Film and TV: Obtain Alpha Dog at the beginning

150 moves, when Qin Hao's white pieces landed: 8/12 position.

Liu Hong and Hu Haiyang fell into silence. After about a minute, Ma Xiaochun put two black pieces on the board: "I lost."

Wu Yue and the other two cheered, especially Wang Yang, who had just lost the game, and felt proud.

Ma Xiaochun's companions were furious.

"Why did you admit defeat? Don't you still have a chance?"

"Yes, it's just the endgame, there are plenty of places to play, why do you admit defeat?"

This involves not only a popsicle, but the dignity of the entire Zhejiang Youth Go. They are recognized as the strongest but were defeated by a ten-year-old child in Suzhou.

Ma Xiaochun did not explain, but looked down at the chessboard, as if he was reviewing which move he started to lose.

Hu Haiyang said to Liu Hong with a wry smile: "You kid said I was playing Tian Ji's horse race, but you are the one who has hidden a secret weapon."

He looked at Qin Hao and sighed: "It seems that you Suzhou will win the championship this time."

Liu Hong said modestly: "Hey, how can I say that? This is a national competition, there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers."

In fact, he was very happy in his heart. What is the highest level of recognition between men?

You are awesome, I am convinced.

Although Hu Haiyang was not convinced by him, but Qin Hao, who made Qin Hao his student at the Children's Palace.

Although the passengers around him could not understand Go, they still praised Qin Hao.

"Little guy is good, play well, strive to enter the national team as soon as possible, and win glory for the country."

"Come on, kids, the future of Chinese Go depends on your generation."

Strange but full of enthusiasm, this is the spirit of the 1970s.

At night, the train was still running slowly on the rails, making a clanging sound. The group of children who were on edge before were now leaning on each other and falling asleep. Qin Hao looked at the dark countryside outside the window and gradually closed his eyes.

The next day at noon, the train slowly drove into the Beijing Railway Station.

Before getting off the train, Hu Haiyang was very nervous and stood on his seat and shouted: "Don't squeeze first, wait until they get off before we get off. When we leave the station later, hold hands and don't get separated."

Liu Hong also stayed with Qin Hao and his party until the end, on the one hand for safety, and on the other hand to help Hu Haiyang take care of the group of children.

Although they waited until all the people in the carriage left before getting off the train, they still couldn't avoid being swept away by the surging crowd when they arrived at the exit.

Hu Haiyang shouted loudly: "Hold on tight, don't let go."

Qin Hao followed silently at the end. It must be said that there are too many people in the train station in this era. Not only are there many people, but they also carry a lot of things. Some people are holding three or four bulging sacks and squeezing out. It looks like pots and pans are all in them. Others are holding chickens and ducks, swaggering and holding them above their heads, not afraid of chicken shit falling on others.

After squeezing out with great difficulty, at the entrance of the station, Hu Haiyang nervously called the names of the children until he was relieved to make sure that the children were all there.

Then the group took the bus to the guesthouse. Don't even think about the special car pick-up. I guess the national team doesn't have this treatment these days.

It was crowded all the way again, and it took almost an hour to finally reach the guesthouse.

The group was already tired, feeling more tired than taking a train for a day.

After settling the children, Liu Hong finally had the heart to half-jokingly say to Hu Haiyang: "We are already in Beijing, isn't it time to fulfill the bet?"

Hu Haiyang laughed and scolded: "You kid are you afraid that I will run away?"

"I'm not afraid of you running away, but the children want to drink soda, right?"

"Yes!" Wu Yue and the other two were excited when they heard that there was soda to drink.

Ma Xiaochun's group of children on the side could only look at Qin Hao and his friends with envy in their eyes.

Hu Haiyang bought four bottles of Beibingyang soda in a store near the guesthouse. Qin Hao originally planned to get a can of Coca-Cola to bring back to Lin Dongzhe, but found that Coca-Cola had not yet entered the Chinese market at that time, and domestic manufacturers did not have the canning technology, so they had to give up this idea.

A bottle of Beibingyang cost 1.5 cents, and four bottles cost 60 cents, which was enough to make Hu Haiyang, who only earned less than 40 yuan a month, hurt his body.

However, after he paid the bill, Liu Hong bought more than 20 popsicles, which made Hu Haiyang a little embarrassed.

"How can I let you spend money on this."

"Why are you so touched? I'm giving this to the children. What does it have to do with you?" Liu Hong laughed and scolded.

