Li Xiangping ended Li's winning streak in the "Nongxin Cup", which attracted a new wave of bragging from the media:

"...Excellent performance, a refreshing victory. In the just-concluded "Nongxin Cup" China-South Korea main general showdown, Li Xiangping defeated South Korean iron main general Li Canghao, and he helped the Chinese team win the Nongxin Cup for the first time..."

"......Li Xiangping won again! In the just-concluded "Nongxin Cup" decisive game, Chinese young player Li Xiangping showed his superb skills, and his wonderful performance was amazing..."

"......'This doesn't look like a level contest at all!'------ The author quotes a famous person in the Go world who doesn't want to be named..."

Well, the above are just conventional flattery and seem to be small. The way to praise is really more exaggerated, more innovative, and more large-scale flattery is like this:

"......The "Nongxin Cup" has come to an end. Li Xiangping defeated Li Canghao without expectation. Although the ending was as expected, the meaning behind it was extraordinary, because this game of chess officially announced: Li Xiangping ruled the world!"

"...... No matter how you render it, it will look pale, no matter how you praise it, it will appear powerless. The author can only say: It may take many years to see the meaning of this game of chess.---- When you look back after a few years, you may find that this game of epoch-making! This is a watershed, because this game of chess is likely to directly split Go into two eras..."

On the second day after the competition, in the room where Huating Hotel was staying, Li Xiangping smiled and leaned back and forth after seeing such an article on the Internet:

"Hahaha, Brother Ding'an, do you think it's so exaggerated? These reporters are so bold that they even made up the rhetoric of "epoch-making" by them."

The plug-in replied: "Hehe, Xiangping, if you only consider this game, you deserve it. This game is really amazing. Anyway, Ding'an is definitely not as good as it is."

Li Xiangping laughed again: "Ha, Brother Ding'an, you know that this is the only game..."

The same thing is said, although Li Xiangping is a little more playboy, he is still a self-aware playboy.

Take the game that just ended for example. Of course, Li Xiangping was also very satisfied with his performance and was happy to help the Chinese team win the final championship. But he actually knew in his heart that such performance should not be his norm.

How to say it? Just like who doesn’t eat dumplings during the Chinese New Year?

Which professional chess player has not yet performed well?

Of course, although you know that you may be performing at a super level, Li Xiangping is still very happy. After all, no matter what, if you want to perform at a super level, you must have such a foundation and foundation, right?

For example, if a 3-level player performs above the level, he may play 5-level chess, but on the other hand, if a person can play 5-level chess, he must be 3-level 4-level chess, right? You can't expect a K-level chess player to play 5-level chess player.

"Brother Ding'an, let me ask you, if yesterday's performance... I emphasize again that I am just saying assumptions. If yesterday's level can become our normal state, then do you think we can fight with the machines of future generations?"

After thinking for a while, Lao Shi replied, "But there is no answer to this, but Ding'an thought that with your level yesterday, if you face the strongest machine in the future, there should be no chance. However, if you compete with the first generation of machines, it is...."

"But what is it?"

"But there should be some chance. Although we may still be at a disadvantage, we are definitely not without the strength to resist."

When Li Xiangping heard this, he became interested: "Why did Brother Ding'an say that?"

"My friend Xiangping, you are only in this mountain. Now let me talk about my feelings about watching the battle yesterday. First of all, I have to admit that your skills were indeed excellent yesterday and have exceeded the normal level of Ding'an. However, after your moves appeared on the chessboard, I can still understand the meaning. However, the strongest machine in later generations, some of the moves it made, even if it has appeared on the chessboard, and we have even seen the subsequent moves, but now we are still confused."

Li Xiangping fell silent. At this time, some "high-level dog tricks" from three generations of dogs flashed through his mind one by one.

Indeed, for these seemingly illogical chess, you don’t know how they came from, and you can’t figure out their secrets. In this case, it is certainly nonsense to want to fight with others.

Fortunately, Li Xiangping is an optimistic person. At this time, he automatically ignored the problem of the third generation of dogs and asked about the situation of the first generation of dogs:

"Haha Brother Ding'an, I heard what you said. Although there are still many situations in the third generation of dogs, the first generation of dogs is fine?"

After thinking quietly for a while, he chuckled:

"Haha, I don't know if it's because of too few samples. In short, among the more than 200 chess scores in the first generation machine, I really haven't seen any better chess than yesterday, so I really want to congratulate you on my friend Xiangping."

"Haha, we will make progress together..."

Li Xiangping was happy after hearing what his plug-in said.

