06 Big Brother

Zhang He was definitely the most talented chess player a young man had ever seen.

Although he was born in the market, and although he has not received professional chess training since he was a child, compared to his own junior brother, Zhang He's computing power is not strong.

But his chess is full of unique charm because his computing power is not strong.

If you really want to describe the charm of chess, it can only be summed up in six words: "dancer on the tip of the knife".

Zhang He is a dancer who walks on the tip of a knife, and he also knows that his computing power is extremely poor, so every move he makes is free to play.

He never thinks ahead, nor does he give himself and his opponent a way out, his every move is an indomitable killer move, if this kind of chess route is placed on ordinary people, it is definitely a self-defeating way.

But on Zhang He, it seems to be a "desperate place to survive". People who are not familiar with him, the first time they see him in this stunned way of playing, most of them will be surprised that his chess is too rough and there is no discipline.

But after fighting Zhang He, those who were surprised slowly became speechless again.

Because Zhang He's style of play is actually thick and fine, every dancer who can walk on the tip of the knife understands how sharp the tip of the knife is better than ordinary people.

Thick and fine, and seeking stability in progress, this is the real "Central Plains Knife".

Of course, this impression of talent also slowly began to change after Zhang He stepped into the professional chess world.

There are too many chess players in the younger generation, and there are many amazing ones, whether it is Peng Fei, Little Alien, or Li Tiandao, they are all opponents that Zhang He has not met before.

It has been more than a month since Zhang He became a professional chess player, and in this month's time, Zhongyuan Yidao's record is 5 wins and 17 losses, which also makes the gap between professional and non-professional chess players a topic that many people talk about.

And Yang Zheng, strictly speaking, he is also an amateur chess player, although he did not play against Zhang He, but most chess players in the capital believe that Zhang He's chess strength is far inferior to Yang Zheng.

Young people used to think that this was a joke, and they also thought that the capital's chess players could not erase their self-esteem and forcibly found an excuse for themselves to fail.

Although he has also seen videos of Yang Zheng's two victories over the chess robot, young people will always question something.

He only felt that Yang Zheng had long colluded with the big companies behind the chess robot to forcibly shape the gods.

Otherwise, how could he be absent from a big tournament where he could become a professional chess player? He must have been exposed by the righteous later, otherwise how could he suddenly disappear from the chess world?

At this time, the frustrated look on his little junior brother's face also made his emotions and deep-rooted views change slightly.

With his junior brother leaving the court, Yang Zheng's next round of competition is about to begin.

Yang Zheng's opponent in the next round is a middle-aged man in his forties.

This middle-aged man looks like a social big brother in Hong Kong and Taiwan dramas in the eighties and nineties just in terms of dress.

The big gold chain and small watch, the black suit and the white shirt that can never be buttoned at the top are a bit bluffing.

This middle-aged big brother is also a popular figure in the local area. He lost his father at a young age, lost his mother when he was a teenager, and didn't read for a few days, so he grew up his younger brothers and sisters by killing fish, and cultivated them into famous college students in big cities.

Although this middle-aged eldest brother is not highly educated, he has been in the market since he was a child, his experience is far beyond ordinary people, and his personality is more free and easy than many people.

After his younger siblings succeeded in their studies and careers, he could have followed his younger siblings to live a good life in the big city.

But the eldest brother came back after a few days, and he said that he was reluctant to give up the family heirloom fish stall, but in his heart he was also like a mirror, knowing that the younger brothers and sisters who resolutely chose to leave the small city, they and himself already had great differences in thinking, plus they had found their own lives, if he forced to continue to stay in the big city, maybe one day a fierce conflict would break out with them.

This middle-aged eldest brother, forty-five years old and unmarried, used to be poor and afraid to pursue happiness because of poverty and younger siblings at home. Now that he is alone, he suddenly feels that being alone is actually quite good.

Now he lives a very simple life, in addition to killing fish and playing chess every day, that is, watching those classic Hong Kong dramas, his life is comfortable.

This time he participated in the amateur competition, which was to pass the time, his chess play was average, but his luck was good, and he didn't meet any masters along the way. But he is also self-aware, knowing that a person's ability and strength are more important than luck.

He looked at Yang Zheng, who was a little tired, and also learned from the referee next to him that this young man met a stalker boy last time, he was very tolerant, and in the face of the little boy's challenge again, he did not refuse, which also caused him to never rest.

The middle-aged big brother listened to the referee's words, he smiled, and then he made a decision that everyone thought was incredible, and that was that he gave up the game.

Yang Zheng listened to this decision, he looked at the eldest brother he had never met, and he had a lot of thoughts in his heart.

However, the eldest brother waved his hand when he looked at him, ordered him like a real big brother, asked him to rest well, and warned him to play chess in moderation and not to blindly "covet".

When the eldest brother said these truths, his smile was very simple, so simple that Yang Zheng felt that if he rashly rejected the kindness of the eldest brother, then he would definitely be sorry for the eldest brother.

Seeing that Yang Zheng lowered his head and accepted his kindness, the eldest brother was satisfied, and walked out of the venue shaking his head.

Perhaps for the eldest brother, chess is also a hobby in his heart.

But again, he is also interested in this interest, otherwise he would not have been playing chess for more than 20 years.

Of course, when the eldest brother first started playing chess, there was actually a reason.

He dropped out of school at the age of fifteen, and after his mother's funeral, he looked at the small fish stall with horror in his eyes.

Although he has been helping his mother kill fish and collect money since he was a child, now that his mother is away, how can he continue this business?

He turned to look at his younger siblings, who were only one or two years younger than him, and he gritted his teeth and decided that no matter how difficult and difficult the future was, even if he couldn't see the future, he would have to resist the burden of the family.

Therefore, the eldest brother began to devote his whole life to this small fish stall.

He is very intelligent and observant, but his young age and lack of experience make it difficult for him to get along well with stall owners and customers in the market across ages.

But he kept trying, and finally he found a way to get along with them.

That's chess.
