Chapter 147 The real battle begins
Although the promotion of Yi Gan and the three did not cause any waves in this competition, in Zhang Jian's live broadcast room, it shocked the netizens who followed all the way.

After all, this is a bridge-style game. No matter how many top amateur or even professional-level players, it is difficult to achieve results after participating in it many times. It can be called one of the most valuable competitions in Chinese eight-ball.

Especially starting from this station, the champion's prize money has been increased from 10 to 15, making it the first sub-station in China with a prize of more than 10.

Moreover, the ranking of each sub-station can accumulate points, and the players with the highest ranking in the end will have the opportunity to participate in the year-end drama-the international finals.

At that time, not only will they be able to compete with the top eight players in the country, but also the champions from other national bridge competition qualifiers.

Compete with the world champions of snooker, American nine-ball, English eight-ball and even the king-level figures.

Some games and finals can also be broadcast on CCTV5 Sports Channel, and then I can show my style on TV so that my parents, relatives and friends can see me.

To put it in a small way, it is just a matter of honor. If you can win the championship, in a big way, for a billiards player, it will really bring glory to your ancestors.

Among the three, apart from Pu Zijian who admits that he has a short professional learning experience, Yi Qian and Zhang Fei are both amateur players who have not received systematic training since childhood.

It is still a team to advance to the top 32 together, which has to make netizens very interested.

They discussed how far the three of Yi Gan could go.

Is there any chance that we can advance to another round together, or even someone can enter the finals and win the championship?
However, when the 32-to-16 matchup situation came out the next day, even the most optimistic netizens were not very optimistic about the three of them.

Most people's point of view is that the trip of the three of them may end in this round.

It's no wonder that netizens have no confidence in the three. In fact, the opponents of the three are relatively famous. There are almost no fans who often follow the eighth form.

Bu Zijian faced Liu Yong.

Although this player plays slowly, his style is not very pleasing.

However, under its solid defense, it still has a good ability to clear the table.

Liu Yong's billiard growth path is quite legendary.

From an ordinary car salesman, by chance, he met Mr. Pang Weiguo, the former head coach of the China Snooker National Team, and then joined the ball power billiard club founded by Pang Weiguo as a resident teacher.

Numerous championships at the provincial level.

In Shengjing City, where the development of Chinese eight-ball is at its peak, it was once recognized as the title of the first shot.

Of course, after Yang Fan was born and won two consecutive bridge races domineeringly, this title was handed over.

During his short stay in Chang'an City for more than a year, he won more than ten championships.

In 2015, it was the third runner-up of the bridge-type Fuqing station, and in 2017, it was the runner-up of the bridge-type Xining station.

In the minds of the fans, as far as common standards of drawing lines are concerned, they are also first-line players who do their part.

Facing such a tough opponent, Yi Qian and Zhang Fei were both worried about Bu Zijian.

However, Bu Zijian, who had just entered the field of Chinese eight-ball, knew nothing about Liu Yong's resume, so the two did not conduct science popularization.

And Zhang Fei's opponent is Xie Zhaohui.

At that stage when there were not many billiards events and Chinese eight-ball was developing, there was once a title of "metabolism" in the domestic table tennis circles.

It is the nickname for the four billiard players with distinctive style and powerful strength, and they can be called the Four Heavenly Kings.

And Xie refers to Xie Zhaohui.

For nearly 20 years in the professional arena, Xie Zhaohui has won countless championships.

And in the 2014 Linyu battle, he narrowly defeated Shi Hanqing 14 to 13, won his first bridge championship, and was crowned with honor.

Now, with the growth of age and the shift of focus, although he is no longer the favorite to win the championship as long as he participates in the competition, he still has a strong competitiveness due to his rich competition experience and deep understanding of billiards.

In recent years, he has been gradually engaged in the billiards coaching industry.

Transforming the "teaching while playing" model, combined with his own years of experience in the arena, he summed up his own set of unique teaching methods.

Yu Jinpeng, the women's runner-up in the World Championships, former nine-ball national team member and nine-ball world champion Chu Bingjie, and the eighth middle school players Shi Weida and Meng Fanyu have all received Xie Zhaohui's teaching guidance.

Today, Xie Zhaohui has become the top billiards coach in the country and is known as "Xie Tuo" in the billiards circle.

His gentle teaching style and rigorous and serious teaching attitude have received unanimous praise from people inside and outside the circle.

Faced with such a well-known coach who has seen countless times in the video, how can Zhang Fei not be under pressure and trembling?
Yi Gan didn't make any demands on Zhang Fei, just let him try his best to play to his own level.

"You have to take the career path. These former idols, heavenly kings, you will meet sooner or later. You can lose, but I hope you don't be afraid."

"If you lose this time unfortunately, I hope you can win back next time."

Yi Gan's words aroused Zhang Fei's competitive spirit. Without further ado, he opened a private room to practice tee shots with Bu Zijian.

Because he knew that in terms of billiards skills, he might not even be able to match one-tenth of Xie Zhaohui's, but if he had a steady tee shot and cleared enough tables, he still had a slight chance of winning.

The opponent Yi Gan faced actually made him a little happy.

Because as long as the opponent is defeated, the honor points representing the national championship will be credited again.

Qiu Paomou, like Lei Weimin who Bu Zijian defeated yesterday, is also from Bamin Province.

Unlike Lei Weimin who is a fledgling, Qiu Paomou is a well-known veteran who has been in the professional arena for many years.

He was born in snooker practice, and because of his good accuracy, he also created his aggressive style of attack.

Coupled with the characteristic of both left and right bows, he is also known as the Eastern Rocket and Bamin O'Sullivan.

Since moving to the Chinese eight-ball arena, he has achieved dazzling results immediately.

In 2009, he won the first stop of the 2009 National Chinese 2009-ball Ranking Tournament in Jiaozuo "Hengsheng Lifting·Joe" Cup champion, and the second stop of the 8 National Chinese [-]-Ball Ranking Tournament in Kyoto "Haoyue Xingchen·Joe" 's Cup Champion.

The championship of two consecutive sub-stations allowed him to finally lock in the first place in the annual ranking with 8227 points, becoming the eight-ball king of the 2009 National Chinese Eight-Ball Ranking Tournament.

In 2010, the runner-up of the second EEDS "Bochuang·Joe's Cup" National Chinese Eight Ball Ranking Tournament.

In 2011, the runner-up of the second stop in Kyoto "Yundu Qiao's Cup" National Chinese Eight Ball Ranking Tournament.

The two runner-ups were all lost to Wang Yan, the No.

Even so, in the three years from 2009 to 2011, he went from the north to the south, from the east to the west, and the fans will always think of his invincibility in carrying the banner of the south alone.

From being unknown to the "King of the South", Qiu Paomou is the most reckless "Crazy Sword" in the Chinese billiards arena.

Yi Qian once watched Chinese eight-ball games, and he also knew this player from the high-definition videos that appeared in the era of Wang Yan and Qiu Paomou.

Once the southern football king performed brilliantly in games, and the interesting stories about playing against each other across the country were also the topics for Yi Qian and his golf friends to talk about when they were drunk and bragging at the barbecue booth.

Unexpectedly, Yi Qian is now standing on the court, facing the king-level figure who was once considered one of the enlightenment of billiards, he still has a lot of emotion in his heart.

But thinking about everything in his body, he still said to Qiu Paomou silently in his heart, "Although you are very strong, I'm sorry, I want to win!"
