The time came to 5:20 p.m., half an hour after Li Xiangping's own game ended.

Today is a bit of a surprise, except for his game of chess, the other 3 games of chess have not ended yet, and the game is in a countdown battle. Especially in the game in which the two Chinese chess players participated, whether it was Chang Hao VS Song Taikun or Kong Erjie VS Yitian Jiji, it turned out to be a fine chess situation at this time.

It is the kind of very subtle chess situation where the outcome is unpredictable and has just entered the key point of victory and defeat.

Everyone in the research room began to miss Li Xiangping.

Indeed, watching such a game, if there is a big master of Li Xiangping's level sitting next to you, then you can save a lot of worry, at least you don't have to point over and over again, and you are worried that your way of pointing is completely wrong, and people don't follow their own pictures in actual combat.

And the reason why the description of "missing" is used here is because according to the normal situation, Li Xiangping should have appeared in the research room a long time ago, but this guy is good, his chess has been played for more than half an hour, and Cui Poison has been away for more than 20 minutes, and this guy is still in the game room.

Reporter Zhang Da made a suggestion to Team Leader Hua: "Team Leader Hua, why don't we go over and have a look?" ”

Team Leader Hua nodded slightly, and then the two of them got up and walked towards the next game hall.

Today's 4-set match was held in a room, so as soon as they arrived at the door, the two saw Li Xiangping at a glance.

Due to the angle, the two saw Li Xiangping's sideways and saw that this guy was still playing chess there-------

He was there alone, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, as if he was talking to himself.

Team Leader Hua suddenly felt a little dazed.

Because of the scene in front of him, Team Leader Hua is really familiar.

He remembered that 4 years ago, yes, it was the first time Li Xiangping participated in the "Samsung Cup", because he broke into the main match through the qualifiers, especially when he had just reached the quarterfinals, when the Chinese team was left with only one seedling, he went to the Chinese Chess Academy to train for a period of time, and the Hua team leader occasionally saw him like this now.

It's just that at that time, Team Leader Hua didn't care.

Just like the entire Chinese chess world at that time, they didn't really care about Li Xiangping.

Of course, you can't blame everyone for being blind, after all, other people don't know that this guy is hanging, so as long as it is a normal person, who will pin the hope of Chinese Go on a teenager who has failed 3 consecutive fixed sections.

At that time, it was agreed that he would come to the Chinese Chess Academy for training, which was really not that the management expected him to win gold and silver, but in fact, it was more of an encouragement, or some kind of reward.

So in that situation at that time, Team Leader Hua didn't notice Li Xiangping's slightly strange behavior, which is of course human nature.

And now, when he saw this familiar scene again, he happened to have a little bit of a trance, which was of course just as understandable.

After all, Team Leader Hua is old, so the mood of the old man, of course, is not difficult to understand, he looks at a young chess player like Li Xiangping, and he looks at his own children no differently.

And my own children, everyone understands, stay under their noses every day, and they usually don't feel much, but once the old man falls into some kind of memory, it is really easy to be in a trance.

For example, the current Hua team leader, although he doesn't know what Li Xiangping is saying there, he can't help but think of the changes that have taken place in Chinese Go in recent years.

The changes that Li Xiangping has brought to Chinese Go! Even the changes he brought to the entire world chess scene.

Reporter Zhang Da was about to go inside, but was dragged by Team Leader Hua.

Reporter Zhang Da didn't know why, because this was the game room, he couldn't make too much noise, so he glanced back at Team Leader Hua.

In fact, to be honest, Team Leader Hua didn't know why he dragged Reporter Zhang Da back, there was no reason, and there seemed to be a reason: as if he didn't want Reporter Zhang Da to destroy a good memory of himself.

"Alas, unconsciously, Xiangping is also so big, I remember when he first came to the chess academy, he was not as tall as me, but Xiao Zhang, you see, he is now half a head taller than you."

Reporter Zhang Da was inexplicable, he didn't understand at all how Team Leader Hua could express such feelings at this time.

Isn't this a normal thing, Li Xiangping was only 13 years old when he first came, a standard child, but everyone is almost 18 now, not to mention that the nutrition of children now is so good, and Li Xiangping is different from other chess players, he seems to love sports.

Isn't this chess academy very close to the General Training Bureau, I can often see this guy haunting those professional venues, playing ball and swimming is still a trivial matter, and sometimes I will go to the gymnastics hall or weightlifting hall to play iron or something------

There are the most professional and best trainers and rehabilitation therapists in China, much stronger than the gym outside, so he has grown up all the way and is half a head taller than me....... Is this also worth your emotion here?

