Chapter 95 Network and Reality

I won, it was pretty easy... No, this game was still a bit difficult.

At noon on June 6, Dajing City.

On TYG, the largest Go platform in South Korea, Lei Qi, nicknamed [QQSH], stretched slightly after finishing another game of Go.

In the previous game, he and his opponent had played very fiercely, and the game was basically won by half a point in the endgame. In the end, he won with black.

However... this is based on South Korean rules, and Black has a handicap of 6.5 points.

If the Chinese rules had been used to give black a handicap of seven and a half points, he would have already lost the game.

However, Lei Qi would not dwell on the long-standing debate on "how many points should black chess pieces be given?"
For chess players, now that they are at the battlefront, they just have to follow the rules.

If you still insist after the game that "I would have won if I had used XX rules", then you are embarrassing yourself.

He had fought three consecutive games with his opponent named [meowpara] online in the past two days, and relied on the half-point victory in the last game to win by 2 to 1.

Since the retreat, the record on the TYG platform has been updated to 21 wins and 8 losses, with a winning rate of over %.

With the victory of this game, the total prize money of the "South Korea Online Chess Cup" he won reached 260 million South Korean won, which is about the same as the domestic...

Less than fifteen thousand.

Well, before the emergence of the Zimbabwean dollar, the South Korean won was indeed a typical example used to mock things that seemed to be more but were actually less!

Lei Qi sighed secretly, but didn't worry too much about it.

Originally, the main purpose of setting a prize for each game was to ensure that the top professional chess players in South Korea whom he challenged did not play too casually, just to achieve the training effect. It really didn't matter whether there was money or not.

After all, having a lot of money doesn’t mean you can improve your chess skills.

...

The status...is adjusted quite well.

After finishing this game, Lei Qi commented secretly.

Over the past month, apart from fighting with AI, he has basically been playing Go with top professional players on South Korea's TYG Go platform.

Although he only achieved a record of 5 wins and 5 losses at the beginning, he gradually got rid of external influences and immersed himself completely in his own world, and his winning rate improved significantly.

In the last 16 games, he has 3 wins and losses, with a winning rate of nearly %, which is undoubtedly the top level.

If they could achieve this winning rate in professional competitions in the near future, they would undoubtedly be the biggest favorite to win any competition.

This ability, which allowed him to gradually and completely immerse himself in the world of Go and thereby bring his performance to the peak of his current level, was the greatest skill he had learned from Shang Chaotian, apart from the on-board skills.

It's a kind of "flow".

When Shang Chaotian had not yet retired, although he was very good at maintaining his own condition, he was able to keep the title of "Chess Saint" at the age of nearly 40, and even had the upper hand in the final "battle of changing dynasties" with Lin Ruixin. This was also due to his concentration in the last period of his career when he almost gave up all competitions and focused on defending the title of "Chess Saint".

The reason why Shang Chaotian asked Lei Qi to prepare for the chess saint competition early this time was that he hoped he could get back into shape soon after visiting his family. This was especially true of the recent "seclusion" of changing to an old-fashioned mobile phone.

Well, although there were some twists and turns in the middle.

In the room, Lei Qi stretched lazily, his thoughts wandered for a moment, and then he quickly brought them back.

Just when he was about to use AI to review the game, he saw [meowpara] suddenly chatting on the public screen in the game room.

【meowpara】:Who are you?
Lei Qi was stunned when he saw it.

Although he has not received any systematic English education since he learned chess, he still has some basic knowledge of the simplest English words and conversations.

After all, it is well known that children in Dongjiang must master at least a thousand English words before the age of five so as not to suffer setbacks in primary school in the future.

Asking in English...Does this mean you have guessed that I might be Chinese?

Lei Qi frowned slightly, but soon figured it out.

After all, he had already played against many masters on the TYG platform using the small account [QQSH] and still maintained such a high winning rate. The South Korean Go community would understand after a quick investigation that this master, whose identity was unknown, was most likely not a South Korean.

It can even be said that if South Koreans pay a little attention to the current situation in the Chinese Go community and know that Lin the Internet celebrity has a lot of live broadcast time, they can basically lock themselves in...

Well, after all, the Internet is also rooted in reality!
Well, if I am willing to investigate based on various clues, then the previous [There is a phoenix...

"Snapped"

Suddenly a crisp sound was heard in the room, and Lei Qi's right cheek turned red.

hiss--

The state that has been adjusted with great difficulty cannot be messed up again!