The children in the guesthouse saw a pile of popsicles and swallowed their saliva, but no one took them. Instead, they looked at Hu Haiyang eagerly.

"Why are you still standing there? Why don't you thank Teacher Liu?"

"Thank you, Teacher Liu."

Liu Hong encouraged with a smile: "Play well tomorrow and strive to get a good ranking."

Ma Xiaochun held a popsicle in his mouth and walked to Qin Hao: "Can you play another game with me?"

Suddenly, Ma Xiaochun's teammates stopped sucking popsicles and looked at Qin Hao one by one.

Qin Hao thought for a while: "Just one game, I want to rest after the game."

"Okay."

The result was still 150 moves, and Ma Xiaochun resigned.

Only then did Hu Haiyang realize that Qin Hao's chess skills were far beyond Ma Xiaochun, which means that these two games were actually Qin Hao's guidance for Ma Xiaochun.

"Old Liu, where did such a monster come from in Suzhou?"

Although Liu Hong was proud, he was also confused. Qin Hao was so young, but his chess skills were unfathomable. Could he be the legendary genius?

Early the next morning, Qin Hao and his entourage went to the Beijing Children's Palace to compete. Due to the unprecedented scale of the National Children's Go Competition, the entire Children's Palace was suspended for a week to hold the competition.

"Teacher Hu, what is that man carrying? Is it a cannon?"

Hu Haiyang was happy: "That's a camera. If you enter the main competition, you might have a chance to be on TV."

"Really?"

When they heard about the opportunity to be on TV, the children were all excited.

After entering the Children's Palace, Hu Haiyang, Liu Hong, and Qin Hao went to register first and received their respective identity tags. This identity tag was numbered, and this number will be used in future competition draws.

"Wow, there are so many people."

There were already many children in an open space inside the Children's Palace, and Qin Hao and his party were also arranged in a corner.

Just when Qin Hao was bored with waiting and was about to close his eyes to rest, Wu Yue beside him suddenly became excited.

"Look, Teacher Chen is here."

"Teacher Nie is also here."

Looking in the direction of Wu Yue's finger, he saw two middle-aged men wearing glasses walking slowly behind the leaders. One of them had a thin and pale face, and his complexion was not very good, while the other looked faint. Fat figure, with a slight smile on his face.

"Everyone, please be quiet."

The leader came to the stage to speak and had a long speech. Qin Hao felt drowsy until the other party announced loudly.

“In this competition, not only the top ten will be qualified to enter the youth class of the China Chess Academy, but the top three will also receive additional prizes, namely: a Snowflake refrigerator, a Beijing brand TV, and a Phoenix bicycle. "

Qin Hao couldn't help but his eyes lit up. Song Ying was saving money to buy a TV set. In order to save money for vegetables, he planted a lot of snake melons. The fruits will start to bear next month. He didn't want to keep eating snake melons until he vomited.

After Liu Hong saw Qin Hao's expression, he immediately guided him: "The refrigerator is a fashionable thing. Aunt Song will definitely be happy if I take it back."

Qin Hao pretended not to hear it. No matter how good the refrigerator is, it cannot replace the TV.

After the leader’s speech, the game can finally begin.

The drawing of lots is done by their respective teachers. According to the rules of the competition, the first two rounds of the preliminary round draw all the players from other provinces, and they will not be mixed together until they enter the main round. This is also to prevent some cheating.

Qin Hao's opponent in the first round was a player from Guangzhou. He must be fourteen or fifteen years old and stood half a head taller than him.

When the other party saw Qin Hao's height, a look of surprise appeared on his face, and he was glad that he had drawn a good lottery.

The three of them, Wu Yue, also drew their respective opponents. After all the players at the competition venue were seated, the first round of the preliminary round officially began.

On the rostrum, several old men were drinking tea and chatting.

"I hope there will be a few good talents this year. These are the hopes for the future of Chinese Go."

"I have heard that there are several good ones. There is a kid named Qian Yuping in Shanghai who is said to be very talented. He is only 12 years old. There is a kid named Ma Xiaochun in Zhejiang who is 14 years old. It is said that he is already a professional chess player. Level.”

"Yes, there is a girl named Rui Naiwei. She is only fifteen years old this year. She is also from Shanghai. Her chess skills are already quite high."

Chen Zude and Nie Weiping were also secretly discussing.

"These children are so lucky to have such an opportunity at such a young age, unlike us who wasted so many years in vain." Chen Zude said with emotion.

