After Li Xiaoqiang, who had a ghost in his heart, returned to school, he did not have much sense of existence. Although he hadn't taken a single class this semester, his seat was still reserved for him. Although he was still sitting behind Lin Mengyu, the "future beauty" didn't look at him a few more times at all. On the day Li Xiaoqiang just returned to school, Lin Mengyu politely greeted Li Xiaoqiang, and after that, the two didn't even have a chance to talk.

Of course, of course, you Li Xiaoqiang don't have to think about the entrance exam. People have to think about it. There is less than half a month to go to the "high school entrance examination", who has time to take care of you now. Li Xiaoqiang wants to find some "common language" to talk to others. However, it is clear that Li Xiaoqiang did not succeed.

In this special period, only the entrance exams that will be held soon are the only topics that everyone is concerned about. In this era, the "high school entrance examination" is also very stressful for a junior high school student. Naturally, what everyone talks about is mainly focused on academic issues.

What made Li Xiaoqiang depressed was that he was basically "ignored" by the classmates around him. It's Zhao Dabao, a kid, at least he looks much more beautiful than himself.

"Dabao, borrow your notes and show me ......"

"Zhao Dabao, help me see how to solve this problem......

Sometimes Li Xiaoqiang really can't stand it, and he is ready to be a good student who is "helpful". In most cases, though, it attracts a skeptical gaze. In everyone's opinion, you Li Xiaoqiang haven't "studied hard" for nearly a year. Do you know the questions of the third year of junior high school? I guess I don't understand. That's right, you used to be a good student, so you only have the level of the second year of junior high school. Now you're pretending to be a sophomore and want to "help" me, a junior high school graduate......

"Dabao, you can help me take a look again, the answer given by Xiaoqiang is not reliable......"

Every time he encounters such a thing, Li Xiaoqiang can't be depressed. Li Xiaoqiang sadly realized that he didn't seem to have any sense of existence in the class at all. After this understanding, Li Xiaoqiang was in a bad mood.

"How did I become a soy sauce maker in the class......

The marginalized Li Xiaoqiang certainly did not dare to destroy the strong learning atmosphere in the class. I don't dare to use any "test hand" at this time. With this basic understanding. Li Xiaoqiang had no choice but to continue to slowly look for opportunities.

"Well, this should be the same as Go. For example, the "test hand" in Go is generally not very subtle in terms of means. The power of "test hands" is often reflected in the timing of use. Just because I can't do it right now doesn't mean I don't have the means, but that the timing is wrong. That's right, yes, it must be like that. How can a person as good as me have no romantic genes at all, this makes no sense at all. Now they are still young. Wait, wait, wait......"

Although Li Xiaoqiang once again found a good reason for himself, he was still listless in the following days.

Time passed quickly, and after Li Xiaoqiang coped with the entrance exam, he refocused his mind on Go. Since he didn't know when the ring match would be played, Li Xiaoqiang didn't play much chess in the next few months. For the entire month of July, there was only one official professional game. That is the last qualifying match of the "Top 10 Battles" of Chinese Go. Li Xiaoqiang finished 4th in the group stage and will battle Yu Bin in the other group for the final 7th and 8th place rankings.

To be honest, in addition to being the champion and runner-up. In this kind of competition for 7 or 8 places, Li Xiaoqiang certainly won't take such a ranking very seriously. It is estimated that the opponent is in a similar mood, and will only see such a match as a more formal training game.

What Li Xiaoqiang really values is the "Professional Top Ten VS Amateur Top Ten" competition after the top ten battle. At the same time as the "Top 10 Battle" is being played at the same time. The grand event of China's amateur Go, the first "Evening Cup" is also about to begin. China's first batch of amateur 6-dan chess players is also about to be born in this competition.

Due to their "origin" relationship. Li Xiaoqiang has a natural affinity for amateur chess players. In his previous life, as a veteran who had been in the online game of Go for more than 10 years, Li Xiaoqiang also met a large number of friends on the Go website. This is especially true after becoming a "middle 9". I have had a lot of competitions with amateur players from all over the country. In Li Xiaoqiang's view, amateur 6 dan or more is more like an "honorary title" for amateur chess players. Amateur 5 or less with 5 occupations, it is equivalent to a "technical title". Li Xiaoqiang only dared to say that he was karma 5, and never dared to say that he was karma 6. Even if he and many karma 6 also have mutual wins and losses, he doesn't dare to say that he is karma 6. The reason for this is very simple, in order to become an amateur 6th dan in China, you must have won a ranking in a national competition. To become an amateur 7th dan in China, you must have won the championship in a national amateur competition. Everyone's level may be about the same, but winning a championship is not the same as "winning a place". "Ranked" and "Never ranked" are not the same.

