Yang Zheng also completely understood the huge gap between himself and many chess players on this night.

And this gap, which is like a moat, is called the gap of time.

I don't know when Yang Zheng slowly accepted the strange setting that talent is more important than hard work.

It seems that this setting has been confirmed all the time around him. From the time he went to school, a bright child would hardly need to work hard to get into the university of his dreams. And talented people seem to be able to thrive in the workplace after graduation, and entrepreneurship can be "easily" successful.

And stupid kids like them, no matter how hard they try, can only barely keep up with the last steps of smart people.

It seems that the stupid children, after discovering their mediocrity, suddenly find that words such as rotten and abandoning these words they once hated have become very affectionate again.

Since I can't keep up with others even if I work hard.

Giving up will probably make your painful life very easy.

Anyway, stupid children like them have no future interest, and with a salary of thousands of yuan a month, they can only barely survive, and in the end, they can only pin their dreams of getting ahead on the next generation.

Until he met Xiangqi, Yang Zheng seemed to find that he was not so stupid, and under the guidance of famous teachers and interests, he defeated one after another "stupid people" who had spent more than ten years or even decades learning chess.

But if you think about it, did you really defeat them?

Thinking about the people he has beaten, Li Sansi is definitely an outlier, his talent is there, but it is definitely not high, and his life has many ups and downs than himself.

But he also has a shining point that belongs to him.

That is "repeated defeat".

His hard work, his tenacity in repeated defeats, has made him so far... Never gave up chess.

Similarly, an ordinary middle-aged man like Lao Zhang, his life, his profession, and his family are also destined to make him only play his favorite chess on the street.

His chess ability is very low, his talent is basically non-existent, and he has played chess for decades, and he has not made much progress.

But with these decades of continuous dedication, he also successfully reached the second round of the Muzi Cup, and even almost became a professional chess player.

While time may not give everyone who is willing to give a perfect ending, time is also fair.

It will treat everyone who is willing to pay equally, and it will also treat everyone who loves life equally.

A drop of hard work may be able to pierce through the hard rock.

Time, never lie, Yang Zheng's biggest shortcoming is that the time he paid is too short, although he played chess at a young age, but the cumulative time of playing chess for more than 30 years is less than three years at most.

The gap between time and experience made him a little less decisive when he found loopholes.

He found more than one loophole, and in practice, he made judgments in his favor.

But he has so little experience with AI that it is impossible to win a game a week later from just a few games of chess on video.

He needed time, a lot of time to test his ideas.

But no one was willing to give him time, and he was tired from lying in bed, and suddenly he had a naïve thought, that is, seven days later, he was still facing the version of artificial intelligence he had encountered before.

In this way, he doesn't have to rack his brains to think about countermeasures.

But he soon came to his senses again, and the world was far from being as kind as he thought.
