Seoul. The second game of the semifinals of the first "Samsung Cup".

At about 5 o'clock in the afternoon, in the game room, Li Xiaoqiang pondered for a while, and then dropped a chess piece. His opponent Liang Zaihao saw Li Xiaoqiang's fall, his upper body straightened slightly, and when he saw the place where Li Xiaoqiang fell, his brows wrinkled imperceptibly, and he slightly straightened the move that Li Xiaoqiang had just fallen with his hand, and Liang Zaihao then began to fall into the long test.

For Liang Zaihao's frowning action, others may not be aware of it, but Li Xiaoqiang, who is closest to him, is still aware of it. At the same time, Li Xiaoqiang also knew that the reason why his opponent frowned was not because of how good his move was just now, but because he didn't want to see him play this move.

If there is any characteristic of his move just now, it is one word: "stable"! Steady enough to keep yourself concise and winning, steady enough to leave little room for your opponent to take advantage of.

At the same time, it is also stable: let yourself be only a few dozen moves away from the first "Samsung Cup" finals!

"Can the adversary find any good means of concealment?"

At this time, Li Xiaoqiang even had time to wander. Go is broad and profound, and Li Xiaoqiang certainly can't ensure that there must be no good means to hide on the chessboard. But Li Xiaoqiang believes that his opponent should not be able to find any good means. Because at this time, your own retention time is much more than that of your opponent. Before I played that move, I went through a very detailed and careful calculation. According to his own level, he didn't see any means for the opponent to turn the tables. If Mr. Yang Jae-ho could really see it, then he would not be able to just rank 5th in South Korea.

"Maybe the two little guys next to them are more likely to find some weird tricks. Especially his ......"

When the opponent was taking the long exam, Li Xiaoqiang's eyes couldn't help but sweep to the referee's seat. Coincidentally, he happened to meet a pair of unruly eyes. Thinking of this, Li Xiaoqiang couldn't help but laugh dumbly.

Li Shishi and Cui Poison, who served as the notators of this game, were actually Li Shishi and Cui Poison. With this discovery. This, of course, made Li Xiaoqiang's "chess fan complex" in his previous life attack. Li Shishi and Cui Poison actually wrote down their own scores, which of course made Li Xiaoqiang very proud for a while.

In fact, at the beginning of this game of chess, Li Xiaoqiang didn't notice that it was Li Shishi and Cui Poison who were sitting in the referee's seat to write scores, but he just felt that the temperament of these two little Zhengtai was a bit special, one with a baby face and a standard good baby. The other one is nothing special in terms of appearance, but I feel that this little Zhengtai's eyes are a little special, it feels very bright, and it feels a bit like ...... Wolf's eyes.

To be honest, even Li Xiaoqiang himself wondered why he felt this way, he had never seen a wolf. How do you think a little Zhengtai will feel this way? After feeling this, Li Xiaoqiang glanced at the referee's seat twice. After paying attention to this, Li Xiaoqiang reacted: Damn! Isn't that well-behaved baby face the famous Cui Poison in later generations? And that Xiao Zhengtai with a pair of wolf eyes, isn't that another super genius of Korean Go, Xiao Li Li Shishi, who is famous all over the world for "zombie flow......

The opponent Liang Jaehao began to fall in the ninth section, and Li Xiaoqiang refocused his thoughts on the chess game. In fact, it is said that it is a "long test", but Liang Jaehao didn't think about it for long time - not because he didn't want to, but because he had already entered the countdown, he didn't have time to think for a long time.

Li Xiaoqiang looked at the chess pieces that his opponent had dropped. This move did not go beyond the scope of his own thinking. This means that the adversary should not have discovered a means that he has not even discovered. I should be getting closer and closer to the final victory.

At this time, Li Xiaoqiang instead gathered all his spirit and devoted all his energy to the chess game. After carefully checking it again. Li Xiaoqiang began to stereotype the overall situation and began to turn his advantage into a victory.

In the face of Li Xiaoqiang's impeccable "safe operation", although he was very unwilling, Mr. Liang Zaihao seemed helpless. He shook his head frequently. On the other hand, he also sped up the speed of his moves - experienced chess players knew that Mr. Liang Jaehao at this time, he should be ready to give up resistance.

Sure enough, after playing more than 20 moves. Around 5:20 p.m. Mr. Liang Zaihao made a gesture, and he motioned to stop the clock and admit defeat.

2 to 0! Li Xiaoqiang defeated Liang Jaehao with a score of 2-0 and entered the final of the first "Samsung Cup". This is also the second time that Li Xiaoqiang has entered the final of the World Series this year after the "Ying's Cup".

Although at the moment when the semi-final draw came out, this result seemed to be predestined. Although this result is expected by the vast majority of people. However, when the news of Li Xiaoqiang's victory was confirmed, many people were still happy for Li Xiaoqiang. Coach Luo breathed a long sigh of relief, and reporter Zhang Da rushed into the game room excitedly:

"Xiaoqiang, congratulations! Hehe. ”

Li Xiaoqiang, who won the game, was naturally very happy, and while reviewing with Liang Jaehao, he asked about the result of another game of chess: "How is the situation over there?" ”

"I don't know, that game is not finished yet. However, Lao Cao judged that there might be a tiebreaker over there. ”

"Oh?"

In the first game of the semifinals on the other side, it was Li Shifo who defeated Liu Changhe, and now listening to the meaning of Zhang Da's reporters, it should be that Liu Changhe is likely to win back a game.

