  Chapter 376 The Most Advanced Flooring

In the first game of the "LG Cup" semi-final, Li Xiangping VS Li Canghao, when the game was almost 2:00 in the afternoon, Li Xiangping made a seemingly good move. As soon as this move was played, he gave Da Li directly "Stopping", he spent a lot of time thinking about countermeasures.

  While Da Li was taking the long exam, in the watching room next door, reporter Xie of "Sports" couldn't sit still.

He was among a group of Koreans just now, and he knew that Lao Cao Da Liu and the others had a good evaluation of Li Xiangping's chess move. However, these evaluations were all relayed to him by his Korean counterparts. It is impossible to explain in great detail, and secondly, it is also possible to paraphrase errors.

   So Lao Xie was going to come back to his own side and wanted to find a master to explain it to himself in detail.

Because to tell the truth, although Lao Cao, Da Liu and others have commented first, Lao Xie still can't understand it. Judging from his chess skills of strong 2 and weak 3, Li Xiangping's move just now, then It's a little too ordinary.

   It is clear that he is not too dangerous for a piece of chess, why does he want to add another move?

It doesn't matter if you just add supplements. If you can still have a certain number of meshes while strengthening yourself, then Lao Xie can still understand. He knows that it is called "thick practice chess with mesh number", and it is a very pleasant game. Law. However, Li Xiangping's chess move just now really had no number of points at all. It was only 1 or 2 chess moves when he died, which was basically the same as "Single Official".

   When the overall game is less than 100 hands, can you still be allowed to play the next step?

Isn't    usually a "slow move" in the conventional sense?

  Especially in today's situation, in reporter Xie's opinion, the attack and defense of the mid-bellied appearance should be the focus at the moment, right? Then Li Xiangping's hand just now looked not only slow, but even suspected of leaving the main battlefield.

  However, in his own eyes, one step away from the main battlefield, how could he still get such a high evaluation from Lao Cao Da Liu and the others?

   Are they all scared of being beaten by Li Xiangping now? So have a blind confidence in his chess?

   So Lao Xie can't figure it out, he needs to find a master to explain it to himself.

   Today, Ma Xiaofei is the only one who can be called a master in the Chinese research lineup, so after returning here, Lao Xie found him immediately.

   "Ma Xiao Ma Xiao, please help me tell me what Xiang Ping's move just now means, why can't I understand this chess."

   Ma Xiaofei smiled: "How do the Koreans comment on this hand?"

   "They have a high evaluation, especially Lao Cao. He just said that once Xiang Ping's chess move is played, Da Li's chess game may be very difficult."

   "Oh? Did Lao Cao really say that?" Ma Xiaofei expressed a little surprise and then continued:

"Then Lao Cao may be concerned and messed up. It must be a bit exaggerated to make it difficult for Da Li to play chess with one move. But then again, Xiang Ping's hand is really good. It's a bit ordinary at first glance. Think about it, but if you taste it carefully, you will find that this move is quite connotative, it is the kind of high-level chess that is really small and big.”

   As one of the most senior full-time Go reporters in China, Ma Xiaofei is of course familiar with Lao Xie and knows his chess skills, so he analyzes the move based on the opponent's chess skills:

"Reporter Xie, you also know that in Go, some tactics are called as small but big, such as some "two-way pull and stick", and some "two-way play" and so on. It's very common, and it's not great in terms of mesh count. However, at certain times, especially when it is about the rise and fall of the two sides, for example, sometimes you make a "two-way stick", if you grab this move, Then your own chess is completely alive, and at the same time, it also exposes some weak tastes to the opponent. If it is taken away by the opponent, the opponent's chess will become solid, and your chess will not be alive as a whole, so like this kind of chess, It can be considered as small but big, even if you play this kind of chess in the layout stage, you can’t go wrong most of the time, and Xiang Ping’s move just now is a typical small but big move”

   Well, Ren Xie reporters are amateurs at some level, so of course he still understands things like "like small but big".

   But now there is a problem: as Ma Xiaofei just said "two-way pull stick", even if its value is simply calculated from the perspective of the official, it is usually more than 12 in the back. "Two-way fighting", the basic standard is 8 backhands.

Although the value of an official like    is not particularly large, it is still more than one stick-eye, but Li Xiangping's move just now seems to have only one or two eyes.

   "But the horse is small"

   Before Lao Xie could express his doubts, Ma Xiaofei seemed to already know what he was thinking:

"Hehe, old thank you, you want to say that although this hand is extremely thick, the number of meshes is really too small, right? If Xiang Ping plays like this, will there be pressure from the air behind him? Let me tell you, he This move actually has a purpose, and the number of meshes is not small."

   "Have a purpose?"

Ma Xiaofei nodded and said: "Of course there is an eye, thank you, don't forget, when we judge whether a hand of chess "has a purpose", we can't just look at the efficiency of its encircling the air, but also the efficiency of its air-breaking, such as You make a move, it can help you get around 10 gaps, and another move, it can help you break your opponent's 10 gaps, then in Go, the value of these two moves is exactly the same, thank you Say is that so?"

   Xie reporter did not say anything about this.

   Of course he didn't need to say anything. Ma Xiaofei's reasoning was so superficial, it was the kind of truth that a little white who didn't understand Go at all could understand it quickly.

Ma Xiaofei continued: "As for Xiangping's move just now, although the efficiency of enclosing the air is not high, it has a good efficiency of breaking the air. You see, after this move, the appearance of White's chess has already changed. It's affected, it's been compressed a lot, so of course you have to consider it to have some mesh value."

