Chapter 153: 5 plus 1 Gathering
In between the games, Li Xiaoqiang was thinking about his "weaknesses" while preparing for the next game.
On the Japanese side, of course, they also have to prepare for the next game, and of course, they also have to find Li Xiaoqiang's weaknesses. To that end, a party is underway.
The specs of this party are high, very high. It's a pity that Li Xiaoqiang didn't know the way at this time, if he knew the way, he would definitely go to "ask for a group photo".
The initiator of the party was Masao Kato Kudan. He is the head coach of the Japanese side of the ring tournament and the actual first person in Japanese Go this year. Four of Japan's seven titles are in his hands. Although the Japanese "chess saint" is Kobayashi Koji, the current Kobayashi only has such a title, and this title was taken from Zhao Zhixun, who had a car accident. It's not always right to be called first.
Although everyone collectively calls Japan's "Six Supers", in fact, they are very different in age. The oldest Otake hero is about 15 years older than the youngest Zhao Zhixun. When Zhao Zhixun ran from South Korea to Japan to learn chess at the age of 6, the Japanese chess world was still the world of Dazhu and Lin Haifeng, and the two were collectively called "Bamboo Forest".
At Zhao Zhixun's apprenticeship ceremony, he and Lin Haifeng also played a "commemorative game". Lin Haifeng let 5 sons, and Zhao Zhixun won the game of chess.
The six supers can be simply divided into 3 generations, "Bamboo Forest" is one generation, Kato and Takemiya are counted as one generation. The youngest Kobayashi and Zhao Zhixun are counted as a generation. It is still light to say that the "six supers" have ruled the Japanese chess scene for 15 years. In fact, it should be counted from Lin Haifeng's defeat of Sakata in 65, plus Yoshio Ishida, who has been in the limelight for a few years, plus Fujisawa Hideyuki has won 6 chess saints. From 65 to 95, these eight people ruled the Japanese chess scene for 30 years.
Kato is a responsible person in the Japanese Six Super League, and the reform of the Japanese Chess Academy should be regarded as promoting it in his hands. It's a pity that he died young just after pushing.
Now Kato is also very responsible. Now that he is the head coach of Japan, he wants to take on this responsibility. The top priority now is, of course, to try to prevent Li Xiaoqiang from going crazy. The format of the ring competition is like this, and it is really difficult for a person to stop if he initiates a surge. With ordinary strength analysis, there is no way to predict victory or defeat.
The situation of Nie Whirlwind is like this, 85 years ago, Nie Whirlwind encountered Liuchao. Although it can't be said that a win is hard to find, it is also at an absolute disadvantage. Who knew that he would be able to basically win the six super in the ring? Later Seo Bong-su was the same, that one was even crazier, and there was no way to explain it.
Of course, the most unexplained thing now is Li Xiaoqiang. There's no way to explain it, even if it's awkward. After all, he was still a child, so he really wanted to rush in front of Liuchao...... This is the face of Japanese Go.
Masao Kato decided to take some measures, and he put his hope of stopping Li Xiaoqiang on Kobayashi Satoru. Satoru Kobayashi is now on the rise and has won five consecutive victories in the second ring tournament. The strength is strong, and there is one more. He is also a fellow disciple. It's always easier to talk to your own people.
It's going to be a game tomorrow and there's really nothing to do. It's just to find a few masters to take the pulse, tell Kobayashi Jue's "precautions", and let Kobayashi Jue pay attention, this kind of work can still be done.
Kato's first thought was Takemiya, the same lineup in the ring, the same junior brother, Kobayashi Jue's chess style is generally thick and balanced, and it is a little similar to Takemiya. But Kato soon decided no. It's not reliable to find Wu Gong, that's a big child, and he thinks of playing every day. may not say a word, he will take Kobayashi Jue to run to which karaoke.
Kato thought about it, and he really didn't know who to look for. Now there seem to be only a few people who are qualified to help Li Xiaoqiang take the pulse. Looking for Sakata? It's not good, he's so old, I'm embarrassed to bother him. Looking for Hideyuki Fujisawa? Firm little strong powder. Lin Haifeng? Don't think about it.
After thinking about it, I can only find my own fellow disciples. Looking for a big brother Otake hero? I just took two blows last year and this year, and now I am keeping a low profile. Then there are only two junior brothers left. Looking for Kobayashi Koji? He is now a "chess master", and it is difficult for me, a "celebrity", to summon him. Besides, Kobayashi Koji is not easy to talk to. It's a young old-fashioned one. Then only Zhao Zhixun is left, to say that this little junior brother is quite enthusiastic, but he is Korean after all.
Thinking about it, Kato has a sad face there, and I really don't know who to look for. Suddenly, his heart moved, and he thought of a person, if he let this person come forward, maybe he could bring everyone together.
This person is the daughter of Mr. Minoru Kitani, Reiko Kobayashi, the wife of Kobayashi Koji.
She is 13 years older than Kobayashi Koji and two years older than Otake. is everyone's master sister, and she took care of everyone when they were learning chess. If she speaks, then she will have to give her face.
