342 Eagle Cup Go Tournament
As soon as Zheng Mingrui learned that Ye Xiaoya's body was recovering well and she could participate in the competition, he immediately registered for her.
In this Eagle Cup Go competition, more than 20 young chess players signed up in their cutting-edge Go classroom, but none of these chess players had the strength to win the ranking.
But Ye Xiaoya is different, her chess strength is already comparable to Teacher Bai, in Zheng Mingrui's opinion, she is the favorite to win the championship this time.
"Xiaoya won the Eagle Cup championship this time, and our cutting-edge Go classroom became famous." Zheng Mingrui happily discussed with Zhang Zhijun.
In the past month or so, Zhang Zhijun has become half of the teacher in the cutting-edge Go classroom because of his ears and eyes.
And as one of Ye Xiaoya's closest people, Zheng Mingrui naturally spared no effort to win him over.
Although from the actual situation, neither Zheng Mingrui nor Bai Changle taught Ye Xiaoya anything, they did their best to help Ye Xiaoya grow.
They can be regarded as at least a Bole, and Ye Xiaoya's next growth is indispensable for their participation and help.
From this point of view, Zhang Zhijun is also very grateful to the cutting-edge Go classroom, and is willing to let Ye Xiaoya participate in this competition and win honor for this Go classroom.
"Then in this competition, are there any difficult chess players to deal with?" Zhang Zhijun asked.
"There should be no, there is a limit to participation in the Eagle Cup Children's Go Tournament, that is, for primary school students under the age of twelve, there are not a few amateur 5 dan under the age of twelve in Fengcheng, and the level is very good, and it will not be Xiaoya's opponent at all." Zheng Mingrui said with a smile.
From Bai Changle's mouth, he had already learned Ye Xiaoya's true chess strength, which was quite terrifying.
At least there should be a quasi-industry 6 level, speaking of which, she has been in contact with chess for less than three months, and at this growth rate, she may be able to participate in this year's professional fixed-stage tournament.
"Lao Zheng, you don't know, if there is no opponent, Xiao Ya probably won't be satisfied with this competition." Zhang Zhijun said with a smile.
"So that's the case, in fact, we really have a little chess player in Fengcheng who is not weaker than Xiao Ya, but I don't know if he will participate in this Eagle Cup." Zheng Mingrui thought for a while and said: "His name is Ge Tiancheng, he seems to be almost twelve years old, he went to participate in the professional stage competition last year and entered the top 100, the level is quite good, if his level is improved a little more, Xiaoya may have to work hard to win him." ”
"That's it, that's perfect, Xiaoya will definitely win the championship." Zhang Zhijun said confidently.
In fact, after Zhang Zhijun and Ye Xiaoya talked about this competition, Ye Xiaoya was very excited, she didn't know much about this kind of competition, but she really wanted to participate.
She has been staying at home for half a year, and only recently has she occasionally gone out for a walk, as a girl in her youth, this is a huge torture.
Because Bai Changle often has trouble, Zhang Zhijun and Zheng Mingrui are unwilling to play against Ye Xiaoya, and this poor girl has no opponent to play chess.
She had already read more than half of the thick eleven books that Bai Changle gave her, and as her understanding of chess theory became deeper and deeper, the speed of reading books became faster.
Now Ye Xiaoya's knowledge of Go is richer than that of any in-service Go teacher, and the most terrifying thing is that every chess game she has seen and the changes in her thinking are remembered in her mind.
Now, in addition to her actual combat experience, she is still slightly inferior, and even if she is a professional chess player in other aspects, she must bow to the advantage.
Undoubtedly, this Eagle Cup competition is a very good opportunity to exercise.
On Saturday, April 24, the Fengcheng Eagle Cup Children's Go Competition kicked off.
This time, a total of more than 300 young chess players signed up to participate, and the competition was divided into three parts: the rank group, the low group and the high group.
Not to mention the rank group, they are all young chess players who have just learned chess, and the lower group is amateur 1st dan and amateur 2nd dan, these two groups are mainly expensive to participate in this time, and also account for four-fifths of the players participating in this competition.
The upper dan group is made up of players with more than 3 dan players, and they come here to compete for the ranking and win the Eagle Cup prize.
There is no prize for the lower level of the Rank Combination, but it can be ranked according to the number of boards won.
In addition to being promoted to the amateur division according to the number of sets, the top six can also receive a scholarship award from the sponsor of the Eagle Cup.
Although it is a children's competition, the prize money this time is indeed a lot, and the reward of 1,000 yuan for the first place is worth a month's salary of ordinary people.
The second place is 500 yuan, the third place is 300 yuan, the fourth place is 200 yuan, the fifth and sixth places are all 100 yuan awards, and the 100 yuan at the end of the 20th century is also quite durable, and this kind of bonus is also extremely attractive to the parents of students.
The whole tournament was held on Saturday and Sunday, a total of two days, and the lower group of the ranking combination played four games a day, a total of eight games. There are 46 people in the senior group, three games a day, and a total of six games of chess.
Ye Xiaoya reported for the high-level group, although she had never participated in the rank competition and did not have any rank, but this kind of competition did not restrict low-level high-level reports to find abuse.
In fact, some high-level players who think that they are not good enough will voluntarily go to the lower-level group to get a place when they do not intend to be promoted.
It is precisely because of this consideration that the organizers do not have any bonuses for the rank group and the lower group, only honorary certificates and some small prizes.
At 8 o'clock in the morning on Saturday, Ye Xiaoya followed Zhang Zhijun to the competition venue.
The competition field is in Fengcheng No. 4 Primary School, where the contestants and coaches enter the school building with their cards, while parents and relatives and friends wait in the small playground of the campus.
"Uncle Zhang, the environment of this fourth elementary school is better than my previous school." Ye Xiaoya looked at the temporary new teaching building and said.
"Really? Do you want to transfer to this school? Zhang Zhijun nodded, of course he knew Ye Xiaoya's school before, and he had also picked up Ye Xiaoya many times to go home.
Since that accident, Zhang Zhijun has been angry when he thinks of the elementary school, two of the three teachers were not present, and although the accident was the responsibility of the truck driver, if it were not for the dereliction of duty of the school teachers, such a tragedy would not have happened.
"I don't really want to go to school anymore, I want to concentrate on playing Go." Ye Xiaoya said with a wink.
"This ...... Okay, but you can't lose your learning. Zhang Zhijun naturally knew Ye Xiaoya's talent, her path may be a professional chess player, so it is normal to not go to elementary school, but he is also worried that Ye Xiaoya doesn't even want to learn the basics of primary school.
"Uncle Zhang, don't worry, I just don't want to study in school, I will learn the knowledge in the textbooks by myself." Ye Xiaoya said very seriously.
"I'm relieved of this, hehe." Zhang Zhijun said with a smile.
At this time, the referee began to announce the entry of the players, and the computer-arranged bracket was also posted.
"Xiaoya, you're about to enter, are you ready?" Zheng Mingrui walked over and said hello.
"Teacher Zheng, I'm ready." Ye Xiaoya said with a smile.
"Play well, we're here waiting for your good news." Zheng Mingrui looked at Ye Xiaoya with a smile, this super Go genius is finally about to start to shine.
