"The competition of the Harbin leg of the Japan-China Ring Tournament has ended. The Japanese side Yamashiro Hiroshi 9th dan ended the Chinese Li Xiaoqiang's 5-game winning streak in the third dan. Like many chess fans, the reporter also had the feeling of "finally breathing a sigh of relief". Now that the ring competition has been carried out, it can be said that it has entered a new stage. ”

"In the previous stage of the ring match, there was no doubt that the only protagonist was Li Xiaoqiang of the Chinese side. I'm afraid no one will dispute this. His game is over, but the impact he brings, the richness he shows on the board, the aura of mystery on him. It will become a topic of conversation in the Go world. No! Perhaps to say that the topic is a bit light, more accurately described, this should be a "phenomenon". That's right, the Li Xiaoqiang phenomenon in the Go world! His performance is indeed phenomenal. ”

"Journalists have been trying to paint a complete picture of the mysterious teenager. Show his true face in front of the majority of chess fans. But it's a pity that the reporter is desperate to find out, even now. At my own level, I can't do that. The biggest problem with this is that it is impossible to judge his true strength. In order to complete the tasks given by the magazine social. When the reporter scratched his head and prepared to write this article. The reporter suddenly found that this question does not seem to be important at all! ”

"Yes, the question doesn't matter at all! To prove that I'm not quibbling, it just so happens that I have a simple experience about this Chinese teenager on hand. Let's take a look back at his path to Go:"

Fifteen months ago, for the first time, a Chinese teenager played against a professional chess player, and his opponent was China's Chen Chaoyue Jiudan. At that time, Chen Jiuduan let him have two sons! ”

"Ten months ago, the Chinese teenager was faced with the hero of Dazhu Jiudan. No matter how many reasons we make, we must admit that in the words of the Chinese teenager himself. Mr. Otake let the first really did not win him. ”

"Five months ago, a Chinese teenager faced China's No. 2 man, Ma Xiaofei, in the ninth section. The third game lost 1-2. Although I lost chess, what I want to tell you here is. In that trilogy, the Chinese boy once slaughtered a large dragon with more than 100 orders in Ma Jiuduan. And in that trilogy final rapid tiebreaker. The Chinese teenager was reversed by Ma Jiuduan, and the half-eye was reversed! ”

"Now, I don't think I need to say more. The "veteran defense line" carefully constructed by Japanese Go was crushed by a 12-year-old Chinese teenager in one fell swoop. Although there are many surprises in it, we must admit that it is a fact! ”

"I've said so much, you should know what I mean. Any judgment about his chess prowess is likely to become a joke in a very short period of time. Journalists dodge this question because they don't want to be a joke! Compare it to this. The speed of his progress is what we should really be concerned about! ”

"Have you ever seen this rate of progress? It seems that there is not, and the reporter has also interviewed many famous people in the Go world on this issue. Zhao Zhixun, who successfully entered the section at the age of 11, said in the ninth section: Compared with the progress speed of this Chinese teenager, he is completely a stupid child. ”

"When Mr. Cho first came to Japan, he was known as a Korean prodigy. His entry speed and ramp-up speed are record-breaking. Mr. Zhao, who set records, is still a "stupid child" in front of him, so in the Go world, is there anyone who can compare with him? And more importantly, how did he do it? ”

"One of my Chinese colleagues once jokingly told me. The mysterious boy once told my Chinese counterpart that he was practicing a more advanced form of Go. Like many people, when I first heard this sentence. I'm just joking. But now it's different, I now vaguely feel that he is not joking, and that what he is practicing may really be a more advanced game of Go. Because I'm thinking of a person. A person who has a similar experience in learning chess to him, and whose speed of progress is almost comparable to his. This person is the "Showa no Chess Saint", this person. It's Mr. Wu Qingyuan! ”

"When Mr. Wu first arrived in Japan at the age of 13, he was defined as a three-dan game of Go by the Japanese at that time. In fact, we know that Mr. Wu at that time. His chess strength should be more than three dans. At least Mr. Wu's senior brother at that time, the "genius Utaro" in the Japanese Go world, won less and lost more against Mr. Wu at that time. ”

"All along, we have only noticed Mr. Wu's talent for Go and his growth in Japan. How many people have wondered how he could have reached such a high level at the age of 13? Is it just because of his talent for Go? I don't think so. Similar to this mysterious boy, they both came from studying ancient Chinese chess when they were young. This is probably the most important reason! ”

