[Soul of Chess] What if

This is a spacious and bright room on the fourth floor of the Chess Academy.

Although there were not too many people inside, it was not noisy at all.All of them are sitting at their desks and working hard.

It was quiet in the huge room.Therefore, when the phone rings suddenly, it seems abrupt.

"Hello, this is the chess and war planning department..." A clerk closest to the phone picked up the receiver.

"Oh, Amano is that you?"

Hearing this name, other people in the office also raised their heads and looked this way.

Although they didn't know what the person on the other side said, but watching the smile fade from the corner of the clerk's mouth, people knew the general idea in their hearts.

"Really, Mr. Zama also lost..." He sighed softly, and then said seriously, "Okay, I understand. Thank you for your hard work."

As soon as the clerk hung up the phone, the others couldn't help but whispered:

"I didn't expect Mr. Zama to lose too."

"That's right. I heard his tone before, and thought he was a sure winner, but the result still hasn't changed."

"Zama-sensei really underestimated the enemy this time. Anyway, Sai's winning streak is not fabricated, but he still said that."

"Zama-sensei should be thankful that those people in the publishing department didn't hear those words, otherwise it would be hard to bear."

"That is to say..."

This is what Sakamaki saw when he walked in.

Before the topic went far, he hurriedly said: "In short, the most important thing now is to confirm that there are no problems in all aspects of the next stage. Everyone, hurry up and take action!"

His utterance stopped the discussion in the room.Everyone in the office then started to implement the plans that had been formulated one by one according to the original division of labor.

"White has resigned.

Blackwon."

Looking at the two lines of words that appeared on the screen, Ah Guang felt indescribably happy in his heart.The depression that had been accumulated in the bottom of my heart for the past few days was also swept away.

"Zuo Wei, we won!"

The arc of Ah Guang's mouth continued to widen, and at the end, he laughed happily.

As if influenced by Ah Guang, Zuo Wei also had an extremely gentle smile on his face.

Just then, a dialog box popped up on the screen.

"Zuo Wei, the Chess Academy has invited you to participate in the competition again!" After roughly scanning the content, Aguang turned his head and looked at Zuo Wei with a smile, "Let me see who the opponent is in this competition~"

"what--?!"

Suddenly, Ah Guang's eyes widened.He couldn't help but moved closer to the display screen, and hesitantly read the words on it: "The opponent is... the four-time champion Taya Celebrity?!"

Hearing this name, Zuo Wei's aura froze, and there was a faint sense of tension in the surrounding air.

Feeling the oppressive feeling emanating from Zuowei, Aguang swallowed his saliva with a little difficulty.

Perhaps wanting to relieve his tense emotions, he turned his gaze back to the screen.

"This competition will be played five times. There will be a basic bonus of 1 million yuan. In addition, there will be a 1000 million bonus for each round won..."

Ah Guang silently calculated, if he wins all five games, he can get up to 5000 million yuan!

Such a large bonus, but I can only look at it...

Alas... Ah Guang sighed sadly.

No matter how high the bonus is, it doesn't make much sense to me. It would be great if I could change the reward to something else that wouldn't expose me.

The question is, what would be better instead?

Ah Guang rested his cheek and thought seriously.

Hmm...for example...exemption?

Ah Guang thought about it, so he asked: "Zuo Wei, why don't we discuss it with the Chess Academy to see if we can exchange the reward for a certificate of exemption?"

"Exemption?" Zuo Wei repeated in bewilderment.

"Yes." Aguang nodded affirmatively, "There is absolutely no way to claim the bonus, because it will definitely be exposed. But the form of exemption is different. Even if you fail to get it, it should not be easily damaged by others. Torajiro's The certificate of exemption has been well preserved until now, isn't it?"

"This..." Zuo Wei hesitated.

"Besides, that's the proof of the actual existence of Zuoweiqi power!"

A Guang's words made Zuo Wei's unresolute opposition gradually fade away.

