In Go, because Black has the first-mover advantage, he is bound to have a certain advantage in the layout. For the sake of fairness, modern Go rules introduce a tie-kou system, that is, when the number of moves occupied by both sides is finally calculated, Black must deduct six moves.
Half, to offset the preceding child effect.1
Handicap chess does not stick to the head by default. Black will put a few pieces on the board first, and then White will move next. Therefore, when handing a piece of chess, the transferee will take the lead and Black will move first, and the end game will not stick to the head.
Therefore it is also called giving way.
As a matter of course, Miyazaki 6th Dan waited for Xie Yi to make the first move with black, but Xie Yi sat motionless, not knowing what he was waiting for. Miyazaki 6th Dan was proud of his status and did not say anything to urge him. He just sat in silence with a graceful smile.
.
Only Sun Suhe raised his eyebrows. He finally understood what Xie Yi meant by "conditional chess" before. Everyone present would have misunderstood. Giving up one piece was right. The question was who gave up to whom. Xie Yi
He was confidently waiting for Miyazaki 6th Dan to make the first move.
After about twenty seconds, no one made a move. Xie Yi nodded solemnly and calmly broke the silence and said, "I understand, I am too conservative. There is no suspense for one child, but it is easy for two children to win. Just let
It’s really not interesting to play with one stone, so I’m going to challenge you, let’s give it to two stones. Although there is pressure, it will definitely be a good game.”
As she spoke, she took out two black stones from the chess box on the side and placed them for Miyazaki Six Dan. On the blank chessboard, the two black stones were suddenly placed on the two diagonal star positions 2 in the lower left corner and the upper right corner.
Xie Yi himself picked up a white chess piece and hit it hard on the lower right corner of the 3 position, causing a crisp sound that resounded throughout the chess room.
"Let's get started, can you follow me, Sixth Dan?"
Before Mr. Akutagawa could translate, Director Miyazaki 6th Dan and Hirano's expressions changed and they frowned.
Once two chess players sit in front of the chess board, before they place any stones, they must first pay attention to it. The game method suitable for both sides represents the difference in chess strength between them. This is the chess share, also known as hand combination.
Without considering the purpose, the hands of two chess players of equal strength are combined to "split first", that is, both sides take turns holding black.
The next level is "first phase first", the first hand holds black, then white, then black, three rounds of rotation.
Once again, it's "definitely the first", always make the first move with black.
Again, "two first, first", the first hand is black, then the second is black, and then the black is the first, and the three games alternate.
And so on, two first, second, second son, two, three, two, three, two, three, third son...
At the same time, according to the tradition of Japanese Go, when the game records of both parties show that Party A wins more than Party B's four games, Party B can be "downgraded". When A meets B in the future, Party B must use the next-level move.
The matchup.
Chess status can be said to be the life-long honor and disgrace of a professional chess player. There have been countless grievances and entanglements surrounding chess status. There is a famous chess anecdote. At that time, Kitani Minoru was demoted in the promotion and relegation game against the chess master Wu Qingyuan.
, Jiuduan was so ashamed and humiliated that the two friends did not communicate with each other for more than ten years.
In the past, it was generally believed that one piece was worth three steps, and that nine-dan professional ranks could give three pieces to the first level of a career. However, due to the increasing professionalization of Go, there are more and more players, and their strength is getting stronger, and the gap between professional ranks is gradually narrowing.
Nowadays, it is normal for young geniuses born out of the blue to be superior to others, and even the ninth dan would not dare to give up to the second eldest son of the first dan.
Therefore, Xie Yi's move is almost an insult to a professional sixth-dan provocation. To use a more slang word to describe it, it is no less than standing in front of the other party seriously and saying "Hey, I'm you"
grandfather".
If it weren't for a young girl who made such a provocation, and if it was not a hindrance to Director Hirano's face, Miyazaki would have walked away on the spot no matter how well-mannered he was.
"President Sun, translator..." Akutagawa Ryuya didn't know much about Go, but he also saw that there seemed to be something wrong with Xie Yi's words.
