Chapter 468 The God of Go
The weird rules proposed by Su Zhe really shocked everyone.
The water friends in the live broadcast room were all shocked:
[I am reminded of the World Chess Boxing Tournament (WCBO). One round of boxing and one round of chess. No matter who loses, you will be declared a loser immediately. It is a comprehensive test of body and mind. 】
[But the problem is that the opponents in boxing and chess remain the same! 】
[Su Zhe is playing Go with the chess master, and playing All-A Fighting with the Japanese national team! His opponent only needs to concentrate on one thing. 】
[I couldn’t understand it, but I was shocked. If Su Zhe wins, he will be my god! 】
Zhan Lao spoke very smoothly, but even he became stammering:
"Su Zhe, are you kidding?"
Su Zhe smiled and suddenly asked:
"How high is the face-slimming special effect in your live broadcast room?"
"Huh?" Mr. Zhan was stunned.
Su Zhe moved closer to the camera and said helplessly:
"In your lens, my face has been slimmed down into a deformity."
When the water friends discovered that this was indeed the case, they burst out laughing:
[Hahaha, Su Zhe is right, he looks so scary when he slims down his face. 】
[This is the difference between celebrities and Internet celebrities. 】
[Normally, Internet celebrities use beauty products together and seem to be as beautiful as celebrities, but when they are in the same frame as celebrities, they are exposed. 】
[Hahaha, Mr. Zhan, you still say you have no beauty? 】
Mr. Zhan was so anxious that he hurriedly explained. Words like "slimming the face does not count as beautifying" came out one after another, and the live broadcast room was filled with a happy atmosphere.
So no one asked about Su Zhe's arrangements.
He wasn't kidding of course, but there was no need to keep stressing it.
Soon, three chess masters arrived. Su Zhe directly prepared three chess boards and played chess with the three of them at the same time.
Except for the audience in Zhan Lao's live broadcast room who knew in advance, the Japanese audience were all shocked:
[Su Zhe is not playing in a round-robin game, but playing against three chess masters at the same time? 】
【Too arrogant! So outrageous! love it! Really handsome. 】
【I breathed a sigh of relief. With the level at which he allowed his two pieces to defeat the Kawada chess master, even in a round-robin battle, he would probably win completely. Now that he is so arrogant, the three chess masters have a chance to defeat him. 】
The three chess masters also had this idea and acquiesced.
But this time there was no handicap, and Su Zhe guessed first with the three others.
Each has its own victory or defeat. Su Zhe has to play black and white in different chess games. The audience just watched and felt confused.
However, Su Zhe played chess very quickly, as if he didn't need to think.
But the expressions of the three chess masters became more and more serious, their moves became slower and slower, and they continued to take long tests.
So much so that when Su Zhe played three games of chess at the same time, he still had some time to spare and acted with ease.
【I am not wrong, right? Su Zhe had the upper hand in all three games? 】
【I can't accept it! This must be a special effect! 】
It was difficult for Japanese audiences to accept it.
On the contrary, Li Jiuduan and Zhan Lao were present. As professional chess players, they were very sure:
"Su Zhe has the upper hand!"
"His chess moves are so weird!"
Mr. Zhan rolled his eyes and saw that Li Jiuduan had not yet challenged Su Zhe, so he simply walked over and said in proficient Korean:
"Hello Li Jiuduan, I am Zhan Duan, a Chinese chess player. I am broadcasting live. Many chess players in China are watching the live broadcast. Let's teach chess to our friends in the live broadcast room together?"
She has trained in baseball country for many years and speaks Korean fluently.
Li Jiuduan was stunned for a moment, but immediately agreed readily.
The two began to play chess and talk about chess, and Li Jiuduan immediately showed his chess ability far surpassing that of Zhan Lao.
When predicting the moves of the three chess masters, Li Jiuduan could guess most of them correctly. If there were some inconsistencies, he would also explain the reasons. To the audience in the live broadcast room, it seemed that the moves were better than those of the three chess masters.
As for Mr. Zhan’s prediction... can Yingzhi understand it firsthand?
The water friends laughed so hard:
【What a gap! They are all professional chess players, why is there such a big gap in chess playing? 】
Mr. Zhan was very angry:
[If there was no gap, wouldn’t I be the best in the world? 】
When Li Jiuduan heard her translated words, he shook his head and said very sincerely:
"Not counting honors, just looking at strength. I'm afraid Su Zhe is the best in the world."
As soon as his words came out, Mr. Zhan was stunned.
The audience was stunned.
Domestic professional chess players who were watching the live broadcast were also shocked.
Even though Li Jiuduan's pure strength can hardly be said to be the best in the world, he personally admitted that Su Zhe, a star who has never been a Go player and has never been a Go player, is the best Go player?
This is too exaggerated!
The live broadcast room exploded.
