Go Legend

   Chapter 541 How can there be so many super-classes in this world

   20 minutes later, the "Fangyuan Chess and Cards Room" in the capital.

   "Oh, you're talking about him, you know, how can you be so cute with a beard at a young age, do you think we can consider signing him?"

  Li Xiangping smirked inwardly. Hearing Lao Cai's tone, he knew that he was definitely not familiar with "Old Man".

   Let Lao Cai "know" this person, and his beard may be the most important reason.

  Li Xiangping thinks about it now, he thinks this is actually normal.

  Now more than 20 new first stage players are born every year. Even aside from those children who are not ready to take the path of professional Go, among the remaining group of people, the current "Old Man" is inconspicuous.

   He hasn't achieved much yet, and hasn't even shown his character.

Unlike classmate Chen Xiaoqiang and "two meals and one meter", he has shown extraordinary talent since he was a child, and has been focused on training by various teams. He is not even better than classmate Xiaoyang last week.   is more jealous than Xunxun.

   And "柁 Lao" is not a famous teacher (his master is Wu Zhaoyi 9 dan), he is not from the developed area of ​​traditional Go (not from Beijing and Shanghai, nor from the Greater Central Plains or Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions, but from the border Daqing)

   To be honest, it is very difficult for a young chess player like "Old Man" to be noticed by various Weijia teams at this age!

   Even his most eye-catching face and beard is not a plus point for him, it’s more like a minus point �

  In most people's general cognition, can a guy with a long beard be able to play Go well? Can style and temperament match? Not to mention a child with a long beard, even those with particularly famous beards, such as Su Dongpo, he is a stinky chess basket.

   "Haha, not bad, Uncle Cai, I think that kid's chess is pretty good. If we sign him, now I don't dare to say anything else. It's definitely fine to be a substitute first."

   "Oh, did Xiang Ping know him before?"

   "Hehe, Uncle Cai sees what you said. They're all chess players. With that beard on his face, it's hard not to know him."

   "Old Cai smiled slightly: I'm not talking about his people, but about his chess. Xiangping, do you still know that kid's chess? I haven't heard of you before."

Li Xiangping was really asked by Lao Cai, because since he came back from time travel, it was the first time that he saw "Elder Qi", and Lao Cai is not so easy to fool, after all, he has a level of industry 4 or above. He is a master, so general lies really can't deceive him.

"Well, I really didn't know him before, but today I went to the chess academy and saw him participating in the selection for the national junior team. I took a look at the side and thought that this kid's chess is really good, and it's really worth it. Sign him."

   Lao Cai's eyes widened: "You just glanced at it and thought this child was worth signing?"

Seeing Lao Cai's eyes now, Li Xiangping gritted his teeth and felt that it might be impossible not to make a big move, because he looked at the fart before, he just saw that this person was "Elder Qi", a Chinese chess player in his previous life 13 years ago One of the "New Six Super Leagues" in the altar, so I hurried here.

  Li Xiangping started talking nonsense with his eyes open, he nodded and said:

   "That's right, although I only watched it for a while, I felt that this kid's chess was very characteristic. There was one idea that even I read and applauded, so I called you in a hurry."

"real!?"

   Lao Cai was really moved when he heard it.

   You must know that this is what Li Xiangping said, and it is a praise from Li Xiangping.

   And Li Xiangping has been out for several years. Has he praised his professional chess player?

  Well, he has always been very polite to senior players, but Lao Cai has never heard of Li Xiangping's praise for juniors or peers.

  For example, the kid from the Beijing team who had the best relationship with him, Lao Cai had heard Li Xiangping despise him, saying why he was still learning to walk in Handan, and he didn't know any of his own characteristics.

   But that kid with a long beard

   Lao Cai made a decision in an instant: Since Li Xiangping said so, then this child is indeed worth signing, no, it should be signed immediately, signed as soon as possible.

  Lao Cai's expression changes were seen by Li Xiangping.

   After all, they are all so familiar, and Li Xiangping is still considering whether or not to have a daughter, so Li Xiangping still understands the psychology of a local tyrant like Lao Cai.

  To say that the reason why a local tyrant like him sponsors Go is basically not expecting any commercial returns. It is commonly known as generating electricity with love. In addition to the pure love for Go, there is actually a kind of happiness that cannot be ignored.

  The joy of being "Bole"!

