Chapter 575 Exceptional Art Guidance

On February 7, 2005, on the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month, Li Xiangping defeated Li Shishi, and he won this year's "LG Cup" with a total score of 2-0.

This is Li Xiangping's 12th professional Go World Championship, and this is also the fifth championship trophy that Li Xiangping has won in the five professional Go World Championships this season.锍鍪雇雇, 馈雇, 馐馐, Huan Sang Lan, Jin Pang City Eight, from the tool Nao Chen Tong.

The impact of this event is beyond imagination.

At least beyond Li Xiangping's own imagination.

On the night of the end of the game, the news of his victory was broadcast on the "News Network" of the court channel, and it was not ordinary news. The court channel broadcasted it in this way:

"Good evening, everyone, welcome to watch the news broadcast. The main content of today's news broadcast is that in the "LG Cup" professional Go world chess king battle that ended in the afternoon, young Chinese chess player Li Xiangping defeated South Korea's Li Shishi to win the championship, covering the entire season. champion, accomplishing a feat commonly known as the 'Golden Slam'"

In fact, since the old Nie, news broadcasts on Go games are not particularly rare, but it is extremely rare to become the "main content" of news broadcasts.

In the domestic sports world, in the past, only athletes won medals in the Olympic Games, which could become the "main content", and even in the Olympic Games, news broadcasts usually do not report individuals, but a group.

This time, a non-Olympic event is regarded as the "main content", which shows that the official mouthpiece attaches great importance to this "Golden Slam".

When Li Xiangping returned to China the next day, the relevant reports were overwhelming, not just Go or sports media. This time, even the official mainstream media such as "People's Daily" and "Huaxia Youth Daily" also wrote articles and praised them. Li Xiangping's achievements.

is not only in China, but also in Japan and South Korea. There are also many related reports. Among them, the Korean media is not so exaggerated. After all, this time Li Xiangping stepped on Xiao Li's upper position.

Let Li Xiangping find it funny that it is the Japanese media. There are several mainstream Japanese media, they actually reported Li Xiangping's golden slam in an "outside" way:

"Sure enough, he is the messenger of the **** of chess. Li Xiangping is the one who was sent to the world to teach everyone how to play chess. Golden Slam, achieved!" (Yomiuri Shimbun)

To tell the truth, Li Xiangping was still a little complacent when he first learned about this. He felt that his buddy is now a good guy, and he can actually be "outside" in foreign newspapers.

It's just that Lao Xie told him later that it's not uncommon to be featured in Japanese media. Take Go as an example:

Iyama Yuta won the "Ahan Kiriyama Cup" at the age of 15, setting the record for the youngest title in the Japanese chess world.

At that time, Mr. Zhao Zhixun held the "Big Three Crowns" at the same time, outside the number.

Even this year, Zhang Xu won the "Celebrity" for the first time, and then defended the title of "Ben Yinfang". He only became a "celebrity" plus "Ben Yinfang", which is also an outsider.

As for foreign chess players, Da Li won the "Ying's Cup" four years ago and achieved the "Grand Slam" at that time (he had won all the world championships at that time), and the Japanese also gave him a number.

Li Xiangping is the "Golden Slam" this time, and the difficulty factor is N levels higher than the "Grand Slam", so this time he also has an extra number, which is of course nothing unusual.

After being scolded by Lao Xie Kopei, more than half of Li Xiangping's sourness disappeared at the time. Dare to love the "waiters" of the Japanese media, do they all do wholesale like this?

However, even if he is engaged in wholesale, it is a fact that Li Xiangping has become a media celebrity just a few days after winning the championship. News about him frequently appears in major media in East Asia.

The popularity of reached a climax on the third day of the new year.

Because this day is the annual "Annual Ceremony" of the Sports Channel of the Imperial Court, Li Xiangping has become the "Top Ten Athletes" for the third consecutive year.

This year is the year of the Olympic Games, and in this year's Athens Olympics, the Chinese team performed well, winning more than 30 gold medals in total, ranking second only to the old and the United States in the medal standings.

Li Xiangping is the only non-Olympic athlete selected for the "Top Ten" this time.

And among a lot of Olympic champions, Li Xiangping's popularity is not inferior, at least when the CCTV host interacts with the winners, they leave the most time for Li Xiangping.

The only person who can compete with Li Xiangping this year is Liu Xiang, the 110-meter hurdles champion.

It's just that all the hustle and bustle will disappear one day. After the seventh day of the first lunar month, the Spring Festival holiday has officially ended, and Li Xiangping's life has returned to normal again.

On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, because Li Datuhao and the others were still in their hometown and did not return, there was only Li Xiangping at home, and he suddenly felt a little bored with nothing to do.

He is the kind of boring guy who suddenly becomes so idle after being super busy for a while ��

Since October last year, Li Xiangping has been very busy, playing one after another, with almost no time to breathe. However, when the "LG Cup" ended, he suddenly did not play for a long time.

