Chapter 181: How Far Can We Go?

At 4:40 p.m., Li Xiangping, who had already taken over the game from his own plug-in, fell to the 182nd hand in the overall game.

This is the final winner of the game!

It's also a clever move.

It's just that this trick is different from other tricks, this move looks too ordinary, it can't be as eye-catching as Mr. Zhao Zhixun's "two Pivots" just now, and it can't be as eye-catching as Lao Shi's previous move "Ear Red Trick".

All in all, Li Xiangping's move does not seem to have the temperament of a good move, and when this move was first passed to the viewing room, many chess players did not even understand what this move meant at the first time.

Of course, this is not to say that the level of these chess players is not good, the main thing is that Li Xiangping's move is really ordinary, an ordinary "small tip", and his "small tip" is not such a classic "small tip" in Go like "Xiuce's small tip", but a very ordinary and very big "small tip" that appears in the middle of the chessboard.

And the reason why everyone didn't understand the intention of this move in the first time is mainly because a robbery has just ended on the chessboard, and after a series of dazzling transformations, then in everyone's subconscious, they think that it should be the time to finally divide the territory.

And Li Xiangping's "small tip" does not seem to have any mesh value, nor does it look like a stereotyped means of dividing the territory, so what does he mean?

"Huh! What does this move mean......"

Soon some chess players noticed something wrong, and they noticed something wrong, it was really not because of Li Xiangping's chess, everyone mainly saw a few chess moves behind Mr. Zhao Zhixun, and then they felt that the situation was wrong.

Faced with the "small tip" of white's move, black actually made three consecutive moves to "play the check".

It is precisely because of Mr. Zhao Zhixun's continuous "fighting" that everyone feels wrong---- you have to know who Lao Zhao is? The "Seven Chess Devils" in the Japanese chess world, a well-known expert in counting seconds, is known as a character who can maintain more than 100 accurate hands in a row in the sound of counting.

So a person like him continues to "fight generals", first of all, he is definitely not in the eye, you must know that a "fight" can extend the thinking time by one minute, and three "fights" can win 3 minutes for yourself. For Lao Zhao, in a situation like today, 3 minutes is enough for him to click more than 3 times.

Secondly, it is impossible for him to conceive a new battle plan, you must know that there are now more than 180 hands, there is no place to open up a new battlefield on the chessboard, and after the end of the robbery just now, everyone thinks that black chess has a clear advantage, so for the current Mr. Zhao Zhixun, opening up a new battlefield is neither a venue nor necessary.

So the only reasonable explanation for his continuous "fighting" is; Lao Zhao found a problem at this time, and he found that this step of "Xiaojian" was difficult to deal with!

After a few more minutes, everyone in the viewing room finally discovered the problem, and they found that this step of the "little tip" was indeed difficult to deal with, and it could even be said that there was no response!

As soon as this "small tip" appeared on the chessboard, the "little tail" that seemed to have been cut off by the black chess just now still had a way to live, and it could be relied on by this "small tip" to go home safely and smoothly.

What does it mean that little tail is even coming home? It means that the series of efforts that black made from that "second pass" now seems to be a wasted basket.

It means that the last robbery material that Mr. Zhao Zhixun just found now looks like a "blind robbery".

When everyone in the research room figured out all the subsequent changes, all the Japanese chess players present were silent, and one of the young chess players, who looked like a college student, muttered softly:

"It's a pity Mr. Zhao, this game of chess turned out to be lost in a blind robbery."

And at this time, although Masaki Takemiya's face was not very good-looking, he still glanced at the chess player:

"Oh, do you think that's a robbery? In front of such a hidden skill, do you think it is a blind robbery? ”

The young chess player stopped talking, indeed, although from the results, Mr. Zhao Zhixun did find a blind robbery just now, but the blind robbery is also divided into three, six, nine and so on, his move is not a low-level mistake, he just didn't count this hidden means of contact, and not only him, but so many chess players in the research room didn't count it.

So from this point of view, it is not so much that he lost in the blind robbery, but rather that he lost in Li Xiangping's clever move.

"Alas, although it is a bit regrettable, but Zhixun generally lost unjustly, and he was able to make this step "Xiaojian", as well as the previous step "Similar to the Ear Red Hand", this Chinese genius, tsk..... Okay, guys, I'll go first, and in short, I enjoyed a good game of chess today. ”

It was Mr. Dazhu Hero who said this, and after saying this, his old gentleman Shi Shiran drifted away. With his departure, the game soon ushered in the endgame, and in the game room, Mr. Zhao Zhixun saw that the situation was unsustainable, and he chose to admit defeat with great grace.

