Chapter 244 The Executioner That Gets Much Attention
Li Changmin won the first world championship in his life at the age of seventeen, to be precise, sixteen years and six months.
Whether in international or domestic events, he used his championships to break people's imagination of him.
Especially in the Japanese chess world!
Since the beginning of modern Go, Japan has ruled for more than half a century as a traditional power.
In the 1980s, Chinese chess players represented by Nie Shuping gradually rose, but their style was learned from Japan and had no obvious advantage in the performance compared to Japan's top-notch chess players.
But the rise of the Korean chess world is completely different!
Very suddenly!
After the first Yingshi Cup, with Cao Xunzhe unexpectedly winning the championship, the Korean chess player suddenly played morphine and achieved success in the international arena.
Especially Cao Xunzhe and Li Changmin, the master and apprentice!
Moreover, unlike Chinese chess players, most Korean chess players are not the mainstream "Benge Sect" in Japan, nor are they the traditional cognitive "Strong War Sect". Perhaps, they are a bit like the mutated "Strong War Sect"-
Many styles have been derived from this, and they all have one thing in common, which is their persistence in victory!
Every player who has played against a Korean chess player can clearly feel this.
The appearance of Li Changmin made people in the Japanese chess industry even more alert:
Although this person is less than 20 years old, he is different from ordinary Korean chess players. He has a very comprehensive technique, is very mature in chess, has extremely accurate calculations, and is even more excellent in official kung fu!
Being young means longer and longer in peak periods;
Comprehensive technology means few weaknesses and it is difficult to target strategically.
Since Li Changmin participated in the world event, even facing Japan's top chess players, his record advantage has been overwhelming.
As long as the Japanese chess players noticed this, they were all worried!
Although the appearance of Hiroshi Chihara is quite controversial, it also gives some hope:
They are about the same age, even one year younger, and they both won the game against the two of the "Six Super League"!
In their opinion, after the ‘Liu Chao’ grows old, this is the hope of confrontation!
Therefore, many people are paying attention to the Dragon Star Battle he is participating in, including the Chinese and Korean chess world...
...
Inside the Chinese Chess Academy, Ma Yingchun was leading a group of teenagers to watch the live broadcast on the screen.
"Teacher Ma, how did you get the live broadcast of Japan TV?" asked a middle-aged man next to him.
Ma Yingchun glanced at him:
The other party's name is Liu Yiguang, and he is also a nine-dan chess player in the Chinese Chess Academy. However, although the age difference between the two parties is not big, the other party's forehead is already visible to the naked eye.
"I asked the leader for instructions. After all, Hiroshi Chihara is a chess player we have been paying attention to for a long time, and the dean also tried his best."
Liu Yiguang nodded and said:
"That's true. I remember that last time Li Changmin had a game, you also gathered these children together, because you wanted them to see the gap."
Ma Yingchun glanced at the young men below, and they all scratched their ears and looked extremely excited.
He deliberately amplified the sound a little:
"I think the one I have selected from all over the country is the pride of heaven? A joke! Let you see how big the gap between you and your peers is!"
Hearing these bad tone, the teenagers immediately fell silent.
Of course, there are also whispers:
"Song Rui, do you think this can be compared? The coach himself may not be his opponent, but he also said we?"
Another boy lowered his head and whispered:
"The coach is right. We are indeed about the same age, but they are already competing in the top professional events..."
"We both talk about two things!"
"Oh," the boy was silent for a while, and couldn't help but say, "Yu Xiao, you said there is a Li Changmin in South Korea and a Chihara Haozhi in Japan. When can we produce such a person?"
Yu Xiao rolled his eyes:
"You really have no ambitions, aren't we all?"
Song Rui knew that his best friend was not in tune with him, so he didn't answer his words, but asked:
"You said, is it possible for Teacher Nie's disciple Chang Hao?"
Yu Xiao thought about it carefully for the first time before answering:
"I haven't heard from Senior Brother Chang Hao for a long time, but I heard from other senior brothers that Senior Brother Chang Hao is quite strong. Our younger generation is probably the strongest, but it should be a little worse than people like Li Changmin and Qianyuan Haozhi, right?"
Song Rui thought:
"I remember that Hiroshi Chihara should be seventeen years old this year, and Senior Brother Chang Hao should be seventeen years old. I don't know if these two have a chance to compete?"
Yu Xiao patted his shoulder and said carelessly:
"Don't worry, there will definitely be a chance in the future, but to be honest, I am more looking forward to the showdown between Chihara Hiroshi and Li Changmin..."
...
And in Seoul, the capital of South Korea on the peninsula, there is a two-story villa.
Cao Xunzhe put down the chess piece and said with a smile:
"Changmin, I lost."
Li Changmin's face turned slightly red. After saying "Thank you for your advice from Master", he began to quickly clean up the chessboard.
Looking at the disciple who was a little different from usual, Cao Xunzhe said curiously:
"Changmin, is there anything you have to do?"
Li Changmin blushed and said respectfully:
"There was a match between Japan's Dragon Star Battle this morning, and I want to see it."
Cao Xunzhe also often paid attention to the news from Japan. He immediately understood and said:
"Is it the chess player named Hiroshi Chihara?"
Li Changmin said "yes".
Cao Xunzhe opened the folding fan and said while slapping the wind:
"I didn't expect you to pay so much attention to that chess player. This is also a good thing. That Chihara Hiroshi is indeed interesting."
Li Changmin nodded and said:
"He is not very different from the mainstream in the Japanese chess world. In his game, I often find unexpected tricks, which are very strong!"
Hearing this evaluation from his usual taciturn disciple, Cao Xunzhe also became interested and said:
"Don't go home. I can also find the signals from Japanese TV stations here. Let's go and have a look!"
"Yes, Master!"
Li Changmin smiled...
...
In the fifth floor game room of Japan's Chess Academy, Hiroshi Chihara closed his eyes and quietly waited for the start of the game.
Today is the sixth round. As long as you win this round, even if you are finished in the seventh round, he will definitely qualify as the "most winner in Group D".
However, his ambitions are more than that!
Opposite him is his opponent today, named Anno Daisei, who is the eight-dan chess player in the Japan Chess Academy, ranking sixth in Group D.
Seeing the opponent's tender face remaining, to be honest, Anno was a little panicked:
There are quite a lot of eight-day chess players in the Japan Chess Academy. Although he is not the second most powerful, he can only be considered to be at the mid-level.
