In the previous life, there was a club in the domestic armor that wanted to dig Chang Rensheng. In response, the Shencheng Go team responded that if you want Chang Rensheng to transfer, you must have the nod of the mayor of Shencheng City.

The armor is still like this, and what Li Xiaoqiang is doing now, the problem will definitely be more serious, and the impact will definitely be greater. After Li Xiaoqiang himself knew about this, the first person to come to Li Xiaoqiang was really high-level. He is not Nie Whirlwind, nor is he Chen Chaoyue. He turned out to be ...... Dong Lao, honorary chairman of the Chinese Weiqi Association.

Dong Lao is now old, and he has long stopped caring about specific affairs. Li Xiaoqiang really didn't expect that he would come out this time and ask himself about this in person.

Li Xiaoqiang hasn't seen Dong Lao for a long time. After this meeting, Li Xiaoqiang hurriedly went up to set almost:

"Dong Lao, your spirit looks good......

Dong Lao didn't give Li Xiaoqiang a good look:

"Yo, our Li Datian is here, I heard that our Li Datian is out now, and he is ready to go to Japan to earn yen."

Li Xiaoqiang immediately cursed and swore, saying that he had absolutely no such idea, and that all this was just wishful thinking on the part of the Japanese side.

Dong Lao stared at Li Xiaoqiang's eyes: "Really? ”

"Of course that's true, you think, what's the matter with me going to Japan, isn't that a reversal? Is there something like the inverted door, can I Li Xiaoqiang do it......"

"Hey, hey." Dong Lao laughed angrily at Li Xiaoqiang's words: "You also know the inverted door, you can tell me honestly, what is the matter between you and that Japanese female doll?" ”

Li Xiaoqiang was silent. At this time, he could only choose to be silent. Neither admit nor quibble. What is the meaning of paper that can't hold fire, and what is the meaning of "if people don't know, unless they don't do it", this is roughly the meaning. Nothing can be out of nowhere. It has not been a day or two since he and Yukari Umezawa were called 'golden boys and girls' by the Go world. Why didn't anyone mention joining the Japan Chess Academy before? And now this thing is making a fuss?

That can only show one event, the relationship between himself and Yukari Umezawa has been noticed by someone with a heart. Li Xiaoqiang didn't care how others found out about this. Even if Yukari Umezawa is exposed by herself, Li Xiaoqiang thinks that she can't be blamed. After all, Li Xiaoqiang thinks that he can't do this kind of thing when he mentions his pants and doesn't admit it. Therefore, in the face of Dong Lao's inquiry, Li Xiaoqiang could only be silent. And silence. Actually, it's the default.

"You, you, you young people......"

Dong Lao pointed at Li Xiaoqiang with his fingers, but he didn't know what to say for a while. To be honest, Dong Lao came to see Li Xiaoqiang this time, he just wanted to confirm whether Li Xiaoqiang had any intention of joining the Japanese Chess Academy. Fujisawa Hideyuki's old god stick said back then: "Li Sang is the treasure of Chinese Go", Dong Lao has always remembered deeply. If Li Xiaoqiang himself reveals his intention to join the Japanese Chess Academy, it is estimated that Dong Lao will definitely be furious. But seeing that Li Xiaoqiang didn't mean this at all, Dong Lao really couldn't say anything about other things.

Can Li Xiaoqiang's "style of life" be blamed for having problems? What age is it now, and Li Xiaoqiang is not a Nie whirlwind, a man has not married a woman. Even if the girl doll is Japanese, is it a big deal?

"You can ask the girl if she would like to come to China. If she is willing, then I will arrange the rest of the things to ensure that she will not be wronged. ”

Li Xiaoqiang knew that since he was very young, Dong Lao and others have always favored him. The tone in which he speaks now is exactly the same as the elders of the family treat the children and nephews of the family. The more Dong Lao is like this, the more Li Xiaoqiang naturally dares not hide it.

Li Xiaoqiang smiled bitterly: "Dong Lao." If she is allowed to come to China, I am afraid it will only be more troublesome. ”

"What do you mean, kid...... By the way......" Dong Lao patted his head, it seems that he really knows Li Xiaoqiang's situation very well: "I forgot that your kid still has a childhood sweetheart in China, I heard that the female doll in China will graduate from college this year." So what are you going to do in the future? ”

What to do? Now Li Xiaoqiang knows what to do. Li Xiaoqiang said in his heart that if the two of them had no opinion. I'd love to step on two boats. Tsk, one in China, one in Japan, it's cool to think about. But you are always in a high position. Can you still help me with this kind of thing? Now that this is happening, the people who join the Japanese Chess Academy are all floating clouds, and how to explain to Lin Mengyu is the top priority I face. This kind of thing you can't help with.

The so-called clean officials are difficult to decide family affairs. Dong Lao really didn't have any good way:

"Look at this, you can only use one procrastination trick now? However, for the fact that the Japanese Chess Academy invited you to join, it is better for you to make a statement in your personal name or something. Don't let this continue to make a fuss. ”

Feeling that this matter could not be solved by himself, Dong Lao looked listless, and after chatting with Li Xiaoqiang casually, he waved his hand to let Li Xiaoqiang get out.