As for everyone in the Go circle discussing among themselves, it was actually difficult to refute Li Jiuduan's words.
A layman might refute the argument that Su Zhe has no championship and the number of chess games is too few.
After all, they don't understand chess, they can only understand the number of championships, and they can only rely on counting to evaluate historical status and strength.
But real professional chess players can appreciate Su Zhe's powerful chess skills from the chess game——
That was a level beyond its time.
Just like a person who runs 100 meters in eight seconds in a school sports meeting, even if he does not have an Olympic champion, he is still the first sprinter.
[Master Su, were you the number one in the chess world? 】
【Just today, just today! 】
[He is skilled in chess and swordsmanship. Is he also the best in the world in swordsmanship? 】
[Although he can kill the Japanese Sword Master instantly, his record is too small, so it is difficult to be sure. 】
There was an explosion in the live broadcast room, but Li Jiuduan and Mr. Zhan were very calm:
They can see such an obvious thing.
But there are also things they can’t see—
Su Zhe's move.
The two people were very different when predicting the moves of the Japanese chess master, but they came to the same conclusion when predicting Su Zhe - they were both wrong.
The live broadcast room was confused:
[So neither of them could see through Su Zhe's chess moves? ]
[Could it be that the gap between Li Jiudan and Su Zhe is greater than the gap between Zhan Lao and Li Jiudan? ]
[In front of Su Zhe, chess players are equal - anyway, they can't beat him. ]
As he made predictions, Li Jiudan fell silent, shook his head and sighed:
"I really can't guess it, but every move can prove that it was a god's move after the fact, even after dozens of moves."
His eyes were full of confusion.
In Go, making a god's move and creating a famous game is a beautiful memory that is enough to remember all living beings.
Even the game may be passed down and become a node that promotes the development of Go, and be famous in the history of Go for thousands of years.
That's why it's called "God's move", this is God's favor!
But in Su Zhe's hands, the god's move seems to have become the norm, and every move is so amazing.
"Is he a god?"
Li Jiudan shook his head, but Zhan Lao said the same thing:
"Is Su Zhe the god in charge of Go in ancient Greece?"
This is a hot online meme (the god in charge of xx in ancient Greece), but it is very strange when applied to Go. Some netizens corrected him:
[Ancient Greece? We are also one of the four ancient civilizations! ]
[Go is from China, so he should be the god in charge of Go in China. ]
[That's the God of Go! ]
At this time, Su Zhe strolled in front of the live camera and saw these comments, and hurriedly said modestly:
"You are flattering me! I am just a wild way, thinking about it by myself, and I am not a chess god."
Zhan Lao: ...
Li Jiudan: "What did Su Zhe say?"
Zhan Lao translated: "He said he is a chess god."
Su Zhe: ? ? ?
"Big face, I understand Korean!"
Zhan rolled his eyes. After meeting Su Zhe, he was no longer enchanted by him. He no longer regarded him as a perfect but distant idol. He said speechlessly:
"Su Chess God, don't pretend to be modest. Now everyone can see that your chess skills are unparalleled in the world. Even Li Jiudan admits that he is not as good as you."
Su Zhe glanced at Li Jiudan and smiled:
"I am not in this track. Don't compare with me. It will only cause trouble."
Zhan knew that Su Zhe was about to stop playing chess. Even if he played two games in private, he would not participate in Go competitions publicly. He was indeed no longer on the same track with all the chess players, and there would be no competition.
But even if he did not participate in the competition, he would be there, standing at the top of the chess world, staring at the people climbing the mountain from afar.
In the future, the chess world will fight for the second place in the world.
Zhan Lao looked at Su Zhe, who had a leisurely expression, then at the three Japanese chess masters with solemn expressions, and finally at Li Jiudan, who had become silent, and suddenly remembered his desperate chess learning career.
She was also a genius. She could beat the so-called amateur Go masters when she was very young, so she devoted herself to the professional chess world.
She worked hard for nearly ten years, gambled on her own future, and even her whole family sacrificed for her, accompanied her to travel around to learn chess, and even went to South Korea, which made her successfully become a professional chess player.
And those peers who learned chess with her also gambled everything, but because of their slightly worse talents and even slightly worse luck, they could only leave sadly, and had no chance to become a professional, and could only become amateur masters.
She was already one of the few lucky ones who had walked across the single-plank bridge, but when she became a professional chess player, she found that the professional world was even more cruel.
Failure, losing in a row, watching her peers soar to the sky, watching the younger generation catch up step by step.
She finally understood: there is always a mountain higher than another, and the so-called genius is nothing but a mediocre person in front of a greater genius.
She waded through the sea of mediocrity, reconciled with herself, and accepted that she could only stand at the bottom of the mountain and watch the great chess players in the chess world shine like stars.
But now, the person standing on the top of the mountain - Li Jiudan, has also encountered a higher mountain.
