After the news of Li Xiaoqiang's championship was transmitted back to China, the domestic media was jubilant.

"I'm going to make Cao Yanzi's blood splash in five steps! Li Xiaoqiang fulfilled his promise......"

"A classic hand back! Li Xiaoqiang played a once-in-a-century trick. The Breeze Spear is completely disoriented in front of the chessboard wizard......"

"Li Xiaoqiang, who has no last resort, and Li Xiaoqiang, who is trustworthy, ......"

"The new king of the world chess world! Li Xiaoqiang's pace has been stopped by no one......"

Well, in short, this praise is a bit numb, and everyone throws all kinds of praise on Li Xiaoqiang's head without any discipline. You know, most of these media are involved in the pre-game war of words. Now that the results are out, seeing my Korean counterpart being slapped in the face, all kinds of pride and all kinds of sourness. Therefore, at this time, their choice of words and sentences is understandable.

Since the game ended early, there was plenty of time to cover the final. The news of Li Xiaoqiang's championship not only appeared in the sports news of major media, but even showed his face in the "news broadcast" of the imperial court station.

You know, this is an unusual event. It's not the ring tournament now, it's the "news broadcast" at the Go tournament I don't know how many years ago. For example, when Nie Whirlwind won the 2nd "Ying's Cup" last year, that news was not on the "news broadcast".

The significance of Li Xiaoqiang's victory lies in the fact that this is the first "triple crown" in the world chess world!

At present, the three Go powers, China, Japan and South Korea, are fiercely competing with each other. It can be said that the entire world chess world is in a melee. No one obeys anyone, and no one can suppress anyone. Then in this case, the birth of the first "Triple Crown" has its symbolic meaning. Although this does not mean that Chinese Go has completely overwhelmed Japanese and South Korean Go, it at least represents that Chinese Go is one step ahead temporarily. As Zhang Da reporter described, the mountain captured by Li Xiaoqiang has given Chinese Go a boost of confidence and put Chinese Go in a favorable position in the future competition.

It should be this reason that made Li Xiaoqiang brush his face in front of the people of the whole country.

Of course. All this was only learned by Li Xiaoqiang later. After the end of the "Fujitsu Cup", Li Xiaoqiang did not return to China immediately. Day 2 after the end of the race.

"Boss, congratulations! Haha, "Safety first, safety first", if Lao Cao knew that he was losing to you, I don't know how he would feel. Boss, you're so funny, when we watched the TV news yesterday, the piggy almost laughed. ”

"Isn't that funny? When playing chess, you need to do this, "I don't think about winning." Think about defeat first". It's not that you boss and I can't lose, but we must not be attacked by others. That's why I said Xiaochang, you can't have the heart to hurt people, and you can't have the heart to prevent people, understand? ”

"Go, are there still fewer people who have been harmed by you......"

It is Chang Rensheng, and it is Chang Rensheng who is talking to Li Xiaoqiang. The reason why Li Xiaoqiang stayed in Japan was to wait for Chang Rensheng to come to Japan to participate in the Sino-Japanese Go Tournament.

After the first round of the competition, the two female pioneers of China and Japan have been out. Then now it's Chang Rensheng's turn to appear. Considering that Coach Luo and Li Xiaoqiang are both in Japan, there is no other delegation from China. Li Xiaoqiang is also the Chinese vice coach of this ring competition. Let Li Xiaoqiang stay in Japan, which also means to press the formation for Chang Rensheng.

"Where's Yutou? Why didn't Yu Tou come over this time? ”

"Yu Tou has one more game today, if I lose tomorrow. Then he'll be here tomorrow night. ”

"Hehe, it's better not to let him book a plane ticket, so as to save a little money for the chess academy."

Speaking of which, Chang Rensheng, who participated in a major international competition for the first time, is also pitiful enough. was sent on the road by the chess academy like this. However, Chang Rensheng is not without an escort. After seeing Chang Rensheng's entourage. Li Xiaoqiang had a strange feeling.

Accompanied Chang Rensheng to Japan. It turned out to be Zhang Xuan, the future Mrs. Chang.

"Isn't it? Could it be that this kid is going to do it now......" Li Xiaoqiang muttered to himself.

After settling everything down, Chang Rensheng, who was participating in an international competition for the first time, seemed a little restless. He even kept looking through a few of his opponent's games.

Chang Rensheng's opponent tomorrow is called Mimura Zhibo. It's a subordinate of Fujisawa Hideyuki. He is Japan's "rookie king" this year, and he was selected for the Japanese ring squad with this result. said that he was talking about the "rookie king", he was 5 or 6 years older than Li Xiaoqiang. It's surprising how late a Japanese chess player matures.

