Chapter 127 The first stage of the competition begins

When Yi Gan arrived at Fengyun Bridge, the opening ceremony was almost over.

The opening ceremony is nothing more than a fixed process such as the leader's speech and the leader's opening.

After Yi Gan found Zhang Fei and Bu Zijian, he quietly waited for the lottery.

There are 384 people registered for this competition, but there are top 32 seed players in the bridge ranking, and the actual non-seeded players are limited to 352 people.

The registration fee is 500 yuan per person. Yi Qian had successfully registered through WeChat a few days ago when he was in Chang'an City.

After the chief referee Wang Botao announced the competition system and rules, the lottery began.

"Wang Yang."

"Xia Hongyan"

……

Wang Botao called out the names of the players one by one.

Yi Qian was very moved when he heard these two names.

Wang Yang is the first shot in Kyoto, while Xia Hongyan and Lu Xin are recognized as the two strongest players in Linyu.

Even these two professional-level strong players have not entered the top 32 bridge rankings, and they still have to play the first stage of the game.

People can't help but sigh, this kind of competition is really a cloud of masters, a gathering of talents.

"Easy to dry."

Soon Yi Qian's name was called, he stepped forward and drew No. 42, registered and walked down.

Zhang Fei and Bu Zijian also drew their own numbers respectively.

Although I really don't know who my opponent is, but the distribution of the numbers of the three people is relatively large, which means that at least the three people are not drawn together.

After the lottery was drawn, Zhang Fei and Bu Zijian wanted to see the lottery situation of other well-known players, and were dragged by Yi Gan to the private room.

"You are now professional golfers signed by the team, not amateurs before, and you still have the mentality of chasing stars."

"Aren't you guys so good that you don't need to practice?"

Yi Gan gave a rare and severe reprimand, which made both of them bow their heads in shame.

As the No. [-] brand in the middle eight competitions, the bridge table is unified and standardized, and the rules of the competition system are also unified.

One of the biggest features different from other competitions is that the ball does not use a triangle frame, but the ball paper is used throughout the game.

The shape of the ball laid out by the paper is relatively fixed, so it is very beneficial to players who have a good tee shot.

This is also after the lottery was drawn, Yi Gan immediately pulled the two out and opened a private room, just to give them some training.

"Tonight, our task is to study the kickoff!"

Yi Gan decisively gave the two tasks.

In fact, it also includes himself. After all, apart from the final of the competition in Xiongguan City, the boss used the ball paper once in order to catch up with the trend.

Needless to say, snooker does not use this thing in other competitions.

The middle eight game of Sanhe is also a triangle frame throughout, with the ball placed by the waiter or the player himself.

Speaking of it, Yiqian also needs a lot of practice.

However, after Yi Qian used props to score goals many times, the system corrected his kick-off skills and movements.

His off-the-ball skills are pretty good.

However, there are many players who have studied the kick-off on paper.

If the three of them are only average or average in terms of driving skills, it will be difficult to go further in this game.

Yi Qian took out the brand-new ball swing paper bought in the sporting goods section of the ball room, and began to study with the two of them.

"For a small punch, our shot speed must be moderate in order to control the ideal landing point of the ball."

"If you make a strong charge, the main thing is that the point must be accurate and the white ball must be controlled well, otherwise it will give the opponent a great situation."

In order to improve efficiency, Yi Qian is going to use his status and skills to quickly let the two achieve good results.

After withdrawing all the 26 not reflected in the system, the total points came to 30.

Yi Qian directly bought a three-hour analogy effect, and prepared for the three of them to study it carefully.

As for the skill of enlightenment, it takes [-] points an hour after the inspection, and Yi Gan also used it on the two for an hour each.

After spending a total of 8 points, the efficiency of the three-person practice has increased by an unknown number of times.

Under the effect of an hour of enlightenment, Yi Gan instilled his experience of scoring countless shots off the tee, including the experience of practicing against Ma Chenyang in the dream, to the two of them one by one.

Zhang Fei and Bu Zijian felt that their receptivity was too strong today, and they could immediately understand what Yi Gan said.

Yi Qian demonstrated and explained countless tee shots, as if he had tried it himself.

An hour later, both of them felt that their understanding of kick-off was infinitely higher than before.

Only then did Bu Zijian know why Yi Qian was able to clear the table with six consecutive tee shots.

Zhang Fei also remembered the reason why Yi Qian had a high kick-off percentage along the way.

After the two people's level of understanding of kick-offs reached an almost easy-to-dry level, in the next two hours, all three of them were in a state of understanding by analogy.

The three made tireless attempts and discussions on various details of the kick-off.

Even in order to maintain the uniformity of the tee shot, Yi Gan also bought a Metz PB2 punch for Bu Zijian.

All holding the same punch, the three practiced the same driving technique.

In order to ensure that the feel and state of the ball affect the kick-off effect during the game, the three of them also studied two sets of plans for backup.

I practiced until almost 12 o'clock in the evening. After the analogy effect used by Yiqian expired, I finally did a test.

The three of them can achieve ten kick-offs on average, and can basically reach 9 or even 10 goals.

Moreover, there will be two or three shots that will have similar ball shapes.

Yi Qian felt that the effect of tonight's practice had been achieved.

After achieving the effect, the three quickly returned to the hotel to rest. After all, the next day's game will start at 8 o'clock in the morning.

Woke up at 7:20 in the morning, washed up and went downstairs to eat breakfast. At 7:50, the four of them arrived at the ball room on time.

The ball room is full of players wearing various vests, and some enthusiastic spectators have also arrived in the ball room, starting to watch the game live, supporting their favorite players,

"Oops, why did I forget about the vest."

Yi Gan patted his head and regretted.

Fortunately, the ball room is thoughtful and provides a large number of vests that can be borrowed by players for competitions.

It's just that the fit of the borrowed vest is much worse, and it's still a bit awkward to wear it easily.

This awkward vest almost affected Yi Qian's tee shot.

After the push ball got the first right to kick off, Yi Gan tried a strong shot first, but his body was not smooth. Although the ball was pocketed, the position of the white ball was very unsatisfactory.

Fortunately, after Yi Qian defended a shot, the opponent did not have a good chance to attack.

Slowly probing, Yi Gan seized a chance to clear the table.

From then on, Yi Gan switched to Xiaoli to rush the ball and gradually took control of the situation.

The opponent's strength is indeed relatively average. According to the system's rating, it is at most a top amateur level.

最终对手在只利用开球清台赢下一局后，限时80分钟抢7的比赛，被易乾3炸3接，7比1强势大胜。

Yi Qian entered the winning department, while his opponent fell into the losing department.

The first stage of the competition was a double-elimination round of 352 to 176.

All players are divided into 44 groups, each group has 8 players, 2 players qualify for the winning team, and 2 players qualify for the losing team. A total of 176 players qualify for the second stage.

In other words, Yi Qian only needs to win another game to advance to the next stage.

As for the player who lost to him, he needs to win two more games in a row to advance.

But if you lose one more game, you will bid farewell to this competition.

Although it is only the first stage, whether it is an amateur player who has worked hard from all over the country or a professional player who travels around to participate in competitions all year round, the opportunities are equal.

Any negligence may lead to early exit!
