It's easy to say but hard to do.

Because this world will always promote some wrong values, intentionally or unintentionally.

When Yang Zheng returned home, after eating, he lay on the bed, thinking about his future rarely.

What does he think about the future? Will he spend his life as ordinary as Lao Zhang, or will he have a life that Lao Zhang envies in the chess world?

For the current Yang Zheng, chess has long since changed from an initial hobby to a livelihood occupation. It's more like life, everywhere; He is also like air, maintaining Yang Zheng's boring life. Generally speaking, when a hobby turns into a career, most practitioners lose the original pleasure of the hobby. But Yang Zheng thinks that when a hobby becomes a career, it should be more fun. And those who say that they will lose their fun, maybe they didn't love their "interest" that much in the first place.

Flipping through his mobile phone, the overwhelming entertainment news was mixed with sporadic major news at home and abroad, and Yang Zheng was upset when he watched it.

The untrue news that occasionally jumped out made Yang Zheng feel stuffy in his chest, and he looked out the window at the lights of high-rise buildings that were brighter than the stars.

Suddenly, he thought about a question, what kind of world is the real world?

……

It was already nine o'clock in the morning when Yang Zheng came to the chess club, and he looked at the empty chess club, quite surprised.

He called the chess nerd, but found that her mobile phone was rarely turned off, he called Wang Qi again, only to get a reply to let him watch today's news, and hung up in a hurry.

Yang Zheng listened to the noise on her side, turned on his mobile phone in a panic, searched for today's news, and after avoiding all kinds of entertainment news, he finally found a report about chess in the corner.

He was a little shocked, and even more incredulous.

Because the report said that yesterday, a total of more than 200 professional chess players, including chess anchors, used chess software to brush the winning rate, and after being reported and verified, the official took measures to ban the account.

More than 200 people, which may not sound like a lot of people. But for Yang Zheng, who has already half-footed in the professional chess world, this is almost one-tenth of the number of professional and amateur chess practitioners today.

This huge number made Yang Zheng feel sad while shocking. There seemed to be a voice in his ears that kept echoing.

"Huaxia chess, is it really declining like this?"

……

"It's a shame." In the Chinese Chess Association, a middle-aged man slammed his teacup and scolded angrily.

In front of him, there are a full number of professional chess players, almost all of these professional chess players are active, and among so many chess players, there are also chess nerds familiar to Yang Zheng, Peng Fei, Ghost Hands, Lao Zhang, Wang Qi and others.

They looked at the angry middle-aged man, with different expressions on their faces. It doesn't matter, it's sad, it's angry, it's hurting itself, and there are even people with a look of joy on their faces.

There was a young man who didn't look very old, looked at the middle-aged man who was angry, and kindly persuaded: "Chairman Li, don't be angry! Anyway, the news is just a sporadic tip, and it doesn't affect the reputation of the current senior professional chess players in our association. ”

"You know what?" After hearing this, Chairman Li was even more annoyed: "I'm not angry that these players are cheating, I'm angry that it's not our chess association that announced the ban list, but the software that we see in chess every day!" Do they take into account the reputation of our association? Are they not taking our chess association seriously? ”

Chairman Lee's words were incredible.

But in the end, they accepted this fact as a matter of course. After all, since the death of Wang Buregret, the last president of the Chess Association, the Chess Association has leveled a new president, who was born as a successful businessman and has a fortune of hundreds of millions. Although he only knew a little about chess, with the emergence of this new president, the chess association, which had been losing money for decades, finally began to make a profit in the past few months.

After all, in the eyes of businessmen, what is pretended is always profit and price.

He may not care about the reputation of chess, but he definitely cares about the value of chess.

What is value? It is nothing more than the value of whether chess can be profitable or not.

As for the spirit of chess that Wang Buregret has always advocated, it has long been reduced to a joke in his eyes!

"Good! Good! Good! Since you're saying that more than 200 of us are using software to win our opponents, okay, I'll issue a bounty here. As long as someone here holds the name of the Chess Association to the highest rank of that software, then I will personally reward 10,000 yuan. If you can rely on your own strength to reach the top 10 of that software, I will personally reward rewards ranging from 100,000 to 200,000 yuan. "Chairman Lee was clearly murderous, but he was also smart enough to understand the futility of justifying himself. He also understands that the chess world is just like the real world, only looking at the victory and defeat, not the process.

Just as history is always written by winners, the same is true in the world of chess and even in the virtual world.

"However, among the more than 200 people, there are really players who use software to obtain ill-gotten gains." Unlike most of the professional chess players around him who were full of excitement, Peng Fei swept away the anger on his face, he looked at the list of players with the names of the players, and said slowly with the courage he didn't know where to go.

But unexpectedly, when Chairman Lee heard this, he laughed out loud again.

"Even if everyone on the list actually used software to win, as the test said, so what? Remember, this is a world of the jungle. If you want to keep chess from following in the footsteps of those traditional cultures that have disappeared, you must learn to let go, and you must learn to fight for it. ”

"Otherwise, President Wang, wouldn't he die in vain?"