"Xiao Chang, don't be nervous, before the competition, it is very important to adjust your condition. Everyone believes in your strength, and you have to believe in your own strength. Hehe, it just so happens that Xiaoqiang is here, I hope you can also be like Xiaoqiang back then, and make a hit in the ring. ”

Seeing Chang Rensheng nervous like this, Coach Luo on the side smiled and did his ideological work. Chang Rensheng smiled embarrassedly. Li Xiaoqiang looked at Chang Rensheng in front of him, and felt a burst of emotion in his heart.

On the path of professional Go, it is really important to be able to seize opportunities. Chang Rensheng is 18 years old this year, but he is still walking the path he walked when he was 13 years old. The so-called slow step, slow step. The current gap between Chang Rensheng and himself is mainly because he has seized more opportunities. Thinking of this, Li Xiaoqiang snatched the chess game in Chang Rensheng's hand.

"Boss, what are you doing......"

"Let's go, come with me for a stroll outside. What's so good about this broken chess game. You have to trust me, you ...... tomorrow You can definitely win, you can even win all the time, and I still count on you to rush to the account of the big bamboo hero. ”

"Okay, borrow your good words, borrow your good words......"

Others thought that Li Xiaoqiang was just saying "auspicious words". Only Li Xiaoqiang himself knows that if the inertia of history is big enough, then this ring competition is the starting point for Chang Rensheng to really emerge. Since this tournament, Chang Rensheng has rapidly grown into a world-class chess player.

Seeing Chang Rensheng in front of him, he thought of Naoki Hane and Keigo Yamashita and others he saw yesterday. Li Xiaoqiang was a little emotional, and he was also a little unaccustomed. His peers and juniors are growing rapidly, and in the near future, the days when he regarded his predecessors as his main opponents are likely to be gone forever.

Thinking of this, Li Xiaoqiang naturally thought of Li Shifo, the Li Shifo who hadn't fought for a long time.

"Li Shifo, I don't know how you would feel after watching my chess game to win Cao Yanzi......

On the second day, the match between Toneto and Tomoho Mimura began. For a whole day, Li Xiaoqiang has also been performing his "pressure formation" work as a "deputy marshal".

Of course, the so-called "pressure array" is just a swing change in the research room. The "Triple Crown" appeared in the laboratory, and his opinions were listened to carefully, even if they were superb. What's more, there are not many well-known chess players in the research room for a second-level competition such as the ring match. Therefore, in the respectful eyes of many young Japanese chess players, Li Xiaoqiang is very addicted to being a master.

Because it was his debut, Chang Rensheng did not play well in this game. Luckily, his opponent seemed to be more nervous than he was. In this way, Chang Rensheng won without danger.

Seeing Chang Rensheng walk out of the game room, I saw the expression on his face as if he had abandoned his burden. Li Xiaoqiang was secretly happy for him.

In a format like the Ring, the first game is crucial. If you take this first step, you will be more and more relaxed in the future. Li Xiaoqiang believes that Chang Rensheng can seize his own opportunities.

I'm going to be in Japan for a few days. Li Xiaoqiang's next days were a bit leisurely. In addition to attending several events: he made a commentary on the self-war in the Japanese magazine "Kido". Visit the "Haifeng Research Association" presided over by Mr. Lin Haifeng. Li Xiaoqiang didn't do anything else.

Of course, leisurely is leisurely, but Li Xiaoqiang will not be lonely, because Yukari Umezawa, a "full-time translator", is quite conscientious.

On the day between the ring matches, Yukari Umezawa found Li Xiaoqiang again.

"Li Sang, my master wants to see you."

"Ahh Mr. Kato...... Mr. Kato wants to see me something. ”

"He said he wanted to talk to you."

"This ......"

"What are you doing, let's go."

I don't know why, Li Xiaoqiang inexplicably has a panic of "seeing parents". However, after seeing Mr. Kato, Li Xiaoqiang soon stopped panicking, and was instead surprised.

"What? Mr. Kato is ready to restart the "Kitani Dojo"? ”

"Yes, I have already discussed with Senior Brother Otake and others, and for the sake of the future of Japanese Go, we are ready to concentrate all our efforts and strengthen the training of young Japanese chess players."

Masao Kato looked at Li Xiaoqiang's eyes, and he said with certainty:

"We are ready to resume the training model of the "Muya Dojo". (To be continued......)
