It was still dark when Li Zhen got up, and because of the late dawn in winter, it was dark, people could be faintly heard outside the courtyard, and some neighbors in the alley had already woken up.

Li Yizhi used to wake up earlier than Li Zhen, because Li Yizhi's hearing is more sensitive, and he couldn't fall asleep when he heard the noise.

Li Zhen got up and went to the next room to take a look. It was dark inside, and when he probed, he saw two people lying on the bed, one big and one small, sleeping face to face.

As soon as Li Zhen glanced at it, Chen Jing, who was sleeping on the outside, moved a bit, turned over lightly and jumped off the bed, picked up his clothes from the side, walked out lightly, and closed the door for Li Yizhi.

Li Zhen felt that if Chen Jing wasn't too young, he must have thought that these two people had something to do with each other...

Chen Jing put on his clothes, went to the kitchen, opened the lid of the stove with tongs, pinched out the charred coal, added a piece of new coal, closed the lid, and took a pot of tap water , put it on the stove to burn.

Turning around, he took out the washing basin from the cabinet and put it aside, waiting for the hot water to be poured.

Li Zhen looked at his proficient and capable movements, and couldn't help raising his eyebrows. After Chen Jing finished his work, he looked up and saw Li Zhen at the door, and said, "What do you want for breakfast, is there any taboo?"

"No."

Chen Jing nodded, seemed to think of something, and said, "I don't think so either."

"..." Li Zhen's eyelids twitched, thinking that he must have thought of the way he ate without starting last night, which must have left a very deep impression on Chen Jing.

After the water was boiled, Chen Jing also made water for Li Zhen. After washing himself, he went to the main house to wake up Li Yizhi. Li Yizhi got up to wash up, and Chen Jing went out to buy breakfast tacitly.

Li Zhen didn't speak, he now understands why Chen Jing is the only one in this world who has the ability to make Li Yi play chess, it seems reasonable.

I arrived home in a hurry yesterday, not many people knew about it, but if I wanted to spread some news in this alley, one night was enough.

The next morning, almost everyone knew that Chess King Li Zhen had returned...

There are countless people who want to play chess with Li Zhen. Although most of them are amateur chess players, they always want to compete with Li Jiuduan and see what a real professional chess player is.

Everyone was embarrassed to go home to disturb them, so they all piled up in the chess club. The chess club opened early in the morning and a group of people poured in. The scene was like the first time a supermarket appeared, and everyone lined up to enter the supermarket.

Fortunately, the chess club has a large area. If it was an old chess club, it would probably be overcrowded.

Naturally, Li Zhen wanted to see Li Yizhi's chess club. Before ten o'clock, the three of them went to the chess club together.

When everyone saw the chess king for the first time, it was as exaggerated as a parade welcome. Perhaps in the hearts of these people, Go is not just Go, but also a kind of blood and honor, because Li Zhen is the first one to defeat Japan in so many years. A nine-dan chess player.

Li Zhen has been out for such a long time, but he still feels that the alley is the most cordial. He is a fool and does not care about small details. He has a good relationship with everyone. He will not refuse when he is invited to play chess. It may take less than half an hour to kill it.

At noon, Chen Jing was going home to cook dinner, and Li Zhen was playing chess with a kid who didn't go to primary school. The kid threatened that if he couldn't beat the chess king, he would give Li Zhen the newly bought clown doll.

In the end, Li Zhen didn't know how bad it was to bully children. In 10 minutes, he killed other children without leaving a piece of paper. The children refused to admit defeat and continued to play. So they had been playing for more than an hour. Li Zhen seemed to be bullying children. Addiction, enjoy it.

Chen Jing planned to go back to cook by himself first, and Li Yizhi went back first with him. Chen Jing thought it was right, after all, Li Zhen was Ma Daha's character, if he took Li Yizhi home and bumped again, wouldn't it be bad.

The two walked back, and as soon as they entered the alley, a woman in a professional suit came up to her. She put on light makeup and looked very capable. She was carrying a large bag and her ID card was hanging on her chest.

Chen Jing had seen such a person before, and knew it was a reporter at a glance.

The woman came up and said, "Mr. Li, hello, I'm a reporter from Global Business Magazine, can I take a moment of your time?"

Li Yizhi was a little dazed when he heard the sound of high heels. It turned out to be a reporter. Li Yizhi smiled and said, "Sorry, I'm not Li Zhen."

The woman didn't leave, she looked him up and down, and said, "You are Mr. Li Yizhi, right? I'm here to find you."