"Let's go, let's see ......"

"No need to look at it......" At this time, Coach Luo walked in: "...... The result over there has come out, and the two sides are tied 1-1. Xiaoqiang, your opponent in this final will only be produced the day after tomorrow. ”

"Oh? Then we'...... now."

"I have already contacted the chess academy just now, and Lao Chen said that if we are willing, we will stay in South Korea for two more days and watch the play."

"Okay, hehe, watch the show."

Then Li Xiaoqiang did not leave his seat, and he had a long review with Liang Jaehao Jiudan. During this period, Li Shishi and Cui Poison were also involved. And the performance of the 2 Xiao Zhengtai is really impressive.

On the evening after the game, Coach Luo asked Li Xiaoqiang:

"Xiaoqiang, what do you think of those 2 Korean kids, how do their chess compare with Gu Dali and Kong Erjie?"

"You don't know until you've played chess, but if I just talk about my personal feelings, I feel that they are better than the kids in the national junior team at the moment."

"What! Do you think the two of them are stronger than the current Gu Dali and Kong Erjie? ”

After listening to Li Xiaoqiang's words, reporter Zhang Da looked a little surprised. Counting from 94 years, it has been the third year that Gu Dali has entered the national junior team. It's been more than two years. There are several young chess players who have gradually come to the fore, especially Gu Dali, Kong Erjie and Hu Yao of Shencheng, who are known as the "Three Musketeers of the National Youth", who are favored by the domestic chess circles and believe that the next generation of Chinese Go leaders should be produced among them. The Korean children who appeared in front of everyone today are about the same age as Gu Dali, and now I hear Li Xiaoqiang say that their current strength may be stronger than Gu Dali, and it is no wonder that Zhang Da reporter was surprised.

"yes. This is how I really feel. Li Xiaoqiang sighed, and the scene of the afternoon review was replayed in his mind again.

Today, I played this game of chess with Liang Zaihao, strictly speaking, it was a game of kung fu chess, and the whole situation was very flat. But whether it was Li Shishi or Cui Poison, they both put forward their own ideas when they reviewed it. Although their ideas are still very naïve and immature in Li Xiaoqiang's opinion. , if Liang Jaehao's actual combat had gone according to their ideas, it might have collapsed long ago. But I have to admit that their ideas are very special. Each has its own uniqueness. It can even be said that their ideas all shimmer with genius.

"Playing Go and playing Go, in the final analysis, you still have to play Go, and you can't practice it just by practicing behind closed doors."

Li Xiaoqiang shook his head. After sending such a sentence, he refused to say more. In his previous life, Li Xiaoqiang had heard such a saying: Chang Rensheng's chess was practiced in the national team, Gu Dali's chess was played in Weijia, and when it came to the "Little Leopard" generation of chess players, their chess was sharpened on the Internet.

Of course, "practiced" chess does not mean that it cannot be successful. But from the perspective of growth, it seems that it is not as fast as "hitting".

In later generations, although Li Shishi and Gu Dali were called "peerless double pride". But from the perspective of growth, Gu Dali has never been as fast as Li Shishi. In real history, when Gu Dali was still called the "ancient round", Li Shishi was already a world champion. This is actually a clear proof of this.

"Okay, let's not mention so much, let's get ready to watch the show now."

After a brief chat about the comparison between Gu Dali and Li Shishi, everyone put this topic aside. Of course, this is also normal, because what everyone is most concerned about now is: who can be Li Xiaoqiang's opponent in the final.

"Xiaoqiang, in your heart this time, who do you want to meet in the finals?"

"I'm not being hypocritical this time, this time I really think it's the same with everyone."

"Hahahaha......"

Time passed quickly, and after a day of rest, the tiebreaker between Lee Seok-fo and Yoo Chang-hyuk soon began. On the day of the competition, Li Xiaoqiang watched almost the whole game in the research room.

At around 4 o'clock in the afternoon, reporter Zhang Da asked Li Xiaoqiang:

"Xiaoqiang, what do you think of the current situation?"

"Warriors of internationalism."

"What do you say? Internationalist fighters? ”

Realizing that he had made a mistake, Li Xiaoqiang hurriedly remedied, and he said to reporter Zhang Da with a smile:

"I mean, I hope Yoo Chang-hyuk will be an internationalist warrior."

"Hahaha...... Do you mean to say that the current situation is favorable for Yoo Chang-hyuk? ”

Li Xiaoqiang ignored reporter Zhang Da and continued to pay close attention to the chess game.

At 5 o'clock in the afternoon, reporter Zhang Da asked Li Xiaoqiang again:

"Xiaoqiang, look at ...... now"

"You need to go back and think of a title."

"Want a title? What do you mean? ”

"Vulgar titles like "2nd handshake" are embarrassing to use all the time. ”

"The second handshake? What does this have to do with me? …… Wait, you mean the second handshake......"

"Yes."

This time, Li Xiaoqiang answered in the affirmative.

Things did not surprise Li Xiaoqiang, and at about half past five in the afternoon, the semi-finals of the first "Samsung Cup" were all over. Liu Changhe defeated Li Shifo and met Li Xiaoqiang again in the final.

At 6 o'clock in the afternoon, when Li Xiaoqiang and Liu Changhe shook hands together, reporter Zhang Da was worried below:

"What title should I use this time......" (To be continued.) )