"Translate for her truthfully." Sun Suhe said. He smiled bitterly in his heart. No wonder Xie Yi had been vague when talking about "conditions" before. She just begged herself to agree to facilitate this game. It turned out that what she wanted was to let her
Erzi challenges a professional sixth-dan player. If she really wins this round, there is no doubt that she will be a blockbuster, like a thunder on the ground, enough to shake all rules aside. However, she really has the strength to match this confidence.
?
Maybe this should no longer be called self-confidence, but should be called arrogance, a game of chess that is so arrogant that it has no limits. Being in this battle, Sun Suhe's blood seemed to be heating up. He secretly made up his mind that no matter what happened today,
The reason why this game was promoted was not only because Xie Yi had already been promised, but also because he intuitively felt that missing such a game would be an unspeakable regret, and he wanted to witness the result of this battle with his own eyes.
After listening to Akutagawa Ryuya's translation, the smile that Miyazaki 6th Dan had always hung on his lips quietly faded away. He frowned and looked at Hirano Hideo. He needed an explanation.
At this time, Director Hirano was also confused and confused about the situation. But after all, he had rich experience in dealing with things. After nodding to Miyazaki 6th Dan to express his comfort, he smiled and said to Sun Suhe, "President Sun, is there any misunderstanding? You may not
I know very well the meaning of handicap in Go.”
Sun Suhe knew the meaning very well. He smiled and pretended to be dumbfounded and said, "Is there any problem? This kid of mine is very powerful."
Director Hirano suddenly rolled his eyes in his heart. Really, I really don’t know how high the sky is. No matter how powerful he is, giving him two sons is too ridiculous. After all, Miyazaki Hideki is a professional sixth-dan, so giving him two sons? The strongest Yuta Inoue in Japan today is probably ninth-dan.
He didn't dare to say such nonsense. He didn't even know what to say for a moment.
Oh, here we come, just in time. Sun Suhe smiled inwardly and looked up at the door. A few seconds later, he saw Owada waiting at the door. A staff member of the chess academy knocked on the door and came in, holding a document and asking Director Hirano to sign it. It turned out that
Sun Suhe had already ordered Owada to implement the $100,000 sponsorship as soon as possible. At this moment, the money has already arrived in the Nippon Chess Academy's account. As long as the internal process is completed, the sponsorship will be officially completed.
"I'm sorry." Director Hirano apologized and picked up the document and quickly glanced at it. He felt very happy after taking a look at it. He looked at Miyazaki 6th Dan and said with a smile, "Everyone, I'm sorry, please wait a moment.
I’ll go out to handle some official business in a moment and I’ll be back soon.”
He took the documents and stood up to go out. Before leaving, he winked at Miyazaki Rokudan. Miyazaki Rokudan naturally understood and found an excuse to go to the bathroom and followed him out.
"Director Hirano, isn't this nonsense? What is going on? Who are those two people?"
"I don't know either."
"have no idea?"
"I was introduced by a friend. We met for the first time today to discuss sponsorship and cooperation."
"Then this game...they are Chinese, don't they understand the rules of Go?"
"Not necessarily Chinese. President Sun's parent company is a multinational company. Maybe they are Chinese from the United States or Europe. Maybe that little girl really has no rivals in their local area. Hey, I have been abroad all these years.
Run, I’ve seen a lot of frogs in the well like this.”
"What about this game of chess? Do I really want to accompany them in their mischief?"
…
In the game room, Xie Yi's eyes never left the chessboard. Perhaps it was because of his trust in Sun Suhe, or perhaps because from the moment she made the move, everything except the chess piece had nothing to do with her. Sun Suhe waved to Yamada.
He took out his checkbook, signed a check for one thousand dollars, handed it to him, and gave him a few instructions.
A few minutes later, Director Hirano shook hands with Owada with a smile on his face, and then handed the signed documents to the staff. After the others left, he put his arm around Miyazaki 6th Dan's shoulders and put Son Suhe's check into Miyazaki's pocket.
Six sections of pocket.
"I know it's too unfair for you to accept the second son, but this is not a formal game. You accept the game fee first. Think of it as a performance for the promotion of Go, so that they can see the profoundness of Go.
