I really don’t want to play Go!

Chapter 279 The Back Wave Has Risen
After the fifth game ended, the sixth game started the next day. In this game, Dong He, 9th dan from the United States, would face Master Kong Zi.

Compared to Ma Dong, Dong He is much less famous, and his recent performance does not seem to be very good. It can even be said that he has the worst recent performance among the ten American chess players.

Kong Zi's performance in yesterday's game was amazing. Yu Shao originally thought that Kong Zi would be able to win the game easily, but the result was beyond Yu Shao's expectations.

Originally Kong Zi had the advantage, but Dong He broke out in desperation and finally turned the tide. In the middle game, he defeated Kong Zi and forced him to resign, successfully winning back a game.

Although Yu Shao was a little surprised about this, he didn't find it too strange.

In Go, the strong are not necessarily the winners. Even the strongest players may be knocked down by an unexpected storm. Maybe Kong Zi is indeed better than Dong He, but if he encounters Dong He's amazing outburst, there will be nothing he can do.

Then another day passed, and in the seventh game, Dong He lost to Chu Jingfeng, 9th dan, again.

In this second game of chess, both sides fought back and forth. Even if they played one game a day, judging by the speed, it would probably take quite a long time.

After the seventh game, the national players' competition is finally about to begin.

Early that morning, Yu Shao arrived at the chess academy and walked into the chess room where the national championship was held.

"The game played by Chu Jingfeng 9th Dan yesterday was so exciting. In the middle game, he was able to defeat the lone player at god-level, and finally gathered his strength to slay the dragon, beating Dong He 9th Dan!"

"I don't know if Chu Jingfeng can win today. Unfortunately, I have to compete today. I can only look at the chess records later."

"He will definitely win. I feel like Chu Jingfeng is in great shape this year and is eyeing the title of Master. After watching yesterday's game, Master Kong Zi must be under a lot of pressure as well."

"Yes, Chu Jingfeng, ninth dan, this year——"

In the chess room, everyone was gathered together discussing yesterday's chess dispute, but the moment Yu Shao walked into the chess room, the discussions suddenly stopped.

Everyone looked at Yu Shao at the same time, watching him walk into the chess room and come to table number eight, with complicated expressions on their faces.

Winning ten games in a chess match was truly too exaggerated, unprecedented in history, and shocked the world.

Although it has been a while since the end of the first game, as the second game began and everyone watched this tense battle, their impression of the first game became even more profound.

Although only young chess players participated in the first game, none of them were ordinary players. There were also talented players such as Zeng Jun, Ma Jie and Lu Yihong.

But even so, all ten people were defeated by Yu Shao!
Yu Shao walked to table number eight, pulled out a chair and sat down, waiting for his opponent today to arrive.

He hasn't been to the game room for a long time. All the previous games were held in the game room. Now he has finally returned to the game room.

Yu Shao waited for a while, and then a thin man in his thirties or nearly forty years old came to the opposite side of Yu Shao.

Yu Shao raised his head and looked across, knowing that this was his opponent today, Zhao Shuyu, who was a seventh-dan rank.

Zhao Shuyu looked at the boy in front of him who was twenty years younger than him with complicated eyes, but in the end he didn't say much. He pulled out a chair and sat down.

Seeing the two of them sitting down, everyone in the game room withdrew their gazes, but for a moment no one was in the mood to talk about the game of chess anymore. They all felt the pressure.

Not long after, the two referees finally came to the game room. After waiting for a moment, they cleared their throats, explained the rules, and announced the start of the game.

After guessing the order, Yu Shao played black and Zhao Shuyu played white in this game.

Yu Shao was the first to bow his head and saluted, saying, "Please give me your guidance."

"Please give me more advice."

Zhao Shuyu also returned the gift immediately.

The chess game has begun.

Yu Shao looked at the chessboard, thought about it, and quickly picked up the chess piece and made the first move.

Hey!
Seventeen columns and three rows, three by three.

"This... Three-Three Occupies the Corner?"

Zhao Shuyu found it a little unbelievable when he saw the black piece located in the upper right corner of the chessboard.

This is not three-three, but three-three occupying a corner.

"Judging from his chess records, doesn't he have a very good sense of the overall situation?" Zhao Shuyu was a little stunned.

Generally speaking, occupying a corner is either a star or a small point, and even high points and points outside the point are occasionally used by chess players, but occupying a corner with three threes is very rare.

The reason is very simple. When occupying a corner, one must take into account both external forces and real territory. For example, stars and small eyes can both gain real territory and form external forces through subsequent development.

Gaomu and Muwai do not occupy much real estate, but because the pieces are placed in high positions, they can also form "momentum"!
Three-three corner occupation, this method of occupying a corner is indeed unmatched by any other tricks, but it has almost no possibility of forming "trend", and is only concerned with immediate interests!

After a moment, Zhao Shuyu calmed himself down, reached into the chess box, picked up the chess piece and put it down.

Four columns and sixteen rows, stars!
Yu Shao did not think much about this move. When he saw the white piece fall, he almost immediately picked up the chess piece and dropped it gently.

