Chapter 30 The provincial capital
Cuiwei County Education Bureau, in the small conference room on the second floor. Lu Fanyun is receiving a group of guests. He spoke while making tea for the guests:
"Old Xiong, I didn't expect you to come so quickly. I originally discussed with Lao Qian and the others when I would take the child to the provincial capital to see you, but now the New Year is over, and everyone has a lot of chores on their hands, but I didn't expect..."
Xiong Guotao waved his hand: "Xiao Lu, please don't say anything politely. Thank you for being kind. To be honest, Xiao Yang finished playing chess in my place that day, and I didn't sleep well all night. I wish I could come to your treasure land immediately and see where to give birth to such monsters, haha."
Jiang Chenghua, who accompanied him, also nodded with a smile. Xiong Guotao is a Beidou-style figure in the Go world of Ganyuan Province, and his junior chess friends basically hold disciple etiquette to him.
Xiong Guotao continued: "Xiao Qian, Xiao Lu, I basically agree with your judgment on this child. It's not that I don't believe you. I don't feel at ease if I don't come here in person. I want to thank you for yours..."
Hearing his name called, he came from Qiancheng to accompany Qian Jianmin and stood up. Xiong Guotao waved his hand: "I am old now. Over the years, I feel guilty. I have not been able to contribute to Ganyuan's Go. Only Xiao Jiang and the others can take action. Unfortunately, because of this or that reason, the gap with other brother provinces is getting bigger and bigger. To be honest, I was very optimistic about Xiao Jiang's chess talent at that time..."
"Master, I blame myself for not being successful."
"Don't say that it's useless, that's all fate. Hehe, playing Go requires level and opportunity. I'll tell you a brief moment here. If this child is really a Go genius and he is willing to do so, I'll just give up my old face and don't want it. I'll ask the old leaders in the province and go to the capital to ask those old friends, and you can't bury the children."
"Old Bear!"
Several people stood up together and were moved by the old man's passionate heart.
Then several people talked again, and Lu Fanyun introduced some other situations of Li Xiaoqiang. When Li Xiaoqiang arrived, he happened to hear Xiong Guotao's hearty laughter:
"Haha, this child's academic performance is also excellent. I have said a long time ago that learning Go is beneficial to the intellectual development of teenagers..."
Li Xiaoqiang pushed the door and went in.
"Hello grandpa, hello uncle, hello uncle Qian, hello uncle Lu!"
Li Xiaoqiang took the initiative to say hello to the people in the room.
Xiong Guotao carefully observed Li Xiaoqiang in front of him, "On the surface, it looks no different from an ordinary child. He is slightly fat, with big and bright eyes. His eyes are calm, and he is not as shy as an ordinary child who first meets a child. He is neither humble nor arrogant. He can take the initiative to say hello to adults, and can distinguish the order of greetings based on age and familiarity."
"This child's tutoring is so good!" Xiong Guotao sighed in his heart.
Lu Fanyun also introduced the two guests from the provincial capital to Li Xiaoqiang, so he got to know each other again.
"What is your master's name and what does it look like?" Unexpectedly, Xiong Guotao asked this question.
Li Xiaoqiang was shocked, but fortunately he was mentally prepared and told the story he had made up aside.
Xiong Guotao closed his eyes slightly. Li Xiaoqiang laughed in his heart, knowing that the other party was pairing his "master" with domestic experts one by one. Sure enough, after a while, Xiong Guotao opened his eyes: "It seems that I am ignorant. If I have the opportunity to ask a few people in the capital, the people are also crouching tigers and hidden dragons."
Jiang Chenghua took the initiative to walk to Li Xiaoqiang: "Children, can you ask you for a game of Go?"
This was agreed upon by everyone at the beginning. Li Xiaoqiang didn't say anything and looked at Lu Fanyun. Lu Fanyun understood and quickly said, "I have already asked you for leave at school. I have also told your mother about this. Your mother also agreed. Also, we will have dinner together tonight."
Li Xiaoqiang knew the other party’s purpose and didn’t talk nonsense. He said to Jiang Chenghua: “I don’t dare to ask for advice, please!” He walked towards the chessboard that had been prepared long ago.
"please!"
By guessing first, Jiang Chenghua took the lead in the black for 5 sections and quickly set up a "Chinese flow". Li Xiaoqiang deserves two consecutive stars.
The layout of "Chinese Flow" appeared very early. A Sino-Japanese Go competition was held in Japan. Chinese chess players held black to unify this layout, causing a sensation. "Chinese Flow" was named. This is a layout with strong vitality. Until Li Xiaoqiang was reborn, it was one of the most frequently used layouts for professional chess players.
Li Xiaoqiang paused for a moment, and the sixth man added Xiaofei in the star position. Everyone else was a little surprised to see this move, and the opponent even glanced at Li Xiaoqiang. Although this move of Xiaofei could not be said to be a bad chess at that time, it always felt "slow". "Chinese flow" is a fast layout. According to the layout theory at that time, you are fast, so of course I have to limit you first. So when dealing with Chinese flows at that time, they were mainly about catching the corners first. So Li Xiaoqiang's "Xiaofei" step would look very strange in the eyes of the chess players at that time.
After nearly 30 years of development in Go technology, later generations of chess players have obviously understood this ordinary situation more deeply than those of this era. Later generations of research believe that no matter which side I hang, the other party can hang on the other side to form a good shape with two wings spread out. It would be better to retract my fist first to make a decisive blow.
The black chess hangs the corners, and the white chess continues to fly to guard the battle. The black chess is dismantled back, the white chess hangs the corners, and the black guard. The situation of confrontation is soon formed.
Jiang Chenghua's hand stopped, and there were only two choices in the current situation, either the siege or the siege broke through each other. In fact, neither side was sure of this situation. According to the principle of chess, you cannot penetrate the opponent's appearance too early. This way, the opponent is easily attacked by the opponent to destroy his appearance with the trend. Then you should choose to siege each other. Unfortunately, even you can see that the opponent obviously has several good points of intrusion, and you are not sure what you can get in the attack. In the dilemma, Jiang Chenghua chose to siege deeply.
At this time, Li Xiaoqiang's sixth move showed its benefits. Li Xiaoqiang began to attack and entered the opponent's appearance. In a wonderful offensive and defensive battle, Jiang Chenghua showed his superb maneuvering ability. Of course, Li Xiaoqiang's chess also had evidence of advance and retreat, and maintained a slight advantage to enter the stage of the great official.
Jiang Chenghua received more formal and systematic training. When he reached the stage of a high-ranking official, he judged that his situation was a little worse, and he was amazed at the opposite child. However, at this time, he did not think he would lose. A big difference between a professionally trained chess player and an ordinary amateur chess player is that his official chess player is good. In fact, Jiang Chenghua faced other amateur chess players in Ganyuan, basically relying on his solid official skills to win steadily. Unfortunately, he met Li Xiaoqiang.
The two began a long and arduous battle for officials. After dozens of moves, the expressions that had been watching the battle nervously on the side finally relaxed. In the current situation, even Lu Fanyun, the worst-level one, also judged the victory or defeat. Li Xiaoqiang, who was holding white, was leading by 2 or 3 eyes. Jiang Chenghua couldn't believe his eyes. When he entered the stage of the big official, he judged that black chess was leading by 2 or 3 eyes. After deducting the purpose of the post, he fell behind by 2 or 3 eyes. Unexpectedly, during the battle for officials, he actually lost about 5 eyes in the stage of the official. He really couldn't figure it out.
Jiang Fanyun smiled bitterly and placed the two black pieces on the chessboard to admit defeat.
Chapter completed!
