess scene for more than ten years." Hey, that's pretty heart-wrenching. ”

A: "It's far away, it's far away, speaking of this super Ben Yin Fang battle, even the Ben Yin Fang title has been taken out, it seems that the Japanese Chess Academy is really ambitious and wants to set off a trend." ”

B: "Not only the title, but I've heard that the champion will not only get the title of Honinbo, but also a prize of 100 million yen. ”

A: "100 million?"

B: "Yen, yen." ”

A: "Oh, I almost scared people to death, how much is that? ”

B: "How do I know, can't you just use your mobile phone to calculate the exchange rate?" But I've heard that it's more than twice as much as the Ying Cup. ”

A: "More than twice as much? The Ying Cup is already the international chess tournament with the highest prize money, the championship is 400,000 US dollars, more than twice as much, my good man, then it will cost 5 million yuan, to say the least." ”

B: "So, you have to lean back for any other competition activities, and it's a shame for you to take out the endorsement of the scenic spot." ”

A: "Get out, you don't have a backache when you stand and talk, and it's not you who is going to talk to the boss, get out of your mother's house." ”

B: "Hahaha, I'll get out, how about it, make an appointment for dinner in the evening?"

A: "You're in for a treat?"

B: "Otherwise, let's play a game of rapid chess on our mobile phones, and whoever loses will be treated." ”

A: "What you said, don't go back, haha, this meal, you have decided." ”