Nie Weiping shook his head: "You can't say that. The years of going to the mountains and countryside have tempered my will. The flowers in the greenhouse have to go through the wind and rain outside before they can become talented."

"You are getting better and better at speaking in official style now. When you retire, how about you take the position of dean of the Chess Academy?" Chen Zude joked.

Nie Weiping laughed and scolded: "I sit down and I sit down. It is my duty to be able to contribute to China's Go cause."

"You said you were fat and you were breathless."

Just as the two were teasing each other, they were suddenly attracted by a burst of crying.

I saw a child of fourteen or fifteen years old crying loudly, while his opponent was a child who looked to be only ten years old.

The referee looked at the chessboard and announced: "No. 28 Qin Hao wins."

Qin Hao stood up, stretched and was the first to walk out of the arena.

Nie Weiping and Chen Zude subconsciously looked at their watches, and were surprised to find that only fifteen minutes had passed since the game officially started.

"You made your opponent cry in fifteen minutes?"

After thinking about it, Nie Weiping and Chen Zude asked the staff to bring the chess game over.

When he saw the results, Nie Weiping said "Huh".

"This black piece is such a fierce offensive."

After Chen Zude was silent for a moment, he slowly said: "And he didn't use any formulas. No wonder the kid lost so miserably."

The so-called formula is actually a summary of the previous games and the experience that is constantly summarized. It is just like the martial arts routines. How can you defend when the opponent attacks to achieve the best effect? ​​How can you attack so that the opponent can't look at each other from head to tail.

Among these formulas, there are experiences accumulated from ancient famous games in ancient chess records, as well as essences extracted from the games played by modern masters. Anyone who has systematically learned Go will start with these formulas.

Generally speaking, teenagers play chess based on fixed patterns, so the level gap is not too big. The winner is usually decided in the middle game or even the endgame. After all, the main role of fixed patterns is in the opening. How to further expand the advantage in the middle game depends entirely on the individual's chess skills.

"Interesting, his way of playing is either a wild way or he has mastered all the fixed patterns. I just don't know if he can still play such a fierce chess when he meets a really strong opponent." Nie Weiping looked at the rest area where Qin Hao was with interest.

Qin Hao stayed in the rest area for almost an hour and a half. The first round of the preliminary competition was finally over. Half of the people were eliminated directly. The competition was still very cruel. Many children came from afar, but they had to go home after playing a game of chess. They cried so hard that the teachers who led the team could only comfort them.

Soon it was time for the second round of draws, and Qin Hao drew a Guangdong player.

As a result, this time the opponent lasted less than half an hour and gave up. It was not that this player was better than the previous victim, but that he had a tougher character. He knew he was far behind, but he still gritted his teeth and persisted. When he finally gave up, his upper body was soaked with sweat.

On the other side, Wu Yue and Wang Yang also passed the second round of preliminary competition after a hard fight and successfully advanced to the main competition. Another player named Sun Chao was more unlucky. He was eliminated by a female chess player, which made Sun Chao cry miserably.

Ma Xiaochun was even worse. More than half of the players were eliminated directly. Only eight people advanced to the main competition. Hu Haiyang was also busy comforting those eliminated children.

Seeing this scene, Nie Weiping and Chen Zude couldn't help but sigh.

"Go is so cruel. Those who can come here to participate in the competition are the most talented ones in each region, but only one-fourth can enter the main competition."

"This is just the beginning. The elimination later will be even more cruel. Among these children, it is estimated that less than one-fifth can truly become professional players, and less than one-tenth can have a chance to win the championship."

The first day of the competition came to an end. When Qin Hao and his party were walking out, Wu Yue suddenly pointed to the rostrum: "What are you doing?"

Liu Hong said in an encouraging tone: "That is an interview video, which may be edited into the TV."

"Then why interview him instead of us?"

This question really stumped Liu Hong, and he could only say in an encouraging tone: "The child is called Qian Yuping. He was very famous in the Go circle before participating in the competition and is a recognized genius player."

"Is he very good? Can he be better than Qin Hao?" Wu Yue said unconvinced.

"We'll know after we've played it."

"Okay, stop imagining it. If you can make it to the top 24, maybe the TV station will interview you."

Wu Yue and Wang Yang were immediately filled with fighting spirit after hearing this. They shouted all the way: Make it to the top 24 and be on TV, causing Qin Hao to quickly hide behind them and stay away from these two middle school boys.
