Yang Zheng uses "harmony" to express his attitude.

This was his deliberate choice, and it was also his realization.

It is not difficult to win, it is not difficult to lose, and the most difficult thing about chess is that "harmony" is precious.

Because if you want to value harmony, you must first let go of impetuousness, and then let go of utilitarianism.

In the rolling red dust, the most difficult thing is to let go of these two words.

Especially in everyone's young adulthood, letting go not only means failure, but also means cowardice.

But sometimes letting go can actually represent a kind of courage to start over.

Yang Zheng was mentally prepared to be eliminated at the same time, and in his mind, Witte's words resurfaced again, and now it seems that the biggest enemy he faces is no longer himself, but one rule after another.

But what he didn't expect was that the referee of this game looked at this game of chess and finally announced that he and the old man were advancing at the same time.

"You're such a good man!"

This result did not make many people feel unfair, but many people praised Yang Zheng's draw.

But Yang Zheng listened to the word "good man", but he fell into a long silence.

Because in normal times, he will definitely be very happy to hear someone call himself a good person, after all, the spiritual pleasure of helping others is far more satisfying than the material one.

But now everyone's eyes make him feel extremely uncomfortable.

Because the old man opposite has now become a vulnerable group in the eyes of the vast majority of people.

It is true that the old man's chess skills are not high, and he is indeed not in good shape, but he has told himself about his philosophy of life from this game of chess.

That's not giving up.

Although he did release water at the beginning, the old man's wave after wave of strong attacks made him see what is rarely seen in ordinary times - the strength of a man.

When he hesitated, the old man actually took the initiative to enlighten himself, he said that our time is very long, we can go down slowly.

An old man who has almost completed a lifetime of life journey, can say this, which not only means that he has an optimistic spirit, but also that he has the courage to face death that ordinary people do not have.

There are always only two main themes in life.

That is hope and courage.

Everyone who fights cancer is not weak, on the contrary, they are still warriors, because they know that there is little hope ahead, but they still have the courage to fight with the sky.

If you draw chess, you can only let others see that you are just a good person, and ignore a real warrior.

Then his "and" is meaningless.

But when Yang Zheng was about to speak, the old man opposite preemptively said, "Then we have an appointment, see you in the final!" ”

These sonorous and powerful nine words made Yang Zheng's gloomy face bloom with a smile.

"Then we'll see you in the finals!"

……

Yang Zheng walked on the road, and the fat man's praise made him a little embarrassed.

Because instead of saying that he is a good man, the fat man says that he is a smart man.

He hadn't heard this kind of praise for a long time, and from the fat man's eyes, it could be seen that his praise was not because he took the initiative to draw, but because he used this way to add more hope to the old man's life.

Sometimes it is very comfortable to communicate with such a person with high emotional intelligence, because he can look at things dialectically.

But too high emotional intelligence is not necessarily a good thing, because people with high emotional intelligence see many things too thoroughly, and they are also used to judging the quality of things by themselves.

Such people live very tired, and sometimes they live very painfully.

Even for a long time, they fall into self-doubt.

Just like the fat man, although he had a smile on his face, Yang Zheng still saw the sadness he hid in his heart.

"Can't you take another day off?" Yang Zheng couldn't help but feel a little sorry, because the fat man's strength was stronger than most amateur chess players, and he had a good chance to fight in the crowd of thousands of troops and become a professional chess player.

"I can't." The fat man sighed.

"There are mortgages to be repaid, and parents and wives and children have to be supported, and these expenses are not affordable for ordinary professional chess players."

The fat man said very realistically, he is about the same age as Yang Zheng, he is not a house slave, his parents have worked hard for most of their lives in the city of Shangjing to build a small three-bedroom apartment of 80 square meters.

But with the fat man getting married, the small three-bedroom of 80 square meters is obviously a bit small, and the fat man and the old couple discussed and sold the old house, and made a down payment for a big house of more than 140 square meters.

A loan of 100,000 yuan a month is something that most professional chess players dare not imagine and cannot do.

Fat people are indeed under a lot of pressure, and they basically don't have much left after paying off the mortgage every month, and sometimes they have to rely on the relief of their parents to cope with some unexpected situations.

This is also a portrayal of most ordinary young people in China, but Yang Zheng sometimes feels that it is really not easy for such a high-pressure fat person to persist for so long.

The only thing I can do is to support the fat man's choice.

Perhaps seeing Yang Zheng's dim eyes, the fat man patted Yang Zheng's shoulder and said, "Don't think too much, my son will have to be taught by you in the future!" ”

Although he heard that this was a comforting word, Yang Zheng also nodded vigorously, and in his heart, he also regarded this sentence as a friend's agreement.

Fat Man's next opponent was a chess master, who took advantage of the advantage of the first move to kill Fat Man and discarded his armor, and it only took fifteen minutes to kill the game.

The fat man looked at this kind of ending, and he didn't react for a long time.

He just sat there stupidly, staring at the chessboard.

He also thought about how he would end today's game, and in his many fantasies, he would never lose as much as he did now.

But the reality is so cruel, although this seems to be an amateur game, there are still strong players in it who do not lose to most professional chess players.

"Alas!" He sat for a long time, and it wasn't until someone urged him to finally leave his seat.

It turned out that the feeling of losing chess was like this, and he couldn't help but sigh.

There is no unwillingness, no remorse, just can't stop hearing his own heartbeat, just like someone hitting his heart with a hammer, the jumping and piercing sound covers up all the sounds of the world.

It only took him three steps to walk on the road, and the familiar smile on his face returned.

He walked to Yang Zheng's side with a smile, looked at Yang Zheng with a worried face, and the voice in his heart unexpectedly became extraordinarily calm.

"You will definitely become a professional chess player, and my son will have to be taught by you in the future..."

The fat man's voice became very low for the first time, as if he was questioning something again, and when he came back to his senses again, he seemed to realize that he had said something wrong, and when he was about to apologize, he heard Yang Zheng's sonorous reply.

"I'm going to be a professional chess player, and I'm not sure if your son can become a professional chess player. But what I know for sure is that I will wait for you to become a professional chess player as well. ”

The fat man listened to Yang Zheng's words, and the smile on his face slowly faded.

"I really like chess, I've loved it since I was a child, I'm so unwilling, I'm really unwilling..."