Seeing Zuo Wei's heartbeat, Ah Guang tapped the keyboard.

The clerk who was in charge of confirming the game arrangement with Sai just sent the game arrangement to Sai routinely.

He didn't expect that the other party would reply to him. After all, everyone knew that Sai had never talked to anyone.Therefore, when he saw the dialog box that appeared on the screen, he couldn't help exclaiming: "Sai replied!"

"what?"

"real or fake?!"

The others stopped their work immediately after hearing this, and rushed over eagerly.

After all, sai has refused to talk to everyone since he appeared, so no one knows sai's intelligence.So after hearing the news of the other party's reply, everyone couldn't help but be a little curious while being surprised.

Sakamaki asked eagerly while walking over there: "What did sai say?"

"The other party asked if the reward for winning the competition could be exchanged for a certificate of exemption."

Hearing the clerk's reply and checking it again, Sakamaki pondered for a while, and then immediately ordered: "Quick! Call an emergency council immediately!"

For several weeks in a row, there were no professional chess players who challenged Sai on the Internet.

However, the popularity of the sai incident has not declined, and there is even a growing trend.

The reason may be the news that appeared on the Qiyuan website a few weeks ago.

There is still a pair of beautifully crafted promotional posters hanging on the homepage of the website, which reads:

"Peak duel

Challenge hand five rounds

Tayayuki Celebrity vssai」

After clicking on the picture, you will enter the special page of this competition.

At the top of the page are the words "The Strongest Chess Player Decisive Battle". The red writing stands out against the black background.There is also a countdown warning and logo on the upper right of the page to create momentum for the competition.

根据日程安排，五盘棋将分别于11月10日、11日、13日、14日和16日举行。对局开始时间为上午10时30分，对弈中途的休息时间不记入对局时限。

The game adopts the black tie mesh 5 and a half rules. Each player has three hours of reserve time and three 3-second countdown opportunities.

The competition set up a basic bonus of 1 million yuan, and Taya celebrities can also get 3000 million appearance fees.In addition, there is a winning reward of 1000 million for each game won.If celebrities win, they can get up to 6000 million won.If sai wins, all the prize money will be donated to go-related public welfare organizations, and sai will also receive a nine-duange certificate issued by the chess academy.

Seeing about sai's rewards after winning, although they were surprised that sai chose to donate all the huge prize money, what surprised people even more is that sai is not really a professional chess player? !

Although it cannot be ruled out that this is just a bomb released by the other party, if the situation is true, it can be regarded as a major breakthrough in the confirmation of Sai's identity.

If sai really wins, I don't know if he will show up to receive his rank certificate!

The match field of the game is located at the Nihon Ki-in, and there is also a commentary venue on the second floor of the Ki-in, where famous chess players will appear.

Although the battle situation on the day of the game will be broadcast on the Internet in real time, and the latest news of the game will be updated simultaneously on Blog, Twitter, and Facebook, but in order to feel the atmosphere of the game more closely, many people still submitted applications to the Chess Academy .

The Chess Academy is not only creating momentum on the Internet, the members of the council also try their best to expand the influence of the game in society.

After the planning department collected and sorted out the competition-related materials, they immediately arranged for people to send out invitation letters to major mainstream media, and actively organized press conferences, media meetings, and interviews.

In order to maintain the news heat of the competition, the Chess Academy sends out press releases to major media from time to time, and the latest news before the competition is also updated on the website of the Chess Academy from time to time.

Chess Academy's publication "Chess Weekly" has also opened up a special column for competitions as always.

With the joint efforts of various departments, this duel has received great attention.

In order to ensure the smooth progress of the competition, the organizing committee of the competition started to implement various matters of the competition one week before the official start of the competition.

The night before the competition, the planning department and other departments went to the competition venue to arrange the layout of the competition venue, and after checking all matters again, the preparatory work for the competition finally came to an end.
