23 Ideal

"As professional chess players, what responsibility should we carry?"

Jiang Bingbing listened to Yue Jianping, who was usually silent, suddenly spit out such a large paragraph, and her eyes were suddenly full of smiles.

Although she lost, she didn't admit that she lost to the "Dongdong" who had no teacher in the audience, even if it was Dongdong's way of war that Dongdong had always shown in front of everyone. But in the end, she was only willing to admit that she was inferior in skills, and she was defeated by Yue Jianping, who was also born in a famous family.

The arrogance of being undefeated for many years, as well as the world she has been exposed to all along, and the education she has received since childhood.

all made her understand that the so-called "class" really exists in this world, and this complex world made her understand that people live just to earn a lot of money that everyone envy in the future.

Whether it's a student studying, an office worker working, or even a professional chess player like them, isn't it all about earning a lot of money that most people can afford one day in the future?

She looked at Yue Jianping, whose face was full of ideals, and she smiled and said the so-called truth of the world's famous mouths to admonish young people.

She said: "Although I admit that I lost, do you think that just a game of chess can prove that her years of hard work can catch up with the joint efforts of several generations of our teacher?" ”

"Even if she did catch up with me, but this game is not over yet, what will she do to defeat the famous Li Tiandao and you and Sun Pojun?"

"Just with her passion? And that laughing insistence in your mouth? ”

"Do you know these things, but they're the cheapest things in the world!"

"As professional chess players, instead of showing the audience these cheap qualities, I think we should show the audience and those who are eager to learn chess, and show the commercial value of chess itself and the future potential of chess!"

……

Dongdong didn't know if she could catch up with Li Tiandao, Sun Pojun and Yue Jianping, and she didn't know if she could easily defeat the overly arrogant Jiang Bingbing on the stage like Yue Jianping.

She now seems to know only that since the ant has the courage to shake the elephant, the praying mantis has the persistence to dare to block the galloping carriage. Then her little pawn, facing three people whose chess strength far exceeds her own, what is she worth fearing?

She also smiled with relief, and walked out of the arena with light steps.

The heavy rain outside the stadium finally began to clear up as the sun appeared. It was the sunset that appeared in the western mountains, but it seemed to be comparable to the morning sun of dawn in the cloudy sky.

She looked at the sunset, and she suddenly felt a little more proud and ambitious in her heart, and a little more determined in her eyes.

"Isn't it also the responsibility of professional chess players to do their best to win?" She muttered to herself: "Shouldn't the commercial value of chess, as well as the future potential of chess, also rely on every ordinary professional chess player to come out step by step?" ”

It's a pity that Yue Jianping didn't hear Dongdong muttering outside the field.

He looked at Jiang Bingbing's persistent and cold face, and he suddenly felt that his ideals were really too naΓ―ve and naΓ―ve sometimes?

Obviously, he is just an ordinary chess player who has just entered the professional chess world, what qualifications do he have to help define chess?

But he also quickly saw his eyes firm again.

Because, he thought of his master, the master who gave up all honor and prosperity and devoted himself to the most basic education of chess.

He also remembered that back then, when he was born with six fingers, when he was regarded as a monster by everyone, only his master would never abandon him.

He remembered what his master had said when he first saw the six fingers he had hidden behind his back.

"It's a natural hand to pinch a chess piece," he said. ”

When he was full of despair, he looked at the master with a surprised face, and he thought that his master was lying to him.

As a result, his master looked at him with a questioning face and said something that changed Yue Jianping's life.

"Xiangqi, but the most inclusive chess in China, it is not like Go, and the adults and children who choose it have the talent to learn it. It's just a matter of whether the person who chooses it is trying hard enough. You are born with six fingers, and you are born with the talent to work harder than many children. ”

"As long as you have all your six fingers calloused, then you will naturally go further than other people who have five fingers with calluses."

Although these words are not worth scrutinizing now.

But at that time, this sentence made Yue Jianping work harder than anyone else.

It is precisely because of his hard work that he was able to stand out in such a competitive chess tournament and defeat his old rival Jiang Bingbing.

He shook his head and looked at Jiang Bingbing, who was full of pride, and he said coldly: "In this world, there are many people who learn chess for the purpose of not making a lot of money in the future. It's because he only has chess in his life. ”

……

Lao Zhou watched the live broadcast on TV, and he took a sip of old wine.

Opposite him, there was also an old man who was also old, and the old man looked at Yue Jianping on TV, smiling like a flower.

"It seems that I didn't make a wrong choice at the beginning, he is indeed a person worthy of trust."

Lao Zhou didn't answer, he just looked at the old man opposite thoughtfully.

"Then you... Are you ready? ”

"Of course, I've been ready since a year ago." After the old man said this, he inadvertently straightened his chest.

"It's a pity, it's really not the right time for the eldest brother to go, if he can live until the end of this year's professional chess player assessment, how happy he should be to see so many talents!" The old man said with some melancholy.

Then, his eyes burst into a startling light that had never been seen before.

"However, even if the king does not regret the departure of his eldest brother, then we, the old bones, should go and shelter the young people from the wind and rain."

"Especially, in this era of the rise of chess, it is time for us, the old bones, to wash away the shame left by the two devils to our time."

"Do you have faith? Do you have the confidence to face the most advanced artificial intelligence and defeat them? ”

"Absolutely! After all, chess is not just a matter of personal computing power, chess, and more of our human wisdom! ”

The old man smiled and looked at Yue Jianping on TV again, and he said slowly: "Just like my apprentice said, Xiangqi should show not only its commercial value but also its future potential, its spirit, its history, and its inheritance, and it should be remembered by all Chinese people!" ”

"Value can be replaced, potential can be drowned, but spirit and ideals can never be replaced!"
