MTL - Go Legend-Chapter 838 Two invitations that cannot be declined

   Chapter 838 Two invitations that cannot be refused

This Celebrity Challenge is played every other day, so after losing the first game, on the second day off, Li Xiangping almost completely shut himself in the room, and studied the game carefully with the plug-in for three generations. The dog's defeat.

   The outside world doesn't care about this, and they all think it's normal.

   After all, Li Xiangping lost the first game.

   The last time he lost in a split game was nearly 20 months ago.

   After losing so long, Li Xiangping suddenly locked himself in the room, and everyone felt that it was not difficult to understand.

   Of course, Li Xiangping couldn't lock himself up all the time. By the time it was nearly 7 o'clock in the evening, his stomach was already growling with hunger, so he could only temporarily stop his research.

   "Little friend Xiangping, what's new?"

Li Xiangping smiled bitterly: "How can it be so easy to gain, today we want to find fake dog tricks for three generations of dogs, if we can find one in a day, then the matter is too simple, we have all the 19 chess records in a month, Then just wait for the dog to be born.”

Yes, today is December 22, 2008, after Li Xiangping crossed over. On this day, he and the plug-in Lao Shi started a new training plan, trying to find "fake dog tricks" from three generations of dogs. .

   To be more specific, Li Xiangping believes that since three generations of dogs will also lose chess, and its way of thinking is actually a way of finding where to go with a "global coverage type of rope".

   Then at least in the games he lost, there must be a problem of imperfect selection.

   There may be only one or several such imperfect selection points, but there will be at least one, and it is impossible for all selection points to be perfect.

   This kind of imperfect selection can of course be called a "fake dog move".

   So today, Li Xiangping randomly picked a chess record in which the third-generation dog lost to the second-generation dog, in an attempt to find out the "fake dog move" in this chess record.

  It is a pity that he was not able to find him today.

The reason for not finding it is of course easy to understand, as Dean Hua once famously said: Even if a professional chess player plays bad chess, there must be his own reason, and the reason is not easily understood by most amateur chess players. .

Li Xiangping believes that this sentence can be completely transplanted to dogs: even if dogs really make fake dog moves, it is not something that most professional chess players can understand quickly, and it is not that human chess players can easily find them. .

   What's more, today is trying to find fake dog tricks for three generations of dogs, so even if his old Shi joined forces, and then the two of them did a day's worthless work, of course, this is very normal.

   Take today's research as an example. The two took out a chess record of three generations of dogs losing chess, knowing that there must be at least one fake dog move in it. Then the two moved forward step by step from the beginning, always feeling that whether it is the second generation dog or the third generation dog, every move of their chess has its own reason, and almost every step contains deep meaning...

  Since this is the case, it is of course difficult to distinguish what is a fake dog move or a real dog move.

   It's just that Li Xiangping is not discouraged. After all, he has long been prepared for this and knows that fake dog tricks are not so easy to catch.

   If you can't push forward today, then you will consider pushing backwards, or thinking about approximation from both ends. Li Xiangping believes that as long as his understanding of Go continues to improve, he will be able to crack the 19 chess scores one day.

   "Okay, Ding'an brother, let's put the research aside for a while. There is still a game tomorrow. It will be embarrassing to lose again."

   Lao Shi said with a smile: "Haha, it's very, you need to know that you little brother is the first person to publicly express his willingness to accept 2 sons. This will let him steal another plate. It really doesn't look good in face."

  Well, although they know the importance of the second game, the two of them are still talking about martial arts this time, and they didn't show the combination of swords in the second game—

   It's not about martial arts. It's really not that thick-skinned. This is a competition first. If you have to use a unique trick, then Li Xiangping feels that he has really come back to life.

   Therefore, in the second game, Li Xiangping still played alone.

  The first game is Chen Xiaoqiang playing black, then in this game it will be Li Xiangping's turn to play black.

   Actually, when Li Xiangping took the sunspot, he really had a little bit of a trance at that time—

   The last time I picked up Kuroko seems to have been a long way off.

   But fortunately, the trance at the beginning did not affect his performance.

   At around 5:10 pm, although Chen Xiaoqiang persisted to the end, but with 223 hands in the overall situation, Li Xiangping won the game with a 4.5-point advantage.

  1 to 1, the first two games were tied.

   At the same time, the game on the Korean side also ended, Kong Erjie also won the game and he and Zhang Xu also fought 1-1.

   But when Li Xiangping rested again, there was no rest in Korea—

  The rules for Koreans to hold competitions are basically the same: as long as the first two games are 1-1, the final game will be played continuously after the second game.

   So on this rest day, Li Xiangping did not study dog ​​tricks, but followed the Korean game with Chen Xiaoqiang, old reporter Xie Zhang Da and others.