"I would like to express my gratitude to the Japan Chess Academy for the invitation, and thank them for holding me in such high esteem. However, I would like to declare that I have never wanted to join the Japan Chess Academy, and I will never join the Japan Chess Academy, whether it was, is, or will never be. As for the reasons, I don't think there is any need for explanations at all, and there is no need for any reasons at all......"

With Li Xiaoqiang's statement, the turmoil of "Li Xiaoqiang joining the Japanese Chess Academy" was suppressed on the surface. However, the troubles faced by Li Xiaoqiang have not been solved in any way, but have a tendency to become more and more troublesome.

As a result, Li Xiaoqiang's competitive state continued to be sluggish.

In September 1995, Li Xiaoqiang went to Japan to participate in the "Sino-Japanese Tianyuan Confrontation Match", and finally he defeated the Japanese "Tianyuan" Liu Shixun with a score of 2-0. This result did not come as expected. For Li Xiaoqiang, such a victory is not something to be happy about at all.

When Li Xiaoqiang came to Japan this time, his "full-time translator" was gone, and he didn't even see Umezawa in private. On the contrary, it is reporters from all walks of life, who ask very little about what is happening on the chessboard. All Li Xiaoqiang heard was "What is the relationship between you and Mei Ze?" "To what extent is your relationship with Umezawa progressing now......" annoyed Li Xiaoqiang.

In October 1995, two international competitions were rekindled, one was the new "Toyo Securities Cup" and the other was the new Three Kingdoms Tournament. In these two games, Li Xiaoqiang's performance was a big disappointment, following the "Asian Cup", Li Xiaoqiang once again "a round tour" in the "Toyo Securities Cup". In the Three Kingdoms Ring Match, Li Xiaoqiang, who once again served as the deputy coach of the Chinese side, won in one set. He continued to move towards the trough.

Also in October, after a one-year trial period, Chinese Go officially announced the implementation of the grading system. In the trial stage of the rating, Li Xiaoqiang originally occupied the first place in the rating for a long time. However, since the defeat in the final of the "Toyo Securities Cup", the rating score has also adopted a new weighting algorithm, and Li Xiaoqiang's rating score is ranked second behind Ma Xiaofei. By the time Ma Xiaofei won the "Fujitsu Cup" championship, the scores of the two had become bigger and bigger.

In November 1995, Li Xiaoqiang's situation still did not seem to improve. In the domestic arena, the "Chess King Battle" and "Celebrity Battle" have lost their chances with Li Xiaoqiang. However, in the "National Hand War", Li Xiaoqiang failed to wait for Ma Xiaofei's challenge this time, he unexpectedly lost to Yu Bin in the qualifiers, and Yu Bin finally won the right to challenge.

3 to 2, this is the final score of the "national hand battle", and Li Xiaoqiang successfully defended his title. However, such a result does not seem to be satisfactory. Li Xiaoqiang not only won the stumbling blocks, but the content of the chess was also boring. Almost everyone can feel that Li Xiaoqiang seems to be still struggling in the trough.

In December 1995, Li Xiaoqiang seemed to have finally shown signs of bottoming out. In this month, Li Xiaoqiang's only major event was the "China-South Korea Hand Competition". Li Xiaoqiang's opponent this year was replaced by Cao Yanzi. He regained the title of "national player" of South Korea from Lee Seok-fo.

2 to 0! Li Xiaoqiang won the "China-South Korea Go National Player Competition" for the second consecutive year. With this victory, it also stretched his official record with Cao Yanzi to 4 to 2.

With the end of the "China-South Korea Hand Competition", all of Li Xiaoqiang's journeys in 1995 have also come to an end.

"Tianyuan Battle", "National Hand Battle" and "CCTV Cup", 3 domestic championships plus two bilateral victories, this is the result handed over by Li Xiaoqiang this year. If other players get this result, of course, it's pretty good. However, pressing this achievement on Li Xiaoqiang's head, thinking of Li Xiaoqiang's high spirits at this time a year ago, Li Xiaoqiang's ambition, such results are obviously not satisfactory.

What's more, there are comparisons around Li Xiaoqiang, and under the support of Ma Xiaofei, Li Xiaoqiang's achievements are even more dismal.

Just when Li Xiaoqiang defeated Cao Yanzi and won the "China-South Korea Hand Competition" again. Li Xiaoqiang still has not become the focus of the chess world, and everyone still pays more attention to Ma Xiaofei.

Because not long after Li Xiaoqiang's victory, Ma Xiaofei once again reached the final of the 7th "Toyo Securities Cup".

Three finals in one year, two championships. This year, Ma Xiaofei has unlimited scenery. At this time, he is indeed the brightest star in the entire world chess world.

Ma Xiaofei's opponent in the final this time was Li Shifo. The Li Shifo, who has been invincible in the domestic competition arena but has not been seen in the international arena for a long time.

"I am confident that I will defend the Toyo Securities Cup, and I think my probability of winning this final is about 52 percent......

No one knows how Ma Xiaofei's probability was calculated. But everyone saw Ma Xiaofei's high spirits and was full of ambition.

The year 1996 of the world chess world is coming, is this really an era of changing kings' flags at the head of the city? (To be continued.) )
