Chess Soul: Buy the Shijia chessboard at the beginning

Liu Xinghao took the lead in the first game of the fifth game of the National Player Title Challenge, defeating the reigning "national player" Zhao Bingfeng in the middle game, leading 1:0.

After the victory, Liu Xinghao was very high-spirited in an interview, "Go is progressing. Every new style and new layout for newbies is a change. We are progressing in the change, so we won this victory."

In the WeChat group of the seminar, young chess players congratulated Liu Xinghao one after another.

"This time, because of the inspiration brought by Minze, there are two new types of newbies with layouts. From now on, Minze should not hide his secrets and submit good chess games for discussion as soon as possible," Liu Xinghao urged.

Tian Min didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he had no choice but to enter the AI ​​space that night and continue his game with the AI ​​0.5 version.

In the last seminar, it was believed that the invasion and elimination of the white chess piece in the 40th move was correct, which undoubtedly gave Tian Minze a lot of confidence to continue to develop in a big way.

A white chess move was made immediately to provide support for the middle chess piece.

Black continued to circle himself and made a fly move.

There are not many battles where the two sides compete for local strength. Tian Minze's strategy is to play a chess game that develops as smoothly as possible. It may be more effective to use the overall situation to deal with local gains and losses.

Until the 80th move, the chess game was still a little dull. Tian Min made a long move, quickly closed the move, paused, compiled the chess records and sent them to the seminar group.

What Tian Min did not expect was that at the first opportunity, several chess players who had read the chess records felt that the form of the white chess piece was very poor.

Wu Chunhao, the seventh-level player with the strongest computing power, was the first to say, "None of the attack points we thought of before were used, and White has been struggling to defend."

"White gave up its advantage, gave Black too much space, and played weakly," Liu Xinghao also commented.

Several other chess players also spoke one after another, all thinking that White's situation had deteriorated sharply.

Tong Xuanmo asked curiously, "Minze, do you think your opponent is too strong? It's not your style to give in at every turn. You would never play this kind of chess normally."

"White has no choice but to retreat. The original value brought by the invasion is gone. It is about to be finalized. The outcome of this game is unpredictable," Shun Yizhe suggested. "In my opinion, we must take the lead now and find a move." A master of offense, let’s study it in the next two days.”

It’s the last Monday in December, Christmas has just passed, and there seems to be some festive atmosphere in Kyoto.

The first game of the "Rookie King" finals was scheduled to be held before the second game of the National Team War. It was regarded as a warm-up venue. Before the broadcast started, the second game of the "National Team War" the next day was promoted through previews. The promotional videos of the two chess players Liu Xinghao and Zhao Bingfeng were played repeatedly.

Compared with the competition for the national title, the Rookie King final was obviously much less popular. Before entering the arena, Tian Minze looked at the two roll-ups at the entrance of the chess academy to promote the competition between Liu Xinghao and Zhao Bingfeng. This made Tian Minze very envious. When would he get his first title?

Yu Liang happened to pass behind him and stood next to Tian Minze.

The chess players who competed in the Rookie of the Year finals were standing next to the signboard of the "National Players Battle" challenge. This scene was undoubtedly a favorite of reporters, and the camera shutters kept ringing.

Yu Liang and Tian Minze also cooperated in posing several poses as requested by reporters.

"Yu Liang, today is the second competition between You and Tian Minze after the fixed stage race. What are your expectations?"

Yu Liang said seriously, "Journalist friend, I want to correct your mistake. There are no game points in the fixed-stage competition, so it cannot be counted in the official competition stipulated by the chess academy. Today is our first final. I I am confident that I can defeat my opponent.”

Yu Liang's declaration naturally made reporters very excited.

When it came time for Tian Minze to express his stance, Tian Minze just smiled and said, "It is my first time to enter the finals of an official competition. I don't necessarily have to win every time, but if I can become a regular in the finals in the future, I will be satisfied."

The reporters and friends all smiled. After all, the finals of the title match are usually a few old faces, and everyone is looking forward to the newcomers.

Before the game started, Tian Min was playing with his own coffee. This time he prepared a small coffee machine. He quickly brewed a cup of coffee and took a sip into his throat, feeling a hint of bitterness.

Yu Liang, who was on the opposite side, was much calmer, closing his eyes and resting, waiting for the game to start.

Both sides guessed the order, and Tian Min took the lead with black. As a chess player who likes to control the chess game, Tian Min was better at holding black.

Tian Min took out a chess piece from the chess box, raised it in the air, and cooperated with reporters to take photos. Soon the referee team began to clear the field and the game officially began.

"The system prompts that the opponent's chess strength is 89 points. Hit the stone with an egg! The winning reward is 40 points."

Tian Minze started with a high-profile move, and Yu Liang was prepared for it. He ignored Tian Minze's original opening move, which was a white piece with a small eye, point three and three.

Since Tian Minze and Liu Xinghao have used point 33 more and more, point 33 has become a routine method.

Speaking of which, it seems that Zhao Zhixun dared to click 33 in the first layout stage. It has some AI characteristics, but this "mole"-like style was quite questioned at the time.

Black's chess made a big move, and White's chess jumped between two pieces to defend the corner. Black immediately made a star move of "reliance".

Yu Liang was a little hesitant. He wanted to provoke a fight with his move, but Tian Minze's recent moves were obviously more floor-playing, and he rarely fought hand-to-hand with his opponents. At this time, Yu Liang made a move of "support". To simplify the situation.

Tian Min held the black piece without too much entanglement. Seeing that the opponent's defense had taken shape, he directly removed the edge.

Today’s explanation is still Yu Liang’s fellow disciple, Fang Xu 9th Dan.

This year, Fang Xu was eliminated outside the top 8 in all the five major ninth-dan title matches. Many people criticized him for not doing his job properly. However, now is the time when Fang Xu's newly created Go website is booming. As a professional Go website, Weida Go website has attracted attention as soon as it appeared on the scene. Killed many past Go platforms instantly.

Weida only specializes in Go, which is more pure. Chu Ying, a well-known online chess player, is also playing chess on this website and has never lost.

Before the explanation started, Fang Xu took the opportunity to promote his own website and invited chess fans to register. "Use the genuine Weida App on your mobile phone. When you register, you will receive cash red envelopes. After you win the first game, you will receive gifts. Don't miss it."

Leader Ji coughed lightly, "Back to the topic, today's game between Yu Liang and Tian Minze seemed to start smoothly. The two sides seemed to have a tacit understanding of each corner and there was not much fighting."

Fang Xu nodded and said, "Yes, so I have to say that Yu Liang has improved in chess again. At such an age, he has mastered the ability to advance and retreat freely, and is no longer afraid of the opponent's new tricks. With mature chess skills and humility, he is definitely a Go player. He is a rising star in the industry and has a very good image.”

Leader Ji coughed again and continued, "Twenty moves have passed, and the board is basically in a two-point situation. Both sides have gained some ground, and neither side has launched a entanglement attack."
