[Yeah! She really took advantage of Xinbao's bad condition to steal a few games and thought she was lucky! With her current condition, it's only a matter of time before Xinbao takes revenge on her!]
[My fellow fans, you are just watching the domestic version! Now the Internet is also launching a general campaign! 】
[You haven’t seen how much political correctness the “15-day old Zhao fans” abroad are so aggressive.

[Seeing Rui Zhao lose miserably in the first round of the celebrity tournament, the external situation suddenly reversed! ]
[The rednecks who were previously in a disadvantageous situation are now full of health and mana in an instant. They not only regained their lost territory, but also blocked the door of the liberals! They are ready to launch a general attack after Xiao Lei takes down the [Celebrity]! ]

...Uh no!
Translate the argument? !
Are you guys that serious? ! !
Two days later, on November 11, the day of the second game of the Celebrity Tournament, at the training base of the Jinling Team of the Chinese Weiqi League.
Before the game, Nie Yunyi saw that the Xin fan group was unusually lively and couldn't help but take a look. The expression on his face was quite distorted - he always felt that this kind of behavior in the group was like "handing a knife to overseas reactionary forces."
Logically, in the recent Changqi Cup, Nie, the sixth dan, was defeated by Zhao Tianhou, who "sacrificed the pieces first and then slayed the dragon" repeatedly, and the idol Lin Ruixin was eliminated in just 116 moves by the slow chess. It can be said that the old and the young were insulted one by one. In this case, the young players of the Suhu team should applaud Rui Zhao's Waterloo in the first game of the celebrity tournament.
But in fact, when he saw Rui Zhao struggling in vain after being stabbed the day before, Nie Yunyi's mood was very complicated, and he even felt a little gloomy in his heart.
He had thought that Rui Zhao would be defeated, but he did not expect that he would be defeated in such a tragic way.
Mingming is the junior sister of the former celebrity Tianyuan and flying knife expert. Last year, she relied on flying knives to almost crush everyone and made it to the challenger finals. She finally defeated Lei Qi in a fierce battle. After that, she easily crushed Ni Jue like in two friendly matches and took over the title of [Celebrity].
As a result, when he faced the challenger again this year, he specially performed the Ni Dao transformation named after his senior brother, but he was hit by the opponent's flying knife. The momentum that had already reached its peak fell immediately, and the previous praises almost instantly turned into doubts, rushing towards the Chinese celebrity Zhaojun! This made Xiao Nie 6th Dan a little worried about this female devil.
In his opinion, although Rui Zhao's disrespect for Lin Ruixin was indeed problematic, as a chess player, when it comes to her skills on the board and her contribution to the promotion of Go, Zhaojun is almost impeccable, and she should not be slandered just because she was hit by a flying knife and lost a game of Go.
...Tsk!
No wonder these young people have a bad reputation in the circle! There is indeed a reason...
Thinking of this, little Nie Miao criticized his fellow enthusiasts mercilessly in his heart.
fine……
Judging from the live broadcast, she seems to be in pretty good shape! She hasn't been affected at all! She should still have a chance to win today...
……
...Uh no!
I, I, I...
Why do I keep hoping that she can win? ! ! !
Xiao Nie Liuduan, who had been secretly relieved, suddenly realized that his stance as the leader of the famous queen's black fans seemed to be problematic!
This outrageous feeling is just like being a die-hard fan of a "thriving" game for an entire game, and then suddenly finding out that you are Xiao Nei amidst the scoldings of the rebels!
However, Nie Yunyi is just like his idol, a flexible person. After his brain short-circuited for two seconds, he immediately started to defend himself.
I'm definitely not on her side!
I, I just hope that she loses to me and Brother Ruixin, so that she can become a stepping stone for our comeback. I don't, I don't wish her the best!
Yes! That's it!
Little Nie Miao defended himself in his heart while subconsciously touching his philtrum. However, just as he was still struggling in his heart, he heard Hua Ran raise his voice in the live broadcast of [Go Xiao Zhao] in front of him and began to explain the chess game:
"...Okay! The game has already started, let's get into the game.
"Both sides started with a star-shaped eye against two consecutive stars. Black's chess piece was guarding the corner in the lower right corner, while White's chess piece was flying in the upper right corner. Both sides quickly played a pointy top and a jump pattern that existed before the emergence of AI...
"Well, unlike the extremely aggressive play in the first game, both sides played more steadily this time.
"After that, Lei Qi, the ninth dan, hung in the upper left corner. Sister Rui Zhao thought for a moment and chose to break away and force the upper right. Lei Qi, the ninth dan, quickly and actively chose to force. "And seeing that Lei Qi, the ninth dan, made the first move, Sister Rui Zhao did not hesitate at all!
"In the 14th move, the white piece flies into the corner, and the two-five points are scored!"
...
...
Twenty-five invasion points...
A very common method...
At the same time, in the chess lecture room of the South Korean Chess Institute.
