"Qian Da, although I vaguely guessed what Xiaoqiang meant, my thoughts were not clear enough. Now it's up to you to sort out the ideas in this. I see, in our national team, you should know the connotation of this kind of play best. Come here, come here, everybody come and learn. Come and listen to Qian Da's analysis of this kind of thinking......"

In Go, facing the same situation can often be dealt with in many different ways. Each of these approaches has its own merits, and it is not always possible to say that one approach is the best. As a top Go master, Nie Xuanfeng, of course he understands the truth. Therefore, when he saw Li Xiaoqiang using this obvious "blunt knife flow" style, he gave up his position as "speaker" to Qian Yuping.

"A professional chess player like us, unless we play those unreasonable spoons, any move we play, regardless of whether the move is good or not, must have his own ideas......"

When Qian Yuping said this, everyone's eyes turned to Team Leader Hua. Because everyone found that Qian Yuping's opening sentence is very similar to the mantra of Team Leader Hua when he was hanging and explaining.

“…… Let's take these moves made by Xiaoqiang. It's okay to say he's a "layman", and it's okay to say he's "empty". This is indeed a bad aspect of this approach. It is also the reason why we instinctively reject this kind of play. But then again, there's always something to be desired, right? We can start with the benefits of these moves, and then analyze Xiaoqiang's entire thinking. ”

Because he was facing his teammates, Qian Yuping did not make any detours. He spoke eloquently in front of the chessboard, and his words were full of confidence, confidence in his own Go philosophy! He went straight to the point.

Of course, there are also professional chess players around, and everyone understands the ordinary principles of Go, and at this time, everyone began to follow Qian Yuping's prompts. Let's think about deeper issues and understand the whole idea of Li Xiaoqiang's moves.

After all, a master is a master, and after having Qian Yuping's prompt, everyone quickly figured out the general meaning of Li Xiaoqiang.

Li Xiaoqiang played 3 moves in a row "old man cart", and the disadvantages of these moves are of course very obvious. Because whether it is a "vulgar move" or a "short" move, as long as it reaches the level of the amateur mid-stage, it is instinctively resisted by the chess player, and it is a play that the player subconsciously wants to avoid. Not to mention these professional chess players.

But then again, there are actually benefits to "vulgar hands". The biggest role of the "vulgar hand" is actually to "eliminate" many variations in Go. Especially when a professional chess player plays a layman, it is more to eliminate many changes that are not good for him. So in this game of chess, what changes does Li Xiaoqiang want to eliminate?

When everyone follows this line of thought to inspect the whole situation, these masters gradually see the taste. In today's game, especially this part of Li Xiaoqiang's "vulgar hand". Since there is an external momentum in front of the black chess, Li Xiaoqiang played 3 moves in a row here, and the number of black chess pieces has of course lost a lot, but it has also strengthened his external potential. He made his chess "thicker and thicker".

Li Xiaoqiang let his "external potential". It has become a real "thick power"!

It can be said that after having those 3 steps of the "old man's cart". Li Xiaoqiang's external momentum has really become a "monolith". Because of these 3 moves, this part has disappeared a lot of changes. Completely eliminates the possibility of white hitting black! This is the biggest effect of these few moves of black chess!

There have been many professional chess players who have lamented that the most difficult thing in Go is "judgment". For example, these moves like Li Xiaoqiang's. Now it seems to have found its advantages. The disadvantages also seem to be obvious. So now the most critical question comes, is it worth it for Li Xiaoqiang to do this?

At this time, Yu Bin on the side raised a question:

"I have a question, is it worth it for Xiaoqiang to do this? Because before these few steps "old man cart". Only in this part, it should still be considered "black is strong and white is weak", right? It is very possible for black to hit white, but what about white to attack black? I don't think there's a chance, right? White has at least less chance than black. Xiaoqiang first did these steps to "exchange losses". Is he just preventing the onslaught of white? Xiaoqiang is really willing, if it were me, I wouldn't be able to make a move, it would be too painful to do this. ”

"Yes, the most critical question here is actually the question of whether it is worth it. If you want to make such a choice, I think the most important thing is to judge the situation. Did you notice Xiaoqiang's 4th move? Isn't this the second move that everyone just recommended? The only difference is that he first strengthens his strength, and then goes to seize the super official. Why would he do it? This is, of course, because he judged that his situation was good! Only when he thinks that he is an advantage, will he want to eliminate hidden dangers, and he will use vulgar hands to curb other changes. I don't know what everyone thinks? At least my judgment is the same as Xiaoqiang's. That's why I thought of going with him just now. ”

"But, but his opponent is Mr. Kobayashi......"