"To be honest with everyone, when this conclusion was reached. I felt like I must be crazy, and I couldn't take it at all. The ancient Chinese chess that we have always despised and looked down on by us...... Will it be a "more advanced game of Go"? Until now, I won't admit it. I really wanted to refute it, and I found many reasons to refute it! ”

"It's a pity when I'm ready to refute it with confidence. I realized that I couldn't do it, and I did find a lot of reasons to find many of the advantages of Japanese Go as my own reasons. Unfortunately, I still can't refute it, because I don't know anything about ancient Chinese chess. Due to the "seat system" and "returning the chess head", ancient Chinese chess is a completely different kind of Go. Who would dare to refute what they don't understand? At least I don't dare, I don't dare to say anything. ”

"Is it a more advanced game of Go? My heart won't admit it, and I don't dare to refute it. That's my attitude. Is there an answer to this question? Maybe not yet. But don't worry, I'm sure we'll be able to see the answer. It's all because of this Chinese teenager. That's right, to solve this mystery, the key lies in the mysterious boy! ”

"In his games, we can see that his Go talent may not be top-notch, and his Go thinking is far from mature. Many of his whimsical ideas rely more on "flash of inspiration". But there is one thing I have no doubt about is that he will be able to grow quickly. When he grows up, it's time to solve the mystery. ”

"Is this day going to be a long wait? Journalists are also not sure. Because everyone knows that the higher the level of Go, the more difficult it is to make a breakthrough. There are also many examples in the world of Go, where there are many players who improve quickly at a young age, but are unable to make a breakthrough in their lifetime. The reasons for this are complex, including talent, opportunity, and other factors. However, I have a feeling that that Chinese teenager will be able to continue to break through and grow up! ”

"It's just my feelings, and I can't say anything about it. If you want to talk about the reason, maybe Mr. Fujisawa Hideyuki said that he has the "temperament of a first-class winner and loser". In addition to this, when I think of the mysterious boy, there are two images that linger in my mind. These two images are so impressive to me that I can't help but use them as my own reasons. ”

"The first scene is when he walks out of the game room after he defeats Mr. Ohira. The moment he first walked out, he was clearly still immersed in the chess game. He was greeted outside by chess fans who were celebrating him. After a brief moment of astonishment...... I've been watching from the sidelines, and I can't describe the picture. All I can say is that I was blown away. He blends in so naturally with the crowd around him. At the same time he is so different, yes, different! He walked through the crowd, and even at night, he seemed to be shining. ”

"The second scene, after you lose to Mr. Hiroshi Yamashiro, is also the moment he walks out of the game room. His face was expressionless, and he looked into the distance. I don't know what Lu Dao is looking at, I only know Lu Dao, and I see firmness and determination in his eyes. Does he want to see his future, or is he looking for a way to the future......"

"Let's wait and see if my feelings are correct!"

"Whatever the reason, the Japanese Go community is keen to see him grow. Finally, let's conclude the article with the original words of our Japanese Go "rookie king" Kiki Ita. ”

"Li Sang is strong, really strong! I sincerely wish him a speedy growth and every point of his growth. Our determination to fight to the end in the Japanese Go community will also be strengthened! ”

The article by the chief observer reporter of "Qidao" magazine was published. It has once again impacted the entire Japanese chess world. The topic of Li Xiaoqiang has once again become the most fashionable topic in the Japanese Go world.

"Hmph, that monster, is it really that powerful?"

Is this the true idea of a certain flower girl?

Of course, the protagonist of the topic doesn't know everything that happens in Japan, and he doesn't know anything. Of course, the domestic media is also praising Li Xiaoqiang. But Li Xiaoqiang didn't care at all.

We Chinese have a habit that our own children are not good to boast about, and all the media that really care about Li Xiaoqiang, love Li Xiaoqiang, and treat Li Xiaoqiang as their own family. Boasting is a bit like scratching the itch in the boots, and the point is up, which makes Li Xiaoqiang very dissatisfied and not enjoyable, thinking that he has not praised the idea.

As for other media...... Will Li Xiaoqiang care?

Li Xiaoqiang doesn't care about this, what does he care about now:

"Dabao, Dabao, come over quickly, you put 4 on the table and let me cut you a plate...... What the? Do you have something? What can you do, come here. If you agree, I won't call you Hei in the future...... (To be continued......)
