"Li Xiaoqiang rarely doesn't play a game!" Zhenlu Cup "Three Kingdoms Go Tournament Chinese Defending Failed ......"

"The dense schedule leads to poor state, and the reasons for Li Xiaoqiang's crisp defeat in the Three Kingdoms Ring Tournament are ......"

"Li Xiaoqiang VS Li Shifo 10th battle, Li Xiaoqiang lost in physical strength......"

The competition of the Three Kingdoms Ring Tournament in Shencheng entered the third day, and Li Xiaoqiang had nothing to do after losing the game. This morning, the bored Li Xiaoqiang looked through the reports about yesterday's game. After roughly reading the relevant comments, Li Xiaoqiang felt that the vast majority of domestic media seemed to have a good attitude towards him. It is not that there are no "small strong blacks" in China, but the number is extremely small.

For example, for yesterday's game, although everyone expressed disappointment with the final result, there was not much criticism. After reading many comments, everyone has found many reasons for Li Xiaoqiang's defeat - although in Li Xiaoqiang's own opinion, the reasons analyzed in the media are basically not reliable. But Li Xiaoqiang still felt the kindness. Because most of the reports, how to look at it, seem to excuse themselves.

It's normal to think about this situation, the reason why Li Xiaoqiang is so popular now is that his foreign war results have always been excellent. Li Xiaoqiang thinks this is very important, and he even imagined that if Ma Xiaofei had lost yesterday, it is estimated that the media would not have been so polite.

The second reason may be that the overall results of Chinese Go are good, and everyone can look at the temporary victory and defeat with a relatively peaceful attitude. Li Xiaoqiang thinks this is also important. You know, most things in this world are like this, the more capable you are, the stronger your strength, the easier it is for you to have a tolerant mentality. The opposite? The easier it is for you to be vitriol. For example, in the real history, the "dark decade" of Chinese Go, the domestic media's snarky attitude towards Chinese Go is really not too much.

The third reason. Of course, because after all, it is not the Internet era, and all kinds of professional trolls or "professional black" have not yet found a suitable soil for vigorous development.

"Xiaoqiang...... Boss ......"

"Yo, it's the two of you, I said you two, I've been here for days and you don't know how to come to see me......"

Li Xiaoqiang got up to greet the visitors. Two people who came in. He is a teammate of Li Xiaoqiang's junior team, two famous kings in the domestic amateur chess world, Liu Da and Liu Er, who are known as "Shencheng Erliu".

In last year's national team adjustment, these two were unfortunately adjusted out of the national team. Originally, according to Liu Da's current level, he had the strength to continue to stay in the national team. It was only during the physical examination that he was found to have congenital heart disease, and it was said to be quite serious, so serious that he might not be able to adapt to the intense professional competition. In this case, the management released him to the local team.

Liu Er's situation is a little more complicated. On the one hand, his level of Go over the years has indeed progressed slowly, and he is compared to Chang Rensheng and others. Liu Er's age is also on the older side, and he is at a disadvantage in terms of development potential. In the second aspect, it may also be due to Liu Er's Shencheng chess players, in the current national team, there are still more Shencheng chess players, the older generation has Chen Chaoyue, Cao Dafang, Qian Yuping, Yang Hui and others, and the younger generation also has Shao Weigang, Chang Rensheng and others. In addition, in the new national junior team, there seem to be many young chess players from Shencheng. So maybe it's a balancing act. Liu Ercai reluctantly left the national team.

This is the first time we have seen each other since they left the national team. In the "Erliu". Li Xiaoqiang has always had a better relationship with Liu Er, who has called Li Xiaoqiang "boss" since he was a child. As for Liu Da, it can't be said that the relationship is not good, it's just that Liu Da is usually silent, which is a bit similar to Li Xiaoqiang. The two stuffy gourds bumped together, and there was not much communication between the two when they were in the national team. So they came over this time. It is mainly based on Liu Er and Li Xiaoqiang chatting. Liu Da listened silently most of the time.

"How? You're all right now......"

The conversation starts with a simple greeting like this. However, Li Xiaoqiang knew in his heart that the current situation of the two of them should not be much better. After the two of them left the national team, they nominally returned to the Shencheng team. However, the Shencheng team is full of talents, and the so-called Shencheng team members are basically national team players. This also means that the two of them actually have no place in the Shencheng team.

"What else. We're all thinking about turning professional to amateur right now. Boss, we came here this time, in fact, I want to ask your opinion......"

After being a friend for so many years, Liu Er didn't go around in circles when he spoke, he directly said his intention. After the two of them returned to the local team, in addition to the psychological gap, they actually faced the dilemma of having no game to play. It can be said that they are not having a good time now. Just after they left the national team last year, the only competition they participated in was last year's "Evening Cup". This is a special case, because Shencheng was the host of last year's "Wanbao Cup", and they formed two teams to participate in the competition, and as a care for the host, they allowed the two professional four-dan players to participate in the amateur competition.

But this year, it certainly won't. In order to regulate amateur competitions, this year the Chinese Weiqi Association has a hard and fast rule, and only amateur chess players can participate in amateur competitions.

Of course, as with many other things in the country, the so-called "hard and fast rules" are actually subject to flexibility. For example, the Chess Association also has a provision that allows professional chess players below the fourth dan (including four dan ) to apply for giving up their status as professional chess players by making their own reports, so as to become amateur chess players, and then participate in amateur competitions.

What Liu Er just said about "turning professional to amateur" actually refers to this matter.