Li Yizhi didn't speak, and Chen Jing supported him. He saw a lot of reporters. The reporters of these magazines and newspapers always rushed to Chen's house to interview. After all, the interviews of the Chen Group can be on the cover, especially financial magazines. .

The global business community is regarded as the boss in financial magazines, and it is very big in my impression. Finance and Go itself have nothing to do with it, but Chen Jing has seen it a lot, and naturally knows what they are thinking, because now Li Zhen is too big. To be famous, all magazines hope to use Chess King to boost their exposure.

And the Chess King has a blind apprentice, how could such fascinating news be missed.

Li Yizhi doesn't want to be interviewed. He has a psychological fear of facing the camera. He can't help but think back to his previous life. He was stopped by the camera and called a pervert. After losing chess, he was surrounded by a bunch of reporters. Losing chess, losing to a new player in the Go world, is it because of the homosexual incident.

Chen Jing also saw it, and supported Li Yizhi to walk back.

But the woman did not intend to give up, and chased them all the way to the alley, saying professionally as she walked: "Mr. Lu Wuduan, who is known as No.1 in blind chess, placed a hero post, and if he can win Lu Wudan, he can get a 100 million grand prize. I don’t know if Mr. Li is interested..."

Before the woman finished speaking, Li Yizhi interrupted her and said, "Sorry, I'm not interested."

The woman still had no intention of giving up, as if she hadn't heard Li Yizhi's refusal, she said: "This is a rare opportunity. Chess players from all over the country, even Japan and South Korea, will come to challenge Lu Wuduan's blind chess. Don't you plan to participate?" ?The competition will start after the Spring Festival. This is also a challenge in life, isn’t it? If you want to participate, Global Business Magazine will sponsor you free of charge. It won't be against you, Mr. Li think about it."

"Sorry, don't think about it."

Li Yizhi shook his head, stepped over the threshold, and asked Chen Jing to close the door.

The woman was still not reconciled, she pushed the door with her hands to prevent it from closing, and said, "Mr. Li, you don't think about yourself, don't you think about Li Jiuduan? The purpose of participating in the competition is to get prize money to cure your eyes. The blind chess competition has a prize money of 100 million, which is exactly what you need, and...do you think that money can cure your eyes? Don’t you need a matching cornea! "

As she spoke, the thing Chen Jing closed the door suddenly stopped, his eyes were not kind, he stared at the woman, the woman felt that a child was nothing to be afraid of, but was terrified by his eyes, without the confidence to speak up.

The woman struck while the iron was hot and said: "Global Business is a powerful magazine. If you report on the competition, it is just to promote cornea donation. The public face of the magazine is rich and powerful businessmen. If these people want to help you, they will find you soon." A suitable cornea, so that Li Jiuduan's efforts will not be in vain, isn't that good."

"It's good."

Chen Jing suddenly opened his mouth, and said coolly: "The chess king's apprentice is a gimmick, blindness is also a gimmick, and blind people playing blind chess is even more a gimmick. It's no wonder that such an exclusive report is not popular..."

He said, paused for a moment, stared at the woman and said, "Using cornea donation as a bargaining chip, how do you feel at ease."

The woman looked at the half-grown child in front of her. Although the other person's eyes always gave him a chill, after all, the child was a child, so it made people feel that there was no threat.

She said: "It's just a matter of mutual benefit. You get what you want, and we get what we want. Things always turn out well. Who cares about well-intentioned means, right?"

Perhaps all journalists are eloquent, and they must be good at grasping the weaknesses of everyone. Chen Jing opened the door, "10 minutes, leave after speaking."

The woman didn't care about his attitude and hurried to the door.

Li Yizhi sighed and walked towards the living room.

The reporter's name is Yuan Huiqin, and she is indeed a reporter from the global business community. She also has relatively old information and is very good at digging up news.

The fifth-level career Ma Ying-jeou published an article in a newspaper recently. He wrote thousands of words eloquently, expounding on his "Go life", saying that playing chess did not bring him fame or benefits. Being a chess king can be admired by thousands of people, but he still enjoys it. Go needs to be respected and so on.

At the end of the article, he mentioned that he wants to hold a million blindfold chess tournament. If someone can beat him in blindfold chess, then he would rather lose 100 million yuan. In the article, he also said that 100 million yuan is better than finding an opponent who can play blindfold chess It's really nothing, if no one sponsors, then he will take out 100 million by himself.

When Go was popular, how could no one sponsor the 100 million, which may be too much for one person, but for a business, 100 million is nothing, and use the 100 million invested in the early stage to make greater profits , why not do it.

The sponsor of the Blindfold Millions Tournament is the Global Business Magazine, which is why Yuan Huiqin is busy running around and publicizing.
