Chapter 242 Eternal Title
At the entrance of a high-end restaurant.
When he saw Hiroshi Chihara get out of the car, Takayuki Sakai walked forward and held his hand tightly.
"Father, why are you out?" asked Tomoki Sakai.
Takayuki Sakai was also excited. Even though he served as the executive director of the Japan Chess Institute for many years, he could not suppress this emotion:
"Thanks to Mr. Chihara! Thanks to Mr. Chihara..."
He repeated this sentence repeatedly, and his joy was beyond words.
In recent years, he has almost given up hope. Unexpectedly, since the beginning of the year, his only descendant has finally figured it out and returned to the road of chess.
And all of this is the credit of the young man in front of him!
Sakai Takayuki's voice was trembling:
"Chenhara, meeting you in Osaka is my greatest blessing! If it weren't for you, I don't know how long it would take for this guy to wake up! Please accept my worship!"
As he said that, he bowed deeply to Qianyuan.
Qianyuan Haozhi quickly helped the other party up and refused:
"The main thing is Mr. Wen Shu's own efforts, otherwise no matter how much others say it, it will be useless..."
Sakai Takayuki finally let him go, shook his head and said:
"There is a slang term in China called 'A word to wake up the dreamer'. I have advised you before, but it has no effect. Qianyuan, this is your credit, so don't refuse!"
Since it was at the entrance of the restaurant, the movements of the three people here have attracted the attention of some people.
Sakai Tomki said:
"Father, Chihara Jun, let's go in first."
"Yes, yes, look at me, this old fool! Qianhara, let's go in and talk!"
Following Sakai Takayuki, Chihara Hiroshi asked:
"When did Mr. Wen Shu pass the award exam?"
The Sakai Toshiki behind him replied:
"It was yesterday."
Then, Takayuki Sakai explained:
"You are going to participate in the Dragon Star War today. I specifically told him not to tell you first.
"Just now, I watched the game on TV in the private room. Chihara, in less than two hours, won another game!"
"Yes," Chihara Hiroshi didn't care much about his own game. "The opponent was not strong, so it ended earlier."
Sakai Takanobu laughed:
"That's right. Although it's eighth-legged, there are many guys who are just like that."
As he said that, he pointed at himself and said:
“Including me.”
Seniors are self-deprecating, but juniors are certainly unable to follow suit. Qianhara Hiroshi did not respond.
However, the three of them quickly arrived at the door of the private room, and Takayuki Sakai stopped talking about this.
When the door was opened, unexpectedly, there was already one person sitting in the private room and another person standing.
The person sitting was an old man who looked about seventy years old, with a slightly hunched back and a crutch on his hand.
A young lady is standing beside the old man, taking care of the old man.
"Senior Onoji, are you not in a hurry?" Sakai Takanobu asked when he entered the door.
"No," the old man looked at Qianyuan at a glance. He was very energetic between his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Is this Qianyuan who has become famous in the Go world since last year?"
Hiroshi Chihara immediately greeted:
"Hello, I'm Hiroshi Chihara."
Takayuki Sakai introduced:
"Chenhara, this is Masahiro Onoji. You may have never heard of it. This name is famous in the Japanese chess world!"
Hiroshi Chihara didn't know what expression to respond, because he had never heard of it.
The old man named "Onoji Masaki" waved his hand and said with a smile:
"Sakura, don't make things difficult for the younger generation. What is my name worth?"
Sakai Takaichi said while greeting Chihara to sit down:
"If you win four eternal titles, it's nothing. Then, someone like me who has been struggling in the Go world for half a lifetime and has not been able to get a title, is really worthless..."
Sakai Tomki sat next to Chihara and explained in a low voice:
"There are seven formulas to fight the chess world like the Go world..."
The seven formulas of Jiangchess are:
Battle of the throne, throne stand, chess holy war, chess king war, battle of the king general war, dragon king war, and celebrity war.
Like the honorary title of Go, if you want to win the eternal title of Ji Qi, you also need to win multiple consecutive victories or accumulate several times, but the requirements for each formula battle are different.
In the history of chess, there are only a handful of chess players who can get four or more eternal titles!
"Although Mr. Onoji has retired for ten years, few people can match his position in the chess world."
Hiroshi Chihara nodded:
If the four eternal titles are replaced by the four honorary titles of Go, they are indeed an extraordinary figure even in the Go world.
Sakai Tomiki quietly looked at the young lady beside the old man and continued to introduce:
"That is the granddaughter of Onodera teacher, Natsue Onodera, a female chess player, who has performed outstandingly in recent years. In a few years, you may become a professional chess player..."
Due to many factors, although Japan's professional chess players do not distinguish between men and women, almost no female chess players can reach the fourth stage of the profession, so a special rank system of "female chess players" was established.
Hiroshi Chihara looked at Sakai Minju beside him, and saw that his eyes were a little strange, he hesitated:
"Mr. Sakai, you and this Miss Onoji..."
Sakai Mushu's face turned red and he quickly denied:
"Qianyuan Jun, I have nothing with her, don't get me wrong..."
His voice became louder, which caused Takayuki Sakai to scold him.
Hiroshi Chihara looked at the lady named "Onoji Natsue". Seeing that she would occasionally glance at him quickly, but obviously she was not looking at him, she couldn't help but think.
The two old people had a great time chatting.
Onoji Masaki said happily:
"At the beginning, Wen Shu was the most talented disciple here. Although I had wasted so many years, I was willing to look back. I heard from Xia Jiang that in the research association, Wen Shu made rapid progress in the past six months, and passing the assessment of the reward association was also expected."
Sakai Takayuki sighed and said:
"After all, it's been wasted more than ten years. If you want to catch up, you need to work harder!
"Senior Onoji, what teachings about this child..."
Onoji Kazuki heard the song and knew the elegance, and immediately said:
"I said you beat around the bush for a long time, and it turned out to be about this. Don't worry, this kid Wen Shu--"
He glanced at Sakai Tomiki before continuing:
"Although I said I had withdrawn from Onoji Dojo ten years ago, I have never dared to see me for more than ten years, I finally remember my old guy's birthday every year and I don't forget to greet him on New Year's Day. I will recognize this disciple for now."
Hiroshi Chihara looked at Minsu Sakai, and the other party's eyes were slightly red, as if he was a little ashamed.
And Takayuki Sakai said:
Chapter completed!