A chess god who has not received professional go education, has no master, and has walked out another path on his own - Su Zhe!
At this moment, as a Chinese, Zhan Lao was happy for Su Zhe, happy that he was a "god of chess" and belonged to the ancient country that created go.
But as a "mediocre person" struggling forward step by step, she can better understand the feelings of the three Japanese chess masters and Li Jiudan.
She felt the helplessness and despair again:
"Genius, damn it."
Su Zhe was right next to her, of course he heard her sigh, was silent for a moment, stretched out his hand and rubbed her big face:
"If there is an opponent that can never be defeated, don't we keep moving forward? Is our effort meaningless? It's not like that."
After the emergence of AI, human Go seems to have lost its meaning.
All chess players are imitating AI, and there is no longer a unique chess path and style.
The chess is like the person? Not anymore.
And no matter how much the chess players imitate, they can never beat AI. Even the latest AI can make two pieces beat the top human chess player, a certain cupping king.
But the chess players are still going on, and the chess world is still going on.
Even if you can never beat AI, moving forward is still meaningful.
Su Zhe wants to convey this spirit to the chess players in this world.
But in the eyes of the netizens:
[Fuck, even if you can never beat me, moving forward is still meaningful! Too pretentious, too domineering. 】
[Confidence and domineering with a hint of humanistic care, it's really too Su. ]
Zhan Lao blushed...
Because he was pinched.
"It hurts! Idol, let go!"
"It feels good." After Su Zhe stopped, he saw a Japanese chess master making a move, and walked over calmly, and found that even after a long consideration, it was still very bad.
In his previous life, a top chess player (Lee Sedol) said that before the emergence of AI, he had many proud famous games and made many wonderful moves.
But after the emergence of AI, he fed the chess game to AI and found that no matter whether it was himself or his opponent, after making a move, the winning rate would be reduced by 10% (which means it was very bad).
It can be said that "chickens peck at each other".
But that was already the peak of chess players at that time.
So when Su Zhe saw the move of the Japanese chess master, he really didn't feel any pressure. With a casual move, he made the chess masters fall into a downtime again-continue to think for a long time.
This even gave him time to take care of Zhan Lao's live broadcast and come over to say a few words from time to time.
Everyone can see that it is only a matter of time before the three Japanese chess masters lose. They have no hope of a comeback. They just don't resign because they shoulder the dignity of Japan.
At this moment, Li Jiudan suddenly said:
"Su Zhe, can we play a game?"
Su Zhe was a little surprised.
He is not in the Go circle, so he doesn't care about the title of "No. 1".
He even doesn't want to compete for these honors because he respects the sweat of chess players.
If Li Jiudan doesn't challenge, he will never take the initiative to propose it, just to prove his chess skills.
He is not that kind of person. Even if he challenges the Japanese chess masters, it is just to prevent Japan from blackening him in return.
But Li Jiudan knew that he was about to be banned, but still challenged him, which made him a little puzzled:
"Li Jiudan, have you thought about it?"
Li Jiudan nodded seriously:
"I have to see the top of the mountain, otherwise I will regret it for the rest of my life."
For this, even if he loses the false title of No. 1, it is worth it.
Su Zhe seemed to see the sword maniac and martial arts maniac in him.
He was silent for a moment, and saw Li Jiudan took the initiative to take out the chessboard. He didn't care that he might lose face in front of all the audience, but he reached out to stop him:
"Let's do it in private. I will play a game with you and won't announce the result."
Su Zhe is a man and respects other men.
Zhan Lao's eyes lit up and he was eager to try.
Su Zhe glanced at her and nodded:
"Everyone who sees it will have a chance. I will play a game with you."
"Yeah!"
Zhan Lao was very excited and just wanted to celebrate when he heard Su Zhe add:
"If you lose, you will be pinched on the face."
"Ah?" Zhan Lao was worried, "Will it be pinched even bigger?"
The audience in the live broadcast room saw Li Jiudan's persistence, Su Zhe's understanding, and Zhan Lao's...
They were immediately moved:
[Li Jiudan deserves respect! I would rather die than hear the truth in the morning! ]
[Su Zhe also deserves respect! Although he is a genius with countless powerful skills, he never uses them to show off or to elevate himself. If he is not forced to do so, he will not even show them. 】
【And as a genius, he can actually understand and respect ordinary people. I admire you! 】
【Wait, isn't Mr. Zhan worthy of respect? 】
Mr. Zhan showed an expectant expression, waiting for the fans to praise her together, and to form a group of three friends with high moral character, plum, orchid, and bamboo, with Su Zhe and Li Jiuduan.
As a result, the barrage said:
【Mr. Zhan... has a really big face! 】
【It should feel good to pinch it! 】
Mr. Zhan: ? ? ?
"I won't broadcast it anymore. It hurts my self-esteem!"
