When Li Xiaoqiang came to the chessboard again, more and more amateur masters surrounded him. Li Xiaoqiang's meaning is obvious, he wants to "show the truth" on the chessboard. Interestingly, what Li Xiaoqiang wants to show is not clear for the time being. Another detail has caught a lot of attention.

It is said that compared with other children in the national junior team, Xiaoqiang does not seem to show outstanding chess talent, in terms of quick thinking, in terms of reaction speed, he has to be thrown off a few streets. Could it be that what we are seeing now is the embodiment of his talent in Go? He...... How many games does he have in his brain? ”

What do you see?

Li Xiaoqiang is still "drawing" on the chessboard. The difference is that this time he has two chessboards in front of him, and he "sets the score" on the two chessboards in turn. Yes, Li Xiaoqiang does seem to be "playing the score". His movements were fast and fluid, without a pause in between. Everyone noticed that the two games he played this time seemed to be a little different, one of them was still an ancient Chinese game, while the other game obviously had some characteristics of modern Go. What's more, Li Xiaoqiang had no chess games next to him during the entire "score" process. The chess pieces he played seemed to be deeply ingrained in his mind.

Thinking of the game he played "Hu Tietou" just now, the reason why everyone thinks that it was Li Xiaoqiang's own chess. was misled by Li Xiaoqiang's actions, and felt that he was too familiar with that chess, so familiar that people had the illusion that it could only be the chess he had played.

Reporter Zhang Da is a person who likes Lenovo very much, and at the same time, this person's observation ability is also good. All along, he wanted to explore the mystery of Li Xiaoqiang's "strength". With the contact time after a long time. Reporter Zhang Da is only willing to admit Li Xiaoqiang's "mature thinking", but he is absolutely unwilling to admit how smart Li Xiaoqiang is. At least his mental agility is average. From this point of view, he does not seem to be a "genius" in the true sense of the word.

And this time, he seems to have found a little clue and discovered what Li Xiaoqiang is different from ordinary people:

"Well, Xiaoqiang, this guy is actually very average everywhere else. At best, it can only be regarded as an ordinary level genius. Looking at it like this, it seems that his memory is still very good. But is memory useful for playing Go? I'll have to ask ...... later."

When Zhang Zhidong was still thinking about the question of "whether memory is useful for playing Go well", Li Xiaoqiang had already finished playing chess on two chessboards. After Zhang Zhidong took a brief look, he quickly understood what Li Xiaoqiang meant, and he couldn't help shaking his head and smiling bitterly:

"Xiaoqiang, this guy, does he have a grudge against this game of chess? Why does he always want to take out this game of chess to "show the public"? Well, it's not kind to be a man......"

Li Xiaoqiang played two games of chess, one game was one of the "Ten Rounds of Danghu", and the other game was Japan's "Famous Game of Vomiting Blood". Of course. These two games of chess were not finished, and in that game of "vomiting blood", Li Xiaoqiang stopped when he just put those two moves and was called "a wonderful hand in ancient and modern times" by the Japanese.

On another board, it is also a part of the "Ten Rounds of Danghu". Li Xiaoqiang knew that the last move he put was also a good move, but unfortunately, this move has no name, not only does it have no name, but many people don't know whether this move is a good move.

A group of amateur players gathered in front of these two chessboards. Everyone had a heated discussion about the situation of "Danghu Ten Innings". Because Li Xiaoqiang knew a lot of research materials from later generations, the "research" work progressed very quickly, and after half an hour, these amateur masters understood this "unknown master". They were all impressed by the far-reaching intention and wonderful idea of this "nameless hand". After understanding the purpose of this move. Li Xiaoqiang put out the actual combat process behind him. Chess can speak, and it can be seen from the actual combat process later that the two chess masters are well aware of the intention and purpose of this move. Both sides responded with great precision and few flaws.