Due to Li Xiaoqiang's "birth", there are a lot more people around him who play Go. Not to mention the primary and secondary schools in Cuiwei County. The students who have learned Go are much more than in their previous lives. What makes Li Xiaoqiang the strangest is Zhao Dabao. This person who didn't know how to play Go at all in his previous life actually played Go in his life. Not only can I play Go, but it seems that my level is also improving rapidly.

Shortly after the beginning of the summer vacation, under the organization of Lu Fanyun and others, Cuiwei County held a "Celebrity Contest for Primary and Secondary School Students". The championship was actually won by Zhao Dabao. Li Xiaoqiang paid attention to it and found that the current Zhao Dabao already had a level of more than 3 in the strong industry. This discovery surprised Li Xiaoqiang. Because this means that if you compare the level of this period in your previous life with Zhao Dabao, this guy can at least let himself be the first.

Although he knew that there was not much comparison between Lu Dao, it still made Li Xiaoqiang a little uncomfortable. Let Zhao Dabao pressure himself on "intelligence", whether it is in his previous life or in this life, Li Xiaoqiang cannot tolerate it. It was because of Li Xiaoqiang's cautious eye that Li Xiaoqiang didn't go to praise his iron buddy at all. It almost made him miss a great opportunity.

A great opportunity to "test your hand"!

After the end of the "Celebrity Contest for Primary and Secondary School Students" in Cuiwei County. Zhao Dabao successfully became a "middle school student celebrity", this guy is of course arrogant. However, Lu Fanyun always felt that something was missing. Of course, as a Go activity, the most famous and influential local masters are not involved. If you don't make good use of this "resource", of course, as an organizer, you will feel a little regretful.

According to the most normal practice, since Li Xiaoqiang is at home. Always let him play a few games of coaching chess or something, so that the whole activity seems to be perfect. Of course Li Xiaoqiang didn't care, he had already wanted to teach Zhao Dabao a lesson.

The problem still appears in Zhao Dabao, and I don't know what this guy thinks, the "chess share" of the two chess games is always incompatible. Even Lu Fanyun was doing work on the sidelines to no avail.

"Uncle Lu, you have to think clearly, I am now a "celebrity" in our county, and Xiaopang has only entered the finals of the celebrity battle now, and he has not won the championship yet. No, let me get down with 2 children. Let 4 I strongly disagree. That's too shameless for me, I want to have 4 of them, and I'll talk about it when he wins the championship. ”

Li Xiaoqiang looked at Zhao Dabao dumbfounded, what he was fighting for was whether the "celebrity" of Chinese Go was good. He is a county-level "celebrity" and a juvenile group. I don't know what logic he used to deduce that he would be "faceless". Zhao Dabao refused to put 4 pieces, and Lu Fanyun certainly couldn't let him put only 2 pieces. He is a veteran chess fan, and he knows that Li Xiaoqiang is about to let the top ten amateurs in the country put 2 in front of him.

After all, the prefectural competition is also a public event, and the education system was originally going to publicize it within a certain range. For example, the last Ganyuan TV station or something. If Zhao Dabao only puts 2 pieces. In case someone who doesn't know the truth knows. I really thought that Cuiwei County had another national-level amateur Go master. That's a bit like "exaggerated wind", Lu Fanyun won't let such a thing happen.

The champion refused to accept "guidance", and it obviously made no sense to let Li Xiaoqiang "coach" the runner-up. Director Lu thought about it, but he could only do Zhao Dabao's ideological work with hard work. Since everyone is usually close. Zhao Dabao was not afraid of him at all. No matter what Lu Fanyun said, all kinds of "coercion and temptation" methods were used, and this kid just refused to let go. He even said with a hippie smile:

"Uncle Lu, just spare me this time. Anyway, I don't have a relationship with Chubby. Hehe, you said that the runner-up is not good, then let Chubby coach the women's champion. Anyway, I'm not going to play as the men's champion......"

"Oh? Are there any different categories in your competition? What school is the Girls Champion from? ”

Li Xiaoqiang has not paid attention to this game, so he gossiped at this time.

"Hey, the women's champion is Liao Qiong from our class. You may not know the way now, but most of our class can play Go, but unfortunately we have graduated now......"

