Go is a complex and fun board game. Why do anyone like to play chess? This is because the whole process of playing chess is actually a process of "construction" and "destruction". The so-called game is nothing more than trying to realize one's own idea while hoping to destroy the opponent's intentions. Li Xiaoqiang believes that this should be a common feature of all board games, and at the same time, it is also the real fun of playing chess.

Sometimes, you don't have to do both "building" and "destroying", and sometimes you just need to achieve one goal, and it's probably a lot of fun. For example, last year's Three Kingdoms Ring Tournament Li Xiaoqiang won against Cao Yanzi, which is a typical example.

In that game of chess, Li Xiaoqiang actually only did one thing, all his ideas, all his moves, were actually to prepare for the detonation of the "world calamity". In the end, when Li Xiaoqiang really succeeded in "building", what was the outcome?

The ending is, of course, that the famous game was born, Li Xiaoqiang was happy, and the people who supported Li Xiaoqiang were also happy, while his opponent Cao Yanzi was depressed......

It must be pointed out that of all the ways to win Go, this is probably the coolest way to win. But from the perspective of the loser, this is not necessarily the most depressing way to lose.

Li Xiaoqiang knows that there is another way to lose in Go, which is even more depressing than this way of losing.

No! Not only is it more depressed, but it can even be said that after losing a game of chess in this way, the loser will definitely be inexplicable, and he will definitely not understand why, and even in his heart, there will be a deep fear......

And today, in the top 8 of the 3rd "Ying's Cup", Mr. Cao Yanzi, a generation of top masters, Mr. Cao Yanzi, the "Emperor of Go" in South Korea, seems to be about to suffer such a defeat.

At 5 o'clock in the afternoon, when the game went on for about 6 hours. At this time, Li Xiaoqiang and Cao Yanzi played a total of about 170 chess moves. Due to the previous two interruptions. The players in the laboratory also did not have time to conduct a detailed technical analysis of the game. The process is not studied, but it is still easy to judge the situation. After an accurate judgment of the situation, Liu Dazhui's face was full of incredulity:

"This ...... What's going on? Xiaoqiang's black chessboard is 10 meshes ahead, and it seems that it is more than that. And...... And it seems that there is no room for tossing in white chess yet. So Xiaoqiang has won this game of chess today? He...... How did he do it......"

In today's world, "Pan 10 Heavenly Trench" is not only the patent of Li Shifo alone, Li Xiaoqiang shares this honor with him. Although the "Ying's Cup" is a big sticker, since "the plate is more than 10 meshes". Then no one thought that Cao Yanzi could turn the tables in the hands of Li Xiaoqiang.

Of course, the topic that everyone is interested in today is not that Li Xiaoqiang defeated Cao Yanzi again, but how Li Xiaoqiang won. For example, Liu Dazhui.

In the previous period, although Liu Dazhui did not accurately analyze the situation of this game of chess, based on his intuition, he always thought that Li Xiaoqiang's situation was not very good.

Don't underestimate the instincts of professional chess players, although the instincts of professional chess players are sometimes wrong. For example, Liu Dazhui's intuition today. But there is no doubt that the intuition of any professional chess player must have his basis.

For example, in today's Liu Dazhui's view, he did not see Li Xiaoqiang play any good chess. On the contrary, it seems that Cao Yanzi is quite good. Although it can't be said that Lao Cao is a good hand today, and his wonderful hand fell out, but at least Cao Yanzi showed several wonderful tesuji in front of him, and in this regard. Li Xiaoqiang is dwarfed.

Liu Da Hammer saw that Cao Yanzi had a few brilliant ideas today, and this game of chess. Liu Dazhui didn't even see Li Xiaoqiang's idea at all. Not only did he not see any wonderful ideas from Li Xiaoqiang, but what Liu Dazhui saw was: Cao Yanzi's several ideas even easily achieved their goals......

This can't be blamed for why Liu Dazhui has the illusion. Indeed, in today's game of chess, I have neither seen any "construction" nor "destruction" of you, Li Xiaoqiang. Look at your opponents. I saw his "construction" and his "destruction" again. So why are you able to get ahead of such a chess game? How can you get ahead?

What's even more unbearable is that your lead is not even a little bit, and your current lead has reached the point where your opponent is desperate......

How did Li Xiaoqiang do it? This is the answer that Liu Dazhui wants to know most at present.

It's a pity, though. When everyone re-examines this game in detail, it seems that they still can't come to a definitive conclusion. Even with the clear purpose of "where did Li Xiaoqiang play well", everyone still couldn't find Li Xiaoqiang's obvious winning move, and still couldn't see Cao Yanzi's obvious losing move.