Hearing Yu Bin's argument, Qian Yuping suddenly raised his head, and at that moment, his voice was very calm, in fact, it was also extremely resolute:

"I've always believed that the situation on the chessboard is objective. Good is good, bad is bad! Such an objective situation, it does not change with the opponent! It doesn't matter if he's a super-first-class chess player or an ordinary amateur chess player. The objective situation faced by Xiaoqiang is the same. I have learned that when you forget about your opponents, when you focus all your mind on the board, you tend to be able to make more accurate judgments in time. So as to make a more correct choice. ”

After listening to Qian Yuping's words, all the members of the national team were silent, and everyone was thinking about Qian Yuping's "experience". Yes, in a game of Go, if you can "adapt to the situation", of course, it is very good. At this moment, many teammates even remembered Li Xiaoqiang in the past, and he seemed to be the best at doing this kind of thing. But it must be admitted that this practice is only a kind of "small wisdom", and not a real "big wisdom".

The real great wisdom in Go is to "adapt to the conditions of the game", not "adapt to the conditions of the person"!

It doesn't matter who your opponent is, and it doesn't matter what his "chess style" is. You just make your own moves based on the situation on the board, rather than determining your tactics around the characteristics of your opponents. Play Go however you want! This will make it easier for you to find the best way to play the situation.

Such an approach. Is it a higher realm? Is Li Xiaoqiang now embarking on such a path? No one knows yet.

However, it is foreseeable that when Li Xiaoqiang really embarks on such a path, he can complete a new transformation!

"Well said, well said! I am dissatisfied with everyone saying that I have been suppressed by Qian Da in recent years, and my heart is actually a little unconvinced. But after hearing Qian Da's words just now, I am finally convinced now. Qian Da, I thank you now from the bottom of my heart, because you have solved my confusion for a long time......"

It was Ma Xiaofei who said this. It's the arrogant Ma Xiaofei. Although his attitude was very sincere, his thanks were also sincere. However, hearing him say this, the familiar teammates around him still couldn't turn around. Everyone is looking at each other:

"When, even the little demon with a heart higher than the sky, will he say soft words......"

Seeing this situation, it seems that the happiest are Chen Chaoyue and Team Leader Hua. Team Leader Hua said happily:

"I said Ma Xiao, don't patronize and review yourself. Let's not forget that we are now discussing Xiaoqiang's game of chess. Come on, come on, now let's ask Ma Xiaoyou to also talk about his opinion. ”

After listening to Qian Da's explanation. I now feel more and more that Xiaoqiang's choice is extraordinary. Just now we were all thinking about Xiaoqiang. So I'm going to do the other way around now, let's think about it from the perspective of white. You can also find that in fact, at this time, Mr. Kobayashi should also be very difficult. ”

"Oh? ……”

At a time when Chinese chess players are discussing it enthusiastically. In Tokyo, Japan, in the research room of the Japan Chess Academy. A group of Japanese chess players are discussing the same situation.

"Alas! Mr. Kobayashi must be having a hard time doing it now. I really didn't expect that kid to use Xiaolin's method to deal with Xiaolin. Let's take a look at this string of black moves. Isn't it very similar to Kobayashi's chess? When you see an opportunity, you will set the pattern of vulgar hands, gradually thicken yourself, and let the opponent lose the room to counterattack. And then step by step towards the end. Hey. I guess it was a surprise to Kobayashi, right? But there is one thing I still don't understand, is the child really so confident in himself? His courage was beyond imagination. ”

When Mr. Xiaolin took that very connotative "little tip", when everyone saw Li Xiaoqiang take those few steps. Out of trust in Mr. Kobayashi, the Japanese chess players, who did not have time to think about it, were actually optimistic. Therefore, they suddenly heard Fujisawa Hideyuki's old god stick chattering in that god. A lot of people look at each other in the same way, and they don't understand the situation either.

"Mr. Xiuyuki, do you think it is Mr. Kobayashi who is difficult to handle?"

"Don't care about the good players in front of you, or who is playing. Let's take a closer look at the objective situation. Is it good to be white or black at the moment? Then everyone will think of a way to deal with white, and everyone will know what I'm talking about. ”

After being splashed with a basin of cold water by Fujisawa Hideyuki. The Japanese players present began to do what the old god said. When everyone reached an agreement, the Japanese players fell silent. Everyone looked at each other again.

This time it's really looking at each other!

Because everyone found out: just after Li Xiaoqiang finished those few moves of "rook rear", it is really difficult for Mr. Xiaolin to play chess at present!

It must be noted that when the game is played at this point, it cannot be said that black has much advantage. At present, the most objective evaluation, whether it is from the contrast of reality and emptiness and the contrast of thickness and thinness. Now the most I can say is:

"Black maintains the efficiency of the first move".

But here's the problem. When everyone continues to study, when everyone continues to help Mr. Kobayashi find a way. Everyone suddenly discovered that Mr. Kobayashi's white chess was indeed "difficult".

Since Li Xiaoqiang chose to strengthen his external strength, in the middle belly generation, Mr. Xiaolin actually has nothing to play. Because no matter how much he tosses, he actually has no effect on the strength of black. If he continues to play in this place, he will only be able to break a little empty at best. It's impossible for him to play chess, and it's impossible for him to threaten the safety of black.

In this way, it is basically impossible for him to continue playing chess in the mid-belly generation. Because in this way, his "child effect" will be lower. In Go, whether it is a simple "breaking the air" or a simple "enclosing the air", in fact, the efficiency is not much higher.