In 2005, the "Ying's Cup" held every four years is naturally gone. The "Toyota Cup", which is held every two years, is also absent this year.

In addition, the "Chunlan Cup" is also held every two years, and he has no chance to play in the finals this time.

So the World Series he can participate in this year is actually only those few annual competitions.

However, whether it is the "Samsung Cup" or the "LG Cup", there are qualifiers for these two competitions, and this competition will definitely be after the second half of the year.

Therefore, the earliest competition Li Xiangping can participate in this year is actually the "Fujitsu Cup", but even this competition will have to start in early April.

By the way, during this period, there is still a "Nongshim Cup", but this year's "Nongshim Cup" is better than so far, the situation of the Chinese team is better, and there are still 4 generals.

The corresponding South Korean team has only two people left, and the Japanese team has only one seedling left.

Therefore, according to the current situation, as the main player of the Chinese team, Li Xiangping, it is still unknown whether he will play this year, and even if he is required to play, he will only play the last game at the last moment.

"Hey~~~ it's boring. By the way, Brother Ding'an, let me ask you, do you think our current level has reached the level of your younger Wu Quan?"

"Hehe, what do I have to say about this? What do you think, little friend Xiangping?"

Li Xiangping smiled and said: "There's nothing to say about this, we don't need to belittle ourselves, I think with our current level, even if we are at the peak of Mr. Wu, we can compete with him, right? I think it's still a difference. To contend, if we join forces, I am afraid that even Mr. Wu will be at a disadvantage."

Lao Shi also smiled and said, "Xiangping little friend, is it meaningful for you to compare with that younger Wu Quan? To compare with this person, Ding'an thinks that only one indicator is meaningful."

Li Xiang paused for a while: "Brother Ding'an means that Mr. Wu has reached the level of being the first in the world?"

Old Shi sighed: "That's right, I don't hide it from my little friend Xiangping. Recently, in addition to studying dog tricks, I'm also reading his twelve volumes of "Liuhe: Go". An admiration, this person is indeed a genius, and some of his Go ideas in his later years have been close to dog tricks. You must know, little friend Xiangping, he does not have the conditions of ours, he can get close by his personal insight. Dog move, we can see how powerful this person is."

Mr. Wu's greatness, of course, Li Xiangping knew, so he continued with a smile:

"Okay, Ding'an brother, let's not guess how powerful he is now. Let's make the most straightforward comparison: Do you think we have reached the level of making the world the first half of the world?"

Lao Shi replied, "I personally don't think so. Of course, if we join forces, that's another matter. If we use our two swords together, we may have reached the level of half-first-come-first-served. But If it is alone, it has not reached the height of the first half."

Old Shi paused: "What do you think, little friend Xiangping?"

Of course, Li Xiangping did not dare to disagree with Lao Shi's statement.

His own family knows his own affairs. Don't look at how many wins he has won this year, especially after losing to Li Canghao, swept 4 times in 4 finals, 3 2-0, one 3-0, and he did not let his opponent win a set.

But even so, Li Xiangping did not dare to say that he had reached the level of being the first in the world.

It can be seen from many competitions that the gap between myself and other top human players is really minimal.

For example, someone like Da Li may already be at a higher level than him, but at most one or two eyes are better, and he may even have to be half a head. Li Xiangping believes that he has definitely not reached the "half first" level of more than 3 eyes.

In addition, there are people like Gu Dali and Li Shishi. Judging from the situation with them, he may be a little ahead, but don't forget that these two are young, so in a strict sense, they are also in the growth period.

And this thing is like Go, the lower the level, the faster the progress will be.

Thinking of this, Li Xiangping sighed: "Alas, the chess game is difficult, the chess game is difficult, and the hard work has taken so long, but we haven't even got a first place, and we have already considered it. If we want to fight dogs, we have to be one step ahead of humans. , and they must be ahead of each other separately, so that we can combine the two swords, and this may have a chance. Brother Ding'an, you said, how should we train next?"

Old Shi paused: "Hehe, don't you have a bit of free time next, so Ding'an thought it was time to consider training the pieces."

Li Xiangping was right, how could he forget about this? Since it's not that busy next time, it's a good time to try to train the pieces.

The best way to train handicap chess is, of course, playing online chess, so Li Xiangping did what he said.

As soon as "Jingyi" appeared, it immediately caused a commotion on the entire website, but before online netizens rushed to tell the story, "Jingyi" disappeared immediately.

But 3 minutes later, another vest of "Fantastic Art Instructor 1" appeared in "Yicheng".

"Haha Ding'an brother, let's use this vest to train hand chess. In order to train alone, I deliberately registered two, namely "Exquisite Art Instructor 1" and "Exquisite Art Instructor 2", Ding'an brother, you choose 1 or pick 2?"