Of course, even if Reporter Zhang Da was inexplicable, but since he was dragged by Team Leader Hua, it was impossible for him to continue to break forward, so the two continued to stand at the door, watching Li Xiangping chanting there.

Li Xiangping was unaware of all this, and he was still discussing the chess game with his plug-in:

“....... Xiangping Xiaoyou, this hand is actually the same as the previous step, your method is completely beyond my expectations, I imagined it at the time...... This is expected to happen....... I just want to ask Xiangping Xiaoyou, did you think about my idea at that time? ”

"Hehe, don't hide it from Brother An, I did think about it at the time, but it's not as deep as you."

Lao Shi sighed: "Alas, what's the use of deep? To borrow the word you often say, no contrast is no harm, although my play is also feasible, but compared with your actual combat play, it seems too mediocre, your move tsk, including the previous few steps we couldn't think of a piece of play, Xiangping Xiaoyou, do you know what I thought of at the time? ”

"What, what?"

"I thought of my brother Xiping, and Mr. Yuetian, the so-called first like a hasty, inadvertent, and a landing, rubble, insects and sand turned into wind and clouds, thunder and lightning, and the overall situation won a big victory, Xiangping Xiaoyou, such a smart method, ingenious and clever, ethereal changes, from death to life, do you still think it is like me?"

Li Xiangping stopped squeaking, and he didn't blame the plug-in for slapping his ass again, because Lao Shi was right in what he said just now: only after comparison can you see it more clearly.

Before playing this game of chess, Li Xiangping did formulate a basic strategy, he just wanted to fight hard with his opponent, and wanted to break his wrist with his opponent in the simplest and rude way.

However, it is one thing to develop a strategy, and quite another to play chess in a game-------

To tell the truth, in fact, during the game, Li Xiangping really didn't think about any agility, what elegant, and he didn't think about anything like "rubble, insects, sand, clouds, thunder and lightning", he was thinking about how to be simple and rude, and he really thought that he would win the opponent simply and rudely.

However, when Shi Da Qisheng said his thoughts, especially the follow-up changes of several important points of disagreement, then after comparison, Li Xiangping found that he was amazed:

Lao Shi's play is really simple and rough, like an armored car rampage on the chessboard, and his own play seems to be really more agile than him, with a few moves and a little "elegant" taste.

"Hehe, I understand now, it turns out that this is a serial set, I understand, I understand, no wonder you can always restrain that Da Li, but I can't, even if I study the dog tricks for so long, I will still lose the chess battle."

Lao Shi was inexplicable when he heard it, and he mistakenly thought that Li Xiangping was still haunted by last year's defeat:

"This ...... Xiangping Xiaoyou, it's a pity to lose last year, but you don't have to ....... either."

"Haha Ding'an, you are misunderstood, I have already let go of that defeat, but I just remembered a serial set, a chess style and a serial set."

"Chess style is a serial set?"

"Of course," Li Xiangping said with a smile: "We only discussed part of it yesterday, and we didn't finish it completely, as far as the control flow of Da Li is concerned, let's call it "thick and balanced chess style", this style is afraid of straight line attack, let's call it "straight line power type", this should not be wrong, because a large number of facts have proved that "thick and balanced type" is really afraid of "straight line power type", but Brother Ding'an, only these two styles are not complete, if you add another style, then the whole chain set will be perfect. ”

"Add a touch? What style? ”

"It's similar to your Xiping brother's style, let's call it "smart and elegant". ”

Li Xiangping said proudly: "I thought that as long as this style was added, the whole chain set would be perfect, "straight line power type" gram "thick and balanced type", "thick and balanced type" gram "smart and elegant", and "smart and elegant" gram "straight line power type", Brother Ding'an, isn't that so? ”

Lao Shi thought about it for a while: "Hehe, it seems that there is indeed a certain truth." ”

"Haha, Brother Ding'an......" Li Xiangping smiled more and more happily:

"How can this only make sense, I think it makes so much sense......"

Li Xiangping is indeed very happy, very happy for his discovery.

Needless to say, the "heavy and balanced" gram is "smart and elegant", look at how Da Li beat Ma Xiaofei and his master Lao Cao back then.

As for the "smart and elegant" gram "straight line power type", there are also many examples of this in human Go:

At that time, Liu Xiaoguang's nine-dan was a typical "straight-line power" chess style, but he couldn't play chess when he encountered the "horse demon knife".