Seventeen columns and sixteen rows, small mesh.

Da da da……

The two sides kept placing their chess pieces alternately, and time kept passing by with the sound of the pieces being dropped.

……

……

At the same time, on the other side, in the reporter's office.

Ding Huan was staring intently at the computer screen, watching the live broadcast of the eighth chess match.

At this moment, the white piece fell again on the computer screen. "Huh?!"

Seeing this move, Ding Huan's eyes widened. He never expected that the white piece would be placed in this position: "Chu Jingfeng, 9th Dan, put it here?!"

Ding Huan stared at the computer screen, and after thinking about this move, his face suddenly turned red, and he couldn't help but slap his thigh hard!

"Strong hands! How bold!"

"The white piece jumped into the black piece's clutches. If the black piece directly removes the white piece, the situation on the board will become extremely complicated. Not only will the two white pieces above be able to escape, but there is even a possibility of a fight!"

"If you don't mention it, then the white piece will raise the black piece instead, and this corner may also be taken over by the white piece!"

Ding Huan waited for a moment, but the black piece didn't fall down yet. He immediately realized that facing the white piece's treacherous pounce, the black piece was also in trouble!

Seeing the powerful move of the white piece that forced the black piece into a long period of thinking, Ding Huan took two deep breaths, but still couldn't suppress his inner excitement.

"It looks like this move will take a long time to think about. Let's go out and get some fresh air and smoke a cigarette."

After Ding Huan made up his mind, he picked up the cigarette box on the computer desk, stood up from the chair, turned around and left the reporter's office.

Soon, Ding Huan stood on the corridor outside the reporter's office, took out a lighter and lit a cigarette. After taking a deep breath, he slowly exhaled, and the corridor was suddenly filled with smoke.

“It’s really a fight between dragons and tigers.”

Ding Huan was smoking a cigarette while looking at the blue sky, his heart filled with emotion.

"Although I have been a reporter for so many years, watched so many games, and written so many Go reports."

"But every time I see a chess player placing a piece on the board, I still feel so shocked."

Not long after, when Ding Huan finished smoking a cigarette and was about to return to the office, a figure walking out of the chess room caught his attention.

He was a thin man in his forties. Ding Huan quickly recognized the man's identity.

Zhao Shuyu 7th dan.

Ding Huan was just about to say hello, but when he saw the gloomy expression on Zhao Shuyu's face, he tactfully shut his mouth.

"Teacher Zhao Shuyu lost? Who is Teacher Zhao Shuyu's opponent today?"

Ding Huan was a little puzzled.

At this moment, Zhao Shuyu slowly turned his head and glanced at the chess room behind him, with an extremely complicated expression on his face.

Finally, he silently withdrew his gaze, turned around and left without saying a word.

Seeing the extremely complicated expression on Zhao Shuyu's face, Ding Huan was stunned for a moment.

Although he graduated from the Chinese Department and had written countless articles over the years, it was difficult for him to find the right adjective to describe the complicated expression on Zhao Shuyu's face even if he racked his brains.

The deep reluctance was mixed with disbelief, but no matter how much I disbelieved it, the fact was like this, so I could only accept the ruthless and heavy blow of reality...

Ding Huan looked into the chess room through the window and saw Yu Shao put away the chess pieces and slowly stood up.

Seeing this scene, Ding Huan originally wanted to go back to the office directly to continue watching the eighth game of chess, but now he suddenly changed his mind and walked quickly to another game room.

Not long after, Ding Huan came to the outside of another game room and looked towards the game room through the window.

In this game room, the preliminaries for the Grand Chess Master title competition were taking place.

Soon, Ding Huan found Su Yiming in the game room.

At table number 12 in the chess room, Su Yiming was looking at the chessboard quietly with a focused expression, but opposite Su Yiming, there was no one.

Seeing this scene, Ding Huan frowned slightly, feeling somewhat puzzled. As soon as he withdrew his gaze from the game room, he saw a young man in his twenties smoking dully not far away in the corridor.

"Hong Hanwen Sixth Stage..."

As a chess reporter of the Southern Chess Academy, Ding Huan quickly recognized the identity of the young man, but did not go up to say hello.

After a moment, under Ding Huan's gaze, Hong Hanwen finally put out the cigarette butt in the trash can, then turned around silently, walked into the chess room, and finally sat opposite Su Yiming.

However, after sitting opposite Su Yiming, Hong Hanwen did not reach into the chess box to take out the chess piece. After sitting quietly for a while, he finally slowly lowered his head towards Su Yiming.

Hong Hanwen has surrendered.

"One after another, high-level chess players bowed before them."

Seeing this scene, Ding Huan took a deep breath, finally turned around and left, walking towards his office.

“Although it’s hard to believe, it’s true. The next wave is coming!”

"Even though they are still young, I'm afraid that only the top chess players can compete with them. They are going to start their efforts towards the title match!"

Ding Huan felt a little upset for a while.

"What kind of chess game will they play for the world next?"
