Yue Qishi feels that not every chess player's career goal should be fixed as a chess master.

He also thinks that a first-level or even second-level chess player is actually a good career goal.

After all, in his long career as a chess player, he has seen countless ordinary professional chess players with a strong personal style.

Although most of them are fixed in a certain rank for a long time because of their chess strength or personality, their lives are still very exciting.

There are four matches in today's game, two in the morning and two in the afternoon.

Yue Qishi's opponent in the second game was a middle-aged man about his age. Although this middle-aged man is not a professional chess player, he is definitely a seasoned amateur master.

He chose the first shot with the highest winning percentage at the beginning, and then laid out the layout around the chess pieces of both sides.

Although this middle-aged man is not an ordinary amateur chess player, at least from the beginning to the middle game, his intention is very clear, that is, he wants to take advantage of the advantage of the first move and take the lead in the middle game to play the strategy of "encirclement and reinforcement" in the middle game.

Judging from his layout ideas alone, this amateur master should have a lot of game experience, and after Yue Qishi put out the "iron cloth shirt", he still insisted on attacking with the ideas he had determined before.

However, the big gap in chess strength is difficult to make up for with strategy.

After a difficult 20-hand race, Yue caught a small mistake by the amateur and won all the games of the morning.

Overall, Yue Qishi's luck was not bad, at least he didn't meet a professional master of the same level.

On the other hand, he knew, many professional chess players who participated in this competition, many lost in the morning, and the worst luck was a second-level chess player, he met Peng Fei in the morning, and after playing more than a dozen hands, he reluctantly gave up admitting defeat.

And this second-level chess player who admits defeat is surnamed Jin, and he and Yue Qishi can be regarded as friends, both of them are elderly people, and they actually have a relatively light view of winning or losing.

But losing to a small chess player who is so much younger than himself, Jin Qishi naturally felt a little uncomfortable.

There were quite a few chess players of the same level who had lunch together, most of them were middle-aged chess players in their forties, and they also learned about Jin Qishi's loss to Peng Fei during the meal.

They did not gloat, but most people could not help but have a feeling called the sadness of the rabbit and the fox.

In recent years, older professional chess players like them have become less and less popular with this society.

One of the reasons for this is that their rank and chess strength limit their development.

But more often than not, it's because they've become "worthless".

Since the commercialization of chess, elderly chess players like them have gradually lost their value, and in the past, because of their stable chess strength and a certain popularity, the association would arrange for them to play national-level competitions.

Nowadays, both chess associations and many commercial enterprises prefer to use younger players to participate in the competition.

In their eyes, young chess players have more commercial potential and more commercial value than their old guys.

Originally, low-level professional chess players like them relied on competitions to earn money most of their income.

However, in recent years, fewer and fewer people are willing to invite them to compete, which has also made their lives more and more difficult.

They also tried live broadcasting, and even tried to teach in the chess club, but they gradually discovered that they had long been derailed from this era.

In the past, the live broadcast of chess was about who had the highest chess ability and who had more routines, but now the live broadcast is a competition of eloquence and a variety of scripts.

And going to teach in a chess club is not about your chess experience, but more about your understanding of artificial intelligence chess players.

They have turned yellow leaves at some point, and although they have a unique and beautiful appearance, they can hardly compete with this cold winter.

Yue Qishi silently looked at his old friends around him, and his heart couldn't help but ripple.

Although he doesn't care much about winning or losing, age brings so many things that he doesn't know if he can accept the fact that he will lose to young people.

This meal was a little depressing, but in the same way, this meal also made this group of elderly middle-aged men unconsciously have an indescribable momentum.

In the first game of the afternoon, Yue Qishi was also lucky to meet an amateur chess player, he did not keep his hand, and the game ended quickly.

After he finished this game, he also noticed Yu Haiqing, this young man seemed to be very concerned about his game, a total of three games, he was watching.

He also seems to be studying very seriously, learning his "iron cloth shirt" and his own layout ideas.

Yu Haiqing also slowly found that Yue Qishi was looking at himself, and he suddenly felt a little helpless for some reason.

Seeing the child's helpless appearance, Yue Qishi retracted his gaze very gracefully, preparing for the next game.

It seems that Yue Qishi's good luck has just run out, and his next opponent in the next game is Peng Fei.

For this rising star, Yue Qishi also has an understanding, he is the queen of the famous family, and he is also the signature of the younger generation of current chess masters.

Although he fell into a low period some time ago, losing to several veteran chess grandmasters in a row.

But his comprehensive strength is still the top existence in the Chinese chess world.

In addition, it has recently been rumored in the chess world that Pengfei is being trained in the most scientific and most advanced foreign artificial intelligence system, and his chess strength has not increased by a little compared with before.

Of course, the truth of this rumor cannot be determined, but Pengfei is indeed in good shape now compared to before.

He sat across from him, giving all the onlookers the feeling of a sharp spear.

This also reminds many people of a text about spears and shields that they learned when they were children, although this is a bit ridiculous, but Peng Fei's eyes, as well as his sitting posture, all reveal that he is very eager to fight with Yue Qishi.

Although Yue Qishi was also aware of the murderous aura looming on Peng Fei's body, he was obviously also a veteran chess player who had fought a hundred battles.

Facing such great pressure from the opposite side, the expression on Yue Qishi's face was very indifferent.

With this indifferent expression alone, Peng Fei unconsciously slowly put away his murderous aura, he had also heard the story of Yue Qishi, as a veteran chess player who was most likely to rise to the rank of chess master in recent years, Yue Qishi's basic skills are one of the few existences in the chess world that can be called an iron wall.

Not only that, Peng Fei also heard that the distance between Yue Qishi and the chess master was only a change in mentality.

He was very worried, worried that this game would become a stepping stone for Yue Qishi to break through himself.