Xiao Shangsaka, who was listening to the explanation of Liu Shixian and Jin Youen on the stage, muttered something in his heart, frowning, and it can be seen that he was not in a very good mood at the moment.
As for the reason, it was naturally because her idol and role model Rui Zhao lost the first game in the first round of the Chinese Celebrity Tournament the day before yesterday.
Although Ko Uesaka rarely pays attention to the Internet and social media since he was further encouraged by Rui Zhao after the eighth round of the Chinese Weiqi League, the three-game match between Lei Qi and Rui Zhao can be said to be a hot topic at the global level. You can hear a lot of people talking about it without having to pay special attention to it. Therefore, the Japanese rising star is also aware that his main player is currently at an absolute disadvantage in the public opinion field.
However, although winning and losing in Go is normal - especially Rui Zhao has lost many times to Lei Qi in slow chess in the past two years, Xiao Shangsaka still has doubts.
Others may not know, but the members of the Pohu team who often hang out with Rui Zhao know very well that Rui Zhao has often spent time studying the layout on his own in the past year, and it is obvious that he has made some special preparations. According to Yang Manjing's inference, it is very likely to be the flying knife!
Ko Uesaka, who has always been at odds with the Chinese Queen Mulan, also agreed with this conclusion - Rui Zhao usually likes to practice and review with others to improve training efficiency. If he has to study something alone, it is most likely his best guess.
But this time, Rui Zhao's performance in the first game of the Meijin Tournament made Uesaka Rei, who had been looking forward to it for a long time, a little confused: she took the initiative to play the Ni Dao variation, but in the 25th move, she suddenly avoided the knife... What's going on? !
Therefore, for the second game today, Uesaka Rei was increasingly concerned about whether Rui Zhao would use Ni Dao to decide the winner. However, she didn't expect that the layout was still stable, which made Uesaka quite impatient.
Facing this move next, Lei Qi thought about it for a while and chose the sticking and pulling method.
This is a classic test move, and the next move of Black will be determined by White's attitude.
If all the white pieces follow suit, then the black pieces that have strengthened the corners can choose to directly attack the white pieces and take away one piece, forcing the white pieces to retreat.
If the white chess piece goes directly into the corner, the black chess piece will then take advantage of the situation and hit the center of the white chess piece's "two stand and three split" to make the transition.
Regarding the black chess move, Rui Zhao chose to hold it without much hesitation.
Well……
It seems that Sister Rui Zhao still puts the sidelines first!
Uesaka Rei made her own judgment, but her frown did not relax at all.
But isn't this too safe? !
It is too difficult to defeat Lei Qi in a slow chess game by slowly exerting internal strength like this... Eh? !
Just when the young player of Pohu team was feeling pessimistic about the situation, she suddenly discovered that the direction of the game did not develop as she had imagined.
Although the white pieces blocked the black pieces' sticking move, they did not try to fill the gap afterwards, but instead made an aggressive stab at the corner!
This move is not a good one to respond to, otherwise the black pieces will be cut off by the white pieces and there is a risk of being completely blocked in the corner, and Lei Qi will naturally stick to it.
But in the next move, Rui Zhao still failed to make up for it!
In the 20th move, the white chess piece jumped into the position, ignoring the breakpoint on the right, and directly seized the black chess piece's corner - this is a way to force the black chess piece to engage in a chaotic battle!
Seeing this, Xiao Shangzaka instantly became excited!
Although it is now Black's turn to make the first move, and the White pieces on the right are relatively thin, if Rui Zhao plays this way, it is likely that the White pieces will be attacked first.
But after all, the famous Chinese figure Zhaojun is recognized as the most powerful force in the world. Even if facing the current leader of China who holds four titles, as long as she can get into a chaotic battle, it is not unacceptable to get beaten first!
Sure enough, facing the unreasonable tactics of the white chess, Lei Qi immediately clicked in, aiming to split the white chess. Rui Zhao naturally took over.
After that, Black's pieces are placed in a tight spot, which is a critical point for both sides. White 24 turns around and connects with the single piece, which is a double advantage, and it is inevitable that it will move away.
Here, because the white pieces have a sharp cutting method, the black pieces cannot simply block the connection by holding them. After thinking for a while, Lei Qi calmly hits the first option in the three-way route again!
This move kills two birds with one stone: on the one hand, it aims to block the crossing under the tiger, and on the other hand, it aims to grow downward and cooperate with the two pieces on the lower right, taking advantage of the opportunity to create an empty space.
Rui Zhao naturally would not tolerate the black chess piece turning around easily, so he held on to the inevitable, while Lei Qi took advantage of the situation to block the passage!
However, just when the series of AI choices by both sides were smooth and seemed natural, Rui Zhao's next move, which seemed extremely gentle, created a subtle ripple on the entire board.
Move 28...
White chess piece on the second row has a small tip.
After seeing this move, Lei Qi in the live broadcast seemed a little surprised, and then...
This is when the longest period of deliberation in this game began. (End of this chapter)
