Shortly after the end of the 5th "World Chess Holy War", the time came to 2010. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Achieved 5 consecutive hegemony in the "World Chess Holy War", which brought Li Xiaoqiang a huge reputation. In January 2010, in Shencheng, Zhang Da's press office, Li Xiaoqiang was reading the relevant reports after the end of the "World Chess Holy War".

"World chess saint, Li Xiaoqiang deserves it!"

"Go is the most complex board game in the world, and Li Xiaoqiang is the undisputed king in this field. The just-concluded World Chess Holy War tells you one thing, the gap between Li Xiaoqiang and others is bigger than everyone thinks, and I even think that as long as Li Xiaoqiang is willing, he can win until the end of the day... ”

"The law of the World Chess Holy War in recent years: Whenever the World Chess Holy War comes, everyone always likes to talk about who is the most suitable challenger and who is likely to end the Li Xiaoqiang dynasty. But whenever the World Chess Holy War is over, everyone will be surprised by Li Xiaoqiang's performance and shocked by his superb skills. Since more than 10 years ago, "Who will beat Li Xiaoqiang?" It is one of the central topics in the Go world, this topic has not ended until now, and will continue to continue, even Li Xiaoqiang himself said; He will continue to hold on until the man who defeated him appears. Can Li Xiaoqiang wait for that person? In the past, the author thought that this question was a bit boring, and the author thought that Li Xiaoqiang would definitely be able to wait for that person, but now---- author also thinks that this question is a bit boring, I have seen Li Xiaoqiang's performance in the World Chess Holy War tiebreaker, facing such Li Xiaoqiang, the god-like Li Xiaoqiang! Is this really something that humans can overcome? Writing here, the author had a whim.,If you want to defeat Li Xiaoqiang,Maybe you can only hope for a major breakthrough in artificial intelligence.。。。 ”

"Hahaha, Xiaoqiang, you read this article... Reporter Zhang Da commented on his peers with a smile: "Even artificial intelligence has come out, but even he himself said that this is really whimsical... ”

Li Xiaoqiang smiled slightly, he also felt that this reporter was "whimsical", he didn't think so, but he was pretending to be modest:

"That's not necessarily, the current computer Go, the progress has been great, before 9 sub-levels can not pass, now I heard that some programs have reached the level of human beings to let 4 to 5 sub-level, technology is not easy to say, maybe one day, human beings are really defeated by the machine is not necessarily."

Reporter Zhang asked more: "Then when do you think that day will come?" ”

"I don't know." Li Xiaoqiang smiled and said, "I just hope... ”

"Hope for what?"

"Hopefully it will come when I can still play chess."

"Hahahaha..." Reporter Zhang Da laughed: "I also think so, a few years later, artificial intelligence swept mankind, and Li Xiaoqiang, who can still play chess, came out of the mountain to help mankind save face." Xiaoqiang, do you say that such a script is enough to pull the wind? ”

Li Xiaoqiang also laughed: "I'll just say that after so many years, I always feel that something is wrong." ”

"What's wrong?"

"With your imagination, being a reporter is obviously condescending, you can be a screenwriter."

This is a joke made by Li Xiaoqiang and reporter Zhang Da, a joke made in 2010. Of course, no one cared about the two of them when they were joking, but even the two parties didn't expect that their joke would come so soon.

In the "World Chess Holy War", he achieved 5 consecutive hegemony and became the first "lifelong World Chess Saint", which gave Li Xiaoqiang a supreme position in the world chess world, which does not mean that Li Xiaoqiang continues to be active. After entering the second decade of the new century, the entire world chess world is the stage of Gu Dali, Li Shishi, Chen Xiaoqiang, Zhou Xiaoyang, Iyama Yuta and South Korea's Xiaoxiaopu.

In 2010, Li Xiaoqiang did not win anything in the international arena, and since 1997, Li Xiaoqiang's record of having a world championship for 13 consecutive years came to an abrupt end, and the "Li Xiaoqiang dynasty" began to waver.