For example, in this place. If white continues to make one move, it will break black by more than 10 at most. But you must know that one step in Go is worth 10 meshes, and even the "big official" can't be said, at most it can only be regarded as a "middle official". For example, like the last move that Li Xiaoqiang played just now, the value of that move is more than 20 mesh. That kind of chess can be regarded as a real "big official......

When everyone began to think about Mr. Kobayashi's white chess. Everyone will better understand the benefits of those few steps of "old man's cart". With those few moves, black seemed to have forcibly reversed the flow of the game. He made white have to move at his own pace, and he had to follow behind him to close the big game.

You must know that the big official in the first move just now was collected first by black. So do it. White followed and moved. Is it possible for him to overtake?

"Mr. Xiuyuki, we have read the subtlety of black chess. Then why do you say: Li Sang chose such a method, it takes great courage? ”

"Alas, after all, there are only more than 80 chess moves now, and you and Xiaolin are old rivals. You can put yourself in their shoes. When you play more than 80 chess moves, do you have the confidence to fight with Kobayashi? Are you confident that you will be able to maintain such a slight advantage to the finish line? In the middle of the game, you have to make a good move to do it! To be honest, if I had sat across from Kobayashi, I would have no confidence. I would definitely choose a different way to play. So I'll say. It actually takes a lot of courage for the child to choose this way. There's not much more to say now, so let's move on and see how it goes later in the game. ”

In the play room in Osaka. The confrontation between Li Xiaoqiang and Mr. Kobayashi continues. In the following period of time, Li Xiaoqiang tried his best and devoted himself to the competition on the chessboard. Because he knows that such a "big official" competes. In fact, it is still different from the competition between "middle officials" and "small officials".

In most cases, at the stage of "big officials". Again, the size of the mesh cannot be considered alone. While calculating the number of meshes, it is also necessary to pay attention to the overall thickness. Therefore, it is also very difficult to make such a judgment.

The chess game is still going on step by step, and the competition between the two sides has also entered a white heat. However, in the latter process, Li Xiaoqiang seems to continue to play at a high level.

At about 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the whole game was played 100 moves, and at this time, after the judgment of the players in the research rooms on both sides, everyone agreed that black continued to maintain its "first mover advantage".

At a little after 3:30 p.m., the whole game was played 120 moves, and after everyone's research, everyone thought that black's "first-mover advantage" had expanded, and black's board had 7 to 8 more meshes, while the thickness of the two sides was still about the same. In this way, it seems that black's advantage is already more obvious.

By 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the whole game had been played about 140 moves. At this time, Mr. Kobayashi began the long exam again. Because at this time, it seems that there are not many opportunities left for him.

What makes Chinese and Japanese chess players unbelievable is that Li Xiaoqiang's black chess has almost had the advantage of 10 goals on the board!

Could it be that Li Xiaoqiang has already won the game?

A little after 4 p.m. time. In the viewing room in Tokyo, Japan, Mr. Hideyuki Fujisawa began to pretend to pack his things. Then he was very graceful and said to the people around him:

"If nothing else, then I'll take my leave......"

I heard that Fujisawa Hideyuki, an old god stick, actually said such a thing. The expressions of the Japanese players present began to darken. Because everyone knows what Fujisawa Hideyuki means, his sentence seems to be a common word used by many Japanese chess players to "pretend to be forced".

The general meaning of this sentence is: in my opinion, the outcome of this game has been decided, and there is nothing left to study. Because I already know the outcome of this game, it is not interesting to stay here any longer, it is a waste of my time. So, I'm leaving......

It seems that it started with Hideyuki Fujisawa, and he likes to say things like this the most. This has also led to many Japanese super chess players following the same example, such as Hero Otake and Masaki Takemiya, who like to say similar things. Therefore, in the Go world, words similar to this kind of pretense seem to have become synonymous with "the victory is decided".

As the saying goes: what is going to be struck by lightning. Especially in the world of Go, even an old god like Fujisawa Hideyuki can't avoid it.

Mr. Xiuyuki's words had just finished when the latest chess game reached the research room. When you see the latest move that Mr. Kobayashi has just played. The whole research room began to stir. Because at this time, Mr. Kobayashi has just released a very strong winning hand!

He took a very strong step of "digging in the air"!

When Fujisawa Hideyuki saw this move, he had to stop his steps, and he had to pretend to put down the things he had just "packed". Because with Mr. Kobayashi's move, the whole game seems to have re-emerged waves, and the situation has become chaotic again. At least at this time, his old gentleman no longer dared to pat his chest and say that "the victory or defeat has been decided". So he had to sit down again.

What's really going on on the chessboard?

In the game room in Osaka, Li Xiaoqiang quietly watched this move. He began to slow down his fall. Because he knows that from now on, it should be the final winner of this game. But the amazing thing is that when Li Xiaoqiang saw this move, he was not surprised, let alone nervous. He even felt that victory was already beckoning to him.

That's right, that's what Li Xiaoqiang thinks!

At around 4:30 p.m., the game continued step by step.

The semi-finals of Li Xiaoqiang VS Kobayashi Koji will soon be decided. (To be continued......)
