When did your father start paying attention to online Go?
Ta Yaliang knew a little bit about online Go. A student named "Hegu" in the chess academy once mentioned it in the chess academy.
According to the other party's description, as long as you have a computer, you can communicate with chess players from all over the world on the Internet. Although the level of online chess players varies, there are still masters.
However, this "master" is only relative to amateur chess players. Real professional chess players basically do not play chess online.
Firstly, this is because professional chess players are usually very busy and do not have the time or energy to play chess online.
Secondly, because the level of online chess players varies, it is difficult for professional chess players to play a training role online.
Therefore, Ta Yaliang only knows about online Go and does not pay too much attention to it.
What he never expected was that his father would become interested in online Go.
Not only that, my father also reviewed it with a serious face.
"Just in time, you should come and take a look. This game of chess is very valuable. The two players are definitely not unknown people."
Tayaliang was even more surprised when he heard this. It was not easy to get such a comment from his father.
He wanted to take a closer look.
Snapped!
Snapped!
Taya Xingyang continued to play with the chessboard, and the chess pieces continued to extend on the chessboard.
On the other side, Tayashi sat opposite his father and carefully looked at the chess game in front of him.
hiss!
After careful observation, Ta Yaliang couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, which contributed a small amount to global warming.
Just like what my father said, this game of chess... this game of chess... is definitely not something that amateur chess players can play.
The two sides, black and white, are at each other's throats, and the two sides have obviously entered into a fierce mid-game battle. However, who is better and worse is still unknown.
Black's side clearly has the shadow of Chinese Go, and the opening few moves vaguely resemble some kind of Chinese Go formula, but this formula is a bit old, and Taya Ryo couldn't recognize it for a while.
After all, the more ancient the game of Go, the better. Many of the formulas of modern Go are inherited and developed from ancient Go.
‘How can someone still use such an ancient formula?’
'Huh!'
'wrong!'
'Why does White's style look familiar?'
'The sharpness of this show and the offensive in the middle game are like...just like...'
'No!'
'It can't be him!'
'Absolutely impossible!'
Taiya Ryo could vaguely see the shadow of 'Shindo' in the white chess style, but when he thought of Shindo Hikaru's performance in the middle school student Go championship, he immediately rejected this guess.
'Although Shindo is powerful, his dominance is definitely not as strong as that shown by White.'
'But what's with White's showmanship?'
'Could this person be Shindo's teacher?'
'By the way, since my father knows about this chess game, with his connections, he must know the identities of both parties, right?'
'Why don't you just ask your father?'
Thinking of this, Ta Yanliang took advantage of Ta Yan's chess game to ask the doubts in his heart.
"Father, do you know who the two sides in this game of chess are?"
Tayan Xingyang folded his hands on his chest, silently watching the chess game in front of him, frowning slightly, as if he didn't hear Tayan Liang's question.
For a long time, Taya Xingyang relaxed his brows slightly, and then replied.
"I don't know. The record of this chess game was brought over by Ashihara. According to him, this game caused a lot of waves on the Internet. Many people are looking for the true identities of both sides."
"But there is almost no gain. So far, the understanding of these two chess players is limited to knowing their online names."
"The white chess piece is a chess player named 'Sai'. According to the opponent's naming method, this chess player should be from R country."
"The black chess piece is a chess player named 'g'. This chess player's name is obviously named after the Chinese pinyin. Not surprisingly, he is most likely from China."
(PS: There is a slight difference in the timeline between the TV series version of Chess Soul and the animated version of Chess Soul. At the beginning of the drama version, Chu Ying disappeared directly for six o'clock, and returned again in 2003, when 'time' had already started high school.
.
Here, Little Star has changed the timeline, and everything is subject to the animated version.)
'Don't even my father know?'
Hearing this result, Tayan Liang couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but soon he had no time to think about it, and saw Tayan Xingyang's finger falling on the lower left corner of the chessboard.
"Xiao Liang, look here, this is White's seventh move. He directly clicked on Black's three-three. Does this move feel familiar to you?"
"Is this the seventh hand?"
Because he missed the opening, Ryo Tayashi didn't notice Sansan's move. He thought it was coming in the middle of the game.
"Well, that's right."
Ta Ya brightly stared at the lower left corner of the chessboard.
The opening point is three and three, which is the favorite opening pattern of 'Dusan', even though 'Dusan' is very strong, and may even be as good as his father.
Thinking of this, Ta Yaliang couldn't help but raise his head slightly and glanced at his father.
Regarding the result of the last game, he really wanted to know.
But my father never said anything and there was nothing he could do.
Closer to home, it is an indisputable fact that ‘Duke’ is very strong, but very few people in the Go world of R country know about him.
Because 'Duke' has not participated in any amateur events held in country R, nor has he even been to the chess academy.
And my father just mentioned that Bai Qi is probably from R country.
It is not difficult to see from the naming rules that ‘Sai’ is the Roman pinyin pronunciation, and ‘Sai’ is most likely the pronunciation of a person’s name.
This rather 'weird' pronunciation, if converted into Japanese, happens to be the same as the word 'Sawei' in Japanese.
Of course, this is just Ta Yaliang's personal inference. The pronunciation of "sai" alone is obviously not enough to prove that "sai" is from R country.
The 'sai' chess style is an important basis for Ta Yanliang's judgment. Apart from the people from R country, there are probably very few people who can play such a pure 'show style' Go.
Assuming that ‘sai’ is really from R country, then he must have come into contact with ‘Duke’ through some channels, and then he learned ‘point three-three’ from ‘Duke’s’ chess.
Suddenly, Shindo Hikaru's figure flashed in Ta Yaliang's mind again.
Could it be Shindo?
No!
uncertain!
There are other possibilities!
Mr. Ogata also used the three-three starting point in the game. Although he did not use it many times, he left a deep impression on people in every game.
It is also possible that White found inspiration from Mr. Ogata's game.
right!
That must be it!
That’s right!
The white chess piece cannot be Shindou, that guy is not as powerful as the white chess piece!