Indeed, the greatest fear of human beings actually comes from the unknown. Just like the third generation of dogs, for Li Xiangping and Lao Shi today, no, it should be said that for "Li Xiangping and Lao Shi", it is still "unfathomable". Since you can't even find out what others' foundation, what confidence do you have to compete with them?

But one generation of dogs is different. According to what Lao Shi said just now, at least he thinks: after such a long effort, the two should have reached the bottom of the dogs.

This is of course of great significance.

Let Li Xiangping see hope.

Although Li Xiangping was very clear in his heart: letting humans face head-on with machines has inherent defects, such as humans still have emotions, so there are still unstable performance, and humans may also make miscalculation mistakes.

But to be honest, Li Xiangping is not really worried about this, because he never thought of trying to beat the dog alone. Isn’t this a combination of two swords with Lao Shi?

Speaking of the combination of two swords----in fact, many practical activities of human beings have long proved that, for example, if you only have one accountant, then no matter how careful the accountant is or how high the level is, mistakes are always inevitable.

But what if you add a cashier? Of course, it doesn’t mean that two people will not make mistakes. However, if the two people can really cooperate seriously, most of the time, they can actually reduce the probability of mistakes to an ignored level.

Since he thought of "the combination of two swords", Li Xiangping suddenly remembered another thing:

"By the way, Brother Ding'an, how many games have you used for the 15 games this year?"

Lao Shi smiled bitterly: "My friend Xiangping, do you have the nerve to say, "You said I only played a few games of chess?"

"Ha ha ha ha......"

Li Xiangping smiled again and leaned back and forth:

"I said Brother Ding'an, can you blame me? Who made you suffer for yourself..."

Li Xiangping calculated it in his mind, and he found that so far, Lao Shi's quota has just been used for 5 plates.

The first set was the old tricks in the Fujitsu Cup final last year, which was considered to be a single game. In addition, the "Chunlan Cup" and the one that made him enjoy the game at a time, only one third of the game was used to play.

Thinking of a year and a half ago, when I was frowning for his 15-game quota and racked my brains to think about how to arrange it, Li Xiangping felt like a different life.

To be honest, until now, Li Xiangping suspected that his plug-in was lying, "his embroidered girl told him that he could only make 15 plates a year", etc. This may be nothing but nonsense. It is entirely possible that Lao Shi said this on purpose, with the purpose of encouraging himself to work hard to improve.

Of course, Li Xiangping's current state of mind is completely different from that two years ago.

Especially since he has won two heavyweight champions in a row recently, even if Old Shiming told him: This 15-game quota and other nonsense is a lie, then Li Xiangping will not blame his plug-in.

Because Li Xiangping can imagine that without the limit of the 15-frame quota, his level would not have been able to reach this level.

In addition, if there is no such restriction, even if Lao Shi helps him win many championships, he will at most enjoy the pleasure of pretending and cannot enjoy the present, because he has won the chess with his own hands, the happiness that is transparent to his heart.

It is precisely because of this state of mind that to be honest, Li Xiangping now doesn't care about the 15-frame quota at all. He just takes into account his face as a cheat, so it is difficult to force him to ask who is true and who is false. Everything should be considered true.

And he suddenly remembered this thing today, of course it was not because of anything else, it was because he just thought of the future dog fighting and the "combination of two swords".

Since you want to combine the two swords, of course it is impossible to just let Lao Shi play chess online.

"Haha, Brother Ding'an, aren't it still a few months? Let's try to use up these ten rounds of quotas in these few months..."

So next, Li Xiangping began to plan for the next season's game.

After thinking about it carefully, Li Xiangping found that there are quite a lot of games next season.

First of all, international events: "Samsung Cup", "LG Cup", "Fujitsu Cup" and "Nongxin Cup", these four events are unstoppable every year.

In addition, this year is the Olympics in 2004, so there is still a "Yingshi Cup" that will be held every four years this year.

In addition, the "Toyota Cup" that is once every two years has not been suspended, and this year it has reached the second.

The "Chunlan Cup" that is also available every two years may also have to be played in a few sets this year, but the championship will be decided until next year.

Compared with international competitions, Li Xiangping participated in a domestic competition. In addition to the League, there is only a "celebrity battle". However, since the "celebrity battle" is a challenge system, as the defending "celebrity", as long as Li Xiangping participates in the final challenge, it will definitely be the second half of the year.

"......oh! Although there are many competitions, it's not easy to arrange for the first half of the year. This way, Brother Ding'an. There is also a TV fast chess competition in the first half of the year. Didn't you say that your countdown training is not enough? Otherwise, let's count this game this year..."

Just as Li Xiangping discussed these things with his plug-in, the doorbell rang.

Li Xiangping went over to open the door, then smiled and said:

"Uncle, brother, you guys are here..."
Chapter completed!