In other words, even at this time, everyone still doesn't know where Li Xiaoqiang won.

"Old Nie, do you see something?"

When Liu Dazhui threw this question to Nie Whirlwind, Nie Whirlwind also said that he didn't see it. Although Nie Whirlwind also admitted that he didn't see it, it didn't prevent him from being in a happy mood at the moment. After listening to Liu Dazhui's words, Nie Whirlwind happily threw the question to Mr. Lin Haifeng on the side.

"I don't see this chess, what about Mr. Lin? What did Mr. Lin see? ”

At this time, the game between Lin Haifeng and Li Shifo has ended, and Mr. Lin, who has broken into the top 4, is watching the game of Li Xiaoqiang VS Cao Yanzi with many Chinese chess players. After listening to Nie Whirlwind's words, Lin Haifeng did not answer immediately, and Mr. Lin at this moment even showed a look of remembrance:

"Mr. Nie can't see it, so naturally I can't see anything like me. It's just that seeing Xiaoqiang's performance today, it reminds me of my husband's back then. Let's talk about it, Xiaoqiang's performance in today's game of chess, does it have the demeanor of Mr. Shiban in the past? ”

The "sir" in Mr. Lin Haifeng's mouth, of course, can only be Mr. Wu Qingyuan. Mr. Lin Haifeng's words reminded everyone of Mr. Wu Qingyuan's eventful years when he played ten chess.

In 20 years, 10 times of "fighting ten chess", this is undoubtedly the most glorious moment of Mr. Wu's career. It was also those 10 times that made Mr. Wu famous as the "Showa Chess Saint".

In fact, scenes like today's have appeared many times in Mr. Wu's games. One of the most impressive scenes was a battle between Mr. Wu Qingyuan and Mr. Minoru Mutani, and Minoru Mutani's seemingly very subtle super means attracted the amazement of the chess players who watched the battle. Especially when everyone sees that this super trick seems to have worked. All the Japanese are already ready to cheer. But at this time, the Japanese chess academy student who was in charge of notation stood up, and he said weakly:

"Don't you all see it? By the time this part is finished, Mr. Wu's real space is already much ahead......"

Again, in Mr. Kure's game, no matter whether his opponents were Mr. Minoru Kitani, Mr. Tomosai Fujisawa or Mr. Eio Sakata. There are many, many such examples. It can be said that it is for this reason that Mr. Wu Qingyuan was able to demote all the masters of the year.

Just today, in today's increasingly fierce competition in the world chess world, in the game between Li Xiaoqiang and Cao Yanzi, this classic scene seems to reappear in front of everyone. Therefore, in addition to sighing, the rest is only shock, so shocked that they forgot when this game of chess ended, and shocked so much that they forgot to explore the reason.

Of course, some people forget to find out why. But there are also some people who will definitely not forget. For example...... Reporter Zhang Da.

After the game, reporter Zhang Da kept chasing after Li Xiaoqiang's buttocks:

"Xiaoqiang, you confess honestly, you must confess honestly today! Tell me, how did you do it today? ”

After winning the chess, Li Xiaoqiang seemed to be in a good mood, and he joked with reporter Zhang Da:

"I said Zhang Da reporter, the strategy I adopted in this game of chess...... I think it's easy to understand. I thought that with your ingenuity, it would be easy to see through my intentions. I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it. You're really ...... I was so disappointed. ”

After listening to Li Xiaoqiang's words, reporter Zhang Da secretly complained in his heart, your strategy is easy to understand? Why are so many people still unable to understand? Is your intention easy to see through? If it's really so easy to see through, how can everyone still be so shocked?

"Are you going to say it or not?"

Li Xiaoqiang smiled and said to reporter Zhang Da: "Okay, I know you don't believe what I say. So let's do it, I'll give you two tips first. When you figure everything out, you'll know what I'm saying and you'll know my strategy today...... It's actually really simple. ”

"Tell me about it."

