259. Curse

Shi Mingzhi Jiudan and Park Zhenghuan's chess played quickly, and the life and death of Dalong in the middle game had already determined the outcome of the whole game.

After Park Jung-hwan's central dragon died violently, the chess game ended early.

Shi Mingzhi won in the middle of the ninth section.

Lu Li Jiudan also opened a champagne in the live broadcast room, saying that he was congratulated on becoming the first in the rating.

I don't care about how long it lasts, I only care about what I once had.

Even if the domestic rating ranking is updated once a month, the first place in this month's update will not be his name.

But I was also the first to be the first.

Good news: the crown prince has ascended the throne.

Bad news: Taisun has entered the Xuanwu Gate.

After Shi Mingzhi's nine-stage game was over, he had been standing behind Ying Jie and watching them finish the game.

Cui Ze's strength and toughness are terrifying, this way of laying the floor, Shi Mingzhi Jiuduan feels that he may not be able to maintain this advantage to the end in the end.

But Ying Jie will do it.

MD, what are you doing so well? It's not okay to wave at all.

Before, Shi Mingzhi Jiuduan still felt that Ying Jie was sometimes too prodigal.

Now it feels like it's time to wave a little.

Otherwise, there is no chance at all for such stability, and it is too uncomfortable.

After finishing the last official, Cui Ze has already calculated all the meshes, if he loses four and a half meshes according to the rules of Japan and South Korea, and the Ying rule is still 8 points, he loses more.

Winning or losing is seen as a form of luck in Go.

But losing several times is not a matter of luck, it is a fundamental gap in strength.

There is still an insurmountable gap between himself and Ying Jie.

The coach of the Korean team once lamented that if Choi Ze faced Shi Mingzhi Jiudan, maybe he would have a chance to enter the final.

You know, the semi-finals and the finals of the World Series are two completely different concepts.

But for Cui Ze, even if he didn't make it to the World Series finals, he had no regrets.

can't defeat Ying Jie to win the championship, and the runner-up has no meaning for Cui Ze.

Champions don't matter.

The important thing is to win Yingjie.

"Thank you."

"No thanks."

After determining the results of the game, Cui Ze did not review and left directly.

For him, there's a second game the day after tomorrow and it's the key.

If you win, it's time for the third tiebreaker.

If he loses, the semi-final trilogy will end directly early, and Ying Jie will directly enter the World Series finals.

So the second game was a game he couldn't afford to lose.

And Ying Jie, who won the first battle, was naturally in a good mood.

However, from today's showdown, Cui Ze has been biting Ying Jie to the death, and although the AI's win rate after opening the stunt is very good, it actually doesn't have much significance to humans.

In today's situation, if Ying Jie makes a mistake, it is the difference between heaven and hell.

In the next game, Ying Jie felt that he had to be more careful.

"Good, good."

After Park Jung-hwan left, Mr. Ying, who was the organizer, came over with a smile at this time.

"Ying Lao."

Looking at the gold lord who came over, Ying Jie and Shi Mingzhi Jiuduan both greeted each other cordially.

Ying's Group's contribution to the development of modern Chinese Go can be said to be indelible.

It not only funded China's first world competition, the Ying's Cup.

It also competed for Chinese chess players to better and faster adapt to the rules of the Yingshi Cup, and also funded the National Go Competition in China.

There are a few other cup competitions that go without saying.

The Champion Chess Cup adopts the same schedule and rules as the Ying Cup to help Chinese players prepare in advance.

It's a pity that Ying Jie was late last year and couldn't participate.

But this year, Ying Jie's participation in this Ying Cup is a wild card.

Whether it is the love of Go or the sense of national honor, China's Baodao Yingshi Group can afford the gratitude of all chess players.

Ying Lao looked at the two Chinese chess players and nodded continuously: "I won today, okay." ”

Although the Ying Group finances the Go competition, which is known as the Olympics in the Go world, the Ying Cup is not very good from the results.

Originally, it was a competition that wanted to put China in the first place in the world.

The first four championship trophies were all won by South Korea.

It was only in the fifth session that the Chinese won their first Yingshi Cup championship.

But in the sixth edition, he was immediately won by the Koreans.

In the seventh edition of this year, two Chinese chess players in the semi-finals took the lead at the same time.

This time it is really possible to see two Chinese enter the world finals of the Ying Cup at the same time.

This has never happened before, and the previous Ying Cup has never advanced to the final at the same time as a player from another country.

If the Chinese chess players can win the championship and runner-up in advance this time, the old man Ying feels that he can go to his father's spirit to comfort him again.

You don't see it, but Chinese Go is really rising.

"Ying Jie, we should be regarded as our own family, you are very good, and others are not as good as you.

Shi Mingzhi, you are also very good, keep up the good work, you were able to win Park Jung-hwan in the last final, and you can do the same in the semi-finals this time.

Come on, I hope you can win the championship and runner-up in this competition. ”

Old Man Ying didn't say much, just encouraged the two Chinese chess players and left.

Seeing the old man Ying who left, Ying Jie touched his chin: "It seems that there is indeed no national chess player entering the finals of the Ying Cup at the same time." ”

It's like the World Series has a curse.

Whether it is this world or the Ying's Cup in the previous life, no country has ever won the championship and runner-up in the final, and then every time a Korean enters the final.

Even when the cupping king was the most popular, he fell to the quarterfinals for two consecutive years.

Hearing this, Shi Mingzhi Jiuduan couldn't help but muttered in his heart: "Curses are all deceptives.

Anyway, Park Jung-hwan is not in good shape, and I should be able to end the game 2:0 early. ”

Although he said so, Shi Mingzhi Jiuduan's heart couldn't help but be filled with metaphysical care.

Probably not, right?

I won the first game.

"By the way, I almost forgot to congratulate you on becoming the number one in China's rating."

Hearing which pot to open and which pot to mention Ying Jie, Shi Mingzhi Jiuduan immediately forgot about the curse, and slapped Ying Jie directly on the back of the head.

"Treat me like a green, huh?"

Three-minute champion.

No, I might be a little better, I just remembered it, 42 minutes 05 seconds.

Ying Jie touched the back of his head where he was beaten, and said with some surprise: "You still play Pokémon?" ”

Shi Mingzhi Jiuduan immediately became angry when he heard this: "My 89-year-old, strictly speaking, is still a post-90s generation!" What age do you think I am? ”

The first version of Pokémon was released in 1996.

I was only seven years old at the time.

Although five or six years of Go is considered a generation, do you really think of yourself as an uncle?

You treat me like an uncle, and you don't even want to call me old.