Zhang Zhidong noticed. Most of the amateur masters are attracted by the "unknown master" step, and no one seems to want to mention those two steps, which the Japanese call "ancient and modern". Reporter Zhang Da knows Li Xiaoqiang's true thoughts. Therefore, he is very willing to cooperate with Li Xiaoqiang to act in a play:

"Ha Lu, I said Xiaoqiang, since you have put out all the most famous tricks of Japanese Go, why don't you study this trick with everyone. Although you are a descendant of ancient chess, you also need to learn Japanese Go. By the way, let me tell you a secret, Xiaoqiang looks down on this so-called "ancient and modern unparalleled master" very much. He seems to have a big opinion on these two moves, now let's listen to his research on these two moves, did he find a better way to play in this situation? ”

Other amateur masters also looked at Li Xiaoqiang with interest, indeed, "ancient and modern unparalleled masters" has been praised by chess players throughout the ages, and is considered to embody the essence of Japanese Go. Until the new century, these moves were often mentioned by many people, including many "experts" who studied Go, who cited this game as an example to show that Japanese Go was "advanced" compared to ancient Chinese chess.

"Hehe, I don't mean anything else in this game, I just want everyone to compare. There has been a lot of talk about this famous game in the Go world, and a lot of Go theories have been used to explain how ingenious these two moves are. I just want to ask you, if we go up and play chess by ourselves, which move would you prefer to face compared to the unknown move just now? ”

At this time, Li Xiaoqiang's meaning was already very clear. He didn't make any big sense at all, he used the simplest comparison to express his opinion. Yes, he didn't have to say anything at all, everyone understood what Li Xiaoqiang meant.

After the game of Go reaches a certain level, like the so-called "ancient and modern unparalleled masters", do you need to study it? Not needed! As long as there is an amateur level of 5 dan or above, and you don't even need to put a reference map, you can quickly know the meaning of these two moves. If you add two reference diagrams, as long as you have an amateur level of early stage or above, it doesn't take long to quickly understand the meaning of these two moves. As for the 3rd step in the "Zhanghe 3 Wonderful Hands", Li Xiaoqiang was embarrassed to put it out at all. It must be admitted that Li Xiaoqiang's dough is still relatively thin.

It's also a good move, a good move, and a move to get a good move, and people will know what you mean at a glance. The other move was made by a group of people who studied it for half a day before they could figure it out. If you were asked to sit down and play against someone. Do you think that is more profound? Which is harder to deal with?

It must be explained that the truth of most of the "Chonggu schools" is as simple as that. No matter how fanciful your reasoning is, you can find a better way to play chess first. If you say that other people's chess is not good, you can find a better move to prove that other people's chess is indeed inferior to you, then there is nothing to say. "Danghu Ten Games" has existed for hundreds of years, and that game has always been there. Aside from some boring saliva, does anyone put forward a deeper point of view, a more advanced approach? No, not until the new century.

Speaking of which. Li Xiaoqiang seems to really have an enmity with "ancient and modern unparalleled masters". Li Xiaoqiang often feels that he has been "poisoned" by it, so he always wants to provoke a "dispute between ancient and modern" in advance, so as not to poison more people.

How to look at the "ancient and modern unparalleled masters", a Korean "Go professor" once had a very incisive summary, and his views seem to have always represented the mainstream view of the Go world. It must be pointed out that although this "professor" is only a professional five-dan, he has always been engaged in Go education. Therefore, his views have a great influence among ordinary people, and it is precisely because of this that this view is also more poisonous. But fortunately, in the afterlife. The face of this "professor" was crackled by his compatriot Li Shishi.

How to understand the "ancient and modern unequaled hand", is it necessary to raise to the height of "ancient and modern"? These three clever moves are not exhaustive of the ingenuity of calculating the way, but as a classic, they do distinguish between ancient and modern chess. Discarded children in exchange for space and efficiency. The focus is on emptiness, not on the chess pieces, and the consciousness embodied in this game of chess is the same even in contemporary times. It is clearly one dimension higher than ancient chess, especially Chinese ancient chess. China's ancient chess, as a kind of "ziqi", has reached the ultimate in killing chess, but it is only a "two-dimensional" Go. In the ancient chess games accumulated in China for thousands of years, there is almost no such thing as "abandoning the son" (although the epigram "abandoning the son to compete for the first" was invented), and when the abandonment is not abandoned, it becomes complicated for no reason, so that it gives people the illusion of "profoundness". Because of the space, there is a sub-effect, abandon the sub-force, and exchange the sub-force for space, this kind of consciousness is the core problem of the development history of Sino-Japanese Go. ”

Indeed, this view seems to be very reasonable and very confusing, but in fact, it simply does not stand up to scrutiny. Thinking that he had believed such a point of view before, Li Xiaoqiang would feel blush. Blush at your ignorance, blush at your own illogicalness.