At the beginning of 2011, Li Xiaoqiang ushered in the challenge of his disciple Chen Xiaoqiang in the Chinese Go "Tianyuan Battle". There's nothing to say about an ordinary domestic title match, but a number of other factors give this match an extraordinary meaning and make it particularly interesting.

This is the last domestic title in Li Xiaoqiang's hands, and it is also the one he has dominated for the longest time. By last year, Li Xiaoqiang had achieved 16 consecutive hegemony in the "Tianyuan War", tying Cao Yanzi's record of consecutive hegemony in South Korea's "National Hand War", as long as Li Xiaoqiang wins one more term, he can enjoy this consecutive hegemony record exclusively, can Li Xiaoqiang do it?

In Tongli, the ancient town of Jiangnan, in the decisive game of this year's "Tianyuan War", at the end of the chess game, Chen Xiaoqiang raised his head a little embarrassed:

"Master...

With Chen Xiaoqiang's "master", Li Xiaoqiang handed over the last title in his hand, and he was completely reduced to a crownless situation in China.

Li Xiaoqiang smiled and looked at his beloved apprentice, the current owner of the two most important titles of "Tianyuan" and "celebrity" in China.

"Keep it up."

"I will, master."

Of course, the reporters present knew what the two of them meant, defeating Li Xiaoqiang in the domestic arena was nothing, and only on the highest stage in the international arena, picking off Li Xiaoqiang in the "World Chess Holy War" would really have symbolic significance. The 6th "World Chess Holy War" is in full swing, and Chen Xiaoqiang, who has reached the top 8, is indeed a favorite to get the right to challenge.

Not only Chen Xiaoqiang, but also several other disciples of Li Xiaoqiang also performed well. In fact, in the top 8 lineup of this year's "World Chess Holy War", Li Xiaoqiang's disciples occupy more than half of the country.

In fact, with the decline of Li Xiaoqiang's performance in the past two years, and with the gradual silence, the hot topic in the Go world is no longer Li Xiaoqiang's exquisite skills, but his gaze---- no one can figure out why Li Xiaoqiang's gaze can be so accurate and can cultivate a group of such outstanding disciples.

"Xiaoqiang, you guy, what do you want to say about you? You've really degenerated into a hero who only wins 5 games in two years. ”

Facing the ridicule of reporter Zhang Da, Li Xiaoqiang smiled. It should be noted that the time when reporter Zhang Da said this was at the end of 2013. In this year, young Chinese chess players swept the world chess scene, and six chess players won six world championships. What's even more interesting is that these 6 chess players are all from Li Xiaoqiang's disciples. Therefore, the saying that "Li Xiaoqiang's new six supers" is well-known in the world chess world.

Of course, no matter how good a disciple is, he can't hide the light of the master. When reporter Zhang Da said this, Li Xiaoqiang had just repelled the challenge of his other disciple, that is, Japan's Iyama Yuta, in the 7th "World Chess Holy War", and achieved an incredible 7 consecutive hegemony.

This is the second time that Li Xiaoqiang has ushered in the challenge of his disciples after Chen Xiaoqiang two years ago. But no matter how Li Xiaoqiang loses in other games, no matter how young people impact, as long as it comes to the "World Chess Holy War", Li Xiaoqiang will be extremely powerful and unshakable.

This is a unique landscape in the world chess world, and it is also the reason why reporter Zhang Da ridiculed Li Xiaoqiang so much:

A hero who has only won 5 games in two years.

"Hehe, I don't know which of my disciples will come up next time?" In the face of Zhang Da's ridicule, Li Xiaoqiang responded in a somewhat sassy tone.

What Li Xiaoqiang didn't expect was that two years later, that is, at the end of 2015, not only did he not meet the challenge of his disciples, but even the "World Chess Holy War" itself was overshadowed by another major event in the Go world.

A fat dog is coming!
