Go: Is the portable old man the nine-time champion?

Chapter 45 National Team's Attention

"flutter?"

Shu Buque was very confused when he saw Yi Zheng rushing in to die. He said, "If you rush in, can't I just take you away directly?"

Shu Buque subconsciously calculated and then instantly realized that something was wrong.

If you are mentioned after the pounce, then press it out like the first reaction of the original book supplement...

Just a simple change of order, but the result is completely different!
Now the capture below and the capture above are directly combined! White will definitely take one of the two positions! It has directly escaped the danger of being captured!

Shu Buque quickly realized what was happening and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "Brother, that's awesome! A perfectly timed pounce!"

Jin Wan couldn't help but narrow his eyes as he looked at the chess piece he had placed. "Brilliant! Very brilliant! An extremely ingenious move! Perfect timing! There's no better move here!"

Jin Wan took a look at the chess record that was passed to him. As the opponent, Zhan Chen, 7th Dan, only thought of this move!
After this move, the situation was completely revitalized and White turned defeat into victory!

Even Black couldn't find any good way to deal with it. White couldn't say that it had already won, but it also began to gain an advantage.

"Little friend, what do you think will happen next?"

Jin Wan still found it unbelievable that a non-professional could make such a move.

Because this step is a huge test of overall vision and calculation ability, even ordinary professionals may not be able to think of it.

Perhaps this child's thinking is not so perfect, which may be more in line with the level of a young man who is striving for a high level.

Upon hearing this, Yi Zheng went up and laid out his plan: "Black will definitely not raise the bar. They will most likely choose to push all the way. Because at this point, if White moves the other pieces, they can simply stick to it, and the Black piece below will be killed directly. So both sides can only fight for a robbery."

Disaster!
The most critical concept in Go!
Both the black and white players surround one of the other's pieces. In this situation, if it is the white player's turn to play, it can capture a black piece; if it is the black player's turn to play, it can also capture a white piece.

Because this cycle has no solution, the rules stipulate that after you "capture" a piece, the opponent cannot capture it back immediately even if he can. He must first place a piece somewhere else, forcing the opponent to respond. After the opponent responds, he can then capture it back. This is called a ko!

However, not all ko materials will result in the opponent responding. In the case of value judgment and trade-offs, the opponent may not respond to the ko and resolve the ko dispute. "Ko win" is also called "eliminating the ko."

The whole process from starting a ko, raising a ko, looking for a ko, responding to a ko, raising a ko again, to eliminating a ko is called "da ko".

It can be said that ko is the most complex and intense part of Go!

It not only tests the players' overall grasp of the game, but also tests their judgment of local value.

So people often say that as long as there is competition on the field, there will always be changes!
The fight for the piece initiated by Yi Zheng was too heavy for Black!
When Yi Zheng played a move on the top, the black pieces basically did not dare to respond, because once they lost, the black pieces below would suffer heavy casualties, and there would still be another fight for the ko piece above.

"Brilliant!"

Jin Wan couldn't help but admire that Yi Zheng's thinking was coherent and correct. He was not simply knowing the beginning but not the process.

Based on this move, Jin Wan can say that the kid in front of him will definitely be able to reserve a place in this year's professional Go competition!
As long as he doesn't run out to eat barbecue in the middle of the night like his wicked little apprentice and end up in the hospital.

He will even have a place in the future professional Go world!
Jin Wan looked at Yi Zheng, who seemed expressionless, and her eyes flickered slightly. "Is your teacher Lao Ma?"

The old Ma that Jin Wan mentioned is Ma Zhaoxu, the most famous chess player in East China at the same time as him. He has won the Go World Cup and the World Go Individual Championship!

Jin Wan believed that without specialized tutoring, it would be difficult to reach this level before becoming a dan player. Yi Zheng shook his head when he heard this: "I don't have a teacher."

Mr. Ke himself said that his identity cannot be revealed, so Yi Zheng can only tell others that he is a genius.

After all, even if you tell the truth, others will probably just think you are a schizophrenic genius?

"No teacher? Okay, let's take a photo first."

Jin Wan's eyes moved slightly but he didn't say much. He just put one hand on the shoulders of Yi Zheng and Shu Buque and took a photo together.

Because they used a Polaroid camera, the photo came out instantly, and Jin Wan, the 9th dan, also signed the photo and gave it to the two people.

Shu Buque was extremely excited! It wasn't just an ordinary autograph, but an autograph for a group photo!
After sending the two people down, Jin Wan handed the remaining photo to the person next to him, then whispered a few words and returned to the stage to continue his explanation.

After greeting Shu Buque, Yi Zheng went to the toilet nearby.

Mr. Ke whistled beside him and said, "Does it seem like this old man wants to take you in as his apprentice?"

"what?"

Mr. Ke said confidently, "Otherwise, why would he ask who your teacher is? He must be after you! It's just not right to ask right then and there. If the poaching fails, it would be embarrassing."

Yi Zheng: "Really? But it doesn't matter. Even if he asked me to be his disciple right then and there, I probably wouldn't agree."

If such an opportunity had come to Yi Zheng in the past, it would have felt like a godsend. After all, a ninth-level master is something you can only come across by chance, let alone one with a title.

But the situation is completely different now. Having one more teacher will be a greater burden for Yi Zheng.

There is not enough time to study with Mr. Ke every day, so why bother finding another person? It’s a pure waste of time.

Not to mention the gap in chess thinking and logic that Yi Zheng has learned now, which may not be accepted by others.

There is even a high probability that this will be regarded as a detour, forcing Yi Zheng to go back.

Hearing this, Old Ke shook his head. The young man was still too young. "Are you good at chess? What's the point of knowing how to play chess? To get ahead in life, you need power and connections. What kind of business are you in?"

Mr. Ke's words were really heartfelt. In his opinion, to some extent, they were lessons learned through blood and tears.

When you are at your peak, everyone will naturally praise you, but when you can no longer bring value to others, even if you are not abandoned, you will only be a pawn that can be exchanged for other people's interests.

Therefore, you cannot be a chess piece, you must be the chess player!
"My name is Yi Zheng. If you like, you can call me Brother Yi. I can handle it."

It was impossible for the young Yi Zheng to think so much, he just arrogantly said his new nickname, Big Brother.

Mr. Ke: "So he's a little scoundrel."

After washing his hands, Yi Zheng looked at Mr. Ke's reflection in the mirror and said, "Oh right, after that pounce. If it were you, what would you do in that situation?"
