11 The absurdity of the human world
At the end of the year and in recent years, the Chess Association is also surprisingly busy.
This year's commercial chess is undoubtedly a success, not only the salary of professional chess players has been improved, but many chess practitioners engaged in chess-related professions have also ushered in their own spring.
It seems that as the country attaches more and more importance to traditional culture, business competitions have sprung up all over the country.
With the blessing of huge bonuses, professional chess players and practitioners who were previously known as unprofessional chess players have gradually broken the world's gaze and become a high-paying profession that many people envy.
However, compared with commercial competitions with rich bonuses and fixed events, the most anticipated thing a year ago was the "friendly match" between Qian Changsheng and the Internet celebrity coaching staff two days later.
In the past few days, there has been no stop of public opinion on the Internet about this game.
It can be said that most of the Chinese people are emotional and kind, they believe in miracles and support miracles, especially under the "fueling" of the Internet celebrities, people look at the half of the prodigal sons in the chess team who turned back, and gradually sighed a little more in their eyes.
They lament the injustice of the world, their tragic experiences, and their difficulties, and they seem to forget that their opponents are also like them, they are all half-grown children who have experienced the warmth and coldness of the world.
There is always a lack of inspirational dramas in this world, even if it is a ridiculous inspirational drama full of loopholes, it can make many ordinary people feel something.
It can be said that the Internet celebrity coaching staff is worthy of being an Internet celebrity coaching staff, they know how to render and market, but in reality, it can't tolerate half of the illusion.
Strength is always the only criterion for testing facts.
Two days later, the game was broadcast live on the Internet, and there were not only professional hosts and staff to test the fairness of the game, but also various signal jammers, which also made the game eliminate any possibility of cheating.
The live broadcast of this tournament is on Xiangqi Tiantian, a chess software that was overwhelmed by Yang Zheng and them in the commercial war years ago, and the loss of personnel is serious.
It came back to life with this game.
Looking at the daily chess that has exceeded 2 million downloads in the past three days, the rich second generation is also ruthless, and uses all the money in his company to market and hold offline competitions, and in just a few days, he has become a big winner.
In this regard, many insiders did not feel surprised.
Aside from the fact that his father is the current chess president, the rich second generation seems to be lucky.
When Yang Zheng and his team frantically threw money to seize the broadcast rights market for mainstream chess tournaments, the desperate rich second generation also chose to focus on the secondary events and the games of disabled chess players that not many people watched.
He was just trying to use it as a springboard to quickly occupy the second-tier events of other sports.
But this time it was such a coincidence, he could be said to be confused, or he could be said to have inexplicably picked up a "splashing wealth".
Sometimes luck is so wonderful, some people are lucky enough to be inexplicable on the Internet, and they can earn the banknotes that others have worked hard for a lifetime in a few days. There are also people who work hard and have a small amount of savings all their lives, but in the end, because of bad luck, they or their family members have a serious illness and end up with nothing.
It seems that a person's fate is more affected by that illusory luck in addition to his own efforts.
But people will win the day, luck can determine a person's upper limit, and hard work can also improve the bottom line of a person's destiny.
Dao someone also downloaded the chess every day, and he was also looking forward to the game in two days.
Although in his heart, he already vaguely knew the outcome of the game, he still hoped for a miracle.
The Spring Festival is approaching, and the chess club where someone is located has also taken a holiday in advance.
Someone who was idle at home had nothing to do, thought about it all night, and finally bought a train ticket to Pengcheng.
He took the high-speed train for more than ten hours to come to the city that had abandoned him.
He also made up his mind to go to the chess training base where he used to work, and he sat in a nearby coffee shop for a whole day.
Perhaps because of the upcoming game, the whole training base seemed to be a little more tense, and the dim lights were lit up at five o'clock in the evening, and he didn't see the person he wanted to see until the coffee shop closed at twelve o'clock in the evening.
He wanted to see his students, even those he didn't contact after he left.
And the reason why he wants to meet his students is actually very simple, that is, he plans to give his students special training on the last day.
Although he knows that his current chess strength is not as good as Qian Changsheng, he also understands that he was born at the grassroots level, and he cannot have two or three so-called killer moves like those professional chess players with a heritage.
But he was still confident that he could improve the chess skills of his former students before the game, but he had been studying Qian Changsheng's students' chess playing styles on the train, and he had vaguely found loopholes in their layout.
But he never had the courage to contact his students by phone, and this "cowardice" made him miserable and helpless.
"Sit down a little longer."
It was the owner of the coffee shop who spoke, and this owner was barely an acquaintance of someone Tao.
When he was still in office, he would also visit the coffee shop once a month at the end of the month, and although he didn't like coffee or the many desserts in it, his students loved it.
And the day he paid his salary was also the day when the students were the most obedient, because they knew that as long as they behaved well, someone would definitely take them all to eat sweets that they couldn't normally eat.
But things are people, and when he left his job, he didn't know if the previous "tradition" had been preserved...
Probably not!
Dao someone watched in a trance as the shopkeeper silently took out the sweets he usually bought for his students, and the sourness in his heart came directly to his throat.
"Alas!"
With a sigh, someone did not refuse the kindness of the shopkeeper, but talked about the recent situation like a friend.
The short chat let someone know that the shopkeeper was actually the same age as him, and also knew that the shopkeeper was actually a chess enthusiast, but he entered the pit late and only played chess for two years.
Although he has only played for two years, his vision is very vicious, and his temperament is also very straight, he even directly said to someone that he is not optimistic about his former students, because as long as anyone who knows chess, they can see that the path they take is completely artificial intelligence.
Not only that, but he also viciously pointed out that in the upcoming friendly match, the game between students is estimated to be a draw, and Qian Changsheng's game with the Internet celebrity coaching staff should be crushed.
I have to say that the shopkeeper's angle of analysis of the problem is very strange, and he simply pointed out the loopholes in the cooperation between the Xiangqi Association and Tiantian Chess.
And the loophole is, if the scene is full of electronic shields, how can they broadcast it live?