   This kind of happiness really cannot be ignored, especially for a local tyrant like Lao Cai, this may be regarded as a very high-level happiness.

   There is no need to cite other examples. Take Li Xiangping himself as an example. Why was he so concerned about his own affairs back then? Of course, it wasn't that he really regarded Li Xiangping as his son-in-law at that time. Apart from his relationship with the big local tyrant Li, the pleasure of "being a Bole" was the other most important reason.

  Obviously, after listening to Li Xiangping's words, Comrade Cai seems to be moved again, and he seems to really want to be a Bole again.

   "By the way, Xiangping, you said that the boy's master is Wu Zhaoyi's Jiuduan, right? I have Wu's Jiuduan's phone number here. I'll call him now."

   "Don't worry, don't worry, Uncle Cai"

   Seeing that Comrade Cai was so upright, he immediately made a decision just because of his own words, which made Li Xiangping hesitate a little.

   Of course, his hesitation is not to doubt the talent and talent of "Old Man". It is really that the child's growth rate is really slow compared with other peers, and it can basically be classified as a "late bloomer" type.

  In Li Xiangping's memory, the "old man" at this time was really inconspicuous. It was the first time in real history that he participated in the armor, and it seemed that it would be three or four years later.

   And it's interesting that he was noticed. That was when he participated in the "Chess Advocate Cup" that year, and finally reached the semi-finals or the finals, and even beat Kong Erjie in one game.

In fact, the results are not the point. "Elder" showed a certain trait through that game of chess, especially when people saw his super computing power, and then it was reported by "Go World". Only then did the Weijia team decide to sign He gives it a try.

   Then, with this test, a main force of the "Little Leopard Generation" was tried, and a "New Six Super League" was tried.

   It is precisely because of this attribute of "Old Man" that Li Xiangping hesitated, and the more determined Lao Cai was, the more hesitant he became.

   You have to know that he has never watched the game of "Old Man" just now, he really doesn't know what the current level of this guy is.

   If this is a sign, if this guy is still like his previous life, he will not officially enter the fast lane of growth until three or four years later.

  The other needless to say, in the next three or four years, where will you put the face of Li Dacai?

   It is precisely because of this consideration that Li Xiangping felt that he should be cautious. People may not sign, but Li Dacai's face must not be lost.

"Don't worry, Uncle Cai, I said it just now, I just watched it for a while, his chess is indeed quite characteristic, but what level is he, especially whether he has reached the level of the lower armor, this I I really didn't see it clearly, so Uncle Cai, do you think we should be more cautious? At least check him in other aspects?"

  Those who like to be Bole of course like to judge others, so Lao Cai Xinran said:

   "Hehe, alright, that Xiangping, you said, how should we assess him? How about you and Coach Wu?"

   "No, no, no need to be so troublesome" Li Xiangping hurriedly interrupted Comrade Lao Cai, thinking what a joke, I'm here to fight dogs, who has time to test a future star who is destined to become famous.

   "Uncle Cai, I don't think it's so troublesome. When it comes to assessment conditions, isn't there a ready-made one? He is participating in the national junior selection competition. Do you think we should use this selection competition as an assessment for him?"

   "Good good, good idea"

   So the two began to discuss clear assessment conditions.

   Obviously, if you are only selected for the national junior team, this will definitely not meet the standard of participating in the armor, so the assessment requirements must be higher than this. But what are the specific standards? The two discussed it for a while.

   Lao Cai said at the beginning that he would sign him as soon as he wins the trials, but he soon felt that this standard was too high, so he dropped to the top three.

   In other words, the two negotiated: as long as "Old Man" can achieve the top three results in this national junior team selection competition, he will be given a contract for the armor.

   It's just that at the end, Li Xiangping felt that it seemed to be a little less, so he gave Lao Cai another idea.

   Under Li Xiangping's suggestion, Comrade Cai happily dialed Wu Zhaoyi's 9th paragraph.

   "Yo President Cai! Thank you, thank you, why did you suddenly fall in love with Jiaxi?"

"Hehe, Wu Jiuduan, I don't hide it from you, it's not that I like him, it's Xiang Ping who likes his chess talent, you don't even think about it, just me, a stinky chess basket, if you want to like him, you have to have that ability. ."

   "Ah?! Xiang Ping? Xiang Ping took a fancy to Jiaxi's chess talent?"

   "Oh yes, so I want to congratulate you on Wu Jiuduan, you have taught a good apprentice, but let me tell you, when Xiang Ping was with me just now, he also put forward an additional condition."