Lei Qi, who had received a slap in the face, calmed himself down and prepared to start reviewing the situation again...

...

[Daji Dali]: Brother Tian, ​​I'm already on the bus and will arrive in Dongjiang at 5:30 in the evening.

[Yong Chao Nan Tian]: Well, thank you for your hard work! I have so many things on hand that I can't spare any time.

[Daji Dali]: It’s okay, Brother Tian. It will take some time for the league to start anyway, and I’m not too busy recently.

[Yong Chao Nan Tian]: It is still hard work after all!

[Yong Chao Nan Tian]: I have two things to tell you: First, no matter whether Rui Zhao wins or loses this time, you should encourage her well. Also, please express my gratitude to Rui Guo Quan.

[Yong Chao Nan Tian]: Also, if he has some thoughts about the result that Rui Zhao was assigned to Xiao Bai in the first round and thinks that we should do something about it, please also say sorry on my behalf and say that it was indeed our negligence. Don't tell the truth!
【永朝南天】: Second, it is Xiaobai

[永朝南天]: If he wins the championship, persuade him again. And if he loses, comfort him!

Lu Wenjie looked at them one by one, his expression normal.

But when he saw the last line of the message, he couldn't help but narrow his eyes. But after a few seconds of silence, he still agreed.

[Daji Dali]: Yeah, okay.

After replying to the message, Lu Wenjie stretched his shoulders, leaned back in the back seat, and closed his eyes to rest.

There is no need to say much about his main purpose of going to Dongjiang this time: to represent the Chess Association to attend the final competition of the "Metropolis Cup" Dongjiang Division starting tomorrow.

As the largest amateur Go tournament in China, the "Metropolitan Cup" is held in four regions: Bay Area, Xidu, Dajing, and Dongjiang. After the rankings are determined in each region, the champion and runner-up will also participate in the national finals held in Dajing in mid-July. The whole process lasts five months from the beginning of spring to mid-summer.

For such a large-scale mass event, the Chinese Chess Association has given the highest level of support: when the main competition of each competition area starts, leaders above the vice chairman level must be present and present awards. And this year, the chairman of the Chess Association, Shang Chaotian, personally attended the competition in Dajing.

However, for Lu Wenjie, the main mission this time is not the most important one.

After all, giving a speech or making a statement is not that difficult.

What we really need to pay attention to are the various "branches"...

Moreover, it is not just the "branch line" explained by Shang Chaotian.

Thinking of this, Lu Wenjie couldn't help but take out his mobile phone and started watching the video of a B station UP host he had just followed two days ago - [Go Xiaozhao].

That was the day Lei Jingming and his wife discovered this account, otherwise he would only know that Rui Zhao was on TV, but he didn't know that he was also doing live broadcasts.

[Go Xiaozhao] has uploaded no more than ten videos so far, and most of them are vlogs edited from live broadcasts, which look quite random.

However, [Go Xiaozhao] now has more than 20,000 fans, and almost every video of his has 30,000 to 40,000 views.

This is very valuable for an anchor and UP host who has only started live streaming for more than half a month.

Moreover, what is more important is that the vast majority of people who watch [Go Xiaozhao]'s videos have little contact with or even no knowledge of Go - this is very similar to Lin Ruixin, the only popular anchor in the Go circle, and even worse than that.

This made Lu Wenjie very concerned.

In such an information-based Internet age, how to stand out is actually an extremely important topic in the Go industry today. It can even be said to be a matter of life and death.

Although Lin Ruixin successfully did it once, Lu Wenjie did not fully agree with this approach.

It was Rui Zhao's live broadcast that gave Lu Wenjie a new idea - although this path might be difficult to replicate.

Oh, we old-timers are really something.

It’s fine that winning the game of chess depends on a little girl, but it turns out that promotion also depends on a little girl?

Lu Wenjie couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh and shook his head repeatedly. But he didn't expect a familiar voice to suddenly come to his ears:

"Vice Chairman Lu, what happened?"

Ok?
Lu Wenjie quickly turned sideways and looked up, only to see a face full of unruly and coolness in front of him - who else could it be but Lin Ruixin?
"Rui Xin?! Where are you going?"

"Oh, you're asking that?"

Lin Ruixin smiled and replied:

"Let's go to Dongjiang and settle accounts with one of my haters!"