   "Then how much do you think it's worth?"

   "I don't know that."

Seeing reporter Xie staring at him, Ma Xiaofei paused for a while and continued with a smile: "Don't look at me like that, I really don't know now, I think this is actually a difficult part of Go, because now the problem is happening In the middle belly of the chessboard, the calculation of the number of meshes around the middle belly is actually the most difficult. For example, we assume that before the move of Li Xiangping, the appearance of Da Li can encircle 40 meshes, and after this move Well, look here"

  Speaking of this, Ma Xiaofei pointed to a place on the chessboard: this is a "breakpoint":

"With this chess, in addition to the original breakpoint, White has another breakpoint here. Considering that after Black has strengthened his move, his own chess has become iron, and his iron-heavy opponent is still strong. There is one more breakpoint, then there is nothing to say that the appearance of the opponent will definitely be compressed. If we look at it now, it is impossible to encircle 40 meshes. However, I can now confirm that the appearance of white has been compressed, but it will be compressed in the end. To what extent? Is it 30 meshes? 25 meshes? Is it more or less? Then I don't know now, it depends on the process behind the two sides."

Reporter Xie heard a little bit of meaning: "I heard Lao Cao say over there just now that he thinks that after Xiangping's chess move, Da Li has been a little difficult to handle, so I can understand it as: he actually thinks this The value of the move is quite high, and the appearance of White may be very compressed, and you didn't seem to agree with his opinion just now, so do you think this move may not be so severe?"

Ma Xiaofei said with a smile: "I didn't say that, let me explain it this way. The reason why Lao Cao and I made a difference in judgment is that the first reason is that this kind of place is really difficult. I'm not afraid to tell the truth. With the level of me and Lao Cao, then We can't see clearly the judgment of this kind of middle belly. Of course, the more important point is that we have a position when we watch the game. After this has a certain tendency, it actually affects the judgment. As far as I am concerned, my position is of course that I hope Xiang Ping can win, so when I watch chess, I will naturally have the feeling that "this may not be enough", obviously 10 meshes are enough, but I always feel I hope that he can compress as much as possible, and 15 points and 20 points are the best. In this case, he will feel that this kind of chess only compressed 10 points is average. From Lao Cao's standpoint, he Of course, it's the complete opposite of me. Compressing 10 meshes will feel too much, and he will feel pain in the flesh, and it is precisely this kind of pain in the flesh that he will worry about Da Li, and will say "Da Li" It may be difficult to say "this kind of thing."

After    explained this, Ma Xiaofei continued:

"But then again, regardless of whether there is a difference between my judgment and Lao Cao's judgment, Xiang Ping's move is definitely a good chess move. I even think that after seeing this move, I feel his chess moves. It went up again."

  Ma Xiaofei's words aroused reporter Xie's interest. Don't look at Li Xiangping, who is now a five-time champion, but in the eyes of outsiders, he is still just a 16-year-old boy, right? Since it is this age, it is of course still in the growth stage in theory.

   "Oh? Ma Xiao, why did you say that?"

   "The reason is very simple, because in the past, he basically never played this kind of chess."

Ma Xiaofei paused for a while and continued with a smile: "We all know Xiangping's greatness, his overall situation, his combat effectiveness, and his unique understanding of chess, of course, needless to say, but thank you for noticing that, In fact, before this, Li Xiangping had a kind of chess that he never played."

   Before Ma Xiaofei finished speaking, Reporter Xie interrupted impatiently:

   "Why does he never play chess?"

   "The chess on the floor, Lao Xie, didn't you realize that Li Xiangping never played chess on the floor before."

   "Ah! Flooring? Hehehe"

  Ma Xiaofei also laughed with reporter Xie. After laughing, he continued:

"Is that so? As for Xiang Ping's chess move today, although this move can be interpreted in many ways, in essence, this is a way of laying the floor, but it's a more advanced type with more connotations Abundantly laying the floor, this is actually the reason why I can't be as optimistic as Lao Cao, this is definitely a good player at chess, but Da Li is a master at laying the floor, he has been laying the floor there for many years, and Xiang Ping This is the first time, so the outcome of this game of chess, I think we still have to see it."

   "Haha, take a look and then take a look."

After chatting here, the two stopped talking and continued to pay attention to the progress of the chess game. At this time, there happened to be the latest chess score. The number of moves in this chess score is relatively large, and the new chess score has reached more than 120. hand.

   "Hehe, Ma Xiao is really right by you, the two really started to lay the floor, but this chess"

   Ma Xiaofei didn't say much after reading the chess manual:

   "There's not much to say about this chess game, I'm not to blame for every move and every move of both sides, but then again"

   "What are you talking about?"

   "Hehe, it's nothing, it's just that Da Li just follows suit like this? Is there something wrong with my judgment, or is there a deviation in his judgment?"

  It's a pity that when Ma Xiaofei said the last words, his voice was very low, so low that he seemed to be whispering softly, so reporter Xie didn't hear it clearly.

  The game continued like this step by step. Before I knew it, it was past 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and the chess game had already passed 150 moves.

   By this time, in the spectator room, the two major research lineups of China and South Korea are already two completely different expressions.

  The key word on the Korean side is "severe", from Lao Cao to Da Liu, from Da Liu to other chess players and reporters, almost all of them have serious expressions.

   As for the Chinese side, Ma Xiaofei's expression is the most representative, he can't believe it now:

   "Hey, what's the situation? What's going on with Da Li today? Isn't he euthanized today?"

   Will Da Li be euthanized? The game will soon be decided.