   "Xiang Ping's additional condition, Mr. Cai, you said what you said."

"There's nothing else, it's the same as what we said before, as long as Jiaxi wins this national junior trial, I'll give him a contract for the main chess player. If he only wins the second or third place, then first Xiang Ping's only condition for a substitute contract is for you to notify him in advance."

   "Notify him in advance?"

   "Yes, it means don't hide this from the child. Isn't he just participating in the selection? I hope you will find a suitable opportunity to tell the child about this in the next day or two."

   Wu Jiuduan is also a master of Go, so he quickly understood the meaning of this sentence:

   "Xiang Ping means, in fact, he wants to see the child's ability to withstand pressure?"

"Haha that's right, that's what we mean, and you know Wu Jiuduan, it's inconvenient for us to talk about this kind of thing, it's better to trouble you as a master, how about it, it's not troublesome Bar?"

"Haha, no trouble, no trouble, Xiang Ping's opinion is very good, since you want to be a professional chess player, how can you do it if you don't have any psychological capacity, in short, Mr. Cai, thank you, no matter how he compares this time, I am heartfelt Thank you, thank you for giving him the opportunity"

   After the two of them hung up the phone, Li Xiangping and Comrade Lao Cai looked at each other and smiled. Li Xiangping said silently in his heart, "Old man, I'm sorry for setting so many obstacles for you, but I also sincerely hope that you can pass the assessment.

   After saying goodbye to Comrade Lao Cai, Li Xiangping thought of his daughter again. Standing at the door of the chess and card room for a while, Li Xiangping shook his head and finally decided not to tease her.

No matter what Li Xiangping thinks, she still thinks that she and Cai Shanshan are not compatible. She was a kind of "heroic and valiant" type of strong woman in her previous life. This is not Li Xiangping's dish at all, anyway, at least so far , Li Xiangping never thought of looking for such a person. Since this is the case, of course it is better to be less teased.

  Since he can't go to flirt with girls, then of course he can only go to go flirting with Go. After leaving the club, he began to take stock of his schedule for the next stage, especially the next event in October.

   First of all, of course, the temporarily added "Ahan Tongshan Cup". Although this competition has just started the preliminaries, it has not yet entered the "this competition" stage, so Li Xiangping still does not know the specific time and place of the competition.

   But the whole game is basically played in October.

  Because it is now, the time for the China-Japan Championship match has been determined, on November 5th, the venue of the competition will be at the "Snail House" in Kyoto, Japan.

   If there is a chance to play chess there, Li Xiangping needs to win at least 5 games in a row, and these 5 games should basically be completed in October.

  Compared with this competition, the schedule of the World Series in October is relatively loose, which is only a "Samsung Cup" quarter-finals and a "LG Cup" quarter-finals.

   But once these two games are over, Li Xiangping will be very busy.

   Next, "Toyota Cup" semi-finals, "Samsung Cup" semi-finals, domestic "Celebrity Battle" Wufan Chess Challenge, "LG Cup" semi-finals, "Ying's Cup" finals and so on will follow.

   These games are basically fan chess, and each game is more important than the other, of course, he can't help but relax.

   Of course, Li Xiangping never thought about relaxing.

   "Hey, don't they all say that winning me is super-class, how can there be so many super-classes in this world?"

   With this idea in mind, Li Xiangping came home and firstly prepared for the next important game: the "Samsung Cup" quarterfinals that started in early October.

   Li Xiangping's opponent in this game is Wang Lei's 8th dan. Although the game itself is nothing, Li Xiangping has no intention of relaxing. ​​​

  There is no other reason, the "Samsung Cup" is still alive compared to so far. This is the first time in the competition that has started this year, the two of them have survived in the same competition at the same time.

   In addition to Gu Dali, the "super-class" selected by chess fans actually survived three at the same time, which is why Li Xiangping attaches great importance to it.

   "Hehe Ding'an brother, how about you play for me in this game?"

  Li Xiangping never expected that Lao Shi simply refused:

   "No, if you pass this level, I can think about it in the next game."

   Li Xiangping was stunned for a moment, thinking that Lao Shi, can he be so temperamental when he is a plug-in?

   I'm exhausted,

   If you have the energy to ask for a monthly pass, ask for a recommended ticket, ask for a variety of tickets,

   Please everyone, thank you!
