Go: Is the portable old man the nine-time champion?

Chapter 66 God's Digging

"The Secretary-General's presence here to present the awards is truly a great honor for us."

"Of course I should. Isn't this my job? Everyone knows that I'm the most dedicated person in the entire Chinese Go Association!"

"Secretary-General Zhou became Secretary-General before he turned 30 this year. He is truly a man of great potential at such a young age."

"Of course, everyone knows that I, Zhou Songxing, have achieved what I have today entirely through my own hard work. This has nothing to do with my brother-in-law being the second-in-command of the General Administration!"

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

Because he was afraid that staying at the scene all the time would affect Yi Zheng, Mr. Ke quietly walked through the wall to the chess viewing room next door. As soon as he arrived, he saw a scene that seemed a bit nonsensical.

A young man wearing sunglasses and holding a cigar in his mouth sat in the middle, and many people surrounded him and complimented him.

"Today's match was a fierce battle! But looking at the piece in the lower right corner, it seems like Black is almost defeated. Hasn't the corner been completely captured by White?"

Zhou Songxing looked at the chess record transmitted in real time, touched his chin and couldn't help but say something.

Hearing Zhou Songxing's claim of not understanding Go at all, the people accompanying him couldn't help but awkwardly explain, "This is one of the classic moves in Yaodao Qianbian. Although White has captured the corner, Black has moved to both sides, so it's a two-point move."

Zhou Songxing nodded when he heard this, and then said as a matter of course: "I see! As everyone knows, I'm an administrator, so it's normal that I don't know much about Go!"

Listening to the interpretations of several so-called professionals, Mr. Ke couldn't help but shook his head: "Your perspective is like this, but in fact, this series of fixed moves is indeed prone to losses.

Both sides made mistakes in and out, and in the end Yi Zheng lost a slight chance of winning, estimated at about five to ten points. People may have underestimated the value of the white chess in the lower right corner, and overestimated the severity of the black chess in the upper left corner.

Now we have to wait and see when this Cheddar will break down."

Even a professional ninth-dan player cannot be without mistakes, let alone an amateur king.

"The important thing is to see if Yi Zheng can catch him!"

Move 44, White, jump!

Seeing Cheda choosing to defend the corner, Yi Zheng keenly sensed an opportunity.

Cheda did not choose to directly lift up and fill the lower right corner. Yi Zheng quickly grew out underneath to prevent the back from being eaten up by Cheda.

However, Cheda didn't seem to feel that there was anything wrong with his move, and began to compete with Yi Zheng for the large fields in several other places.

Move 56, White, support!

After making this move, Che Da looked up at Yi Zheng who was sitting opposite him, and a smile unconsciously appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Che Da couldn't help but deduce the subsequent changes: As long as Yi Zheng follows suit, I will immediately retreat and he will make another move, and I can directly break out from the upper left corner!
This way, three of the four corners are mine! Absolute advantage on the ground!

Catch first and then wash!

But it is not so easy for Yi Zheng to surround the outside now.

I've never seen such a wonderful start!

Cheda felt that he was not far from winning the game. Now he knew that he was not a special person!
When seeing Che Da being dragged up, Yi Zheng keenly noticed Che Da's greed. In Go, greed is sometimes not a bad thing, but the prerequisite is that you have the ability to be greedy!
Move 57, Black, stab!

Seeing this move, Mr. Ke in the chess viewing room couldn't help but applaud: "Good! A very clever move! The right timing, the best move!"
If the opponent sticks to it honestly, with this exchange of thorns and stickiness, he won't be able to get out later!

But it's similar to my style! How come Yi Zheng has become like me without me noticing? "

Mr. Ke couldn't help but pull his antenna. The tricks he used to mess with Yi Zheng were unknowingly learned by Yi Zheng and he started to mess with other people.

What a sin.

When Cheda saw this move, he didn't expect that there would be such a clever move to try.

Che Da couldn't help but rub his forehead and thought to himself, "My original idea is definitely not going to work. I need to try another method!
No, we can't simply retreat, otherwise the black pieces will spread out on the upper wings.

