Go: I’m 50-50 against the AI

Chapter 267 266. Motivate each other

The third game of the semi-finals started directly the day after the second game.

Unfortunately, Shi Mingzhi lost to Park Jung-hwan in 9th dan, perhaps due to psychological implications, and missed another opportunity to enter the World Series finals.

You must know that the prize money for the runner-up in the World Series is not at the same level as the semi-finalists.

The runner-up of the Ying's Cup will receive a prize of US$100,000, while the top four will receive only US$25,000.

In this game, Mingzhi Jiuduan lost 75,000 US dollars directly.

This is not a soft girl coin.

It's a knife.

Us dollars.

After more than ten years, the house in a small county town was lost.

Shi Mingzhi will be damned if he doesn't regret his ninth degree.

And just like every previous competition, there is always one person from South Korea who can guarantee entry into the Ying's Cup finals.

And Park Zhenghuan got this guarantee this year.

Because the semifinals were held in Shanghai, Ying Jie did not leave directly after the game, but stayed at the hotel arranged by the organizer for another day.

The next day, I also came to the competition site to shake hands and take photos with Park Jung-hwan, the winner of today’s semi-finals. One person from China and South Korea advanced to the finals.

After taking the photo, it was the usual media interview session. He was still the reporter from Yangma, but it was not Hao Sangsang who often interviewed Ying Jie before, but a male reporter.

It is said that reporter Hao was transferred to the Yangma Channel and will no longer host the sports channel.

The male reporter asked questions more directly, and asked straight to the point: "Player Ying Jie, first of all, congratulations on entering the finals of the Ying's Cup World Go Championship, and setting a record for being the youngest person in the world finals.

According to our information, you are 15 years old now, right? "

Ying Jie nodded when he heard this: "Yes, I was born in August 1995, just after my birthday. I am exactly 15 years old and less than 15 years old for one month."

“You are very young, we young people can’t believe it.

Normally, many people feel that they should still be in high school at this age, but you have already competed in the World Series. It can be said that you are already a big step ahead of your peers. "

When he heard others praising his age, Ying Jie just said in a normal way: "Actually, many chess players nowadays are very young and can achieve results, including the regular chess players who are getting younger and younger every year.

Because the current game is actually very convenient, we can often play chess online. Basically, the amount of games played by young chess players has increased significantly compared with the previous generation. It can even be said to have doubled several times or dozens of times. .

And it used to be that you often needed to find a good teacher for face-to-face teaching, but now some online teaching options are also beginning to appear.

Although training often takes place in big cities such as the capital, many children in small cities can also enjoy a lot of resources when they are just starting out, helping them develop better when they start.

In fact, I am more grateful to the Internet age. Technological progress has really promoted a lot of our progress, so both strength and growth speed will be greatly advanced.

It’s not that we are smarter than our predecessors, it’s just that with the help of technology, we have access to better resources than our predecessors. "

Indeed, with the help of the Internet era, the chess players of the 90s generation can basically tell that they have world championship qualifications in their teens, and then win the championship in two years.

As for the next generation that will emerge in the AI ​​era, no one dares to imagine what it will be like.

Looking at Ying Jie, who was very humble as usual, the male reporter was a little confused. Before he came, his colleagues told him that Ying Jie could set the pace himself.

Why do you say this so calmly today?

"What do you want to say about yesterday's game? How should you evaluate it?"

Ying Jie thought for a moment: "The quality of yesterday's game was not very good. In fact, there were many mistakes.

Chinese rules, including Ying's rules, require eight points. In fact, it may be relatively difficult for black to play.

I need to take the initiative to attack and then find a way to make up for this shortcoming. The intensity of the active attack is also difficult to grasp.

This is also the consensus of everyone, but if the rules are changed to five and a half eyes, it is difficult to say whether it will be better than now.

Although I won, I was not very satisfied with the content of the game. I might have been in good shape in the first game, but after a day’s rest, I was not in good shape in the second game.

But I was lucky enough to win.

I'm actually quite happy to enter the finals with 2:0. It's also the first time in my life that I've entered the finals of a world series.

For the time being, we don’t know when the Yingshi Cup finals will start. I hope it can be faster so that the finals can be completed as soon as possible.

I will adjust my condition and be in the best condition to meet my first world competition. I also hope to win the first world championship in my life as soon as possible. "

"It seems that you are very confident to win this championship. Your opponent is the Korean chess player Park Jung-hwan who won the competition today.

Today we also narrowly defeated Shi Mingzhi 9th Dan. Do you have any comments on these two chess players? If you had a choice, who would you like to be your opponent in the final? "

"Both of them are very top chess players. In terms of each other's performance, Shi Mingzhi's 9th Dan may be better.

However, the strength of the two people is actually about the same. Mingzhi's ninth-dan status may not be very good today, and he lost.

Actually, it doesn’t matter to me who my opponent is in the finals.

But as the opponent in the final, there are not so many ifs. It is already certain that Park Jung-hwan is 9th Dan.

All I can do is try my best to prepare for this final and win my first world championship. "

"You will compete in the Asian Games next month. Do you think you can win the gold medal?"

“Because several events in the Go Asian Games are not individual competitions, but team competitions.

I'm in a men's team and a mixed doubles team. It may depend on the condition of my teammates.

Anyway, we hope to win at least two of the three gold medals this time, and we will try our best. "

"Do you have any comments about today's semifinal opponent, Korean chess player Choi Taek?

Because Korea has always promoted that he is your only opponent behind you. "

"Cui Ze, I remember that he was selected a year earlier than me. He is also slightly older than me and got results earlier. I think I am catching up from behind.

Well, there is nothing to say about chess. He is an excellent young chess player. No one in this generation in Korea can surpass him.

Maybe it’s just because of his dull personality, and of course it’s also due to the inconvenience of language communication between us.

Personally, I still prefer chess players with a personality like Gao Yongxia's 9th Dan. We can encourage each other.

In this way, it will be more interesting whether it is viewing or anything else. "