A more typical example may be Wu Qingyuan VS Fujisawa Tomosai, Fujisawa Tomosai is the first nine-dan in Japan to be played through an official competition, and it is the first nine-dan born under the modern Go system, so there is no doubt about his strength.

However, when he met Mr. Wu Qingyuan, nicknamed "Dump Machine", he also seemed to be unable to play chess, and was directly demoted by Mr. Wu by two levels, and directly reduced to "Dingxian", and even if he won once in "Dingxian", he only won 6-4, and according to the rules of Shiban chess that year, this score could not let him be upgraded, and he did not even rise back to "first phase first", and he still maintained this humiliating "Dingxian" chess until he died.

Obviously, according to his true strength, especially referring to the situation of other players who have played ten games with Mr. Wu, it seems that he should not be so miserable.

The reason why he was demoted two levels in a row should be a very important reason.

Of course, Li Xiangping is so happy now, he really doesn't just think this discovery is fun.

Again: it's all about dog fighting!

As a chess player, Li Xiangping actually believes in the very vulgar saying "real water has no fragrance", and he insists that if Go reaches the highest level, it should erase any style, there is no so-called chess style, there is no so-called characteristics, and all moves should be as plain as boiled water.

However, have the dogs of later generations reached this state? The answer is clear: of course not!

Needless to say, take the chess style as an example, all the dogs in later generations (the dogs that Li Xiangping has seen) will more or less show some "chess style characteristics".

From one generation of dogs to three generations of dogs, as well as other foreign dogs and native dogs developed by other countries, without exception, they can still capture their "chess style characteristics".

It's just that such "chess style characteristics" are not obvious when playing against humans------ after all, there are too many differences in level, and humans can't see the dog's "show style".

However, when it comes to the dog and the dog fighting by themselves, it is needless to say, I believe that there are amateur chess players at the beginning level, and they should be able to feel the dog's "chess style".

It is precisely because dogs still have a "chess style" that Li Xiangping feels that humans still have a chance.

And such an opportunity-------

If it doesn't reach that high level, then it's all about it.

But if you really come to that point, for example, you and Lao Shi really understand the "dog tricks" through hard work, and you have reached the stage of exploring the weaknesses of the dog.

Then the phenomenon of "chess style restraint" like this should have some effect.

It can't be said that this is necessarily a breakthrough.

But at least it's a cut-to-the-point!

And the above is the reason why Li Xiangping is so happy today.

Although he knows very well in his heart that with the current level of himself and Lao Shi, the "chess style" shown by the dog is still in the stage of "seeing but not reaching".

However, he doesn't think it has much to do with it, isn't it 11 years before the dog is born? I still have a lot of time to understand this question.

So Li Xiangping is not in a hurry at all now.

Not in a hurry, he said to his plug-in:

"Okay, Brother Ding'an, let's stop here now....... Ouch, it's half past five, so let's go and watch the other games......."

By the time Li Xiangping came to the viewing room next door, the time had come to 5:35 p.m., and by this time, the second game of chess had ended, Zhang Xu defeated Da Li, and the second broke into the semifinals.

After learning this result, Li Xiangping couldn't help but glance at Zhang Xu not far away, he said in his heart No, does this guy really want to say that some book friends say, he is the protagonist of this book?

Now there is a battle between the two Chinese chess players.

It took 10 minutes to judge the situation, and Li Xiangping reported the good news to the team leader Hua and told him that the Chinese team might have to "fight Lu Bu in three English" this time.

Team Leader Hua couldn't keep his mouth shut at that time.

Hurry up at 6 o'clock in the evening, Li Xiangping couldn't close his mouth------ because his prediction this time was not slapped in the face.

It is precisely because of the happy mood that Li Xiangping smiled and patted the shoulder of the big reporter:

"Reporter Zhang, I want to ask you a question."

"Huh?! You say you say. ”

"That's it...... What kind of chess style do you think I am? ”

"Huh?!"

Seeing that reporter Zhang Da was stammering, he couldn't answer at all, and Li Xiangping smiled more and more happily:

"Haha, you don't know, I know you won't be able to answer......."

After leaving this sentence, Li Xiangping ignored him, but ran to participate in the next round of the lottery, leaving Zhang Da reporter to think about life alone.

Zhang Da reporter said in his heart What happened today? In front, Team Leader Hua was inexplicable, and now it was Li Xiangping's turn to ask such a question inexplicably.

“....... But Li Xiangping's chess style, what kind of chess style is he......."

His thinking life lasted for a while, and it lasted until Li Xiangping and Kong Erjie shook hands.

Li Xiangping's opponent in the semifinals is Kong Erjie.
