"Inexplicably, humans and robots are not at the same height and should not race. An inappropriate analogy, it's like a horse and a car racing in a race with different structures and an unfair outcome. ”

The business tycoon has a point, and he has found a reasonable excuse for human failure, and has won a strong voice. In fact, human beings manufacture intelligent products for the advancement of science and technology and the liberation of labor.

However, a certain Go master who took a back seat refuted this, and his tone was very polite, except for one sentence, it is better for laymen who do not know how to play chess to talk less.

People who love Go immediately stand on the side of the Go master, since it is a competition, it is to distinguish the high and low, and don't come out and be embarrassed if you don't have the ability to go home. Everyone greeted this Go master to come out of the mountain and fight with the dragon. Taidou said that he will continue to monitor this matter, and he prefers to give the opportunity to young players.

All major well-known media have sent front-line reporters to Linhai City and settled in Linhai University, making this university the focus of attention.

Zhou Xuan's Magi company is operating normally, and he often goes to the school's scientific research base, and he does not forget to read the newspaper and surf the Internet every day, and does not let go of any information about the competition.

I don't know if it's patriotism or the temptation of money, but the number of contestants who signed up for the competition was much larger than the previous estimate, reaching 10,000, so that the hotels near Linhai University were full.

Yan Pingchuan ordered all the school's conference rooms to be poured out and put on the Go table, and even invested a sum of money to buy Go. In the eyes of the school's faculty and staff, the principal is not doing his job, and there are many discussions in private, saying that it interferes with the normal order of students' classes, and that the publicity for the school relies on comprehensive strength and academic achievements, rather than hype.

Yan Pingchuan went his own way, didn't care what others said, and even personally served as the referee of the rematch, but his face was always gloomy, giving people an invisible pressure.

The audition officially began, the rules are quite simple, the computer randomly selects, two by two, and a game elimination system. That is to say, there is only one chance for the contestants, and if they lose, they can only honestly go to the back to watch the game, and then play against other winners if they win, and then lose or the same result, and finally select 50 players in the professional group and the amateur group to enter the finals.

Some people protested against this, and at least it should be a best-of-three game, after all, everyone makes mistakes. However, on the battlefield, there is no room for mistakes.

At this moment, Zhou Xuan finally realized Yan Pingchuan's good intentions, and did not let him participate in the audition, because he was afraid that if he made a mistake and lost a game, he would miss the opportunity to contact with how to train your dragon. On the other hand, Yan Pingchuan was not sure that Zhou Xuan would definitely win the game, and he was not completely sure.

There are too many players participating in the competition, and it is overcrowded, and no one will notice that some people directly advance to the semi-finals through relationships.

However, it is worth mentioning that there is a huge difference between the professional and amateur groups. The professional group is much more refreshing, only six people signed up, five of them are champions of various competitions, and the remaining one is not a champion, and the interested one took the initiative to quit.

According to the process of the event, these five people do not need to compete at all, and can directly advance to the finals.

The 10,000 people in the competition are amateurs, but no one thinks that the two groups are unfair, and in everyone's opinion, amateurs cannot be compared with professional players, and it is difficult to compare.

A selection tournament has become a national entertainment for amateur chess players, and the focus of media attention is actually the five professional players, and the event here is only occasionally reported.

There was another one-sided discussion on the Internet, thinking that setting up an amateur group was too much, and if the professional players couldn't win, the amateurs would have no fun, and some people began to question the motives of the organizers.

Public opinion has forced the relevant functional departments to speak, and the competition between amateur players is a very important part of the development of the Go career, and through this matter, it can also reflect the current situation of Go in China, and there is also to cultivate everyone's hobby for Go.

"Zhou Xuan, I heard that you have a good thing again?" Pei Shengnan entered the room and asked with a smile.

"Listen to your mom again?" Zhou Xuan asked.

"Congratulations, you guessed it! I heard that you signed up for this Go tournament and were directly entered into the semi-finals. Pei Shengnan said.

"It's a good thing, and I'm under a lot of pressure." Zhou Xuan waved his hand, knowing how the news reached Pei Shengnan's ears.

"Of course it's a good thing, if you win, two million dollars, I, as your mentor, can I also get some light!" Pei Shengnan's face turned into a flower, in her opinion, Zhou Xuan was always a miracle worker, and his luck was amazingly good.

"Don't talk nonsense, if the players outside hear it, they'll think I'm cheating." Zhou Xuan said.

"Hush money!"

"Don't give it!"

"Oh, then I can't keep my mouth shut."

"Teacher Pei, if the news leaks, that stern old man will definitely expel you." Zhou Xuan had to scare her, although he knew that this should not happen.

"Hmph, he used Principal Yan to press me again, but when his old face was pulled down, it was really scary. Forget it, if you win, just buy me a few more sets of underwear. Pei Shengnan retreated.

"It's not good!"

Zhou Xuan waved his hand, when he first came to this era, he was very confused about everything, but now it is completely different, he already understands the meaning of that thing, and he can't just give it away.

"Must buy! Otherwise......" Pei Shengnan's face turned red, and he came over to pull Zhou Xuan's ears again.

"Okay, I'll give you the money to buy underwear." Zhou Xuan said, took out a wad of money and put it on the table, and left the base office while Pei Shengnan was counting the money.

The auditions are in full swing, and the rules are rapid, with each game lasting two hours and each drop within one minute. There was a shortage of manpower, and the losing players volunteered to be referees and took the opportunity to observe and learn.

Linhai University is full of people, shapes and shapes, some are happy, some sigh, and some take the opportunity to make friends, in and out, as if it has become a banquet of flowing water.

The school has increased the security force, which can not affect the normal teaching order, but fortunately, I can become a chess player, I have a calm heart, and the quality is good.

Zhou Xuan went to the scene of several auditions, and most of the chess players who were dressed in suits and leather shoes were exquisite, and there were also simple faces from various industries at the grassroots level, beating their chests in anger in order to play the wrong chess.

Watching chess is not a true gentleman, Zhou Xuan just looks casually, there are not many young people in the amateur group, and no one pays too much attention to him.

In a corner of a hall, Zhou Xuan saw an old man in a Taoist robe, playing chess as if he were not moving, and the opponent was actually a child about ten years old, this strange combination was very eye-catching.

The child has a chubby face that is white and red, but his expression has a calmness that does not match his age, the Taoist priest has his back to Zhou Xuan, and he can't see his face clearly, and the referee of this game actually fell asleep on the chair.

Why did the Taoist priest also come to the competition? Zhou Xuan became interested and hurriedly walked over.
