Go Legend Chapter 906

Chapter 906 Phoenix Ancient City - Lunar New Year Cup

"... Come to an enhanced version of the special tenth, which is to gather the ten strongest players of this era, and these players must have both strength and reputation, and then let them all have two pieces to see if they are qualified to fight. dog…"

When Li Xiangping had such a thought, it was like a wild horse that could not be contained.

But after thinking about it, I knew that my plan was a bit unrealistic, and it was very difficult to actually implement it.

First of all, the time is not right. In the past, the special tenth game was held in September and October every year. At that time, many world competitions had not ended at all. Like the "Samsung Cup", the preliminaries may have just ended.

Of course, the game time is only a small issue. Anyway, there is no one who can strictly stipulate when a game like Special Juban should be played.

If it's a big deal, postpone the time until all the championships of the whole season have been generated before it is too late.

And by that time, it is basically the Spring Festival next year, but it is possible to make the next special tenth in the form of "New Year's Cup".

The main thing is that people are hard to find.

After all, having 2 sons is no joke. Not everyone can be like Xu Xingyou, willing to put three sons in front of Huang Longshi.

Like the Korean big and small Li and the domestic ancient big Kong Er, although they admit that they are not as good as Li Xiangping, but they really put the two sons clearly in the public, some people will feel awkward, some people will feel embarrassed.

But there is no way. In this day and age, if you want to hold a top-level Go game, it would be impossible without these people.

For example, in such a special tenth, if you only look at the problem from the perspective of exercise value, Li Xiangping's letting Chen Xiaoqiang 2 is no different from letting Li Shishi 2, but the eye-catching degree and sensation of the game are definitely still great. the difference.

It is also for this reason that although Li Xiangping knew that it would be very difficult to organize this enhanced version of the special juban, he was unwilling to give up, and he kept thinking about it for a while.

First of all, we need to find a breakthrough. As long as one top player agrees to participate, the attitude of others may loosen.

And this breakthrough, Li Xiangping naturally chose Korean Xiao Li.

There is no way, Xiao Li now has eight crowns in hand, and he is the best player in the entire international arena since he retired from the regular competition. Moreover, Xiao Li is a bit arrogant and a bit rebellious. Li Xiangping believes that as long as he does his job well, His good friend Gu Dali will most likely agree. And as long as Li Shishi and Gu Dali agree, then South Korean Dali is also likely to agree.

As for Li Shishi's work, Li Xiangping didn't have any other special method, so he decided to come to the most vulgar way: to spend money.

I believe that there will be a brave man under the heavy reward, and the game bonus and appearance fee will be increased. Anyway, Xiao Li's daughter is now born, and he is eager to make money for milk powder, so for him now, it should be this kind of simple and rude the most efficient way. Of course, in addition to spending money, Li Xiangping also has to build momentum in advance, which can be regarded as a pre-heating for the special tenth edition of this enhanced version.

In July, Li Xiangping went to South Korea to participate in this year's "Asian Cup". There is nothing to say about the competition itself. Li Xiangping even won the championship of this competition once again through Zhang Xu of Japan and Park Tianzi of South Korea. Interview with reporters after the game.

This time, Li Xiangping was uncharacteristically, and he had a rare high profile:

"...Well, the game was very easy. I won this time very smoothly. It seems that I have participated in the Asian Cup so many times. I feel that this championship is the easiest to win." The Koreans with super self-esteem are still very sensitive. Xiangping said this, and a Korean reporter immediately asked:

"Oh, what makes you feel so relaxed? Do you think your opponents in the final are not good enough?"

"Haha no no, although your country's player Park is young, he is already a world champion, and he also entered the final of the Ying's Cup this year. I believe that he will definitely become a super chess player, and will become a leader in your country's Go world in the future. Representative, as for the easier win this time, it's not that the opponent played badly, it may be that I have increased my chess again.”

"Ah?! You're already at such a high level, yet you still improve?"

Li Xiangping nodded with a serious expression:

"Yes, in the last year or two, I feel that I have gained new insights and made new breakthroughs in chess, which enriches my chess content."

Li Xiang paused for a while, and took the initiative to bring the topic to the special tenth. He smiled and talked to a group of Go reporters:

"Don't look at the special tenth, I have lost for three years in a row, but if I play again this year, I feel that even the big and small Li of your country will come to the competition, and I am now confident to win the game."

