If you put it before today's game, you see the opponent you want to surpass appear in front of you.

Li Tiandao will definitely challenge him desperately.

But also because he saw today's game, Li Tiandao also realized that his current self, whether it is chess strength or mentality, is not suitable to challenge the chess master.

He seems to have grown up today, and today he realizes that he seems to have become a little arrogant because of a series of victories.

Therefore, after seeing Peng Fei, an intriguing expression appeared on his face at first, and then returned to his previous blandness.

He actually took the initiative to say hello to his senior brother, or the opponent who was regarded as a lifelong enemy.

Peng Fei looked at Li Tiandao, who had such a correct attitude, he touched his head uncomfortably, responded to Li Tiandao's greeting with a smile, and his evaluation of him in his heart also rose a few points.

For what his junior wants to challenge himself, his ears are about to become calloused. He was not averse to accepting the challenge, because when he was still in the chess academy, he met many "thorns" who wanted to challenge him to become famous overnight.

At that time, he was all about chess, and he did not refuse their challenges.

This also led to Pengfei gaining the nickname of "Iron Man" during that time.

But with the change of age and identity, Peng Fei also realized how naïve his previous behavior was.

The naivety is not that the comers do not refuse, but that they are always ruthless when facing those challengers who are actually many well-intentioned and willing to learn.

He also began to regret it a little, because of his ruthlessness, many young and promising chess players turned to other chess sports because of their losses.

But even if he showed mercy back then, those chess players who used "failure" as an excuse to "switch" to other chess sports would most likely not insist.

After all, there are fewer and fewer people who can stick to the ground when it comes to chess.

In particular, ten years ago, chess could not be used as a chess sport as a bonus option for prestigious schools, and people who were willing to practice chess persistently were more enthusiastic.

At that time, he had seen too many people who were forced by their families to switch to the national elephant, Go, and even shogi in the island country.

Of course, there are even fewer people who come out on top.

Because they have switched to other chess sports, it is as if they have forgotten the word down-to-earth.

Down-to-earth, these four words don't seem to be too important in today's society, after all, the Internet is full of many Internet celebrities and anchors who got rich overnight.

Some people who pretend to be ugly can earn more than ten years of ordinary people's income overnight.

What's even more frightening is that there are still many young people who see them as faith.

Opportunity, laugh at the poor and not at the prostitute, first use face to earn money, and then use money to buy back face.

have become inspirational quotes for Internet celebrities on the Internet.

But these words don't apply to chess.

Because of some accomplished professional chess players, including Peng Fei, who hasn't come out step by step with their feet on the ground?

Especially Peng Fei, even at his most dazzling age, was robbed of all his honor by the South Vietnamese little chess player. Nor did he have the idea of giving up chess.

He practiced more desperately, and regarded Aggie at that time as his goal.

Even... He also made an oath that he would not be able to defeat Aji and not be a master.

Although he was indeed depressed for a period of time because of live broadcasts and advertising endorsements, as well as the guidance of many values on the Internet. However, under the guidance of Yang Zheng, he now pays more attention to the improvement of chess skills.

During this time, he also reduced the number of live broadcasts and focused his time and energy on competitions and practice.

He is not stupid, he knows why Qian Duoduo invited him and Li Tiandao to eat at the same time.

undoubtedly wants the young Li Tiandao to stand in line in the chess world in advance.

Speaking of the young generation in the chess world, Peng Fei has a headache.

Originally, there was no real faction in the chess world, at most, because of the different styles of chess, there were factions in the north and south. However, since the death of the king without regret and the new president took office, there has been a faction in the chess world in the name of competition.

Especially among young chess players, this so-called competition is even more intense.

Of course, there is also a reason that the salary of professional chess players is gradually rising.

In the past, a chess player like Peng Fei who had just entered the chess master rank, if there was no competition in a month, he would only get three to five thousand.

And the chess players who are lower than him are only 1,200 yuan a month.

This slightly shabby salary also forced the chess players to fend for themselves, and in addition to the competition, they had to work part-time as apprentices and teachers.

Of course, this is still something that every professional chess player can enjoy only after Wang Buregret's hard work - the minimum living guarantee.

But the new president came up, and with the appearance of chess every day, the income of their professional chess players also rose.

The minimum guarantee of 1200 became 3000, and a chess master like him could get more than 10,000 a month. This is undoubtedly a huge expense. But the new president, who is a wealthy man, doesn't seem to care, and he also releases a quest card for extra income. For example, how long the live broadcast lasts and how much money is rewarded, and for example, if you wear clothes printed with a certain logo to participate in the competition, you can also get additional "endorsement fees".

He used to be obsessed with this, but when he came to his senses, he realized that the new chairman was born as a businessman. Under his publicity, every day chess saw another financing of nearly one billion. And the more brands he endorses, as the president, his reputation and income have also increased a lot.

If it weren't for the fact that chess is not too spectacular, under the almost genius operation of the new president, maybe the traffic and popularity can be comparable to the most popular e-sports today.

And under the money offensive of the president, the youth are also divided into three factions.

One faction is a reformist faction led by Qian Duoduo, Peng Fei, and another chess master, Mo Huang, who threaten to improve the international status of chess at home and abroad through the Internet and live broadcasts, and completely make the status of Chinese chess comparable to that of chess.

That being said, Peng Fei knew that their faction was actually just making a big excuse for themselves to play chess live to make money.

On the other hand, there is the opposition, which believes that chess players should focus on their own strengths, and their goal is to improve the status of chess at home and abroad by beating artificial intelligence.

This faction is composed of a group of "second ancestors" who were defeated by artificial intelligence at the hands of their masters, parents, family and friends.

They look down on Pengfei and the teaching of artificial intelligence, and take collecting rare chess games as their top priority, trying to use the wisdom of the ancients to defeat the artificial intelligence that is improving every day.

Peng Fei disliked the people of this faction very much, because they admired the wisdom of the ancients too much, and ignored the importance and progress of the times. The more such people rely on the strength of "others", the more they will often lead to the continuous retreat of their own "strength". In Peng Fei's eyes, the wisdom of the ancients is not necessarily the best wisdom, although there are merits, but the progress of the times, young people like them should rely on their own wisdom and strength to open up a path that belongs to them.

As for the third faction, it is the backbone faction led by chess nerds.

This faction is only focused on improving their chess skills, and they are hardly to be seen except in major tournaments.

But there are many masters in this faction, and they are by no means as indisputable as they seem.
