"You're wearing clothes like that? Where's your suit? ”

Looking at Ying Jie, who was wearing a sweatshirt, the vice chairman of the chess association next to him couldn't help but say, today is also a press conference on man-machine wars, such an important occasion, why don't you dress more formally?

I didn't wear a suit in the game two days ago, why did I wear a sweatshirt at today's press conference?

Deliberately finding fault, right?

Ying Jie helplessly spread his hands and complained when he heard this: "I saw that this star-rated hotel has a laundry service, so I asked him to take the suit to wash, the temperature of the air conditioner is so high, I have sweat on my body for several days in a row."

Originally, I thought it was dry cleaning this morning, but who knew that the hotel told me that it was not dry in the morning, and the ghost knew that the dry cleaning would also be dry, so I bought a suit in total, and I couldn't help it. ”

Ying Jie originally bought a set of high-end suits in order to support the scene, after all, there are some occasions that have mandatory requirements to wear formal clothes, and you will not be allowed to enter if you don't wear formal clothes.

So no matter what the occasion, Ying Jie is wearing this all-purpose suit, but most of the time it is to participate in the opening ceremony and press conference to wear these things, as long as the organizer does not have a clear requirement during the official competition, Ying Jie is wearing daily clothes to participate in the competition, after all, it is really troublesome to tie the belt.

Although Ying Jie often becomes the most conspicuous one in the crowd, even the organizers themselves don't care too much, when people reach a certain level of status, no matter what they do, everyone is more tolerant of him, and even takes his maverick behavior for granted.

Genius, this is called personality! You're looking for nothing!

Ying Jie is like this now, no matter what the game, he will always be the top, the most attractive to the media, the most attractive to the audience, valuable, and will always be tolerated.

"You said it earlier, if you said it earlier, it really won't work, let's find a way to borrow one for you in the bridal shop next to us, and it's too late to support the scene."

The head coach of the day said speechlessly, the general hotel will basically contract all kinds of wedding banquets, saying that the division of labor is clear, but normal people are eager to make all the money in the upstream and downstream of an industry, and it is too normal to have various services such as wedding dresses next to the hotel, and it is not difficult to borrow a suit a little time in advance, at most it will cost a little money.

But now that it's all started right away, it's obviously not realistic to borrow clothes again, let alone have to change clothes back and forth.

Everyone is dressed in straight suits, and one in a sweatshirt is mixed in the suit, and there is a cartoon pattern......

It can only be said that the painting style is strange, but if it's Ying Jie, it's fine.

"It doesn't matter, we're not the audience, haven't we all discussed it, the content has been planned in advance, just come up and say a few words when the time comes."

Ying Jie couldn't help but yawn, when the meeting was held yesterday, Tengda had already introduced all the plans to Ying Jie, including other staff of the Chinese Chess Association, and carried out internal consultations and adjustments.

To put it simply, Ying Jie already knows all the itinerary, and this morning he is going to listen to a bunch of nonsense that he already knows, and then answer a few questions, which is the meaning of getting up at seven o'clock in the morning.

Pain, what could be more painful than getting up early!

"Alright, let's get ready to go on stage first."

Coach Day glanced at the time on his watch, patted Ying Jie's shoulder, and motioned for everyone to sit down together.

The name tag of the press conference had already been put away when the venue was set up before, and Ying Jie and they only needed to sit down according to the position of the name.

The people who can sit on the stage are basically Tengda and the leaders of the Go Association, plus Ying Jie and the members of the Beta Dog R&D team, and there are a few professional players in the audience, who were invited to explain the chess game before, and of course there are some local chess players in Hangzhou, but the number is very small, and more of them are news media.

After everyone sat down, after taking a look at the time and the expected time point, the host began to say: "Thank you very much for coming to the World Go Artificial Intelligence Championship Final Press Conference, this press conference we will introduce in detail the rules of the World Go Artificial Intelligence Championship Finals Man-Machine War, and the follow-up schedule, this competition will last for nearly a year, it will be a hearty Go feast, which will inevitably be engraved in the history of Go as a classic."