After a brief review, after Mr. Zhao Zhixun also left, Li Xiangping couldn't hide his excitement:

"Hahaha Brother Ding'an, what do you think of my "little tip"? ”

"Yes, yes, Ding'an is not as good, by the way, Xiangping Xiaoyou, how did you come up with this at that time?"

Li Xiangping smiled silently, it's really not that he didn't want to pretend to be forced and didn't want to brag in front of his plug-in, but he couldn't tell how he thought of this trick at that time.

If you really want to be more serious, then Li Xiangping thinks that it may be his recent training method that has greatly improved his ability to calculate the road and prune. For example, when I was calculating whether the "little tail" of white could escape, I found that no matter what kind of escape route was designed, that point was a key position, and as long as that point was occupied by black, white seemed to be unable to do it.

It is for this reason that that point caught his attention, and he used reverse thinking to discard all other useless calculations, and finally all the calculations revolved around that point.

The result was very good, and in the end, he really found the right solution.

"Hahaha Ding'an, you don't want to ask me how to find a good move, but you need to be vigilant, you look at this game, you played such a delicate hand in the middle game, and in the end you almost lost, don't you need to reflect?"

"Well, Ding'an province, I think the key to this game is still in the prelude, it is precisely because the prelude is behind, so although it is good in the middle of the game, in fact, it still leaves hidden dangers, the opponent is not right, once the next right, then the second half of the hard battle is inevitable, so Ding'an in the future, or need to find a way to continue to improve in terms of layout."

"Hey, hey, you know."

After pretending to be forced in front of his plug-in for a while, Li Xiangping got up and went to the viewing room next door, and while accepting everyone's congratulations, he also looked at the situation of the other games.

When he came to the viewing room next door, Chang Hao was already inside, after all, his opponent in this round was an amateur chess player, and it was an amateur chess player from Europe and the United States, so his victory was a matter of course.

Li Xiangping plus Chang Hao, now there are two Chinese chess players who have broken into the semifinals, so now, Li Xiangping's focus is to pay attention to the game of another Chinese chess player, Wang Lei's eighth section.

Wang Lei's eighth opponent today is Li Canghao, this is not long ago after the "Samsung Cup" round of 16, the two met in the World Series for the second time this year, Li Xiangping still remembers that in the last game of chess, Li Canghao slaughtered Wang Lei a big dragon, which also caused everyone to discuss whether Li Canghao's chess style has changed.

When Li Xiangping went in to watch, this game of chess had only reached more than 150 hands, but although the number of hands was not much, the battle on the chessboard was extremely fierce. Wang Lei is nicknamed "Yeli Ganhong", and it is very normal for him to like to fight, but judging from this game of chess, Li Xiangping thinks that it is really not groundless to say that Li Canghao is quietly changing his style.

A little more than 5 o'clock in the afternoon, in addition to Wang Lei's game, another game of quarterfinals ended earlier, and the two sides of that game of chess were Liu Chonghe Jiuduan and Wang Mingwan Jiuduan, and the final result was that Wang Mingwan Jiuduan won.

Liu Chonghe, who had just lost the "Fujitsu Cup" final not long ago, did not seem to have recovered his senses, and he was sleepwalking in the whole game today, and was easily defeated by Wang Jiuduan.

At around 5:30 p.m., the final set of the match ended, and after a big scuffle, it was Li Canghao who finally had the upper hand and grabbed the last semi-final spot.

In this way, the top four players of the first "Toyota Cup" were all produced, namely Li Xiangping, Chang Hao, Li Canghao and Wang Mingwan.

Although this game was won very hard, and it was the closest Shi Da chess saint came to losing in this year's competition, in any case, Li Xiangping still holds the record of surviving in all world championships so far.

The draw for the semifinals was held that night, because there were two Chinese players in the semi-finals, so Li Xiangping's opponent could only be between Li Canghao and Wang Mingwan.

When the lottery was drawn, everyone opened their eyes to see if Li Xiangping, the "future overlord", could draw the "current king" Li Canghao.

It's a pity that everyone was disappointed, when Li Xiangping unfolded the small note in his hand, he and Wang Mingwan's hands in the ninth section shook together.

The semi-finals of the "Toyota Cup" this time were a one-game decision, and when it came to the finals, it became a three-way chess, and the semi-finals of Li Xiangping and Wang Mingwan Jiudan were not far away, and they were held in early October a month later.

Before this match, Lao Shi still has two sets to play, which are the quarterfinals of this year's "LG Cup" and "Samsung Cup". So Li Xiangping didn't stop, and soon after returning from Japan, he immediately set off for South Korea, first playing the quarterfinals of the "LG Cup", followed by the quarterfinals of the "Samsung Cup".

"Hehe, Brother Ding'an, I'll see how far you can go."