The core of this viewpoint is to put "eye chess" above "power chess". Think of "laying the floor" in Go as a higher realm. Li Xiaoqiang has always believed that because there has always been such a view in the professional Go world, Japanese Go may not have reached the height of ancient Chinese chess. Obviously, this view is still in the stage of "looking at mountains is not mountains", and has not reached the realm of "looking at mountains or mountains" at all. When Master Wu Qingyuan added a little bit of "look at the mountain or the mountain" chess, he beat the Japanese Go all over the ground to find teeth. When Li Shifo practiced the chess of "looking at the mountain is not the mountain" to the extreme, he still couldn't beat the "looking at the mountain or the mountain" that appeared later. When the germ of "looking at the mountain or the mountain" just appeared again in the chess world of the world, it was called "more than a period higher than our era" by Nie Whirlwind.

It is said that Chinese ancient chess will not "abandon the child". This is simply nonsense. If you study it carefully, in ancient Chinese chess, there has always been a debate between "power chess" and "eye chess".

Speaking of a thousand ways and ten thousand, Go is an "art of winning and losing". The various chess theories that evolved from Go are actually used to explain victory and defeat. Huang Shifan is respected as a "chess saint", because in their eyes, there is no so-called "eye chess" and "power chess" at all, and forcibly distinguishing such external performance from superior is the real inferior.

Li Xiaoqiang often jokingly thinks that if Chinese ancient chess really only has "fighting power". So Huang Shifan is not only in the "three grades", because in the "nine grades" of ancient Chinese chess. "Fighting power" is ranked 7th, only a little higher than "clumsy" and "foolish". These three products are what everyone often calls the "next three products".

In the thousands of years of development history of ancient Chinese chess, only Huang Shifan and the three of them are called "chess saints" by the people, while everyone else is a little worse, and the other highest can only be called "great powers". This is what everyone thinks, and only the chess of the three of them has truly reached the realm of "entering the gods". Others don't have the qualifications yet. Now some people say that our ancestors respected several chess players who "played three grades" as chess masters? Are they ignorant, or are our ancestors shallow?

Obviously, such a question is too big, and it is not something that Li Xiaoqiang can answer now. He only needs to provoke the "ancient and modern dispute" in advance, and leave the seeds of doubt in the minds of these amateur masters. His purpose was achieved. From Li Xiaoqiang's heart, he hopes that such a controversy will help Chinese Go. However, he knew very well in his heart that if his Go level did not reach that height, his opinion could only become one of the countless "saliva".

Our Li Xiaoqiang wants to become a "master", and he definitely does not want to become a "saliva man". Therefore, he took advantage of the heated discussion and slipped away very irresponsibly.

"Xiaoqiang, Xiaoqiang, don't go, we're chatting energetically. Come on, come on, I have one more question for you......"

"I said reporter Zhang, if you have any questions, let's leave them for later. By the way, don't you just want to know a little more about ancient Chinese chess? Don't forget, you lost today, I think you should prepare well today, and come to the chessboard tomorrow to receive my guidance. ”

"Ahem...... Ahem......"

"Haha (To be continued......)

PS: Actually, I don't want to write about "the controversy between ancient and modern", especially if I don't want to write such a large paragraph. If you write too much, it's easy to write very empty. It's also hard to write. Explain the author's point of view in the chapter, which is actually the author's true understanding and his own "experience". hehe

Don't blame me for "injecting water", let's write more about Xiaoqiang's growth in the future.