  The "Samsung Cup" is a two-hour game for each side, so the process is still relatively fast. After 3:00 pm, Li Xiangping stopped playing chess with Chen Xiaoqiang—

  Because both of them knew that the overall situation was set, the Chinese team would soon produce a new Go world champion.

   "Haha Xiaoqiang, it seems that your plan to grab the class and seize power has failed again. As soon as your little brother wins the world championship, you will be embarrassed to rob someone else's main general."

   Amid the ridicule of everyone, at around 3:20 p.m., the South Korean game officially ended. China's Kong Erjie defeated Zhang Xu and became the 4th professional Go world champion in China after Ma Xiaofei, Li Xiangping, and Gu Dali.

   At the same time, because Kong Erjie won the championship, this of course occupied the headlines of the major media on the next day, at least the Go section.

   made the paparazzi in the third game of the celebrity battle even lower.

   In this ultra-low attention, Li Xiangping went to the next game and practiced a 2-1 lead.

   It’s just that after 3 innings, the game will be suspended for a few days—

   This is all Li Xiangping's fault. Everyone thinks that he can win 3-0, so until the end of the 2nd game, the date of the 4th game has not been negotiated.

  On the day of the 3rd game, the national team leader Hua and Zhang Wendong hurried to Yongcheng, and the notice said that the next two games would return to the capital.

   Of course Li Xiangping has no problem with this. After all, it is now the end of the year, many things have come to the conclusion, and Li Xiangping still has an exam, of course he is more willing to bring it back to the capital.

   On the second day after returning to the capital, Li Xiangping got a news; the results of this year's "Top Ten National Athletes" selection have come out, and Li Xiangping's name is not on the list.

  Li Xiangping also has this mental preparation. After all, this year is the Olympic year, and the Chinese team has won so many gold medals in the Beijing Olympics.

  The Olympic champion is not enough points, how can a non-Olympic sportsman who has announced semi-retirement be selected.

But it is also very interesting. Although Li Xiangping was not selected as the "Top Ten", among the top ten sports news in China selected by Xinhua News Agency, today's special ten is on the list, and the ranking is quite high. This news is crowded Made the top 5.

   Not only that, because Li Xiangping has a very good relationship with the imperial court, he is simply the son of CCTV.

Therefore, although he was not selected for the "Top Ten", in the "Sports News" that night, after the broadcast of the "Top Ten" list, the announcer also specifically mentioned Li Xiangping: because the Chinese Legion was in the Olympic Games The outstanding performance led to the famous Go player Li Xiangping, who was selected as the "Top Ten" for five consecutive years, and was not selected this year. It is a pity Balabala...

  Li Xiangping smiled at this, and didn't take it too seriously. After all, it was the end of the year. In addition to preparing for the game against Chen Xiaoqiang, he also had to prepare for the school's final exam.

Not only that, but in fact, in the next two months, it is time for all walks of life to summarize, so there are many activities such as various "grand ceremonies" and various "nights", and Li Xiangping received nearly 10 invitation.

  Li Xiangping pushed most of the invitations, but he still couldn't push two.

   The first one was CCTV's "Sports Festival". On the 3rd day after Li Xiangping returned to the capital, that is, the 2nd day after CCTV announced the "Top Ten" list, he soon received a call from CCTV.

This call was made to him by Senior Brother Bei Sa Beining. It was a bit semi-public and semi-private. Senior Brother Sa told him on the phone that although he was not selected for the top ten, the court platform still hoped that Li Xiangping would attend the grand ceremony. He was an award presenter.

   As for who to give the award to, Senior Brother Sa didn't say it on the phone, Li Xiangping guessed that even CCTV had not decided yet—

   After all, it is still too early for the grand ceremony. What if any big man wants to show his face on a whim? The presenters will definitely have to adjust.

   Of course, Li Xiangping could not refuse such an invitation. After all, he was not an old Nie, and he could not even be a bird in the imperial court, so he accepted it at the time.

   While he promised, he said in his heart that I am the age of Lao Nie, so I should be qualified to not be a bird of CCTV, right?

   Of course, when Li Xiangping really reaches that age, this book will be over long ago.

   The second invitation that is not easy to refuse is mainly because the inviter is special.

   It was the 4th day after Li Xiangping returned to the capital. Li Xiangping went to the school to see how the school's final exams were arranged this year.

   It was by the Weiming Lake when he heard someone calling him from far away: "Li Xiangping, wait a minute..."

  Li Xiangping looked back, he was a little surprised at the time, the visitor was a visiting professor of the Department of Philosophy of Peking University, Lao Deng, the founder of the top club in Beijing, the China Association.

Although Li Xiangping was a bit strange, he still greeted him politely. Although Ren Lao Deng didn't give Li Xiangping a pass, he helped Li Xiangping. Last time Li Xiangping and Zhao Jiadong were on his site. Visiting the aunt of the Zhao family.

   "Mr. Deng, what's the matter with you?"

   Tsk tsk, Seventh Uncle persisted for 8 days.