Of course, Li Xiaoqiang also understands the entanglement between the two of them, this is like a person who has studied hard for ten years, he finally got a diploma, and now he suddenly says that he wants to give up for other practical problems, then everyone will have emotions that must be difficult to give up. What's more, this is also a major life choice for them. So it's normal for them to be cautious and ask for more opinions.

"Okay, I'm very supportive of your professional to amateur ......"

Now seeing that Liu Er asked for his opinion, Li Xiaoqiang's answer did not drag the slightest bit of mud, and he made his attitude very clear. Because for a reborn person like Li Xiaoqiang, this problem does not need to be considered at all. In real history, "Er Liu" only reflected their value after they turned into the amateur chess world. One became the leading figure of Chinese amateur chess players, while the other became a famous "gold medal coach" in later generations. Therefore, in Li Xiaoqiang's view. For the two of them, instead of becoming some "backbone chess players" in the professional chess world, it is better to play a new world in the amateur chess world.

Liu Er carefully observed Li Xiaoqiang's expression to see if Li Xiaoqiang was casually perfunctory. To say that after so many years, the teammates of the national youth team are very convinced of Li Xiaoqiang. This is not only reflected in Go, "what the boss says is always right" has been ingrained in Liu Er's hearts. Now I see Li Xiaoqiang's sincere attitude. And when they came, they had already made some kind of decision in their minds. Now seeing Li Xiaoqiang's expression of support, it just makes them more determined.

"That's good, that's good, since the boss supports it, I don't think there's anything to hesitate......"

It seems that after making a major decision, Liu Da and Liu Er suddenly became relaxed. Everyone recalled the bits and pieces of living together in the past, especially exposing each other's troubles when they were young, and laughter rang out in the room from time to time.

"Liu Er. I remember that you guys have been sharp since you were a child. What do you think? Ever thought about teaching a child to play chess? ”

"Boss, how do you know ......" Liu Er's eyes showed a sense of surprise, to say that he does have such an idea now, after turning into an amateur chess player, his livelihood has become a very real problem. Fortunately, the economic environment and Go environment in Shencheng are second to none in China, and if you want to be a Go teacher or Go coach, you are not afraid of not having a chance. It's just that the two of them are just preparing for the "transformation", and at this time they don't have a lot of confidence in their hearts.

Liu Da and Liu Er glanced at each other: "...... We have this idea......"

"Need my help?" Li Xiaoqiang didn't wait for "Er Liu" to finish speaking, and said directly: "They are all brothers for many years, and I can't help with other things." But to help you stand on the platform or something, I think I can still do it. ”

"Er Liu" was overjoyed when he heard it. Liu Er even said inch by inch: "Boss, don't say anything about the platform and the platform." We even want to play your signboard directly, do you think that's okay? ”

Li Xiaoqiang laughed when he heard it, of course he knew what Liu Er meant. For example, opening a "Erliu Go Study" in Shencheng, or opening a "Li Xiaoqiang Go Study", so which one is more attractive? Which is easier to enroll? The answer, of course, is obvious. Li Xiaoqiang just doesn't know now, Liu Erda's idea was premeditated? The idea has just come to me.

"It's not impossible to play my signboard. But you can't smash my sign. If you can come up with a detailed charter, I don't think it's impossible to think about it. By the way, one more thing to make clear to you, even if you do play my sign, I don't have much time to get involved in specific matters. ”

After listening to Li Xiaoqiang's words, Liu Da and Liu Er were even more pleasantly surprised. Because I listened to the meaning of Li Xiaoqiang's last sentence...... Does it mean that this thing is really funny? In the end, Liu Er was a little more clever:

"Of course, of course, boss, your main task now is to win glory for the country, how can you do those mundane things. To be honest, we really didn't dare to play your signboard before we came, but now that the boss agrees, then we really have to sum it up again and try to make a good charter......"

Li Xiaoqiang was an amateur chess player before he was reborn, and he has a natural affinity for amateur chess players. If he really wants to open any "Li Xiaoqiang Go Classroom", he is really willing to cooperate with Liu Er, the gold medal coach of later generations. Therefore, although there is no one in the eight characters yet. The three of them still had a lively discussion on the matter.

The three of them chatted happily and happily until it was almost noon time. Li Xiaoqiang got up:

"Let's go, I'll invite you to dinner at noon......"

The doorbell rang in the room again, and it was reporter Zhang Da who walked in, Yukari Umezawa and Xu Ying.

Reporter Zhang Da was happy when he saw it:

"Yo, it's so lively......" (To be continued.) )

PS: I only noticed when I uploaded it.,It's 500 chapters today.。 It is said that for writers, 500 chapters is a hurdle. After writing 500 chapters, you should be an old bird. So when I see this number, I don't know how I feel in my heart, because it took me 2 years to write these 500 chapters. It's a bit of a shame. But I looked at it again, and my 500 chapters are more than 1.7 million words, with an average of about 3,500 words per chapter, and this data is not to be ashamed.

Since I've said so much today, let's move on to a little more about this book. Before I started the book, I thought I would have written between 2 million and 2.5 million words. However, judging from the current progress, I feel that 2.5 million words cannot be beaten, and as for whether it will exceed 3 million words, I can't say now. But one thing I want to say is that I hope the book will be finished in 2016.

At my level as a handicap, I expect it will be a difficult task to accomplish, so I hope you will support it. Vote more, subscribe more, tip more. By the way, the most important thing is that I hope you don't subscribe to this book with bonuses. Thank you!