"The first point, the process of playing chess that you just said is actually a process of "construction" and "destruction". It should be said that your statement is quite reasonable. But don't forget, there is a way to play Go, where it is difficult to see both the "construction" and the "destruction", but this type of play can often be won. If you know what this play is? Then I understand most of my strategy today. The second point is that I have to play against Lao Cao many times this year, and today is the first game of chess, so in order to make sure that the start is good, of course I have to adopt the most secure strategy. So what's the safest way to do it? You can think about it, in today's world chess world, who is the most sure of Lao Cao? Whoever is most sure of Lao Cao, of course, I have to learn from whom's method. If you know the answer, then my intentions today ...... Isn't it easy to see through? ”

Reporter Zhang Da is now not a "famous record", and after Li Xiaoqiang's prompt, he really quickly figured out all the problems. After he figured out all the questions, reporter Zhang Da laughed:

"Hahaha, control flow! , Li Shifo! Your idea of this game of chess is really simple, but I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it......" Speaking of this, Zhang Da reporter looked at Li Xiaoqiang and shook his head repeatedly: "...... Xiaoqiang, you guy, although your reason is simple, I didn't expect the effect of actual combat to be so good. “

"Of course......" Li Xiaoqiang said with a stinky face at this time: "...... He Lao Cao has never seen my Li Xiaoqiang's control flow, and he probably never thought that my Li Xiaoqiang's control flow could be so powerful. Hahahaha......"

That's right, what reporter Zhang Da said just now actually pointed out the two key words why Li Xiaoqiang won chess today. The first keyword, of course, is "control flow". Only by "controlling the flow" can we often fail to see the "construction" and fail to perceive its "destruction". However, this is also a very profound method of Go, and players who are proficient in this method can often unconsciously turn the situation to victory like boiling a frog in warm water.

The second keyword, of course, is Li Shifo. If there is anyone who is most sure of Cao Yanzi in today's world chess world, it is, of course, his precious apprentice Li Shifo.

In the past battles between Li Xiaoqiang and Lao Cao, due to the chess style of the two, the two of them often had fierce battle scenes. Although Li Xiaoqiang won a little more times, it must be admitted that Li Xiaoqiang used this method to compete with Cao Yanzi, in fact, he was not very sure, as evidenced by the frequent dangerous scenes in his previous games.

Therefore, as Li Xiaoqiang said, in order to win safely, in order to ensure a "good start", he learned from Li Shifo's ideas for dealing with Lao Cao, which is of course very normal.

"Judging from today's game of chess, it seems that your control flow is better than Li Shifo."

"Of course, I have a heart and no intention in today's game. Surprise bonuses should be counted. And you have to know that my layout skills are slightly better than Li Shifo. So I don't have to rely on control flow to reverse like he did. So my control flow, at least on the surface, should look a lot like that. ”

"But in today's research room, no one mentioned your chess statue Li Shifo. Everybody says you're acting like someone else today. ”

"Oh? Like whom? ”

"Mr. Wu Qingyuan, everyone says that you played chess like Mr. Wu Qingyuan today."

Hearing that it was Mr. Wu Qingyuan, Li Xiaoqiang smiled slightly:

"I said reporter Zhang Da, in fact, don't forget, Mr. Wu Qingyuan is actually very good at controlling the flow, but his talent in this area is not as outstanding as his other aspects."

What Li Xiaoqiang said is also true, the Japanese Go world at that time was not close to the rules because of the implementation of the rules. Because of this rule, there are naturally two kinds of methods, one is the black method, and the other is the white method. Therefore, in the Japanese chess world at that time, there was a saying that Mr. Wu was "black like Xiuce, white like Xiurong".

As we all know, Japan's Xiuce chess saint is recognized as the originator of "control flow", and the so-called "black is like Xiuce", which means that when Mr. Wu plays black, his play is the standard control flow.

"Now that the times are different, I don't know if everyone will say this in the future: Mr. Wu Qingyuan's chess, he plays black like Li Shifo, and he plays white like Li Xiaoqiang?"

Listening to such a strange remark by reporter Zhang Da, Li Xiaoqiang smiled bitterly:

"I said Zhang Da reporter, why do you sound so awkward......

"Xiaoqiang, what I really mean is actually to say ......" Speaking of this, reporter Zhang Da stared at Li Xiaoqiang with blazing eyes:

"Mr. Wu Qingyuan could make the world 3 eyes back then, so what about you? How many eyes are you going to see in the future? ”

Let the world see 3 eyes!

Hearing such a big topic, Li Xiaoqiang had no choice but to smile bitterly. However, at this time, Li Xiaoqiang seemed to be infected by the arrogance of reporter Zhang Da. He smiled at the reporter:

"Let the world 3 eyes, this is really difficult. But from now on, there is one thing that can be done. ”

"What's the matter?"

"From now on, let me grab a few more World Titles."

"Good! Hahahaha......"

In early March 1997, Li Xiaoqiang defeated Cao Yanzi and entered the top 4 of the World Series again after nearly 2 years. (To be continued.) )