Next, please invite Mr. Pei, the chairman of Tengda, to introduce the detailed rules to you, please applaud and welcome. ”

Hearing this, the media on the stage also gave a sparse applause.

Mr. Pei glanced at the manuscript in his hand and put it down directly, and pulled the speaker in front of him: "Hmph, ten chess."

Juban chess can be said to be a deep feeling in the hearts of our countless Go lovers, he has performed too many classics in history, ten games of blood and tears, ten games of Danghu, and until the modern Japanese Go competition Shiban downgrading, it can be said that he has left too many traces in history, and also represents countless feelings.

However, there has not been a juban in the chess world for about 60 years since the last juban in Japan, which is a pity for Go, and it is also a sad thing for chess fans, including me, who does not want to see juban again.

The last man-machine war said that it was Shiban chess, but in fact, there was a little suspicion of selling dog meat on the head of a sheep, which was Ying Jie and South Korea's Gao Yongxia Jiuduan against Alpha Dog in five games, and made up ten chess, but in fact, to put it bluntly, it was just two five-game chess, not a real ten-game chess.

I think that whether it is for myself, but for the expectations of countless chess fans, or for the sake of this historic moment in the field of Go by humans and artificial intelligence, it is necessary for Jubanqi to appear again! Only ten games can hold up the weight of this game!

So in this final, for the first time in 60 years, we used the Juban chess method! Reopen this ten-way chess tournament format!

The man-machine battle in the final adopts the Chinese Go rules, with 3 and 3/4 black stickers, and the time is 4 hours for each side, 5 times 1 minute count, and the plate is not closed at noon. The competition system is a ten-game system, and the first to win six games is the final winner, and the game is over. The total prize fund of the competition is 50 million yuan before tax, the winner will win all, and the loser will be 2 million yuan; If both teams are tied 5-5, the prize money will be split evenly.

There are a total of ten rounds of this competition, starting from January next year, one game per month, which will be carried out in ten different cities, and the determined itinerary will be ten duels for 10 cities such as the capital, Pinghu, Modu, Chengdu, Wuhan, Shangri-La, LS, Chongqing, Hong Kong and Wuhu.

As long as someone wins six games in advance, the game is over, but I still hope that both sides can play a full ten games and finally decide!

The first race will start on January 26th next year, so stay tuned! ”

Hearing this, the media in the audience took pens and wrote them down directly.

Man-machine war, ten reappearances, peak showdown!

Isn't this more interesting than any World Series?! There's finally a piece of news in the Go world!

"Okay, thank you very much Mr. Pei for helping us introduce the process and rules of this competition, and I would like to invite questions from media friends."

"Hello, I would like to ask Ying Jie Shiduan, has the format of this competition been specially discussed with the organizers? Because I saw that the last game of man-machine battle was a continuous game, this time it was a game of chess every month.

Is it because it is physically demanding compared to the AI competition, or is it because of the consideration of the organizers to extend the time and influence of this competition? ”

Ying Jie slapped the microphone a little when he heard this, and said after there was indeed no problem: "This time there is indeed a discussion in advance, because the retention time of both sides of the game is four hours, at least eight hours to start the game, this kind of time duel is indeed a relatively large consumption for us human chess players."

If it's 10 games in a row, even if it's a month, I guess my form will be greatly affected, and it will be difficult to show any strength in the future, so the extension of time is more beneficial for us.

Because I can't run it directly by consuming power like artificial intelligence, so it's also for the sake of fairness, I also told Mr. Pei before that if I can power the beta dog according to my heat, it's fair.