Don’t panic! This is a technical adjustment! Don’t be afraid! "

Although Cheda felt uneasy looking at the shape in the upper left corner, he couldn't help but make a full-on move. No way, he had to take a gamble and go for it!

You'll know why I'm nicknamed Devil Muscle Man! It's because my strength is beyond your imagination!
Move 58, White, top!

Che Da was ready to use brute force to injure Yi Zheng's chess pieces on the periphery, but Yi Zheng was not willing to be outdone and rushed forward directly!
Move 63, Black chess, consecutive wins!
Seeing this move, Bai Hua, Chairman of the Huangshan Go Association, couldn't help but remark, "What a frequent display of irrational moves! Contestant Yi Zheng has been making all sorts of irrational moves from the very beginning, and even in the middle game."

Think about it, although Mr. Ma’s chess moves were tricky back then, his openings were still very positive. Have young people nowadays also started like this?
While irrational moves can sometimes be effective, they are fundamentally wrong. As long as the opponent can see through the trap, they will ultimately be trapped. "The proper way to play Go is to play the right moves!"

Hearing the discussion among you in the lab, Mr. Ke laughed out loud: "What a difference in perspective! Yi Zheng has already reached a level that you cannot even see!
It seems like an unreasonable move, but in fact it is a hidden murderous intention!"

As Cheda looked at Yi Zheng who was blocking him tightly, his heart rate unknowingly reached over 100.

If you back down at this time, you will be completely trapped in a corner. If you choose another method, there will still be a breakpoint, and Yi Zheng has reached both sides.

But the problem is that the above two moves are used when it is not advantageous for you to capture pieces.

Che Da couldn't help but glance at Yi Zheng across from him. Didn't this kid realize that Yi Zhengzi was in my favor?
Zhengzi, also known as Zheng, Zhengchi, Jiaoyangtou, and Niuyangtou, is one of the basic moves in Go. It is a way of capturing the opponent's piece by twisting and turning it repeatedly while the opponent's piece is still alive.

It is both the most fundamental skill for beginners and a key element in the intrigues among experts. The validity of most local patterns and the ability to launch a strong counterattack all depend on the consideration of the conquest piece.

A Go anchor once used conquest pieces and verbal taunts to directly break the defenses of his fans and forced them to run away.

"Shouldn't it be unclear?"

Che Da calculated again and confirmed that his piece was indeed advantageous, so he directly chose to attack it.

When Cheda came back to stick, Yi Zheng actually chose to eat it directly.

Not only Cheda, but also several people in the laboratory could not help but look at each other in confusion.

Some people even placed the chess pieces on the chessboard out of disbelief.

"This...this isn't right? Did this young man Yi Zheng misjudge Zhengzi? What kind of stupid mistake is this?"

"This might go down as the lowest-level game in the National Amateur Championship finals! Ending the game with such a low-level mistake is, in a way, a legacy."

Several people in the lab couldn't help but laugh. The chess records of such national amateur competitions would sometimes be published in Go magazines. It was not a glorious thing for the players themselves to be published in such an embarrassing way.

Even if he becomes a famous chess player in the future, this will become one of his black histories.

Che Da was also confused when he looked at Yi Zheng who was running the zhengzi with him. No matter how professional Yi Zheng was, how could he make such a low-level mistake of miscalculating the zhengzi?

Even Yi Zheng's decisiveness made Che Da doubt whether he had calculated it wrong and he recalculated it several times.

But after repeated confirmation, Cheda seemed to be sure that Yi Zheng had indeed made a mistake.

Is it because you were prepared to miss the target that you made this super low-level mistake?

What a clown, Haji!

Seeing that Cheda was about to win the game, he couldn't help but hum.

Meanwhile, Mr. Ke had drifted back into the game room at some point, staring at the chessboard. "The final move! This game is over. A long-term plan, a decisive move!"

And Yi Zheng also lost a move he had been planning for a long time.

Move 73, Black, dig!

Seeing this step, Mr. Ke couldn't help but add a voice.

"A decisive blow! No solution!"