Kato said he would do it, and he called Mrs. Reiko and said what he meant. Mrs. Reiko is also knowledgeable, and this is a major event related to the face of Japanese Go. Of course, it is incumbent.
In this way, under the mediation of the master sister, the six supers actually gathered 5 people, plus a Kobayashi Jue who later became a chess saint. The elites under the Mugu are gathered, and they gather together to discuss how to "defeat Li Xiaoqiang".
This is going to make Li Xiaoqiang know, of course he will be proud, of course he will "ask for a group photo". Later generations don't seem to have a picture of the "six supers" gathering to be handed down, right?
Time is tight and the task is heavy, and after everyone gathers, Kato doesn't have so much nonsense:
"Everyone is a brother in the same class, so there is no need to say more kind words. Everyone gathered together today just to let everyone analyze and analyze, how can Kobayashi Jue defeat that mysterious Chinese boy with more confidence? ”
After Kato's words were finished, no one spoke. How to interface? Playing chess is playing chess, it is all based on itself, how can you rely on everyone to increase your grasp by casually speaking?
Otake opened his mouth, but he didn't make a sound. Yes, now it's not about how to evaluate that child, it's about the way, the way. Now, of course, it can be said that Li Xiaoqiang is not good, that is not good, but is it useful? At least I've tried my own way, and it doesn't seem to work.
Seeing that no one spoke, Kato had no choice but to order. He ordered Zhao Zhixun, who he thought was the most reliable:
"Jihoon, I noticed that you are also interested in the ring match. You seem to have studied the last game of chess carefully, let's talk about it first, how should Senior Brother Kobayashi deal with him? ”
"If you want me to say, it's best to let Senior Brother Kobayashi go home and sleep now, and take care of your spirits. Senior Brother Xiaolin's strength is already stronger than him, so what's there to be nervous about......"
"Hahaha!"
Masaki Takemiya laughed heartlessly, in his opinion, there was no need for Kato to make such a big formation. It's more important to maintain your state and mindset than to figure out what to do.
But except for Takemiya, no one else laughed. Kobayashi Jue is the party concerned, and he is the youngest, so of course he doesn't dare to laugh. Otake thinks the same thing as Kato, thinking that it is necessary to find a way to do it.
The corners of Kobayashi's mouth twitched, and he didn't laugh when he wanted to laugh. Because he suddenly thought that Zhao Zhixun was called "Senior Brother Xiaolin" just now, his heart felt awkward for a while.
Kobayashi Koji is a few years older than Zhao Zhixun, but he started later than Zhao Zhixun. When he was in his teens, Zhao Zhixun was a 6 or 7-year-old child. I don't understand anything, and I run around with a toy gun behind me every day. But I really couldn't play chess at that time. Speaking of which, he seems to be also a "junior brother of Kobayashi".
"Zhixun, get down to business."
The hero of Otake put on the majesty of the elder brother:
"That's right, Zhixun, you've also seen the game of chess, you can tell me about your understanding of that kid first."
Speaking of Go, Zhao Zhixun became serious:
"I've studied Kudo's game of chess, and I've studied it seriously. Because I'm also curious how a 12-year-old can be so high. After all, they won this game of chess, and I can't comment on the specific moves. I can only talk about my feelings, I think his understanding of Go is completely different from mine. ”
"Can you be specific?"
"Let's put it this way, he seems to be playing most of his chess normally. However, there are many points of disagreement, and I have studied them carefully, and if I play that game as well, my choices will be different from him at least 6 or 7 times out of 10. This shows that his thinking is completely different from mine. Is his train of thought good? After all, they won the chess, so I can't evaluate it. ”
"Is his train of thought similar to that of Takemiya?"
Dazhu opened his mouth to ask, which was completely different from Zhao Zhixun, so it was similar to Wu Gong's thinking. This was a normal thought at the time. However, Dazhu soon found that his words were a bit stupid, because Li Xiaoqiang's chess and "cosmic flow" were not close at all.
"No, no, no, his chess is different from Takemiya. Although Wu Gong is known as the cosmic stream, he is also very rich when he wants to be wealthy. Benefiting from it, he immediately happily moved to the field. That kid's chess is different, and I have a very strange feeling that his chess doesn't seem to care about the number of goals at all, and always wants to attack and attack. It seems that he has been looking for the weaknesses of the opponent's chess type, even when it comes to the official stage, and he thinks a little more about the means than about the number of goals. ”
The others looked at each other and said in unison:
"It seems like I've been doing life and death questions!"
Zhao Zhixun walked in front of Kobayashi Jue:
"Come on tomorrow, that's all I know. Let me reiterate again, your overall strength is still stronger than his. What I'm saying doesn't necessarily help you. Sticking to your own Go is the most important thing. ”
Zhao Zhixun walked away. The others were no longer interested in talking.
When everyone left, they patted Kobayashi Satoru on the shoulder.
The 6th game of the 3rd Ring Tournament.
Li Xiaoqiang VS Kobayashi Jue