Mr. Pei said no, the kind of heat I consume is converted into electricity for artificial intelligence, and I can't turn it on, so I can't get down, at most, I will convert the electricity bill into a bonus for me, and let me see what sea cucumbers and the like to make up for it, but I feel that sea cucumbers are not very good, a little too soft, haha. ”

"Then may I ask Ying Jie Shiduan, how to arrange this competition? Is there anything you need to prepare for in advance? I've heard that you have rarely participated in the internal discussions and other training sessions of the Chinese Weiqi Association in the past two years. ”

"Next year's focus will definitely be on man-machine battles, and there is indeed less training with other friends, because I also focus more on training with artificial intelligence, using some artificial intelligence for training, and I hope it can also help better play in the later games.

Although there is only one set in a month, every set is important, and the outcome of each game is related to the final result, so you must prepare well, and in all respects, no matter which World Series is definitely not as important as this one.

Therefore, from tomorrow onwards, I will stop other competitions and concentrate all my energy on the finals of this man-machine competition, until the end of this competition, I will see the situation and resume the competition, hoping to get a good result with sufficient preparation, and I hope to continue some of my previous achievements.

Although the previous honors are useless, the past has passed, and the hard power of artificial intelligence may be a little stronger than me, but netizens have already said that I am an AI killing machine, so I'll see if I can keep this title. ”

After Ying Jie finished speaking, he put down the microphone, but the next media question was still Ying Jie, and Ying Jie could only sigh helplessly and then took the microphone again.

Why do you like to catch me with a wool pick, can't you change someone?

"Yes, all competitions will be suspended, including the World Series, next year is estimated to be in addition to the continuation of the previous title match, I have to defend, according to the rules of the competition, these matches may have to participate in a while, but it is estimated that these matches can be coordinated until October next year, I am not too worried about the impact.

The honor of the World Series is very important, but I still feel that I have a lot of world champions, and the number of world champions I am not equal to the second place, and it seems that few people can get this number.

So it doesn't matter if you put it for the time being, it's true that my body doesn't support participating in too many high-intensity competitions at the same time, otherwise I wouldn't have watched people take bonuses, and watching them take bonuses is more uncomfortable than me losing money!

But it's still the same as the original saying to grasp the big and let go of the small, so next year's World Series will definitely give up, and it is estimated that everyone will be more looking forward to who can win the championship in such a World Series, and next year it is estimated that there will be a hundred flowers blooming without me, and everyone's strength is still relatively close, and anyone can win the championship.

I was exempted from the team competition, but I guess I may not participate this time, after all, I didn't play last year, and everyone else has already been killed, and it makes no difference if I don't have me, even if I don't have it, I can win the championship.

That's how the itinerary is arranged for the time being, let's talk about the rest. ”

Hearing this, the media in the audience hated not bringing two cameras, what kind of explosive news is this?

Even if you modify the title slightly, you can change it to Ying Jie's announcement of an indefinite suspension!

Astound! Ying Jie quits the Go world!

Thriller! Ying Jie has not won a crown for a year!

Ying Jie is not participating in the World Series directly? You must know that the World Series is the highest honor of Go, and the championship trophy coveted by countless people.

For some strong players who don't win the World Championship, you ask him to exchange all the national championships for a World Championship, and he is willing.

But because of the existence of Ying Jie, no chess player can get involved in the world championship in recent years, and even before each World Championship, there are a bunch of comments and ridicule for the organizer to directly give the championship prize money to Ying Jie, why do you go through this process?

But once Ying Jie's absolute dominance is gone, everyone feels like they can do it.

I'm not targeting anyone, I'm saying that all of you are happy

At the current frequency, there are about four or five or six opportunities a year.

This World Champion! I'm determined to win!

After all, Ying Jie also said that he would not participate next year, maybe he would make a comeback later, if he couldn't grasp this window period, Ying Jie's peak period would pass, and at the same time, the peak period of bringing other chess players would be gone, and what world championship would he talk about.

Even Xiao Xiao, who was sitting in the audience, couldn't help but clench his fists, maybe this is the only chance in his life! Not to be missed!

Win the World Championship next year!