In the face of Li Xiangping's wild remarks, all the Go reporters looked at each other, but there was no way to refute them.

Think about it too, this game was originally won by Li Xiangping, and in the field of Go, Li Xiangping has always been the strongest over the years.

It may be precisely because he could not refute that Li Xiangping's remarks did not cause controversy.

However, after returning to China, "Li Xiangping said that he had improved his chess again", but it was a popular award in China.

Well, of course, this hot grant was bought by Li Xiangping himself, just to maintain the continuity of the topic.

After maintaining the continuity of the topic, the next step is naturally the next step. First, I will send someone to Korea to contact Xiao Li privately and invite him to participate in this year's special tenth round. The condition is that this year's bonuses and appearance fees will be doubled, and the total budget will reach 20 million.

Xiao Li is obviously excited. 10 games of chess is 20 million, and the response of a single game is as high as 2 million. Now, the "Fujitsu Cup" has been suspended. As for other world competitions, the prize money for the world champion is generally 180. Ten thousand RNB or so, this is the market of this era.

Only one game of chess will be worth a world championship bonus. This condition obviously made Li Shishi's heart move, but he did not agree immediately because he was worried that it was a two-piece game.

It's easy to do as long as you are tempted. In the second half of 2013, the topic of special Juban suddenly became more and more on the Internet.

"Li Xiangping said he was up chess, but Li Shishi expressed dissatisfaction."

"I heard that Li Xiangping was playing chess, and Gu Dali expressed his intention to participate in this year's special tenth round..."

All kinds of true and false news are spread on the Internet, and from time to time they are on the hot list.

The turning point of the matter came on this year's National Day. At that time, this year's "Ying's Cup" had ended. Chinese teenager Fan Tingyu defeated South Korean Park Tianzi and won another championship for China. At the same time, Li Xiangping suddenly received Invitation to attend this year's National Day Reception.

"what!"

In the face of such an invitation, this made Li Xiangping a little overwhelmed, so naturally, facing such a sudden invitation, Li Xiangping did not know what the situation was.

"Hmph, do you think this invitation is for you, but it's actually for your grandfather, you are just attending in place of his old man..."

For this matter, the old man Li Yuanhu saw it more clearly. He explained to Li Xiangping patiently that after taking advantage of the subprime mortgage crisis in the United States to make a fortune, Li Xiangping discussed with his cousin and took out a large amount of money. Money, let grandpa do charity in his hometown.

Grandpa is an old revolutionary, he has a deep affection for his hometown, and he is still in good health, so he has been very motivated these years and has done a good job in his hometown.

Now, the country's "targeted poverty alleviation" policy is about to be introduced, and the things that my grandfather did in his hometown coincided with this general direction.

So, the good deeds the old man did in his hometown, some hidden benefits fell on Li Xiangping, his grandson.

After listening to Li Yuanhu's patient explanation, Li Xiangping was overjoyed at the time

The invitation in Li Xiangping's hand has the same meaning. Of course, there are reasons to be happy.

"Well, now that it has regained recognition

Just do what he says. After attending the National Day reception this year, Li Xiangping began to work hard in this direction.

2013 passed quickly. Looking at the world chess world this year, the overall pattern is not much different from that of the previous life. Starting from Jiang Weijie, and later the fan boss Tuo Jiaxi Shiyue and others, they all crowned their first championships.

The only exception is the "Evergrande Cup" that was not available in the previous life.

This year's Evergrande Cup is the final between Gu Dali and Li Shishi. This time Gu Dali did not lose the chain. In this year's five-game chess duel, he won the opponent 3-1, bringing his number of world champions to 6.

When the time came to the Spring Festival of 2014, when everyone wondered that the special tenth event last year was not held, CCTV released a blockbuster news that this year's special tenth event will become the "New Year's Cup", which will be directly hosted by CCTV.

The overall rules are roughly the same as in previous years, but the total budget has been increased to 20 million.

And what the majority of chess fans are most concerned about is the composition of this year's World League.

Li Canghao is here, Li Shishi is here, Kong Erjie is here, plus the 7 world champions freshly released this year, this year's world team lineup is formed.