There are many classmates in his class who can play Go, and Li Xiaoqiang still knows this. However, some time ago, everyone was busy with the entrance exam, so the specific situation is not very clear. Speaking of his class, Zhao Dabao seemed very excited:

"Alas, it's a pity that there is no class-based team competition, otherwise our class would definitely be the champion. Not only the champions of the men's and women's divisions are in our class. Lin Mengyu also won the 6th place in the women's group......"

"Oh, what the hell is going on, let's hear about it."

Hearing the situation of the "future beauty", Li Xiaoqiang suddenly came to his senses. Lin Mengyu also knows a little bit of Go, which Li Xiaoqiang still knows. One year ago, Lin Mengyu probably knew what "rats steal oil" was. According to this Tesuji, she should have had an amateur level of about 5 at that time. What the specific situation is, or Zhao Dabao knows better.

Zhao Dabao really said a few treasures, briefly talked about the Go level of many students in the class, and after introducing the male classmates, he then introduced the female classmates:

“…… Hey, don't look at Liao Qiong is also a champion, her level is far behind, and she can be in the top 5 at most in the class. If she and I go down, we must honestly put the two first. Lin Mengyu's level is a little worse than her, I don't know if Liao Qiong can let her two ......"

"You kid is getting better and better at bragging, can you let the two of you move classmate Liao? Who lost the last set with two subs? ”

Lu Fanyun happened to have a fire in his belly, and when he saw Zhao Dabao's radiant appearance, he couldn't help but open his mouth to expose his shortcomings. Zhao Dabao's rare face turned red, and he still argued with his neck twisted:

"Uncle Lu, what you don't understand, it's 2 to 1, understand? It was 2 to 1, and it was a coincidence that day, and you saw the game I lost......"

Li Xiaoqiang listened to them on the side, and made a quick judgment in his heart. If Zhao Dabao's words are credible, then Liao Qiong should have the strength above the amateur early stage. And Lin Mengyu should be at the level of amateur level 5 to amateur level 3. At this time, Li Xiaoqiang's heart moved, and he suddenly thought of a good idea:

"I said Xiao Hei, let's do it, I won't let your son anymore, I'll give you a chance to level down. Let's organize a mixed doubles competition, you and Liao Qiong are in a group, and I am in a group with Lin Mengyu, what do you think. ”

Without waiting for Zhao Dabao to react, Li Xiaoqiang said to Lu Fanyun, who really spoke effectively:

"Uncle Lu, what do you think?"

After Lu Fanyun listened to Li Xiaoqiang's words, he was stunned at first, and then his eyes lit up:

"Good! Hahaha, Xiaoqiang, you have a good idea, which is exactly in line with the purpose of our competition: popularization! Get more people involved in Go activities. That's what we're all about. Hahaha, good! It's a good idea, and this contest must be very distinctive......"

Li Xiaoqiang is also hehe, he is straight. The heart said that my idea is certainly very distinctive. Master Wu Qingyuan once said that if you want to popularize Go, it is best to teach more women to learn Go. Teaching a woman to learn Go may be the equivalent of teaching a family to learn Go. Am I responding to Master Wu's call?

The more Lu Fanyun thought about it, the more he felt that this idea was good, don't look at the huge difference in the level of Go of these 4 people, if you really want to follow this combination, it is difficult to say whether you will win or lose. If it is really analyzed objectively, Li Xiaoqiang's group is a little more likely to lose. This is where the "barrel theory" comes into play. For the "mixed doubles competition", if they are all professional chess players, the level may be high, and the main thing is to look at the cooperation. If the disparity is so great, it may be the person with the worst level who decides the winner.

"Hahaha, without further ado, Xiaoqiang, you see when this competition is good, I want to say hello to my friends in the publicity department and let them promote it well."

"Uncle Lu, don't worry, it also depends on whether my two female classmates agree with it? Besides, since it is a cooperation, then we must be familiar with it first, so as not to make the quality of the game too poor. Maybe it makes the game a little bit more interesting, don't you say? ”

"Yes, yes, yes. Xiaoqiang is right, I'll go to Zhang Luo. If there are no surprises, I think this event will be held in a week. ”

After saying this, Lu Fanyun hurriedly ran to "Zhang Luo". Li Xiaoqiang was proud in his heart, and said in his heart that my method may be relatively ordinary, but my ability to grasp the opportunity is first-class. Well, this has always been my forte. To carry forward, to carry forward......

"Hehe, the next question is cooperation."

Li Xiaoqiang showed a smile that Zhao Dabao couldn't understand. (To be continued......)
